Re: CZECH REPUBLIC 2018
My thougths on the songs:
"Reason" Debbi
Feels a bit Anouk (pre-ESC one) with a catchy poptune. Feels very summerish and enjoyable. Maybe not a perfect choice for ESC, but I like it!
"Stand Up" Doctor Victor
Really old-school rock with a lot of guitars. Can't dislike it, feels really fun and the chorus is easy to sing a long to. Maybe the song that is least likely to work in ESC, but has it's place in the NF nevertheless. The guitarsolo is giving me life! xbb
"We Rule This World" Eddie Stoilow
Not my type of song, but I enjoy it somewhat though. Feels honest and well made. But nah, doesn't work for me.
"Fly" Eva Burešová
Makes me think of the polish "Flashlight" last year, but that is positive. Even if this isn't as good as Kasias song, this also give a strong feeling of desperation which I often enjoy. The chorus is really well made...but I am afraid this might feel lost in Lisbon, as the Czechs often do...still one of the better ones in the NF.
"Lie To Me" Mikolas Josef
Something wrong with the video
, bbut guess it is "Lie To Me" that is the entry. If so, then this might be the clear winner. Catchy song that really stands out in the competition and also sung by a cute guy. The song could even become a big hit, stucks like glue to the head. This could sail through to the final with a good draw, really enjoy it.
"Never Forget" Pavel Calita
The song that feels the most promising...till you hear the lyrics and you can really hear that it is a non-english speaker that has written it. Makes the whole song childish and pointless. No, the song I like the least in the end.
For me it is open road for Mikolas Josef, but guess we have to wait and see how things look like on stage.
