ESC 2012 - Reviewing the countries beginning with "G", "H"


Georgia sends Anri Jokhadze with the song "I'm A Joker" written by Rusudan Chkhaidze and Bibi Kvachadze.
Somebody please call Batman! Now I know why people made so many negative comments about this! It's horrible! I don't like it at all! There's no way Georgia will make it to the final. The only thing I like though are just a few parts of the music.
Georgia competes in the 2nd semi-final with running order #12.

0pts from me and good luck to Georgia!
Germany sends Roman Lob with the song "Standing Still" written by Steve Robson, Wayne Hector and Jamie Cullum.
A grower. Cute song but again, I don't know how to rank it... Definitely not a toilet break (oh wait! I never take a toilet break during a country's performance!). Really I don't know what to say. I like it, it's pleasant but I'm not crazy about it. Roman's handsome though. ;)
Germany competes in the final with running order #20.

6pts from me and good luck to Germany!
Greece sends Eleftheria Eleftheriou with the song "Aphrodisiac" written by Dimitri Stassos, Mikaela Stenström and Dajana Lööf.
I love it! Many call it a cheap pop song. My reply to them, Sweden 2011! Well I think we'll be once again in the top 10! Somewhere around 8-10 maybe. I'm glad we send an entry like this. I didn't like our 2010 and 2011 entries so that's a great comeback for me!
Greece competes in the 1st semi-final with running order #3.

10pts from me and good luck to Greece!



Hungary sends Compact Disco with the song "Sound Of Our Hearts" written by Behnam Lotfi, Attila Sándor, Csaba Walkó and Gábor Pál.
I love the video! Just watched it for the first time. Really nice. I also like the song a lot! Even though it wasn't my winner in the hungarian NF. 
Hungary competes in the 1st semi-final with running order #15.

7pts from me and good luck to Hungary!

ESC 2012 - The greek entry

I was too tired to blog about this on Monday and I forgot to blog about it yesterday! Wow, I really don't care that much about Greece this year! And our song is nice! lol

Well I didn't watch the entire final. I watched the songs and then I turned it off coz I found it extremely boring! Not to mention the fact that they sang playback! Seriously? Now we don't know how it's gonna sound live! We have to wait until the rehearsals!

Anyway! Our representative this year is Eleftheria Eleftheriou with "Aphrodisiac" written by Dimitri Stassos, Mikaela Stenström and Dajana Lööf.

And as I said when I first listened to the songs, this was my winner so I'm glad about it! Good luck to us!

ESC 2012 - Greece: the 4 competing songs

Again, this is old news. The songs are out since Tuesday but as I said I don't really care about Greece this year in spite of being my country. The writers, composers and artists are still unknown. But if we combine the rumors that were going on all these weeks we actually know the artists... I've listened to all the songs and overall I like them all. They're good. No winning material but seriously, we really don't need an ESC victory right now. Just to keep our top 10 record! :P

"Killer Bee" - Cassiopeia
I like this one. Quite catchy but a kinda weird title.

"Baby I'm Yours" - Dora Katsikogianni
A lot of people say that this reminds them of Antique's "Die For You"... Well yeah, maybe the bouzouki but that's all. I like the greek elements anyway.

"No Parking" - Velvet Fire
Another weird title... I like the chorus but the verses...naah not so much. 

"Aphrodisiac" - Eleftheria Eleftheriou
And here we have our winner. At least according to the polls and I think it's my winner too.

My ranking for now is

"Aphrodisiac"
"Killer Bee"
"Baby I'm Yours"
"No Parking"

I want to see the live performances as well... Now we wait for the final date which will be around 10th-15th March... (I guess)
