Jamala: http://vk.com/eurovision_ua?w=wall-1669660_207035


I like that the Hardkiss did it in English and Ukrainian but their song is too depressive, esp for a song about rebirth.
Jamala's entry - quite predictable, maybe even better than expected . I like the 2nd half of the song starting from mugam.

1. NuAngels
2. The Hardkiss and Jamala equally
....
everyone else

Tonya's song: https://soundcloud.com/tonya-matvienko

this is the 1st version. The final version was re-worked & it won't feature the sampled backing vocals.
lol @ Ruslana And this pawned Yana Solomko.
Next time NEVER invite her to the NF. No dogs allowed & Ruslana :|

Re: UKRAINE 2016

I'm delighted. The Hardkiss can suprise - and they did it again. This song is masterpiece for me, but will it have mass appeal? I really want them to try it on ESC stage.

Jamala - masterpiece too. She has equal chances with The Hardkiss and i would like to see her as representer of ours too.

I'm afraid NuAngels with their catchy, but Swedish music (nothing new on esc stage) will win the selection because it is clear eurovision format. But the song is still amazing, i just think this is not like ukrainian merit.

Jamala and The Hardkiss are epic, but I like Jamala more, plus her trademark howl The Hardkiss could have done better, but nevertheless their song is also great!

Okay, I take my words back, she won't qualify. It's between Nastya and Aida.
After Ruslana's victory, she can kick down any door, just that fact is good enough to invite her

The Hardkiss' song is surprisingly good and classy, maybe they actually deserve to qualify to the final after all.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

Jamala and especially The Hardkiss dissapointed me a lot. Their songs are both equally mediocre and boring. That would be very bad choice for Eurovision.

Jamala - the music is good but what about the rest - OMG I didnt understand any word she sang. Just a scream and horror.

The Hardkiss - The whole song is some monotonous howl.

NEXT PLEASE

OMG. Tonya's song is amazing!!!!! So special. Even though it's a demo version.
Helpless is amazing as well.

I wish for the victory of one of them. No more Swedish Pop songs please!

JAMALA!!!!!

Re: UKRAINE 2016

I'll await the final version of Tonya's entry to make a judgement, but I still think it will be my fav. If not Tonya then I could live with The Hardkiss, Jamala or Anastasiya, but I really cross my fingers for a nice revamped version for "Tin Whistle" and a Tonya win...

And big fat no to NeAngely, the last we need is another predictable Swedish import, I really hope Ukraine is not making a comeback to send that, please send something Ukrainian and with substance. Not that NeAngely are particularly bad, but please you can do better than a braindead import.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

NuAngel's song is awesome. It doesn't sound so Swedish in the verses (except backing vocalists) comparing to the chorus and I really like its culmination. Unexpected piano-only ending. They've got me. And it's just a draft version.
Worried about their live performance though.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

LOVE both, Jamala and Hardkiss. I had very high expectations for both, and they delivered. For ESC, I think I slightly prefer Hardkiss, but will be happy with either winning the NF. If anyone else wins, it'll be a tragedy.

Will Jamala pass the "no politics" muster though?

Where are you listening to the NeAngely's song???

Thanks.

A big NO to the song though. Huge disappointment. I think it's worse than Courageous. The only part of the song I like is the "Higher..." from that first little clip they released. The rest of the song is so limp.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

My prediction for the final:

3. Jamala gets pawned for political subtext
2. NuAngels get pawned for bad performance
1. The Hardkiss win the whole thing
