[EscGeek]

Dear Raay: (i know you're reading this)

What the hell were you three thinking? I mean Raiven deserved the superfinal,but Žan would make all pussies and OGAEYS wet
also,Anja Kotar was so cool for you guys and then you didn't even pick her? xslap


If this reaches the final i owe you a beer

 

[NikkiBoy]

I think after couples of listenings this song is actually getting better. 8 Points for now

100% agree. Apart from the humidity in certain sexual organs, Zan's song was by far the best song of the bunch. It's cheerful in the good way, unlike the chosen song which is cheerful but completely embarrassing. Zan would have been a sure qualifier, this is rather a sure bottom. Seriously, I have no clue what the jury thought to pick those two superfinalists.

They probably thought that MozzarElla has no chance to win, since they wanted Raiven to win. She was the most proffesional of the acts who they thought had no chance to beat Raiven, so they picked her. But in the end the viewers voted for the name, so we now ended with this bimbo who took part in a talent show 4 years ago. This and the Elaiza effect happened, since some people on FB even admitted that they only voted for MozzarElla, cause they didn't want Raiven to win.
You also have to know that the broadcaster killed all interest and the voting numbers are at a record low now.

Also I now heard Carrie Underwood's Something in the water and MozzarElla's song is indeed a rip off. The first half of the song is nearly identical. She should get disqualified. So I'm looking towards her flop even more.

ZzZzZzZz....
Really uninspiring song with horrible lyrics. One of the worst Slovenian songs in quite some time. Sadly.

 

[Hegepege]

The song doesn't get me angry, but it doesn't make me want to send any votes either. if this was a tribute to Nintendos 2oth pokemon Blue&Re anniversary, I would so vote, but... no

 

[VikingTiger]

oh come on, we are not talking anymore about nordic block, we are talking about nordo-baltic block!!! it is actually ridiculous that 10 years ago everyone was talking about ex-soviet union block and ex-yugoslavian block, but right now there is not a single sign of those... only baltic and nordic countries fare well

I just said I agree with you; I think it is an advantage for Norway being part of the "block". I agree that not all countries have an equal starting point. I also said that I agree with you personally about Icebreaker.
But even though I am norwegian, and my country belongs to a block - I think I am entitled to express my opinion on Blue and Red. Without that leeding to a discussion about "block-voting". Last year I really liked the entry from Slovenia, this year I dont.

Why so many people voted against Raiven then? I think she wouldn't probably qualify either, but it would've been a decent choice to avoid the bottom.

 

[Sammy]

After the masterpiece from last year, they send THIS? I'm really disappointed.

 

[Scooby]

No, not my song. Sorry Slovenian brothers but this is really boring

Cause Raiven's song stood out like a sore thumb, it was completely unlike any of the songs you hear at the music festivals organized by RTVSLO. The most loyal viewers of the broadcaster are over 40 years old, they for sure wouldn't vote for it and even some younger viewers considered it "weird", since they are not used to this music. MozzarElla's bland song on the other hand sounds like every other bland song you hear on the radio and on the music festivals from RTVSLO....
Also Raiven would have qualified, the song is a vocal exercise and this year lacks good singers(and good songs), so the juries would give it plenty of points. It also would have gotten a decent amount of televotes in the semi, since it would stand out from the rest. MozzarElla on the other hand will sink like a rock in water. That's one of the good things regarding my country in ESC, when we send crap, it also gets the result it deserves. It may be schadenfreude, but I haven't been looking forward to such a flop since 2006, when we also send a try hard, with a lame song.

Easily the best chosen last night, and still it's 6 points in the poll from me..hmmm let's give 7, be a bit generous..

It is such a let down from last year Slovenian entry, but the level of the season is disaster so for now this is one of the best entries..

Vocally is good and I don't mind dress change in this one..

People are so rough with the Slovene entrant this year...

 

[Jukica]

I'm not impressed with this song :/ I prefer 2014 & 2015, 4 points

 

[Oshawott]

Gave it an 8 in the poll since it's Slovenia but I'm not impressed. :/

You're not impressed but you gave it an 8?

This is SUCH a ripoff of Carrie Underwood - Something In The Water...

totally agreed. and this is not just "inspired", it's a a musical paraphrase of it.

Hum, damn, then we agree on each and every point raised in our debate. Even about our lousy entry this year we agree.
