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

[Ritararita]

From wiwibloggs article 8 misheard lyrics of Eurovision 2016:

What we heard: “I got to pee inside your mind”
Correct lyric: “I got to be inside your mind”

You’re thinking, it’s lucky that the visual metaphors of the old “I Didn’t Know” music video didn’t extend to that line about peeing. But then Serhat holds up the fancy bottle full of yellow liquid and suddenly it all makes sense. Terrible, awful sense. The evocative line can be heard at 0:23.

What we heard: “I’ve got to say I am a dick tit”
Correct lyric: “I’ve got to say I am addicted”

A meeting has been called at San Marino Television. Serhat has something to tell the HoD. “Guys, while I did think that the original version of “I Didn’t Know” was perfect, now that I’ve heard the disco remix, well, I have to say I am a dick tit. It’s obviously the superior version and it must go to Eurovision.” The line can be heard at 0:44.

The disco version takes this from creepy man in his apartment to terrible dad dancing at a bowling club dinner - just too special

Changed my vote from 1 point to 6... not one of my favorites this year, but at least a nice song now.

 

[Polux]

It's growing on me! It's funny, it's catchy and makes me wanna dance aaall night! I think it may be possible for San Marino to qualify for the final.

 

[arlekino]

I don't understand the hate for this entry. I don't think it's that bad.

Exactly!
It's different at least.

 

[Kairit]

I'm a bit disappointed. It lost it's fantastically odd charm... Now it's just a bad really dated disco track. Oh well, I guess I'll embrace it. We need some disco.

 

[Quent91]

Definitely San Trollino.

 

[DanielLuis]

Congratulations San Marino, worst entry in the contest for the second year in a row! And lol at people saying this qualify to the final, they will be lucky to score 5 points

 

[Sammy]

This reminds me - in a very trashy way - of "army of lovers". funtastic! entries like this are the reason i enjoy eurovision so much.

 

[CatEye]

Italian version

 

[GianlucaTomoe]

^ They shouldn't have bothered, really. What San Marino, which is an Italian-speaking country, does with their awful entries and the various versions of their entries, is offending our culture, our style, our reputation as "country of classy music".

 

[CatEye]

Poor san marino, surrounded only with snobs

 

[Jasi]

I came to this thread to see that a few weeks ago I actually gave this song 8 points on the poll?????
Whaaat was wrong with me? I have probably still been in a rush because I enjoyed it too much
Gonna change it to a 7 now

Btw. I'm still not sure which version I prefer. I really miss the music video

I totally agree I gave Serhat twice the amount of points that I have ever given Valentina, and I will never give him more, whatever language he is singing in. I think Italy should occupy San Marino with love at least until the end of the year. We have a lot of Solders of love here in Denmark and I am sure that Italy can borrow the most of them!!

 

[CaspianMortis]

This song is quite possibly the funniest and weirdest entry ever, and not in a good way for me. If this qualifies for the finals, I'll be shocked.

 

[Nikkita]

My Q for Serhat: Do you think you can get any jobs in Turkey after this?

 

[cassio]

By your description of the song it sounds as it actually belongs in the final :?

 

[CaspianMortis]

It's not the "good funny" kind, it's more like the "so lolwut did I just watch horribly terrible that it's funny" kind.
