Ukraine 2021: Go_A - SHUM

[ButterTart]

Ukraine have qualified and won with some absolute TRASH. This is a AAA banger, there’s no chance it’s going to flop.

I am worried that SHUM can be disqualified...... look at this video!
For me this could be the best Ukrainian entry ever (joined with Jamala)

 

[Dark Carnival]

omg what?

 

[OutSynk]

omg what?

@ButterTart jinxed it.

QUICK let's get it down before the EBU sees it!

 

[Apoca]

I'll report it for breaching international LAW.

GO_A will not be denied AGAIN.

 

[OutSynk]

Omg they ARE fucked aren’t they.

 

[OutSynk]

With this song anyway.

 

[Lucille]

 

[Soldi]

More than likely not. Who the fuck even are the people in the video? They could’ve filmed that in fucking Wolverhampton for all we know.

Hun it doesn’t matter where it was filmed.

 

[Soldi]

Hun it doesn’t matter where it was filmed.

I think it depends on whether or not it was released commercially. If not, the EBU won’t care if it’s had a few hundred views on YouTube.

 

[Dark Carnival]

It's just a bunch of PEASANTS signing 20 seconds of a song, I wouldn't worry. I'd worry if it's an actual Ukrainian folk song.

 

[Lucille]

Yeah I read the rules I don’t think there’s anything specifically disallowing this?

 

[OutSynk]

Even the ESC forums aren’t discussing this yet. Let’s delete the above post and forget about this little incident.

 

[Lucille]

Or at least keep Moopy in lockdown till after Eurovision.

 

[sewerynsven]

I really want them to Go to ESC and win! Solovey was flawless....and SHUM is even better... but this video appeared today on Polish site...stupid site stupid video.heh

 

[Soldi]

Even if Shum is disqualified they’ll just send one of the other songs that were in contention.

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Cannot WAIT to see how this translates on stage
Assuming they qualify, I can see this being one of those songs that goes BIG on the televote, but also jury poison

I'd also expect it to do better on the final televote, than the semi-final - assuming casuals will lap this up.

 

[Lucille]

THIS IS STILL INCREDIBLE

 

[Dark Carnival]

On balance, this is still my favourite of the year so far SORRY SATAN!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

So this briefly leaked on Youtube and has already been pulled...

However, I am afraid to report that it has changed, and not for the better

 

[COB]

The same backing track (cut to three minutes) but an entirely different vocal melody and lyrics I've listened to the original so much I couldn't even tell if I found it better or worse, it's just so different!

 

[Lucille]

Oh maybe they got in trouble stealing from those old ladies!

 

[Lucille]

I am, suitably TERRIFIED.

 

[Эулия]

The same backing track (cut to three minutes) but an entirely different vocal melody and lyrics

So a totally different song, then

IT'LL BE FINE

 

[Эулия]

Does the SCREAM at the end remain?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Does the SCREAM at the end remain?

Thankfully it does

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

OMG I feel the GAY PANIC SIREN has been officially sounded!!

 

[Эулия]

Thankfully it does

PRAISE BE TO THE LORD

 

[Lucille]

 

[Soldi]

I’m already protesting in front of the Ukrainian Embassy.

 

[Lucille]

It’s very JARRING after being so accustomed to the original, I’m hoping I GET USED TO IT

 

[Эулия]

OMG I feel the GAY PANIC SIREN has been officially sounded!!

I'm getting VERONA REMIX PTSD

 

[Эулия]

It’s very JARRING after being so accustomed to the original, I’m hoping I GET USED TO IT

I've not listened to the original in a while, and obviously for good reason given this horrifying turn of events

THANKS A LOT RAVEN QUEEN IN UKRAINIAN OBVIOUSLY

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Oh I don't think that's TOO BAD although it sounds a bit like a sped-up increasingly drunken evening in a Ukrainian SOCIAL CLUB. i'm quite into the extended UKRAINIAN WHISTLE PARTS.

It sounds MUCH HARDER to sing live than the original though, so GOOD LUCK WITH THAT queen of the ravens

 

[Эулия]

Oh this is fine

PANIC OVER

 

[ZenGiraffe]

On second listen, it's worse. It just doesn't work as well at all.

 

[Lucille]

I’ve listened twice and it gets better once you’re brain starts to forget the old melody, I’m hoping that’s a demo in the leak as it does sound a bit ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES.
