Re: SAN MARINO 2013

Right, San Marino need to have a stand out ballad next year. Not the dreary mess of Stand By (which I like btw) but a real stand out ballad, watch the juries kick themselves over it and then San Marino will sail into the final.

I really don't think countries like San Marino will ever make the final...they just don't have the diaspora or neighbourly support. Monaco, Andorra and San Marino have all tried an failed...

Malta has no diaspora and they qualified. San Marino has yet to send a song that has mass appeal. Plus they only tried three times, their time will come.

Monaco have won before, albeit years ago, and Andorra almost qualified from the biggest semi ever. I'm sure with the right song San Marino can qualify :p

I highly doubt it. It take a bloody amazing tune for a non-bloc country to win the contest, unfortunately I don;t think any of these smaller nations will ever secure enough points to qualify for the final. Andorra in whatever year they came 12th in the semi - that was a great song...had it been performed by another country it would have easily qualified..

Re: SAN MARINO 2013

Honestly if San Marino managed to get 14th with that song just imagine what they're able to do with a actually good song! Go SM, if you send a good song next year I'm sure we'll see you in the final!

Re: SAN MARINO 2013

Already in 2011, the jury vote only would have allowed San Marino to compete in the final. They're just doing better every year, but they must not give up.

I still think its highly unlikely that San Marino will ever get through to the final, as with any micro-nation, however I do agree they shoudl keep trying. I think SM 12 mamnaged to do well because it was slightly gimicky, but I hope they don't do that again next year. Ralph Siegel should retire...it is not 1980 anymore!!!

Re: SAN MARINO 2013

I think RAI will keep them just to give them 12 points in the final ;)

Well, they certainly didn't do their job this year. :lol:
