Mr Roy didn’t spot the English verse, and we didn’t spot it particularly, and we’re 30 yards away which worries us, because if we can’t hear it, then Europe won’t hear it.
It’s got a whole lot ‘less qualifying’ than it appeared on Friday, which also worries us, because underneath the shouting and the dancing and the prancing, there is a good song busting to get out. However, looking at Sibel today she did seem to be shrieking at me and it has lost a lot of the energy that it had on Friday for me. The star formation of choreography is worrying and looks messed up.
I fear it will suffer from the Ukraine factor and that whilst both of the songs are good in their own way – they seem to cancel each other out as they both fight for the surprise qualifier vote. They both want to come 10th in the Semi Final – though I fear that in reality, only one will come tenth, and I don’t know yet which one it is going to be. I really fear for this song and its chances on this performance.
