Slovenia SLOVENIA 2016 - ManuElla - Blue and Red

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

So far I have the full mp3s of 6 songs.
Nuša song is a schlager bond song about a tip top lady... Frankly I don't know what to think of it, it's like Albania's song from 2010 had a one night stand with Rise Like a Phoenix.
Sebastijan's song is far my favorite. Raiven's song will be played on the radio later today, then I will also get a mp3 of that one.

I like Raiven's voice and it could do well on ESC but the song is too similar to 2015 xdown

But on the bright side, it doens't seem to be any where near as screechy and the lyrics are also miles better than those of the penetration anthem.

No, I made them myself and so far I haven't seen the songs uploaded anywhere. I have them on my google drive, so PM me and I'll give you the links

what time are the radio presentations?

Two songs each day. One song is played at 8.45, the other at either 16.05 or 16.45.
However not all songs were played on shedule. The songs from San di Ego, Manuella and Anja Baž were played at a different time, which is why I can't find them on the radio rez from val 202.

Nuša Bond

tick tock "she will set you on fire"


Žan is not bad but not outstanding. It won't grab me by the balls & make me voting like there's no tomorrow.
Anja Kotar - wanted to chant "I looove rock'n'roll" (Britney's version) in the end.
Sebastijan - the best country entry this ESC season but a lil' bit risky for ESC if you care about results.

My choice would be Sebastijan or Nuša.

Which is not a bad thing at all, of course

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

It's similar to Love injected, but it's way less screechy, less repetitive, half of the song doesn't consist of oh-oh-ohs and most important of all the lyrics don't make me cringe, since they're not about how much she loves getting the D inside of her. In other words it lacks most things that bothered me about that song [/unpopularopinion]

I have listened to Sebastijan song full and I like it but as Aleks said I don't know if european people will vote for it.

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

I didn´t find songs from San Di Ego and ManuElla, but everyone else I listened to.

So, I have to say that my impression is a bit better than during the snippets.

Songs that actually ended up sounding much better than I thought they were are "Summer story" and (quite surprisingly) "Tip Top".
Žan´s song definitely has a nice hook, while Nuša´s song (despite being outdated) does contain quite an energy and opens up a lot of space for a powerful vocal and stage performance, that could increase its chances. It´s kinda like Bojana effect from last year, and Nuša (being a veteran) can pull it off.
I still like the song from Raiven, but that second part where that beat kicks in, does sound very underwhelming. That kinda sucks, because I do see a lot of potential in that song. If it wins by any chance, it MUST get some sort of a revamp. All the others, unfortunately, still don´t do anything for me.

I will still root for Raiven, but I honestly and definitely believe now that Žan and Nuša will be the superfinalists.

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

Nuša came second last night at Slovenska Popevka, with a much much much better song

[MENTION=13993]Yazy[/MENTION] No way will we have a "powerful stage performance". Our delegation never invests a cent into that. And a Bojana effect also won't happen, since we don't have a diaspora that would push us into the final.

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

My personal ranking on the left:
and in brackets on the right are chances of reaching the final (my prediction)

1-D Base "Spet živ" (5%)
2-San Di EGO "Brez tebe" (5%)
3-Anja Kotar "Too Cool" (30%)
4-Žan Serčič "Summer Story" (100%)
5-Raiven "Črno bel (80%)
6-Sebastijan Lukovnjak "Tales of Tomorrow" (50%)
7-ManuElla "Blue and Red" (5%)
8-Nuša Derenda "Tip Top" (10%)
9-Anja Baš "What If" (15%)
10-Regina "Alive in Every Way" (0%)

So I think the best thing we can do is: Žan and Raiven in the superfinal

Thanks again for the links CatEye

I have the radio-rip of all songs. I'll send you a PM and if anyone else is interested, just contact me. RTVSLO won't release them online before the NF.

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

Summer story is the obvious choice, maybe the only possible one. You know what to do

Re: SLOVENIA 2016

Ok. My opinion now that I heard to all songs a few times. My original opinion slightly imrpoved, but it's still quite underwhelming. I really like 3 songs, and I have a hard time picking my winner.

Really good
1- Sebastijan Lukovnjak "Tales of Tomorrow" - let's hope that he has some charisma while he performs
1- Raiven "Črno bel - I tihnk this would be the best choice. It stands out and she is a good singer.
3- San Di EGO "Brez tebe" I really like this. Probably wouldn't do wel at ESC and I highly doubt they'll make it to the superfinal, but I do think this can become a radio hit here.

O.K.
4- Žan Serčič "Summer Story" - a song that goes into one ear and comes out of the next one. I doubt it will be memorable.

Not a fan of this
5- Anja Kotar "Too Cool" - she is overdoing it in chorus and it becomes really annoying
6- Nuša Derenda "Tip Top" - UGH. WHY?! It's dated, it's cheap, it has stupid lyrics and it would flop big time at ESC.


Very dull
7- ManuElla "Blue and Red" Doesn't go anywhere
8- Anja Baš "What If" Doesn't go anywhere

Really bad
9- Regina "Alive in Every Way" - Yikes. This is embarrassing. The part when she sings " alive alive" reminds me of Allein, Allein. Her new songs simply aren't suitable for her voice
10- D Base "Spet živ" - It's like the slovene version of Teenage life(UK 2006), just instead of teenage girls you have a guy who sounds like his balls haven't dropped yet....
