Lithuania LITHUANIA 2020 - The Roop - On Fire

OMG Gabrielius what is you doin'? This picture doesn't fit the mood of the song in my mind, but we'll see.

IKR? It actually got worse. As someone who loves extravagant and eccentric stylings I am sorry but everytime lithuanians try to do something hip and avantgarde (which they are trying to do very often) they only deliver hilarious outcomes - it would be fun if its satirical like KayRa but its tragic when most of them actually take themselves serious with what they were. They really all need to fire their stylists - nothing is adding up together.

OMG Gabrielius what is you doin'?

RIP sexy legs

 

[Citelis]

She saved this edition of Atranka for me.

Real talent must win.

People hating her because pf the t/v thing. I like it too!

RIP sexy legs

Maybe he kept the swaying-hip situation. One can hope.

that staging doesn't feel like it fits tave cia randu but we shall see. i fear more for ruta and baltos varnos who are keeping it a bit too safe for a public that historically gets bored quickly and enjoys change.

Ruta Loop has awful ESC entry again, so much wasted potential.

She was great in "Muzikinis Issukis" and did fantastic performance in a role of Natalija Bunke in version of "Your Face Sounds Familiar".

Worldvision participants can remember this video.

The jury should evaluate the song.
The staging can always be changed in 3 months.

Gabrielius's song is excellent, the jury should vote for him only for this.
Aiste's song looks like a scrap from Melodifestivalen 2010, Kristine's song seems to be a random ballad that singers present in the Moldovan selection.

I prefer a good song with a staging to be upgraded/changed in May (like Gabrielius) rather than a bad/old/random/flat song where it can't do anything.

Ruta Loop, Gabrielius, The Roop deserve the final ... the last place would be for Alen Chicco or Kayra.

I have no good feeling as I said before with Aiste, Kristina, also with Viktoria (scene already seen with Australia and Estonia), twin sisters are cute but weak.

 

[Citelis]

Ruta Loop has a bad song. The Roop and KaYra are middle of the road for me. Alen Chicco is rather awful.

 

[Mrm]

The first semi for me:

1. Gabrielius Vagelis – “Tave čia randu”
2. Viktorija Miškūnaitė – “The Ocean”
3. Kristina Jure – “My Sound of Silence”
4. Baltos Varnos – “Namų dvasia”
----------------------------------
5. Alen Chicco – “Somewhere Out There”

 

[Citelis]

Gabrielius is good but not among me favorites. He has potential.

 

[BarefootBoogaloo]

With regards to the changes:
-KaYra; might be a problem for people with clown phobias
-Baltos Varnos; I had actually hoped they'd go for green with brown skirts, the grey just washes out
-Rūta; If she's gonna go with all white, I'd love to see them play with lighting to make her pop
-Gabrielus; really great styling upgrade for him and the backing singers, IDK how I feel about the disco background though
-Vaidotas; the coveralls seem like a downgrade to me

 

[Mrm]

Why not the disco lightning..it is the exactly thing we miss in my signature..

 

[LastDreamer]

I didn't listen all 18 songs, but from ladies Kristina Jure is supreme, will not be very sad with Monika Marija win, KaYra could do her work a little better, the rest are the shame for the country with the best pop music scene in the world.

I wouldn't mind if they added the soft lighting from the video, though, it would go so much better

I was pessimistic at the start of the week but in the article I read Baltos Varnos were again praised by the juries. They might just sneak through into the final.

 

[BorisBubbles]

I'm not worried either way. Kristina is boring and Aiste is lame, but the others are piece-by-piece very good entries and satisfying finalists :-) Still haven't decided who my favourite is between Tave Cia Randu, Alligator and On Fire.

The second semi is a different story. Moniqué is hands down the best and she's making the finals anyway. Monika Marija and Meandi will qualify, which is... acceptable, I guess and I couldn't give fewer fucks about who the fourth name is if I tried.

 

[Mrm]

Aiste got 1600+ televotes in the Heat 3 and was 2nd..
Maybe you find it lame, but televoters obviously not..
Winners of 1st and 2nd Heat got 1000+ televotes..

 

[BorisBubbles]

Unbreakable IS lame, dated and a complete retread of "In a moment like this" (which was lame and dated EVEN IN 2010). It doesn't matter that it's popular with people over the age 160. That doesn't make it any less stupid.

I'm not sure Meandi is a lock for the final tbh.

So excited for Gabrelius Vagelis - Tave čia randu
