Latvia LATVIA 2021 - Samanta Tīna - The Moon Is Rising

[escYOUnited]

​

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

When I walk in like this
With an attitude
You should know that
I’m coming after you
You can run, you can hide
But you’re mesmerised
In your mind I am
Already idolised

Playing dirty -
Not my case!
Giving up hopes -
Not my case!
Being envious -
Not my case!
If you got something to say,
Say it to my face!

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

(Get ready for a)

Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade

I will glow, I will burn
Illuminate
Bring the passion inside,
Let me touch your fate
I will lead, I will guide you
On your way
I am here to remind
You’re in the right place

My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
My rules, your rules
I’m accepting only true love
My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
You got something to say,
Say it to my face

My rules, your rules
Getting ready for the parade
My rules, your rules
No excuses, if it’s too late
My rules, your rules
Everybody follow my way
You got something to say,
Say it to my face!

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

(Get ready for a)

Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade​

This staging is really not it. Sorry, Samanta but your chances are even lower now.

I think she was soooooooo good today. She's still in the game. Goooo QUEEEN!

Also, to all the haters that don't seem to get the staging, for me it represents raw femininity in a tribal witchcraft kind of way.

She carries the whole thing on her shoulders but with a bomb staging it would've easily sailed through tbh. But hey sf2 is a mess so we never know. Not showing a fricking blood moon is def #choices

 

[Charly]

Is it bad to say that Latvia just started a cult?

By the way who is saying that the staging won't show a blood moon? We have seen only a few seconds, maybe there will be one pn the LED screen?

i watched the full rehearsal and there's no blood moon :/
i wish spain could lend that moon prop to latvia for 3 minutes

Uhh loving the positive reactions today. Also we all know when Samanta truly shines: on stage when there is an audience cheering to the queen. When she can go full-on popstar and just do her stuff.

just started??

An actual cult, Just look at that camera work and dance

This snippet and rehearsal
One is sure: THE QUEEN IS COMING!
GO SAMANTA! SHOW THEM ALL!

People: Latvia is a sure non-qualifier

Samanta:

This is goooooood I still think she won't qualify but this gives me that tiny hope

"The staging is still very simple"

what?


"However, we are still worried for Latvia whose entire premise lingers on Samanta herself. Samanta is very good, mind you, but a little bit more VR could really improve their odds."

where is the (gif) joint/hash smiley when you need it?

[Zorjan]

I need a blood moon, and I need it to be rising!

I expected so much more of the staging of this wonderful entry! Black background with a red dress would have worked alright, but obviously a blood moon behind her would be even better

The Latvian staging with lyrics like that is just such an awful waste... It could have been so good, but just blew it

 

[Citelis]

I think she can get a similar result to Slovenia 2018

lol the snippet literally showed the only impressive part of the stage show. Just a head's up.

I rewatched Hvala Ne two days ago. Lea Sirk sold the song all alone. Attitude, fearless, likeable. True performer. Gives me hope.
