Re: ROMANIA 2019

There are Rumours that Bella Santiago will compete with a Latino-Banger. Hope its true.



It seems that this Rumours are true.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Romania doesn't offer anything which I would consider to be a masterpiece or a bop this time but I also believe that Romania provides many decent choices which could lead to another "sure" qualification again.

Personally, I like 2 Gents the most, followed by Ester Peony, Laura Bretan and Trooper.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Are people serious with Trooper? This is another safe NQ. Romania is no Rocknation.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Mihai's song is an outdated song in which he obviously copies Shakira.. The song belongs to the year 2003-2004 sang by a skimpy dressed bimbo. There. I said it.

I heard a 15 seconds snippet of Bella's song. It's an uptempo pop song that gave me chills.

This is the snippet. This is a bop that will rock the stage. Damn, her voice is awesome.

Avoid this Laura gimmick song at all costs.

Nothing crazy here on first sight, need live to make up my favorite. Some nice potential tho

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Really not a fan of the Mihai song, his voice totally ruins it for me - at least in the studio version. I feel like it should be something i'd enjoy, but i just can't stand his voice. Another singer and I think i'll be xheat'ing at this. Also, don't get me started on that Laura Bretan song, overlooking her weak grasp of english/strong accent even in the studio. This literally couldn't get anymore esc if it tried and I totally eye roll at it, especially where she goes a little operatic. Also, Belgium 2014 calls they want their song back.

Now, what does Ashley like, pray tell?

I'm lowkey feeling kinda partial for that trooper song. I lose interest at the end though tbh, Cyprus 2016 does it better. I quite like the 2 Gents song also, Teodora Dinu song is nice also, as is the song from Steam, it has a nice beat. Although I think i'm throwing my support to The Four though (lowkey expecting this to look a mess live tho) and Nicola to win this NF. One of them would do nicely.


Alos, Claudiu Mireas song reminds me of the UK entry in 2016. :'D Just changed around a little bit.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

I'm still not feeling any song tbh :/ I guess I will be convinced by one when they'll be performed live, hopefully :"D

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Happy new year to you too [MENTION=12196]Mrm[/MENTION]xlove


I've got to admit though that I'm not particularly feeling this song by Laura Bretan. The mixture of pop vocals and opera isn't doing much for me. It doesn't work and is kind of dull. My favourites are Baya, Make Me Your Man and Underground. I think it's probably now or never for a Mihai return. He's as equipped as he'll ever probably be this year, and I think his song could be well received. Jesus will just have to be involved when it comes to general styling and presentation of the entry to prevent any potential car crash from happening. His song is very much the bop though. Super catchy. Has been in my head since I first heard it.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Also, I forgot how thrilling and fun an experience it is to google image search the name "Mihai Traistariu". What a life this man has lived. Instagram selfie superstar, documented hair transplants, accidental nudes. This man has done it all. I'm team M I H A I all the way. We need this superstar back at Eurovision. He's such a character.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

It looks like the Lineup is not complete. Probably 2 Entries will be added.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Laura Bretan is going to Tel Aviv. The lyrics are a little cheesy, but the arrangement and that voice is literally everything Romania need to qualify. Never thought Birdy combining with opera would work, but it does pretty well here. :D

Re: ROMANIA 2019

Yes, she will most likely win. And I think a Top10 is also very likely.

Re: ROMANIA 2019

This selection is unfortunately not that strong, but thankfully, its still not the worst one so far.

I listened to all the songs several times and this would be my top 10 list:
1. Laura Bretan - "Dear Father"
2. Olivier Kaye - "Right Now"
3. 2 Gents - "Ielele"
4. Steam - "The Way It Goes"
5. Teodora Dinu - "Skyscraper"
6. The Four - "Song of My Heart"
7. Xandra - "Independent"
8. Echoes - "High Heels On"
9. Ester Peony - "On a Sunday"
10. Nicola - "Weight of The World"

Dear father is easily the best song out of this selection. I would put a big gap between that song and all the others.
