my last place of this year because well this does not represent greek music in any way whatsoever, he is a good singer - i like some of his covers on youtube but this is scraping bottom of barrel from Panik Records when they've also got good greek music releases currently, and this is bland, feels more Melodifestivalen vibe all over, NO from me but it will qualify because he's hot probably

my score: 1.5/10

controversial but yes i am not a fan of this one, flamenco music is not everyone's cup of tea, and is it something for eurovision, no if you ask me, and there were better choices in this years edition of Benidorm Fest too

not even a real song title just random gibberish letters

my score: 3.0/10

first i'll say what i do like, the piano instrumentals, very nice

but i cannot get past how cliché this entry is

1) Switzerland most known as a neutral country
2) also one of the world's wealthiest countries (economy wise) so we can think of Remo coming from a well off family, he lives in St Gallen, houses are like very expensive there, and him singing ''i don't wanna be a soldier, soldier'' leaves a bad aftertaste in my mouth

this is too dark, depressing for my liking, i want more fun uplifting songs in times like these

in terms of appearance, stage presence he is giving me: Michael Rice vibes and we know how well that ended for the UK in 2019

my score: 3.5/10

two words of lithuanian is nice, but rest of lyrics are sooooooo giving me Ylva/Linda composition vibes

very cheesy, very dated

feels also very The Mamas (Sweden 2020) it is catchy gospel pop but too generic for my liking

my score: 4.0/10

it is a guilty pleasure of mine (but not in a too good way quality wise)

Luke's vocals are very whiny, although it comes across to me as very funny

this feels very Hatari (Iceland 2019) meets Melovin (Ukraine 2018)

this song's message is very good, against wars, cancel culture, virusses and all that negativity makes you want to sleep most of the time

is this gonna do well, idk as it's not very attractive for mainstream audiences maybe

my score: 5.5/10

first of all, huge respect for a own composition by this 16 yr old

but most of it comes across very pretentious and like nepotism

Victor comes from one of Greece's richest families, his greek grandfather was the founder, owner of shipping companies worth many billions, his greek aunt is a famous fashion designer, photographer and his danish father is a very successful businessman

although it is a cool music video, cool song (very current, strong Ed Sheeran, Lewis Capaldi vibes)

my score: 6.0/10

San Marino giving us a fairly normal entry for once, it's pleasant to listen to, it reminds me of something but i don't know what

very cheesy lyrics

idk how this will do, but it is in the weaker semi 2 so maybe not hopeless just yet

my score: 6.5/10
