Falling stars was another song that was in my top ten for the first semi,
I liked the upbeat song Lidia performed it well with her spaceman,
I cant believe she finished in 17th place.
Great song. But what was the story with the silver hairspray on the astronaut?? Lose a point for that, but gain a point for the same dude still wearing his delegate pass in the semi-final performance!
I’ve heard complaints that this song was cheesy, but I like it (I can belt it out in the shower [poorly I might add]). I thought Lidia’s performance was right on par. She sounded stronger than she did in the Moldovan national final, and I think her vocal range improved (which she demonstrated). But, in a competition with other songs more indicative of the times, I’m afraid the song sounded out of place. Although I’m still not able to make sense of the lyrics “when our fall torn us to pieces.”
Honestly though, the dancing astronaut didn’t add enough except to make Lidia appear stiff. Reminded me of a cross of the guy from Lithuania 2014 (“Attention”) and the dancing Montenegrin astronauts from 2013.
Secretly, I’m compelled to feed this girl a cookie, she’s painfully thin.
