Melodi Grand Prix: Semi Final One (Tonight 18.45 GMT)

[Sheena]

Is that a DIDGERIDOO?

I thought POST ROLF they’d been (rightly) banned.

 

[Tisch]

Isn't this just Ela and Cleopatra cut and pasted?

NOT A BAD THING

 

[COB]

I do like a dance break where you leave the other girls to do the impressive stuff

 

[Dark Carnival]

LOVE IT

 

[Sheena]

That felt alright but in a “17th for Georgia” kind of way

 

[Penelope]

MESMERED

 

[FetchFugly]

This is QUITE LIGHT on SONG. Not that I am saying it shouldn't qualify...

 

[VoR]

I love how Gothminister is clearly your classic middle aged goth who works a dreary job in IT on weekdays

Bless his wife getting into Elizabeth Bathory drag in solidarity though.

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

The ratings of the public on the VGLista page so far. Basically the Norwegian public scoring the songs live out of 6 during the show

1. Mathilde SPZ feat. Chris Archer and Slam Dunk - "Woman Show" - 2 out of 6
2. Fredrik Halland - "Stranded" - 2 out of 6
3. Myra - "Heart on Fire" - 3 out of 6
4. Gothminister - "We Come Alive" - 4 out of 6

 

[GinAg (39)]

That was meh rising to ok.

 

[Sheena]

Who’s the LONG DRINK OF COCK in blue?

 

[Tisch]

I've listened a whole TWO TIMES to the MGP selection and I can't place neither the singer nor the song literally at all.

SEND IT NORWAY

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

Also what was the point in a Chanel style dancebreak in the last song if she was going to give a Corinna May shuffle energy to it instead?

Great other than that.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Who’s the LONG DRINK OF COCK in blue?

Your mum

 

[VoR]

HERE SHE COMES

 

[Sheena]

COME ON MARGO

 

[GinAg (39)]

YAY R MAGS

 

[FetchFugly]

Margo has come to show them how it is done.

Baby Susanne is in attendance.

 

[FetchFugly]

That white dress really was MAGNIFICENT

 

[Sheena]

Playing all Margo’s old SMASHES to remind the public JUST WHAT THEY’RE DEALING WITH HERE

 

[RJN]

I'm here just in time for Margaret

 

[Sheena]

DIFFERENT CLASS

 

[Lucille]

Will you ever let me come inside

 

[RJN]

Will you ever let me come inside

its about your search for somewhere to live

 

[Tisch]

DIFFERENT CLASS

Yeah it doesn't win the hyperbole OMG vote (Gothminister does) but it wins the sensible "no, actually this is superior don't be silly" vote

 

[Sheena]

That big note needed to go a step higher though…

 

[Penelope]

She cannot dance for piss

 

[Tisch]

The BORED KIDS though. Come on, it's cold in Norway, they need to be in bed by 5.

 

[Sheena]

Will you ever let me come inside

Words noted bottom Lucille has never said before.

 

[win_the_game]

Great song but not sold on the C&A office-to-evening wear.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Magnificent.

Tighten up the performance to I Feed You levels if this reaches Eurovision and you've got a classic Norwegian Eurovision hit.

 

[COB]

I found the awkward dancing cute but I wonder if it might harm her chances

 

[GinAg (39)]

Her dance moves were more Haddaway than Loreen.

 

[Sheena]

Magnificent.

Tighten up the performance to I Feed You levels if this reaches Eurovision and you've got a classic Norwegian Eurovision hit.

This

It’s not a Eurovision winner but it’s a comfortable top ten with a better staging that probably isn’t possible on this budget/ stage.

 

[Lucille]

It was OKAY, although my BUSS is hardly AFLAME, which week is SUPER ROB?

 

[FetchFugly]

She looked nervous at first but the staging was a cut above and the performance came together by the end.

Let your love RUN WIIIIIIILLLLLLDDDDD

 

[Sheena]

WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

 

[GinAg (39)]

It's very Röyksopp, which is of course never a chore.

 

[VoR]

WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

3/6 will qualify for the finals.

 

[FetchFugly]

I do think getting Baby Susanne to add a little vocal support off in the corner of the stage also wouldn't hurt.
