Singing isn't only about range and all that technical stuff. Ivi is a very likeable individual with a distinct deep voice. Her voice stands out. And with a deeper voice like hers it makes no sense to have her sing any high notes. Just keep her in a safe range and have the fullness of her voice come out. And we have not seen the finished product just yet either. Her voice is still developing and once she starts devoting herself to her music full time she will be even better.
@MariaHeiko90 How can someone be a brilliant singer if they are out of tune and can't sing any of her high notes? In her new album - which has some nice songs in it! - there are songs in which she doesn't manage to sing any of the high notes even in a recorded version. It's very painful. One doesn't need to be a great singer to do well in Eurovision, so she might do well with a good song, but she's not a good singer...
@MariaHeiko90 Ivi is many things, but a brilliant singer is not one of them. She's very limited vocally and she is unable to sing anything proper in the high range - she runs out of air. However, Nini isn't a great singer either.
