Nick: A member of the OnEurope team has been talking this up all week, which has obviously predisposed me to pick holes in it. It’s not really all that, I can hear a little bit of ‘Life Is A Book’ in there somewhere, but it somehow fails to lift me up and carry me along in the way Tose did … eventually. It’s alright, seems like a perfectly competent performance, but it doesn’t make me go “Ooh” at all in the way I’ve been going “Ooh” all morning. Never write them off, but this could be the year when they miss the Top 10 in the semi. It won’t be by much, mind.
Phil: Macedonia will piss all over the competition. Strong vocally and typically Karolina, this has divided the camp into two. I think that it is the total package and should qualify easily with or without assistance. The others think it doesn’t stand a change and they think it is “all right”. They are clearly deranged! It looks good on stage and she belts it out alright. Money on Macedonia! 😉
