Re: ROMÂNIA - Romania 2011

The selection isn't bad, the problem is that some (or most) of the song lack intensity and sharpness. In the case of Claudia, proper arrangement may work. I feel neutral about this one.
The only song that stood to me was "Change" by Hotel FM. A little bit more intensity, and this song could do very well. :)
Ironically, I liked "My Facebook girl". :oops: :mrgreen: I usually dislike joke songs, but this is discrete and if he shows up on stage sitting on a computer desk with a laptop, lurking at Facebook, well that could and might do really well. Especially because Facebook is now very popular. :)
Dragos' song starts great, but then it looses all the greatness in the chorus. Not sharp enough, too mellow. Otherwise, it would have been my first pick.

I only like Claudia's and Dalma's song, but that's also nothing special. That's my opinion after 1st listening ;)

Based on what I've heard the first time, Hotel FM and Claudia stand out. Claudia's song could enter top 10 with a bit of reworking and the right performance

Caca Maca that means bulls.it :( Plane songs, with no explosion, nothing surprising. I wait to see the live presentation and I hope many will be reorchestred. I like Letitia song. It is the most quality. Then Claudia and Blaxy and then Hotel FM. Dragos Chircu and Bogdan Dima can surprise. The rest is like WTF for me... for the moment. Anyway, I see no final for Romania for the first time this century. :cry:

Re: ROMÂNIA - Romania 2011

I actually find it to be a rather good NF, several songs with potential....

My two favorites are:

DIRECŢIA 5 - "Cinema Love"
HOTEL FM - "Change"

Hope that one of these two songs is going to win. Some other songs I think are really good:

ELENA LETICIA MOISESCU - "Dreaming of You"
DAN HELCIUG - "My Facebook Girl"
DRAGOŞ CHIRCU + ANTHONY IKWUAGWU UCHENNA - "Open Your Eyes"
JAKAB NOEMI, MICIU ELENA, STAMILOIU CRISTINA - "Take Me Down" (surprisingly as this is usually not my style)


So I am actually quite optimistic and hopeful that Romania will send one of those songs.

Re: ROMÂNIA - Romania 2011

Is it just me but isn't many of the songs very americanized to be Romania?! :? Not in a bad way though..even if some of the songs hasn't the right quality for Eurovision IMO..

The best songs is "Dreaming Of You" and "I Want U To Want Me".
First song feels like a song for Avril Lavigne or someone similar, a really nice poprockish guitar-song! :D
The 2nd one is a strong RnB-ballad that feels very modern! :)

The others were pretty dull or just laughable in quality, so I really hope that one of these songs if Romania wants to have a chance in ESC! :)

I like "Open Your Eyes" and "Take Me Down" plus Dalma's song.

Re: ROMÂNIA - Romania 2011

The voices of ,,Open your eyes" where changed. The new singers are Ianna feat. Distinto & Anthony.

With this change this song will be jury favorite and also the televoting will help. It should be considerated the favorite. In this moment my favorite is Leticia. I like and Claudia and I started to like and Blaxy Girls. The trompet helps a lot the song. I also like Bang Bang, but not sure about its live.

Well, it was my 2nd favourite even before the voice was changed + I love Ianna, but It's so fine is the best song from this NF IMO :D
