Also i am not sure why they revamped the chorus instrumental? What was the reason?? Nnn I thought it was hard to see her because of the press stream being low quality but she's kind of getting lost here too. Give mother some close-ups! Edited May 8, 2023 by Funhouse
Hurem Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Croatia is so easily qualifying, I can’t wait to see fandom meltdown
ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 8, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted May 8, 2023 If Norway doesn’t qualify
ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 8, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted May 8, 2023 Just saw the leaked Cha Cha Cha performance and the vocals really weren’t as bad as people were saying. He needs either more vocoder-esque effect like Loreen or more backing in the sung portion but that should be relatively easy to fix. The staging is fabulous and I love quick reference to his favorite Eurovision entry in it.
ZIVERT Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 That “X Factor” style elimination is almost exactly how they do the Melfest qualifiers, so it really doesn’t sound like an SVT innovation so glad it’s canned. The way they’ve been doing it for the last few years is great. I’m surprised by the press poll tbh - didn’t expect to see Czech Republic so high, nor did I expect Portugal and Latvia so high. But these results are acceptable, especially if it means Croatia is out

elvenOCEAN Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 OMG it seems like they ruined Croatia's performance! Some of the shots we got to see look horrendous. The performance from the national finals with the bit where the camera is spinning from the ceiling was brilliant. Loreen looks amazing, as expected. Also, thank goodness they reverted back to the old way of announcing the qualifiers. Some of these artists are among the biggest artists in their respective countries. They should not be treated like singing show contestants. Whoever got the idea needs to be fire immediately.
DUA LIPA Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 @Queen Conchita we need an upadted thread title, the jury semi is about to start in 30 mins
illia Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Hi everyone! I've been out of the loop for a while so I haven't seen any rehearsals this year (except for Norway that randomly popped up on my TikTok feed) I'm very excited for tomorrow! I'm going completely blind, and I have high expectations for Finland, Sweden and my underrated fave Moldova My predictions (as a person who has seen only Norway rehearsal by accident): 1. Israel will FLOP and pull an El Diablo result 2. Croatia will qualify (unfortunately) 3. Loreen is going to EATTTTTTTT 4. Moldova will be highly acclaimed straight to the final 5. Kaarija is going to EATTTTTTTT [2] Don't care about the rest Spoiler wtf is this
gimmelaugh Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Why are they doing jury semis if the semis are televote only?

I just don't understand why they completely let her down like that? Two years ago they had a dull af song and they came up with a brilliant staging idea, even half of the creativity of that one would've been sufficient for this year.

ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 8, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted May 8, 2023 I edited the title real quick, but @Queen Conchita please feel free to change it to whatever you want when you return from the show!
Green Tea Is Green Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 How come EBU gave them the right to share all of these clips tho? It kinda sends how they're the only ones uploading everything, they're EBU's faves I fear apparently they uploaded new clips for all just now but I can't find it, any spaniard got a link?
MAKSIM Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Israel should’ve just retitled the song to anything other than Unicorn and it would make the song 10000x better. Just copy and paste literally any word wherever unicorn appears.

My best guess is that The Black Mamba had a team who was able to pull that out, maybe Mimicat didn't? RTP truly has no money for Eurovision, our government doesn't really care :(
