Lithuania LITHUANIA 2021 - The Roop - Discoteque

[escYOUnited]

​

Okay, I feel the rhythm
Something's going on here
The music flows through my veins

It's taking over me, it's slowly kicking in
My eyes are blinking and I don't know what is happening
I can't control it, don't wanna end it
There's no one here and I don't care
I feel it's safe to dance alone (dance alone)

Dance alone (dance alone), dance alone (dance alone)
Dance alone (dance alone), dance alone (dance alone)
Dance alone (dance alone), dance alone

Let's discoteque right at my home
It is okay to dance alone
Dance alone, dance alone (alone)
Dance alone (alone), dance alone (alone)
I got the moves, it's gonna blow

Dance alone, dance alone
Dance alone, dance alone

By dancing on my own
I'm healing wounded soul
My body's shaking, heart is breaking
Have to let it go
I need to get up and put my hands up
There's no one here and I don't care
I feel it's safe to dance alone

Let's discoteque right at my home
It is okay to dance alone
Dance alone, dance alone (alone)
Dance alone (alone), dance alone (alone)
I got the moves, it's gonna blow

Dance alone, dance alone
Dance alone, dance alone

Let's discoteque right at my home
It is okay to dance alone
I got the moves, it's gonna blow
It is okay to dance alone

Let's discoteque right at my home
It is okay to dance alone
I got the moves, it's gonna blow
It is okay to dance alone​

shocking and unexpected

 

[JChan]

I'm so happy but that was such an anticlimatic results reveal, they should present them in a different way

 

[Looren]

Well congrats The Roop

So sad for Gebrasy

 

[mauve]

40 minutes of interval acts, ads, and Zoom calls

You can take a third nap, believe me ...

 

[Morty]

That is an even bigger (in %) landslide victory than Fairytale in MGP 2009.

 

[crashworld]

Oh well, well-deserved for The Roop. #notmywinner
At the first place, they should have been internally selected.
But it's alright, at least I get to know the masterpiece coming from Gebrasy.

 

[Mainshow]

Damn - I almost missed the results... 45 minutes of waiting for SUCH a fast and anticlimatic way of presenting the results Oo

 

[CPV4931]

Good and expected choice, well done :-) My new #1 out of the selected songs

 

[NikolaiMoller]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[HayashiM]

Sum everyones televote (except The Roop's), multiply by 4, The Roop still wins. That's what I call a landslide

Edit: multiply by 6...

 

[AlekS]

2020 - 50139
2021 - 74512

 

[mauve]

Well, congrats The Roop. Even though you won't be in my top 10, good luck at Rotterdam!

 

[crashworld]

I mean, how do you guys want the results to be announced? Televote then jury vote?
Once the jury vote is out, you will know The Roop is going to win coz Gebrasy is never going to win the televote.
Let's get it over and done with so they can put the rest out of their misery.

 

[Mainshow]

Sweden, take notes... most satisfying and well-deserved Top 3 in a NF ever!

 

[EscGeek]

What a shocker!

"Discoteque" was my personal favorite. I've already learned the lyrics to it.
This is two levels above "On Fire". which wasn't bad to begin with.
Martyna is the only other act i liked in this NF. I'm sure next year will be more competitive.

 

[Mrm]

I'm so happy for this...

NO..

1 in the poll...

 

[AlekS]

 

[Mainshow]

I prefer this to "On Fire" - It's edgier, cooler, still a bop (and memorable, catchy etc.) but I love the strings and the chorus so much!!!

 

[Morty]

I'm giving it a 10, because I preferred On Fire over Discoteque, and this doesn't come close to the Ukrainian entry for me this year. But it is a very good song, and I will probably vote for it in May.

 

[Leydan]

Ok, ok. So now it's clearly won I can truly say what I think and yes this is yet again another Ashley attacking a fan fave NF winner, yawn. I know x. But well, this song is one steaming turd of nothing. Last year the song was alright, I enjoyed it but thought the staging carried it and that it was far too 'edgy' for what was a rather run of the mill song. This year it is a whole other thing, the song is literally nothing. I'm well and truly perplexed as to why this song is even hyped at all other than OmgItsTheRoopLetsHype, it's not catchy, it's not amusing, it's literally not even memorable. It's entirely reliant on that staging which let's be honest, is utterly ridiculous. Anyone who knows me knows I love a good joke hit [cite; iconic pot lady from Peru (click for a good time) ] but I don't find anything about this staging or song amusing or funny. It's literally like they've tried to play off from their entry this year but gone one step further and it just looks like some super poor attempt at a mediocre joke entry that isn't even funny in the slightest. If anything that staging with the arm flailing annoys me. The calibre for what is funny must be very low if this passes. One Fire did it far better, it still felt like a serious attempt with something extra. This is just one mess waiting to get ignored by the juries. A scathing 1 point as I really DON'T like it.
