    I mean, I’m pretty sure Sony covered the expenses of Isaiah and Jess, the creative staging direction SBS went for just wasn’t great

    Yeah I kinda agree - I love the fusion of sounds but ultimately I wish they committed more to the aboriginal parts of the song… at least the staging should be memorable if they commit to that

    Ricki-Lee really should’ve gone this year - her new album is great!

    And I really think (or hope) Europe would respond to an entry that felt very true to Australia's deep history - at least enough to get them out of the semi and into a final where I could see the jury respond to it as well. So I really hope SBS knows it's their primary weapon this year, which is...

    I agree with what's been said. The reason why I loved 2000 and Whatever so much was because the fusion between EDM and indigenous sounds just was perfect - like it felt super modern in a sense but also tribal and authentic to Zac's background. While the fusion's still there in One Milkali...

    Tonight Again, Sound of Silence, and Zero Gravity are all top-tier performances in my book xthink

    I mean, it was perhaps a polarising song but its quality can't be put into question - especially when the performer is Kate Miller-Heidke!! Kate is by the way gonna be a judge on the Voice Australia! I think Eurovision really helped her career. She deserves it so much

    Yes? like the production of the song was obviously top-tier, same with Don't Come Easy. The music video was also banging (Jessica) which definitely impacted how I at first reacted to the song, unlike Electric Fields' music video which was just super distracting

    Zac said in an interview they were gonna incorporate his art into the staging (as he's also a visual designer or something). Here's some of his art: https://www.agsa.sa.gov.au/whats-on/exhibitions/ramsay-art-prize-2023/zaachariaha-fielding/ I can imagine it could be such a great moment on the...

    Yes it’s got some nice aboriginal elements to it which are really nice So I hope they’ll just embrace that for all it’s worth in the staging performance because it’s a super easy way to make it more recognizable and memorable as we’ve never seen it before in Eurovision If SBS just glosses over...

    Yeah upon a second listen it’s quite pleasant but comes across as very uncompetitive… But there’s an anthemuc feeling to the song they must take advantage of on stage - I’d say they’ll have to really commit to the aboriginal parts of this song to really make it stand out. Like bring a...

    I wish they came with something more similar like 2000 and Whatever… Like how Dadi Freyr served us 10 years after Think About Things - similar yet not the same entry

    you gotta have faith in SBS that they’re gonna deliver a good staging again cause they need it even to qualify

    Idk it’s nice and all of that but it doesn’t feel very competitive as of now I said the same thing last year about Voyager and they proved me wrong… Idk what to think, Australia used to be so good back in the days

    2015-2018 were really strong songs, you don’t need a NF to select a strong entry Upon first listen I’d say Electric Fields was quite alright… but it’s no 2000 and Whatever I’m afraid
