I expected something beyond awful for San Marino after all those hateful comments but I don't get it at all. Serhat presented his song so well.
Same here, I discovered it tonight, and that was way better than some qualifiers imo. Sometimes I think people can't help trashing Sammarinese entries because it's precisely from there
Composition-wise it seems very rich and interesting, not your standard Melfest-plastic entry, I think I'll enjoy listening to it again while carefully dissecting all the arrangements of it. I must confess Serhat's spoken voice distracted me a little bit, but he was in my top 10 of the semi, one of the most interesting songs tonight imo.
Mugler did a great job staging-wise. Serhat was elegant af in his Burgundy-ish suit, the backing vocalists were on point, the choreography and the angles chosen were interesting, especially at the beginning. Seriously, I can't wait to see what position they got, I don't think this came last either.
