Hardkiss 3rd with the juries, bloody hell. I guess they've made their mind up already.
They probably thought the song was politic, however the most politic song was Jamala's and she got the highest point.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

Jamala is on a different level. My favourite song of the ESC season so far, beating Heartbeat atm. Will probably be in my top 5 this year if it wins in Ukraine! Finally we get some modern sounding ethnic song, THIS IS WHAT WE'VE (OR AT LEAST I) BEEN WAITING FOR

Re: UKRAINE 2016

Is the political topic a problem you think if it wins in Ukraine? I mean could it get disqualified or something? (I'm scarred after Anna Book)

I agree with Andy from ESCKaz "There's not a single word about politics in the lyrics".
This song is about her personal tragedy that happened that year. The song was inspired by the murder of her relatives and she doesn't blame countries or parties etc.

Lol. BSB 2nd with the juries? They all said it wasn't right for ESC. If Hardkiss miss the final because of this...!

Re: UKRAINE 2016

Should I save this post for when the British final comes? :mrgreen:

BBC doesn't have any adverts to my knowledge except for promoting it's own shows during the transition from one program to another. For every other UK channel.. 60% of each show's time is adverts :(

Re: UKRAINE 2016

I'm incredibly annoyed that BSB qualified, but I'm glad that they flopped in the televoting at least.

Literally my favourite song so far of all the selections is going to lose to Jamala. This makes me sad. :( Hopefully the televoters change their mind. It's obvious the juries won't.

Well BBC doesn't have advert breaks. :lol: But if you want to, then go ahead, you can use it for when I start moaning over our 30 second interval acts until the results are pushed through in 10 seconds.

Re: UKRAINE 2016

I really love the outcome of the semi, but the overall feeling of the show is so depressing. The jurors are complaining and the artists are either mad (Anastasiya) or sad (Aida) during the critique and the results. It just leaves me sad even though I realize my favourite will win the final.
