And soon I'll be happy with drowning in the rain: An Ode to the Amazing Songs We Lost in the Eurovision National Final Season 2024

YouTube Playlist Here

Disclaimer: I do not believe that a certain country should be allowed to participate in ESC due to the genocide that they are engaging in. Here are resources to help the people of Palestine 🇵🇸

National final season always means that we lose some fantastic songs that won’t ever get to grace to the big ESC stage, but I can memorialize all the other tracks I love here. This list contains the songs that got away, as well as some of the guilty pleasures, and songs I simply enjoy listening to, from the NF season of 2024.

Note that this is my personal taste, so I might be missing something you jive with. Songs are arranged by flow, not in a ranking. Some videos I likely will have to replace with another upload at some point. I went with studio recordings to be consistent (barring the bonus track).

This playlist is in no way meant to put down the actual winners.

Now that the national final season is over, I want to share the list of my personal winners of each NF grouped by how I feel about the actual results. In each group the songs are listed in alphabetical order (by country).

✅My winner won and I love their song

🇭🇷 Mama ŠČ! by Let 3

🇫🇮 Cha Cha Cha by Käärija

🇱🇻 Aijā by Sudden Lights

🇲🇩 Soarele şi Luna by Pasha Parfeni

🇵🇹 Ai Coração by Mimicat

🇷🇴 D.G.T (Off and On) by Theodor Andrei

They're all somewhere in my Top 10, but 🇵🇹 and 🇷🇴 are still at risk of dropping out of it if any of the 3 songs yet to be released are good enough.

✅My winner won, but I don't care about their song anyway

🇦🇱 Duje by Albina & familja Kelmendi

❌My winner didn't win and, even though I really wanted them to win, I'm still okay* with the actual choice

🇧🇪 ça m'ennuie pas by Chérine

🇨🇿 ghosting by Pam Rabbit

🇪🇪 Venom by OLLIE

🇩🇪 Misfit by Lonely Spring

🇮🇹 Splash by Colapesce and Dimartino

🇳🇴 Love You in a Dream by Elsie Bay

🇷🇸 Novi plan drugi san by Filip Baloš

🇪🇸 Quiero Arder by Agoney/Arcadia by Megara (Benidorm was too good to just pick one)

🇺🇦 Колискова by КRUTЬ

*'okay' may range from 'I love this song now' to 'I barely accepted it won', but I don't want to go into too many details here

❌I wasn't too attached to my winner and the actual winner is decent enough, so whatever

🇮🇸 Ég styð þína braut/Together We Grow by Silja Rós og Kjalar

🇮🇪 Midnight Summer Night by CONNOLLY

🇱🇹 Šauksmas by Gabrielius Vagelis

🇲🇹 Guess What by Eliana Gomez Blanco

🇸🇪 Släpp alla sorger by Nordman

❌I wasn't too attached to my winner, but I'm still mad about the results. Some of the worst possible choices were made.

🇩🇰 Lige her by Søren Torpegaard Lund

🇸🇲 FUOCO E BENZINA by XGIOVE

❌A crime against humanity

🇵🇱 Gladiator by Jann

[camryemerald]

ok so now we have all the songs, ill put in my two cents for who i think should qualify from mesc's semi finals (in no particular order, numbers are just there so i can count correctly):

Sarah Bonicci - "Loop" (SF1)

2. Dominic Cini - "Bewsa" (SF1)

3. Sopranique - "Empire" (SF2)

4. Haley Azzopardi - "Tell Me That It's Over" (SF2)

5. Denise Mercieca - "Mara" (SF2)

6. Karin Duff - "Breaking Bad" (SF3)

7. Thea Aqualina - "Blood Stream" (SF3)

8. Erba' - "Sirena" (SF4)

i couldnt really make an exact opinion for the last four so id probably be happy with any combo of:

Eliana Gomez Blanco - "There's Only Flowers" (SF1)

Oxygyn - "Cloudmaker" (SF1)

Franklin Calleja - "Puppet" (SF2)

Miguel Bonello - "Better Off Alone" (SF3)

Lisa Gauci - "Breathe" (SF4)

Ryan Hili - "Karma" (SF4)

out of all of these my favorite is tied between Bewsa, Loop, Breaking Bad, and Sirena but we'll see how things go when we have a proper stage to work with

MUSIC - VIDEO COVER ELIANA GOMEZ BLANCO

[eurovision-del]

Malta are one of the many countries selecting their Eurovision act this Saturday! I listened to all the snippets when they were first released, then decided I’d wait until after all the live shows were done and the semi-finalists were announced before ranking them – 40 songs is a lot to go through after all!

The Busker – Dance (Our Own Party)

Cheryl – La La Land

Giada – I Depend on You

Nathan – Creeping Walls

Greta Tude – Sound of My Stilettos

Christian Arding – Eku Ċar

Brooke – Checkmate

Eliana Gomez Blanco – Guess What

Maxine Pace – Alone

Geo Debono – The Mirror

Bradley Debono – Blackout

Andre' – Broken Hill

Fabrizio Faniello – Try To Be Better

Ryan Hili – In the Silence

Mikhail – Leħen Fiċ-Ċpar

Dario Bezzina – Bridle Road

Dan – It’ll Be OK

Ian – On My Own

Matt Blxck – UP.

Mark Anthony Bartolo – Tears

Stefan – Heartbreaker

Dominic and Anna – Whatever Wind May Blow

Klinsmann – Piranha

Chris Grech – Indescribable

Even cut down from the original 40 songs, this was still a slog to get though. A lot of the songs frustrated me or were just dull which didn’t put me in a great mood for listening to whatever came next. However, there were a couple of bright points here and there.

My standout was Dance (Our Own Party), which is easily the catchiest and most distinct sounding song here. That beat is so funky and the sax line is great. I like the delivery and performance from the lead singer, it’s cool but also has a slightly awkward, relatable quality to it. This is definitely the entry I had the most fun with!

I also really liked Cheryl’s La La Land, which, being a rock song, was always going to catch my attention. The verses build the energy well, and although I don’t think the chorus quite delivers the intensity I was hoping for, it’s still good. It might not be the most hard-hitting rock track, but Cheryl is a good vocalist and confident performer, and I had a good time with this one.

Giada really impressed me with her vocals, I Depend On You is a pretty average song, but she really elevated it with her performance. If Malta wants to play their game of selecting an artist then giving them a completely new song, she’d be a great option! On the opposite end of things, I enjoyed Creeping Walls with its dark pop sound, but felt Nathan’s performance could have been a little stronger. It’s got a lot of potential though!

I’d love to see all four of these songs in the final, but I’ll be rooting for The Busker to win the whole thing! I reckon Malta will struggle to qualify again this year no matter what they pick, but they’re the act I think have the best chance. It’s hard to predict what any of these songs might look like with proper staging, but since they were already entertaining just by themselves I’m optimistic they could put on a good show at Eurovision, hopefully with this song!

Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2019 countdown: 3 days left!

We Are More - Eliana Gomez Blanco, Malta 🇲🇹        [x]

[escunited]

Eliana Gomez Blanco to Represent Malta at Junior Eurovision 2019!

[akihsulkaz]

Junior Eurovision 2019 Pre-Show Top 19

So this is my first time looking forward to JESC since back then I couldn’t care less but like, hey why not for once? So here’s my top 19 before the show! It was unfortunate I didn’t end up posting my ranking for ESC 2019 but this is what you’ll get for now. 

Do remember that I’ll probably have quite different opinions than what others have. So please don’t go shitting on me for how I ranked/commented on the songs. Honestly the rankings from 7-12 feel quite interchangeable for me since I can’t really decide which I love more. But here goes my top 19 (with shitty commentary that’s probably outdated)!

19. Erin Mai - Calon yn Curo (Heart Beating) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 I’m gonna get so much hate for this. I just found it utterly boring. Other than that, the percussion seems too soft? And the strings are too loud. I just found it boring and near unlikeable for me for some reason.

18. Joana Almeida - Ven Camigo (Come With Me) 🇵🇹 When the first part of the song came in, I thought this was going to be some Electra Heart rip-off. But then the rest of the song came in and I knew this was definitely getting low. While I know this is Junior Eurovision, Joana's voice is just too…childish for me. Maybe I’m being too harsh since I’m typically not watching JESC. Other than that, I generally didn't like the melody nor the instrumental. The only thing I liked was the lyrics. Which is weird since I usually kinda like these types of songs? But it just didn’t come off as good.

17. Liza Misnikova - Pepelny (Ashen) 🇧🇾 This song reminded me a lot of "Like It," to be honest. Though funnily enough, I prefer Zena's vocals, but prefer this song's instrumentals. I actually enjoyed the instrumentals, the vocals and melody itself not too much. Though overall I'm not too much into it anyway, so yeah.

16. Isea Çili - Mikja ime fëmijëri 🇦🇱 I like the story/concept of the song though the lyrics itself seem pretty eh to me. Albania has some pretty good vocals in general so it's unsurprising even Isea has some, too. Though the song itself is also pretty bland for me, just like the singing itself.

15. Marta Viola - La Voce Della Terra 🇮🇹 I feel bad for putting it this low, especially when I usually rank Italy so high. I personally find it boring. That's not to say it's a bad song. But yeah, it's not that great for me. Marta's voice is good for the song, however. But it just doesn’t stand out that much for me.

14. Tatyana Mezhentseva and Denberel Oorzhak - A Time For Us 🇷🇺 Seeing the title, I was like, "What, like the mass song?" That was just random though, lol. I…actually liked it, and somehow unlike some others' opinions, I actually kinda like Denberel's voice. Though it has a weak start. I personally just really liked the last part and mostly just that, which is why it’s lower than I probably would’ve given.

13. Jordan Anthony - We Will Rise 🇦🇺 No offense to Aussies, but for some reason I don't really have high expectations for Australia's songs. But this song was actually really good in my opinion. Jordan's voice fits in with the song and it's overall just a nice song. Problem is, it's not overly nice nor does it stand out as much. But I think this might end up doing well.

12. Giorgi Rostiashvili - We Need Love 🇬🇪 I'm seeing that this song seems quite underrated. I personally enjoy it. It's a nice "feel-good" song. I always end up swaying my head to this song. Though I don't expect it to win, it's a personal favourite of mine and it's probably the song in the list I would listen to when I just want to sit down and get myself happy and stuff. Just overall a nice vibe.

11. Eliana Gomez Blanco - We Are More 🇲🇹 Me ranking the songs starting with “We” is pure coincidence. Anyways,wWhile I adore this song, it doesn't have as much kick as I would've probably liked for this. Especially for the chorus. The rest is good, and I really like her vocals. Though sidenote, Eliana looks really mature for her age, she probably looks older than I am haha.

10. Yerzhan Maxim - Armanyńnan Qalma 🇰🇿 This is an overly unpopular opinion. But boy, this song comes straight outta a Disney movie. And Disney songs are hella rad. I don't see people liking this song enough. Though that's fair seems it would feel more like a typical ballad. But this kid managed to make me like it. This is one of the songs I definitely don't think will win, but still deserves some love all the way.

9. Matheu - Dans Met Jou 🇳🇱 I have a feeling this song would do great in the televoting because a lot of people will probably get tired of the "SAVE THE WORLD!" message and just want a song about a guy and his dudes chillin' and dancin' with the girl he likes. And while I love the damn other songs, I can't help but liking it because it's such an upbeat and carefree song.

8. Karina Ignatyan - Colours of Your Dream 🇦🇲 This is a really catchy and upbeat song which pretty much says to colour your life with happiness and stuff. The vocals are nice and the beat definitely gets your groove as it stays true to its lyrics of feeling great.

7. Darija Vračević - Podigni Glas (Raise Your Voice) 🇷🇸 Okay, I heckin' love this one. Lyrics are nice, the song is quite consistent throughout, and I just really love the last part where they all drop down and didn't continue the line to say, "Oh look, it's too late now." And just hhhhhhh, I didn't have this as my favourite because while I have high praise for this song, it doesn't seem like a song people would vote for. Plus I feel like it won't stand out enough, plus Darija needs some little bit more improvement in her voice.

6. Anna Kearney - Banshee 🇮🇪 I feel like I speak for everyone when I say this song is probably better than most of the songs Ireland has recently sent in the ESC. I like this song as well, but I have fears that people might sleep on this. Plus I have a soft spot for fantasy-esque songs so lol. Anna’s voice is great and the message itself I find really nice.

5. Mila Moskov - Fire 🇲🇰 The chorus was stuck in my damn head the entire day. I love a good lot about this song, and I wished it was longer. But unfortunately, it isn't. I honestly don’t know what else to say about this, other than maybe the lyrics would’ve been nicer, but it’s still decent.

4. Carla - Bim Bam Toi 🇫🇷 I think everyone liked this song. And I agree. It's super duper fun and catchy and I actually like the dance in the music video and how much fun and enjoyment Carla has. It's a personal thing that I'm not too much of a fan of the non-singingish parts, but that's really only because I can't sing them without sounding/feeling too awkward. And I like singing the French songs since I actually can read partial French so yeah. Overall, really neat song, but not my winner.

3. Sophia Ivanko - The Spirit of Music 🇺🇦 This song is the number one candidate of "songs that need to be longer." I love it. It's a nice and simple song and boy, I just love those "hoo"s. Maybe because I just like birds and to that owls, but I really do. It's my favourite part of the song.

2. Melani Garcia - Marte 🇪🇸 A lot of the entries this year pertains to saving Earth, but Marte focuses more on saving the ocean in line to saving the world. And can I just say how much I love the high notes? This kid can sing! I was actually contemplating if I would put this in first, but ended up putting it at a close second.

1. Viki Gabor - Superhero 🇵🇱 You know what always ends up being such bops? Pop songs about saving the world, that is! This was one of the songs I instantly loved from the moment I began listening to it. I can definitely feel myself dancing along to the song and such. This was also one of the songs I wished was just longer.

So yeah that’s all! Good luck to everyone^^

Junior Eurovision 2019 my top 19 Pre-Live Show

Well hello people around the world!! It’s me again with this provisional top 19 for this Junior Eurovision that will take place on Gliwice-Silesia on November, maybe this will change after the contest takes place and I’ll post another top with the final reactions and actual results... so let’s go!! 

1st Place: FRANCE/Carla-Bim bam toi 

After Angelina’s 2nd place last year, France send us this absolute banger, this is infectiously catchy, the lyrics are so nice, the music is crazy but this is what my inner child loves, also I’m expecting a lot for this entry, any of my top 5 songs would make wonderful winners, so GO FRANCE as well. 

2nd Place: SPAIN/Melani García-Marte 

Spain returned and what a return!!!! Melani is such a great singer, she definitively has the vocals, the lyrics are pretty, the music is breathtaking and I always want to cry with this song, GO SPAIN!!!! 

3rd Place: POLAND/Viki Gabor-Superhero 

If someone told me that Poland was going to be a powerhouse at JESC, I wouldn’t have believed it, but this latest years they have been sending bops, and this isn’t the exception, this is pure awesomeness, Viki sings pretty nice and I don’t mind Poland winning twice in succession, I’d be down for it. 

4th Place: SERBIA/Darija Vračević-Podigni glas (Raise your voice)

Another song I think is going to do very well, this builds up very well and I hope everything will be on place on the final night, the music is strong, the message is good and well, I just love this entry. 

5th Place: IRELAND/Anna Kearny-Banshee

This is pure perfection, her voice, the music, the feeling, for once... DON’T ROB IRELAND!!!!!! I want this in the top 10, they deserve it and Anna has a very pretty voice. And we don’t have the final version, so I hope it will slay. 

6th Place: UKRAINE/Sophia Ivanko-The spirit of music 

Ahhhhhh I remember when I had this song last, but the revamp lifted this to the sky, a relaxing feeling, a nice singer, it has a nice hook and wow, I fell in love with this, such a pleasant entry. 

7th Place: THE NETHERLANDS/Matheu-Dans met jou 

A pure pop banger, a nice singer with nice vocals, what can be wrong with this song, very catchy and for sure this will finish in the top 10, GO MATHEU.  

8th Place: NORTH MACEDONIA/Mila Moskov-Fire 

Ranking this high places was very difficult because I love all the songs that will come after this. This was a pleasant surprise and this is a very strong entry, so PLEASE I want North Macedonia to finish higher than 12th place for once. 

9th Place: ALBANIA/Isea Çili-Mikja ime fëmijëri 

Awwwwww I love this song, this is amazing and Albania is giving us a lot of bops, so I hope this won’t be underrated and have a good placing, a lovely lovely ballad. 

10th Place: MALTA/Eliana Gomez Blanco-We are more  

WEEEEEEEEEE MALTESE, and wow this is a very good song!!!! Also I think Eliana has amazing vocals so this for sure will finish top 5, the music is wow and yes, I like it. 

11th Place: WALES/Erin Mai-Calon yn curo (Heart beating) 

WAAAAAALES please don’t let this song come last, maybe the revamp isn’t what I expected but it warms my heart, also she sings so well and who knows... this can give a surprise. 

12th Place: PORTUGAL/Joana Almeida-Vem comigo (Come with me)

Welcome to the clown opinion of this top: this is my guilty pleasure (as much as all the Portuguese entries at this point), this promises to be an upbeat song but it’s kinda trance? Maybe someone left the button pressed and the song has a repetitive beat, this aside, I like it and hope this will do as better as expected. 

13th Place: ARMENIA/Karina Ignatyan-Colors of your dream

Here’s where my stan list starts. This song is very goooooooood, I love her voice, the music is very nice, this overall feels like a pleasant song and I want this to do well, go Karina!!!

14th Place: BELARUS/Liza Misnikova-Pepelny (Ashen) 

Hmmmmm... at this point I think this is my grower because it has a catchy beat and maybe the song isn’t 100% of my taste but it’s Belarus, they always do great things on stage and this won’t be an exception, maybe this will be my grower?

15th Place: AUSTRALIA/Jordan Anthony-We will rise 

Wow this youngster for sure has the vocals, the song isn’t that special for me but I can see this in the top 10 with the help of the juries, this needed a bit of an oomph to place it higher on my list, a nice pop tune. 

16th Place: GEORGIA/Giorgi Rostiashvili-We got need love 

This has a nice feel to it, a relaxing vibe, the beat is amazing and I see myself ranking this higher after the show, also, he has a nice voice so let’s see how this goes. 

17th Place: ITALY/Marta Viola-La voce della terra 

Again, Italy has had great entries in their short JESC story, but this is much in the line from last year, the lyrics are very good but this fails to impress me in a quite strong field of songs, I wonder how will this finish in the final results because I said the same about What is love and it finished top 10 so... you never know 

18th Place: KAZAKHSTAN-Yerzhan Maksim-Armanyńnan Qalma  

After their amazing and wig snatching debut, this feels like a letdown, this is very Disney-ish (and at some point I imagine him at an ice castle, wonder why) the music has great elements and he seems like a lovely lad, maybe this will be a growe but for now, I’ll place it here  

19th Place: RUSSIA-Tatyana Mezhentseva and Denberel Oorzhak-A time for us 

In this very bottom of the list we find Russia, I love the voice of Denberel but the song is very... meh compared to the other entries, as with all the kids I wish them the best and good luck but this isn’t for me

Me arden los ojos, mi más honesta amiga. —Pero los tuyos ya no arderán, palomita. Sé que eres libre. Ahora sí. Verdaderamente libre. No como esas falsas libertades en las que nos vemos envueltos año tras año. Como ésa, vil culpable de tu muerte. ​—Ay, mi amiga... —susurraba mientras acariciaba sus blancas alas—. Algún día hallaremos al culpable. Algún día se le hará pagar a la infamia. Algún día el cielo llorará decepcionado su azulejo. Lágrimas de tristeza y dolor llorará. Llorará hasta desentonarse y quedar limpio de toda impureza. Y al mirar hacia arriba hallaremos un espejo inmenso. Toda una bóveda reflectora hallaremos. Ese día nos veremos a nosotros mismos. Entenderemos, palomita, que somos nosotros los culpables. Y lloraremos. Lloraremos tanto que las lágrimas cubrirán nuestros zapatos. Cubrirán nuestros hogares y escuelas. Nuestros trabajos. Nuestros templos. Nos cubrirán todo. En un blanco horizonte se cubrirá todo en tu honor, mi blanca amiguita. Blanco pureza, como tú. Y quedará el cielo como suelo nuevo, con nuestro reflejo ahora transformado. Desafiaremos toda ley física y ahora ese cielo será nuestro suelo. Y al mirar nuevamente hacia arriba veremos ahora pureza, blancura, te veremos a ti. ​—Hasta luego, mi delicada amiga —susurraba internamente mientras procedía con su funeral—, perdón por asesinarte. Algún día seré juzgado como es debido, y ese día será el día de la justicia. El gran día de nuestro reencuentro. El gran día de la paz.
