Rumour is that James Newmans song is an upbeat dance song similar to what he rewrote for rudimental

[Nicky91]

we dutchies serving a ethnic bop

[Nicky91]

this is how you deliver as host nation, no guts, no glory just try out something new


the song is about Jeangu's roots, family background, how surinam has gotten stronger in more recent times compared to some decades ago

the phrase he sings in sranan tongo means ''you don't break me'' more like anti-slavery song

[Nicky91]

Moldova well LOL they tried to compare to siren song doesn't even come close to Maruv whatsoever, Kirkorov's music is sooooo outdated these days the mold is on top of it

contender for last place in semi 2

[Nicky91]

tomorrow Super Saturday 2, with the finals of Estonia, Portugal, Italy, Denmark



today 18:00 CET Serbia hurricane loco loco song release

2022 i hope for more countries again, hoping we can return to 42 or 43 countries (montenegro i would love to see back, Andorra's grand comeback what they been working on yes please, and hope Armenia get their **** sorted out before next year too)

[Nicky91]

tonight national finals of Estonia, Portugal, Italy, Denmark


and Sweden's Andra Chansen duels for next weeks final

[Nicky91]

my hopes for tonight

Estonia: Daddy Koit (i am in love with his beautiful ballad)

Portugal: Karetus, Carolina or even Valéria i would like (just not generic plastic NEEV pls)

Denmark: Emma Nicoline, Fyr og Flamme, Mike Tramp is my top 3 there

Italy well surprise me whoever wins sanremo is a worthy winner i think

[Nicky91]

well i am liking the line up so far


we got danish language back a first in 24 years hope they keep it in danish anyway it has its charm, song overall is very fun 80's disco, which is again very current these days tbh


Italy going for rock


Estonia having their own ''sergey lazarev type of act'' very jury bait radio friendly pop song


Portugal surprising me, actually choosing the better of the two english songs, Black Mamba's singer well a male macy gray/gabrielle sort of voice, and song wise is very james morrison with a very portuguese jazz vibe

[Black Dagger]

Italy was the only decent result last night.

The rest were ****ing moronic and confined themselves to the SFs

don't call any artist/song moronic pls


i applaud Denmark going for their native language, it is a real fun cheesy performance too, they are also a good name in todays music scene over there

Portugal actually has a big name now, going for english is a first for them which i applaud them to for, with the right song (NEEV's was just mediocre and basic vocally wise)

Estonia well not a surprise Uku got the sympathy votes, but tbh it is better than his song last year so i'm ok with it, also very mainstream/radio friendly appeal

[Nicky91]

i absolutely adore this line up so far


and we also got two surprises (Belarus) and one best kept secret (Poland) too

Youre literally abusive about so many artists.

I clearly meant the juries/public who voted them through.
