Half of these songs were more hurt by bad live vocals than staging.

@matildawallman50 10 месяцев назад

I actually really like Roxens staging, for me it works so well with the song, she just needed more vocal support to be able to handle it

@Africkinggod 2 месяца назад

The flaw was that it was too much for roxxen😢 (having to move constantly and being dragged around with not a lot of time to breathing space)

@teddytete.mp3 Месяц назад

I met ronela in 2022 during pride week in Madrid randomly on a restaurant. We spoke for a whole hour she told me that not only Eurovision wasn't helpful but the Albanian tv just threw her under the bus. Budget was limited and nobody helped and the costumes were random costumes she already had from other performances... This probably happens more than we think but 2022 was just a whole mess

@giovanniscg8540 Месяц назад

Ronela is just a mediocre performer, and that shitty exhibition just showed it all. She's just incapable of assuming her own responsibilities claiming that her song was bad and she couldn't sing, just like La Zarra the year after with Evideflop

That's so sad, "Sekret" is such a banger in the studio version and definitely one of my ESC favourites.

@NerdyLlama21 Месяц назад

This is very interesting because the whole time it looked like she didn't enjoy the eurovision experience at all. She was tense at interviews and nervous when talking about the staging. I was in awe when I saw her open the SF, but for some reason there is always a favorite that is a surprise NQ. It only goes to show even more that the active fans are not representative of the public opinion.

yea, but something more needed to happen obviously since the odds went from top before the show, down to the bottom

@Hectorien_ Месяц назад

5:10 Her staging was also ruined by all the flags waving and the very visible crowd. It ruined the effect of a mysterious ballad and the sense that the viewer is watching a music video. To prove this is true, both times loreen participated she used this idea, and guess what? she went to the final both times and even won both times

@NerdyLlama21 Месяц назад

I never realized that it's what ruins the staging for me. I mean, there's not a lot of ways to stage such a song, but at least they could've kept it mysterious.

@itsbigbunny892 Месяц назад

I actually think most of these NQ needed a bit more vocal support, a lot of them didn't sound like the studio version which is also a reason why they didn't qualify

@DarkFuture19 7 месяцев назад

I'd add "Telemoveis" - they were originally quite high(around 10.-15.) in betting offices, but killed whole staging with those green "clumsy lizard" costumes. Compare their ESC semis performance with NF one in fluffy white costumes and you'll see the damage done.

@Jme_hde Месяц назад

The issue was less so the outfitting and more so the staging, it felt quite empty with just him and his dancer. More dancers would’ve made this more interesting, perhaps if they were in the lizard green outfits and the singer was still in the fluffy white outfit to contrast.

@@danikim235 To be fair on “Don't Break Me” we have no idea of how exactly they would have staged it in Rotterdam, it could have easily elevated the song the same way the staging did the year prior where literally everyone was writing Australia off as not only a non-qualifier, but also the next Barbara Dex award recipient.

Ireland 2015, Malta 2015, Switzerland 2013, Israel 2013, Iceland 2016, and Latvia 2018 are some examples of great songs and didnt have anything actually wrong with the staging or the vocals, but would might have qualified if their stagings were more impactful or had minor changes. Belarus 2018 and Estonia 2021 are examples of songs I don't like and that were competing in bl00dbath semifinals but would probably get more points if their staging was right.

Eye-Cue from N. Macedonia (2018): Even though they gave it away for Jana Burceska in 2017 over a bad stage setup, Jana's song was _waaaaaay_ better... Jana's, on the other hand, should have resembled that of a _mini-rave;_ flashing lights and lasers, with one guy with a keyboard in the back on one side, amother with another machine (drum machine?) on the other side, and 2 background vocalists way in the back behind her, and she commanded the rest of the stage alone. She was actually pregnant at the time. She was my #4 before the 2017 contest.

@sgtBilko75 26 дней назад

Israel from 2012 was a fantastic song. But the decision to add the two dancers didn’t enhance the performance. Actual live bands always come across looking awkward playing along not plugged in, pretending to play. I would advise bands to stage them more together, instead of ‘planting’ them static over the podium

@ELisa-qf2mw 23 дня назад

Going all-in for a minimal performance, maybe only the singer onstage with nobody and nothing else, is a high risk in ESC, and can only work for really emotional songs and outstanding vocal performances (France 2024 is a good example). On the other hand, I feel some other entries miss the sense of "less is more" and add so much visuals that it takes away from the actual song and performance (here in Italy we would jokingly call our 2015 screen visuals "the 1375 euros banknote). Some things that scream" bad staging" to me are: backing vocalists and/or dancers doing their thing too far away from the main performer; musicians, on the opposite, standing too crammed onto each other; too extreme and flashy use of lights; the singer dancing and/or moving around so much that it impacts their vocal performance (I'm still wondering how could Sakis Rouvas' voice not give the least crack as he energetically jumped down a meter-and-something tall pedestal though); outfits that scream "unique at all costs".
