3+2 - Far Away:

Is that audience under instruction to clap inanely throughout that turgid performance? And is that front row reserved for the Belarusian mafia? Seen the one that has hair ripped straight from the pages of Lord of the Rings?

Well as for the song... It's average... one to make up the numbers! I'd be surprised if this gets through to the final. I hate it. I have nothing more to say, it's just pure dross. I'm not listening to it again!

Another we can comfortably write off. As Slick would say, "Loada shite." It's worse than that but I'm trying hard not to spontaneously combust such is my fury at this year's 'songs'.

[Gavster]

ANOTHER NEW SONG ALERT!!!! What are they trying to do this year? "Oh shit.... our song is fucking woeful and their's is better than ours."

"I know, lets completely write-off the voting public and give them a song we think is better!"

Anyway, here it is...

In the dark until a live version comes me thinks! It does have a nice theatrical tone to it, but it's cheesier than a mini cheddar with big slab of Stilton on it.

[squallsquall]

So they actually switched song?

[squallsquall]

Looks like they did according to eurovision.tv...

[Beanie]

From what Ive heard they arent particularly good singers anyway, but a song where 5 sing slowly at once, trying to harmonize their voices? I'd put the chances of this sounding good live at approximately 1%.

You think all the countries are reading my posts? I like the idea of becoming like that fat ginger movie critic on the internet.

More tits and ass please! Women I mean.

Agree - it's in a great position to qualify since the draw - but the initiative could be handed to Macedonia or Iceland if they sound like a primary school assembly.

Is that first clip live? If so, I think the harmonies sound decent enough...

[Gavster]

Harmonies are great. I love the song, I just don't think they'll pull them off live. If they can't sing this live, then the song dies right there and then!

[MickeyPaul]

Oh sweet lord. I've pulled a muscle such was the power of my cringing throughout that pile of.... ok. Breathe, 1,2.... horrible, horrible, song. Gay cheese with a massive dollop of Disney on top. Bleeeeeeuch.

Wow, what a train wreck... you were absolutely right, Beanie

[Akebono]

OMG! that's a lot worse than i thought it would be. This entry is the one that differs the most comparing studio vs. live version.

[Gavster]

Well this is hardly a surprise to us all now is it? Their first song was only just passable, and the fact they delayed a live performance of their new one until now just shows they were having big tuning problems.

Still 2.75 not to qualify at Betfred.
