5 points for the catchiest refrain in the show, and for being the most pleasant surprise after the official video came out :)

Re: THE 2012 'EXPERT' PANEL - LATVIA

I've decided to give this entry 4 points. My contemplation:

The lyrics of the verses are a bit simple. 'Cheesy' is not the right word, I think. But I've seen and heard songs with lyrics way worse (and far simpeler) than this, there are just countless examples of them ('Hop onto my ship baby, I'll make you fly' = good example of cheesiness).
(Result: Minus 0.5 points)

The melody of the chorus is quite a find. One of the most original this year. And the most wonderful thing is that the music tones of most of the lines are going down instead of up, but the overall song remains catchy and uplifting. This is quite unique.

This song sounds like a experimental piece of music, it has an innovative quality to it. That cannot exactly be said of so many other entries. My opinion.
Although it's built up of mainly electronic sounds, it sounds original. Not the most usual, predictable, generic electro sounds have been used here (unlike for example the Swedish entry)

The new version compared to the old version has some additions that I don't like (result: Minus 0.5 points)

-I don't know what it is they added between 0:57 and 1:00. Space/carnaval/kindergarten sounds. It sounds childish (und superfluous).
-I don't like the additions from 1:40 (guitar-esque sounds)


total: 5 minus 2 x 0.5 points = 4 points.

Agree with Dajana. "Treba mi doktor" after this beautiful song :lol:. But I'll be generous and give her 1 point :D

The "Angry Mob" results are in and this is how the vote's gonna work.

The 2 ranking with the highest amount of votes will be combined, divided by two and added to the Score.

If the top ranking vote wins by a landslide (10%) or more then only the top score will get counted.


So how did the Angry Mob vote?

5 Points = 12.90%
4 Points = 19.35%
3 Points = 23.66%
2 Points = 13.98%
1 Point = 17.20%
0 Points = 12.90%

Angry Mob Score: 3.5

:lv: Final Score: 16 + 3.5 = 19.5

Re: THE 2012 'EXPERT' PANEL - CROATIA

Hmmm this song is average and agree with the panel that it's forgettable. I'd give it a 2.5 if I could but i'll be generous and give it 3. Hell if Latvia can get that high score from the angry mob then most songs should do well lol!

Good going so far Matt! Are you putting the score next to each country in the main/original post so it's like a ranking of the songs so far this year? :-)

Lithuania next? Oooooh this will almost definitely go lower than most...
