Expected place. top ten
highlights
the belly dancing is cool
lowlights
she looks so serious through the whole song.
Turkey - Hadise 'Düm Tek Tek'
I dont get it. I have to admit, about a week or so ago I saw some of the details of the favourites for this years competition. Norway was favourite and this is second. this! this is second. I just dont get it. the performance was dull and boring, the costumes were average and the only highlight was that the belly dancing was cool, and well... if good belly dancing gave you votes, Turkey would have won this gig more than just the once.
Would it hurt Hadise to smile as she performed? is her makeup that thick that it would crack if she did? f you radiate happiness, that gets you votes... sometimes.
maybe they have added to the music for the competition version, I dont know. this is just Ethno-pop and I can see Holly Valance covering this in about 6 months, that doesnt man its good... I mean... Holly Valance....
Ghost of Eurovision Past: Semiha Yanki 'Seninle Bir Dakika' 1975. look like they sent Raggidy Anne to Eurovision and she sung like a whole verse of La's. well it was the first attempt at Eurovision for Turkey, one hoped it would get better from there....
