Re: PORTUGAL 2017

I feel the same... I had really high hopes for this semifinal, I was working today and I keept thinking 'can't wait for later tonight...'
Maybe one day we can have a FdC as good as we deserve...


In 50 years we will have... trust me!!

In 50 years we will have a good FdC. Good enough for 2017.

hahaha

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

Guys, you only need 1 good song (imho you already found one :D). Lets wait for the second semi before our final judgement. And even IF next week sucks...there will come a day that everything will be better for you, sooner or later it will happen :)

RTP is so lost in time it hurts. It's literally like they are trapped in the 1990s when it comes to Eurovision. I can't believe they can produce The Voice so well, and yet they can't find a good and modern team to be our delegation for the ESC. How is it possible that our delegation goes to Eurovision every year, sees how the show is done and how the entries are, and come back to Portugal and delulde themselves that they're trying their best?
I hope our entire delegation gets fired and completely replaced with people that aren't trapped 30 years ago. Hoenstly, even these ridiculous medleys that's happening right now as an interval act show RTP's mentality. They do this every year, in the SFs and the Final.

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

By the way, the hosts are always saying the votes are very close. It's probably because they only have 50 votes or something :lol:

When does voting close?! It's been nearly an hour since the songs finished...

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

This was painful. The only song that deserves that name is number 7 (Sobral). But it won't stand a chance among portuguese voters.

Babe, calm down ok? It was a joke! And yeah Krista song is far more modern than any of these songs. The problem with FdC is that the songs aren't modern enough. They always seem to go flat. And like I said A MILLION times I want something modern with a Portuguese twist.

And yes... Krista is modern.

So I guess that...

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

Well the next show only starts at 11.43PM, so it might take a while.

Oh lummy. I may have to go to bed before then :p

I'm sorry, but if that trash and that pointless jumping on the stage like in circus (cheap one) is modern, I skip being modern! :lol:

Salvador FTW!! xlove xheart

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

I think the only chance Portugal's got is what the Netherlands did. Select internally a famous artist with a good song. Only after we'd get some good results and the popularity of the contest rises, should we try a NF again.

Do you know, if any of the popular artists in Portugal is interested in taking part in ESC? If some of the big names wrote songs for FdC this year, then why cant RTP just chose any of them internally? I have heard some of the writers/artists are really good when it comes to their own songs. Though Im afraid RTP (i dont trust them actually) would advise the selected artist to write a typical FdC-song :lol:

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

Flashbacks of people commenting on ESC Portugal's page "I have a feeling this year FdC will be like Eesti Laul" are coming back to me and nearly making me die of laughter :lol:

A few have said they wouldn't mind taking part. I do think that could happen though, RTP maybe would force them to send something simple and old-fashioned instead of what they usually work with. In that case, they would probably say no.

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

I like Portuguese ESK fans; you remind me of the UK ones with all this negativity and pessimism around your National Final xlove

Yeah. I can imagine RTP selecting Ana Malhoa.

And then we would get all hyped about it and she would come off with something like Georgia 2016.
