Re: Romania

Ake, you get me wrong, I'll be amazed if it makes top-10, but I just think has the potential to sneak in.

Whooooooah!!! I just got to her operatic bit at 2:07. This is as bad as Eurovision gets for me. I'm not sure I can take another year of this shit.

Your medication is on the top shelf btw, gavin.
Dude actually they're becoming mainstream...take the last songs they've got in UK tops at first place for example. Inna and Co, all from Romania doing well in international tops.

Re: Romania

I don't know how you see this song, guys, but I see let's say even a top 6. Very catchy song, from what I have read there will be an award this year for the video too and the video is really good, it is a premiere at ESC, the technology from the movie avatar.

Romania top 10 @ 5.00 (VALUE)

Value and very possible. Why? I watched and listened all the rehearsals and oh man, oh man, some of them... TOTALY SUCKED! But this one is perfect, usually the singers with a great voice enter top 12:


Don't forget there is a jury in everycountry which gives 50%! The other half is the televoting.

he is kinda rude, but he has right with the East Europeans, some of their compositions are awful and full of kitsch. but this doesn't happen with the Romanian songs, they are top class in Europe right now, their dance/house is at Holland's level probably. the majority of their songs are made for Europe, even for Canada or the USA, and just in English.

Just some examples of the latest Romanian creations:

Edward Maya ("Stereo Love" - with about 50 million of views on Youtube, number 1 in Holland, France, Spain, 2 in Belgium and Russia, 4 in Italy and UK, entrance also on the American market)


Inna (you know her from the UK top; it has also topped the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Airplay)


Dan Balan (the ex O-Zone singer, song made for the USA)


And the list can continue with Akcent, Play & Win or Morandi or others. Or Cheeky Girls! ) The Romanian music had a boom in Europe and this is a fact! Even in UK some of them. I am not arrogant not to admit it!

That's why I believe this "Playing with Fire" will also enter the top...

Fair enough and sorry for being rude. I always forget there are other people here.

Re: Romania

I have Romania in one of my accumulators. I've seen value in them for ages. There is however, no fucking way I'm putting my money on just Romania. I rather bet my left bollock on Malcom Tucker doing a charity kids chart song!


lol "It's a costume" You're fucking telling me darlin! She got two baked potatoes roasting in that thing??

Re: Romania

Probably the most stupid song left in. Guess what? Yip. I think it's fucking shocking on every single level. And I hope it doesn't qualify. Sorry.

p.s. I think Bulgaria is better than this. I even think Macedonia was better than this.

Re: Romania

You been sniffing paint Mickey? This is crowd pleaser. Lots of energy and enthusiasm. This will do well me thinks, certainly borderline top 10.

Re: Romania

I seem to be the only person hating it gavin.

The song itself is where my real hate is. The "girl girl girl, boy boy boy" really sets me off early and then when they kick into the "we're playing with fire" I'm really close to the edge and the "UH!... oh oh oh oh UH!" I'm ready for murder. Then her stupid operatic bit I'm just tearing at the keyboard.

Genuine hatred for me on this. The most spazzo song this year and still naff, naff, naff. I don't think it's on the level of anything from semi 1 as a "crowd pleaser".

Ah well.
