So this year everyone in Greece is talking about ESC, today the theme was the slot in the running order on some tv shows, some saying that maybe the staging is weak/hasnt impressed the organisers, otherwise they wouldnt have put GRE-SWI one after another that early in the semi.
Im just praying...
Considering its market, this is not getting the attention that I expected on streams, odds and generally in the fandom. I feel like its being underrated, but I kinda get it as there are many strong male entries this year ( like Switzerland, Belgium ) that kinda overshadow this. Its not a bottom...
Its bizzare. Both songs with rap and constant switch ups one after another... the biggest favorites of the first half so early. They should have put Czechia in between at least to break the craziness up
Dont like her RO spot, third and before Switzerland.
Shes safely qualifying, but a good result in the semi is important coz it affects the slot youre getting in the final running order.
Hope its a slay and very memorable
Staging will matter a lot. If they go down the cliche route ( just dancers dancing around her ) I dont think it can do much harm.
What's going to be interestering is how juries are going to see this, many people say they will tank her, but the song and the performer are jury-friendly no doubt.
Im relieved Fokas is with her, hes got tons of Esc experience, something that an artist with innovative talent like Marina needs.
We have tried with " fresh " directors too and we became ρεντίκολο ( 2018 - the infamous blue hand of Yianna and 2019 - the nightmarish Worse love performance ). Not...
Shes not winning the tele with a ballad that would normally score 50 points with the public.
Ukraine stormed the tele in 2022 with a super televote friendly song, that would have done great in the tele anyway, and with literally everyone standing on their side.
Will she get a boost in some...
wiwibloggs polls are the easiest polls to rig lol. I remember rigging those for Risky Kid and Freaky Fortune back in 2014 😭😭
Eurovisionworld poll is more legit
Nothing, 2023 was staged by Rigos. That zombie face of Vernicos on the backdrop still haunts me to this day
If Fokas had staged it he would have stood a ( slim ) chance at qualifying, his stagings are sometimes great, sometimes sloppy, but never indifferent
I just hope some of the parts of the song wont lose impact in the name of "doing something different".
In the " ti na thimitho - MARINA! " part for example, I would imagine a sudden camera shot from far away with her name on the backdrop or something. Now with just one shot from the beginning to...
