Russia RUSSIA 2019 - Sergey Lazarev - Scream

[JonnyWest]

It looked scary

Well, that a lot of Sergeys at once is a bit cringey and sad. I wish they didn't ruin the song with performance.

 

[mauve]

Same here. Expected a completely different staging. The song is still good and the staging probably memorable, nevertheless ...

 

[randajad]

I expected something more video inspired, something more theatrical. Surprised, but not disappointed, tbh.

 

[popavapeur]

this is an impressive hot mess but sure it's entertaining

 

[Leydan]

I quite agree with you all I guess. I expected it to be more theatrical, it would have suited the song. Instead by the looks of it they've gone for something quite modern looking by taking Lucie Jones mirror LED shell thing, making it twice as big. Idk how I feel about Sergey being copied and pasted several times over. Any way, I'm sure the whole thing will look better than that snippet.

Narcissism never wins Eurovision. That's all.

And also...

 

[BorisBubbles]

neither sang with 19 copies of themselves though.

I feel the same. I didn't like "You''re the only one", because for me it was too perfect and unnatural. When they released this song I was surprised very nice, a music video is really good, but I feel cryingy again. Sergey singing moves are for me a little bit... weird? And we have multiple version of it on the stage.

Overall - it's average for me and not worth to vote for it. I am a fan of Russia on Eurovision, but I prefer when they send girls, t.A.T.u., Polina, Serebro and even Julia from last 2 years Their male singers are just meh.

Next.

What is narcissistic about M°ans, though?

Maybe not really Måns himself, but the Swedish delegation's arrogant attitude during that year when Måns' entry won is. Even if I like Måns and his entry as a whole, but this was the beginning of SVT's recent approach toward Eurovision with its new trend of sending cocky entries until this year.

Russia at least had Mamo, Lost and Forgotten, and the Babushki's as their more genuine entries after Dima's victory.

Me @ Russia

Well, based on your point, what happens after you win Eurovision is not an anti-argument to "Narcissism never wins Eurovision". None of us are future-sighted.

OTT AND TACKY??????


Is this dedicated to me or sth

 

[Carian]

I am not disappointed. I like it, and let us wait to see how this will look on screen. I bet Sergey already checked out everything by himself back home in Russia. Probably Israelis got instructions written down down to miliseconds what to do down and when to do what hahaha.

 

[JohnyKaz]

This is kind of underwhelming but it's not bad. I expected and wanted the staging to have a fairytale theme like the video clip. I will not judge him though until I see the second rehearsal and how it looks on TV.

 

[Sammy]

So they try to do him a wet-shirt contest. Honestly?! But hey - you got Mr. Eye candy - use it! Fair enough.

 

[RainyWoods]

The staging sure is..... something, but not what I expected from this song. I thought it would be darker with a fantasy theme like that of the music video. I think one Sergey is enough for us all. A small army of Sergeys dressed from top to bottom in white is a dangerous proposition. I’m curious to see the end result but I’m wondering now if they’ve taken a wrong turn with this one?
