This junior level song having 12 pts from jurry is reason why jurry should be expelled from esc. This having more votes than Roi, in what universe? There weren't any better songs in czechia this year?

lol be glad we didn't send any of the other songs from our national final (barring one), you wouldn't have enjoyed e.g. 'Space Sushi' any more than this :D

I honestly never expected us to even qualify, not to mention almost make top 10 in the GF so I'm happy even though I'm not a huge fan of the song. 7 points from the televote is still our second best televoting score in the Grand Final so there's no need to complain :D :D
I hope that we will send something good next year (but I'm a little scared as well given the producers' choice of this years' NF songs).

It should get better next year with the TV national final, I think that at least rules all Hana Barbara's out.

how on Earth could they have thought choosing that song was a good idea I'll never understand :D

I'm a bit worried, though, who will submit their song this early - the deadline is already in a month or so. Maybe they will prolong it but still... I hope it won't be a couple of beginning musicians with a producer who will try for them to follow Mikolas's success. We would end up with a bunch of calculated mediocre songs again :/

'Friend of a Friend' grew into my Top 2 and now I listened to their work. Great band. Gives me the positive vibes I need sometimes xup

And to realize that they named their first EP 'When we are making love again'... xheat

I hope their success can encourage other bands/singers from the alternative scene - Lake Malawi themselves weren't fans of the contest in the past but they admitted they were wrong and now encourage others who think similarly as they did to give Eurovision a chance ;)

My biggest grower of the year probably. They deserved this result. I don't realy understand why the televoting results were so criminally bad, but still, a really good job.


:Well done :cz: xclap
