Why’d Azerbaijan have to jump scare me like that 😂? All jokes aside I really enjoyed this entry. In this video I react to Azerbaijan’s entry for Eurovision 2020, “Cleopatra” by Samira Efendi.
It's nice that Azerbaijan acts as the representative for middle eastern and north african ethic sounds and elements for Eurovision, especially eith Turkey absent. Always a pleasure with Azerbaijan and so sad it won't be able to be in the contest.
Yes! Aisel is great! She was in the tough semi and the staging was amazing. Last year's entry is amazing. Azerbaijan is one of my favourite ESC countries too. Although this year's entry's is unique and clearly they have a vision for the staging/overall package when they decided on this entry, but I feel is a step back comparing to 2019 entry's quality. I find the overall package a very ESC kitsch, which borderline looks dated, it looks like it can be an entry from the 2000s where you get all the elaborated outfits/staging.
