my thoughts on ESCZ line up

Dan Barta & Marketa Irglova

Celeste Buckingham

Jakub Ondra

Albert Cerny

LinaKaro

question mark solo female (with no or little fanbase)

question mark solo male (with almost none fanbase)

it is difficult, but we can rule out many singers too, due to 177k clue

[Nicky91]

but tbh some of clues also say something here you go, someone else if you want to puzzle @Argy

Our first artist is a pretty unknown female rap singer. She has around 5000 monthly listeners on Spotify, but she has already made it to various Czech music charts = likely someone unknown who hasn't got much or none of a insta fanbase due to her yet soo new career

Next up is a duet! A very famous Czech female icon will pair up with another extremely famous Czech male icon and together they will sing a ballad with hints of pop. = Dan Barta & Marketa Irglova (not much of a fanbase on insta but both quite the icons big name material)

Our third artist is a male singer who has already represented (or at least tried to represent) us at Eurovision before. He is pretty famous in the Czech republic and in the Eurovision community. = Albert Cerny (as part of Lake Malawi)

The fourth singer is a famous female singer, who has won a famous Czech talent show. She has released a lot of songs since then, and rumours say she has already applied to ESCZ before! = Tereza Mašková (biggest insta fanbase out of the 7, 134k)

Our fifth singer is an underground indie pop female singer. She has roots from Russia and she's currently living in the United Kingdom, but the Czech republic has always been her true home. = Aiko

The next singer is a pretty famous male pop singer. He has already competed in ESCZ before, but this year his song will be completely different! = Jakub Ondra

And finally, our last singer is an experimental indie rock female singer who hasn't released any songs before this contest. But chances are you've already seen her on your TV screens! = some unknown new talent without a instagram account probably

[Nicky91]

https://www.songfestivalweblog.nl/20...-songfestival/

new rumour Netherlands, singer S10 to Turin but it is a very obscure one, from some channel i never even heard of, probably trying to gain likes from all the current rumours hype


she is known for this song

Youtube video

[Nicky91]

Bulgaria song

Youtube video

A-MA-ZING

[Nicky91]

this is how you deliver a solid real rock entry

@Italy @Finland rather than pretentious teen rock from maneskin, blind channel



Ronnie his vocals are just so gorgeous great rock music video either


Stoyan still looks good and in his best form as well

[Nicky91]

Lakshmi or S10

i prefer Lakshmi myself, with a banger similar to Lullaby, good eastern europe votebait


with a quite ethnic and sexy staging yes please to go with it

BREAKING NEWS, from Netherlands AVROTROS at 16:00 CET (15:00 UK Time)

[Nicky91]

in our selections it is usually first the artist and the song usually later on mostly in March or end of february

so i reckon we now get the artist


hoping secretly for it to be Dries Roelvink after all i adore him, and my mom wants him to represent us as well, someone we have heard of at least

[Nicky91]

Netherlands bringing back dutch language last place in semi hopefully


for this unknown bitch S10

[Nicky91]

come on Albania and hopefully Alban Ramosaj as the winner there, so i can still support someone with dutch background

[Nicky91]

there is a rumour going around on twitter this might be our song
