San Marino SAN MARINO 2016 - Serhat - I Didn't Know

[ShoeFlo]

I guess it would be less ridicolous with a better fitting singer but it would still be very cheesy and bland. Now it is just hilarious Melody isn't actually bad.

Seems like San Marino once again tries to be on same level in Eurovision as they are in football

 

[BarefootBoogaloo]

The music is the only reason I'm giving this a 2

Between the singing, the lyrics, and the music video it feels like the type of song Jafar would have sung to Jasmine while hypnotizing her with his staff.

Please don't compare the hard working plumbers of the San Marino National Football Team to this.

seeing you guys disliking it,makes me want to like it even more

 

[Cyberbliss]

Embarrassing.

 

[Sochiara]

This is so bad, but for some reason I can't hate it. Maybe because it's ridiculously entertaining... Well done, San Marino 3

 

[Musicosity]

The song may even be acceptable. For some reason they seem to go after the votes of the 60+ year olds. Ok, if they think so ... but this video? :?

Don't think so.
If San Marino would perform too early, they'd crash and burn in this semi-final imo.

Sweet lord above. It sounds like a song that would be on Amanda Lear's "Brief Encounters" record. Thank you Serhat. It is everything I could have asked for and more. When I heard this gentleman's voice for the first time, I knew he was capable of something incredibly rich, deep and sensual. "I Didn't Know" is incredible. I find the whole thing a rather surreal experience, both the song and the music video. So dark and beautiful. A sumptuous treat that I will hear time and time again. I've got to say i'm addicted to this song already. My life has been enriched.

I didn't know that i'm falling for you
And my dreams could come true
I didn't know that you're warm like the sun
Our life has just begun
I didn't know you're the one for me
I thought i'd never find
I didn't know that you wish for the moon
To provide me the light



That's 5 years in a row now I have adored the Sammarinese Eurovision entry. Gosh, this one is up there at the very top for sure. It's sensational. So delighted right now. I didn't know that San Marino would be my number 1 this year, but for the moment it's happened.

That is by far, the worst entry in the contest.

There are so many things wrong with it: this guy was never much of a singer, but the composer didn't even try to fit his song to his voice. The lyrics are incredible cheesy, even by Eurovision standards, the production sounds dated, once again, even by what we expect from this contest. It's boring as hell with no surprises, turns, twists, anything.

But the worst is that it doesn't even have ambition: I have hear several bad songs this year, but at least I could see what they were trying to aim for. They failed but at least they try to aim high, even if in the end those songs lacked talent, production or taste. I don't see any kind of oversight with this: I can't imagine a producer listening to this, and thinking, "yep, this is as good as is going to get". Or maybe it is, what makes this thing even sadder.

0 points, not even work as a "so bad it's good": it's just bad.

'He is talking, not singing' => fits in the mood of the song!

I find this neither bad nor charmingly troll. It's just an awesome song. Easy 12.

Re: SAN MARINO 2016 - Serhat

I've got a strong feeling that the song of Sehat won't be in my bottom-10. Cannot explain why tbh. But I think so.

I bet it's in your top 10

 

[Musicosity]

They will do so anyway. I wonder how strong the 60+ group is at all.

But then again, San Marino is just clever. They don't have the money to host, but they can keep the attention on them high with those little "scandals". What are the stats about San Marino's tourism business since Valentina's arrival?

They increased this by 1451564%!

Maybe he will be joined by Frans with the winning recipe this year.

 

[Brandt]

I've read everyone is cursing the song on FB and other Eurovision forums. Is that really even worse than Euro Neuro?
