North Macedonia NORTH MACEDONIA 2021 - Vasil - Here I Stand

[escYOUnited]

There are times when I remember back
Wish to hug
The child about to crack
I’ll tell him: wait you won’t be long
Trust your heart and just stay strong

‘Cause baby they all tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
This is how we found our way
Now here I stand
There’s no pretend
My walls are down, my heart’s in your hand
Unchain my wings
And the oceans of tears will fade to black
With the song of my years ooooh-ooooh-ooooh

They all tried to break us (tried to break)
Not knowing it’s what makes us (they don’t know)
This is how we found our way (this is how we found our way)
(Here I stand)
My walls are down, my heart’s in your hand
(They all tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
This is how we found our way)

There are times when I remember back
And all I do is smile
All for you

(They all tried to break us
Not knowing it’s what makes us
And this is how we found our way)​

no idea what is coming up from belarus but maybe the last place in rotterdam?
further i have no words for this pathetic thing.

 

[mauve]

For me, this is also one of the worst entries ... especially the words in the beginning, my toes' and fingers'nails cringe. He says this with such a fake sadness ...

 

[Iker]

This is the most Disneyesque entry since 'On My Way' from Slovenia.

This is the most Disneyesque entry since 'On My Way' from Slovenia.

To be honest even "On My Way" sounds good and "modern" against this trash.

OMG ... thanx for reminding me of Omar ... you can only survive this song when you stick parsley into your ears as Asterix or Obelix do when they hear Troubadix singing ...

It was not trying so hard to be Broadway-esque and there was no artificially sounding (autotuned?) choir anywhere unlike here.

[Gitte]

[Iker]

no

Do you love it or just like it?

 

[Gitte]

Do you love it or just like it?

Well, not 'love', but I kinda like it yes. I gave it a 8 bordering on 7.

 

[Iker]

For me it is 2 bordering on 3.

 

[mauve]

For me it's bad bordering to cringey ...

I gave this 1. As the only contestant this year. No 0s given from me if I am able to classify a given entry as an actual song.
.... and last year I gave Vasil my full 12 p....

Same happened to me this year with Latvia, but the other way around. Samanta got 1 point from me last year, this year my full 12 pts.

So I guess our combined points given to Latvia would be more or less the same for these two years... As far as I remember I placed her a bit below middle last year, and a bit over middle this year...

By looking carefully in the semi you will realize that he may finish dead last.

 

[ag89]

I hope they are preparing a good stage show (I am not optimistic: Macedonian trademark in ESC has been amateurish, questionable staging solutions until Tamara showed up) because otherwise this has no chance. I really hoped success from 2019 would have motivated them to go further and build on that result, but I was obviously wrong.

It will for ~50%.

 

[Iker]

This will finish with max 50 points total in the semifinal. Bookmark me.
