you are welcome, and i cant believe people actually this... slovenia is heating up of discontent :) LOL

It's pleasant and has a country feel to it that I appreciate. It's not a grand song and may end up similar to what we witnessed in 2014 but but I can't complain.

This sounds a lot like Something In The Water by Carrie Underwood. Nowhere near as good though xcry

I didn't listen to the winner, but went through some songs:

-"Summer Story": typical American sh*t summer tune, song for B movies. Nothing to save in this one.

-"Crno Bel": "Love Injected" inspiration is clearly noticeable, the verses are kind of non-eventful though, there's not much happening. The chorus is good, but there's no overall build-up as time goes on, had it won it would have needed a revamp imo.

-"Tip Top": Gosh, that was so dated, early 00's are back. The performance was weak, and it stood absolutely zero chances to do well in Eurovision.

-"Tales of tomorrow": what was it again? bland song, nothing to write home about.

I'm sadly not confident about the winner from your comments ("wannabe", "Taylor Swift" and "repetitive" are references I'm not fond of at all). Therefore Slovenia may disappoint me for the first time since 2010 (2013 was ok-ish).

honestly, last year, i didnt like italy much, but i did feel they were robbed of their victory. however, this year, if italy stays with the song the singer sang at SanRemo, I think they have good chances of winning it. the best song so far in my opinion, though Poland was my favorite so far - but now i cringe when i think that margaret sounds horrible live... i dont even dare to look up the video of her performance this morning :p

You shouldn't then.
I was so frightened of what the outcome would be.
I'm deaf forever...

Tuorem, please, be gentle with us. Dont use too harsh words of truth :) I think Slovenians are already aware of the disaster EMA 2016 was :)

Is really that bad? But the commentators from Poland were saying she was a good live singer... Okey, now, I will not look it up. But I still love the studio version... Nothing can cool me down... :)

I didn't "review" the winner yet :lol: I'll do it in time when the grand final ends in May.
and you know: "spare the rod and spoil the child". I criticize strongly because I feel like those songs weren't that good, and Slovenia got me used to quality, hence I had high expectations. I'm harsh because I loved you most of the time since 2009 xheart

But one thing that I am ashamed of confessing, cuz I respect you... I really liked Žan Serčič hahaha. Most likely my gay sexual orientation is to be blamed since he was so damn cute :)

On the other hand, please, be my guest, I was actually hoping you would hit us hard with the words of truth - i am in the right mood for a bit of mazochistic pain after such a disappointing nigth :)

I do admit though, ManuElla is a fantastic live singer. Her performance makes her look like a Slovene Taylor Swift.

For the rest of the ESC season I'll call her MozzarElla, since she's just as bland as that tasteless cheese
