Beautiful songs

Rehearsals have started and my rankings are down to the final 10! Only 1 out of my top 10 has rehearsed yet, so who knows if one of these acts (or the other remaining 5) will have a performance that will change my and everyone else's mind.

10. Serbia
Zeljko Joksimovic - “Nije ljubav svar”
Reaction: Very Balkan ballad, a little Celtic even. It’s not as good as “Lane moje” but it’s better than “Oro.” A ballad that you would typically expect from him, starting off slow and ending powerful.
Best Part: Last chorus
Rating: 4/5

9. Bulgaria
Sofi Marinova- “Love unlimited”
Reaction: A catchy dance song with a multilingual message. The use of multiple languages isn’t cheesy or annoying as with Romania’s song in 2007, which did a similar “I love you in multiple languages” thing. This uses a greater number of languages and fits them together in the chorus better.
Best Part: I love you so maaaaach”
Rating: 4/5

8. Latvia
Anmary- “Beautiful Song”
Reaction:Too charming for its own good. In that special Latvian English. Just so goofy and earnest. Very catchy chorus. Remember when we were all excited about Banjo Laura last year? It’s kind of like that.
Best Part: Sir Mick Jagger
Rating: 4/5

7. Ukraine
Gaitana - “Be my guest”
Reaction:This is a very contemporary dance song. It has some of that David Guetta feel (some have said it sounds a lot like his “When Love Takes Over”) but that’s what’s popular now. Sure, it’s a song meant to promote soccer, but it works outside of that too.
Best Part: “I lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love you”
Rating: 4/5

6. Cyprus
Ivi Adamou - “La la love”
Reaction: A poppy, clubby teen song. It has some nice ethnic touches with the strings on the verses. The highlight is the chorus, with a catchy melody and strong drums.
Best Part: Chorus
Rating: 4/5
