Supernova by name... Not entirely by nature...
The ten finalists took to the stage at LTV's Studio 6 in the hope of representing their country at Eurovision in Malmo.
Kicking it off is the incredible duet, presented in a brilliant style. Vestules with "Kur?"... The song is in Latvian and the shift between the two, and their crescendo... An amazing start!!
Then... Avei writed on a box with "Mine", channelling her inner Miley Cyrus during her fembot period 15 years ago... It was okay tho.
Following this, underwhelming performances by Papīra Lidmašīnas with "Mind Breaker", fan-fun-fest "The Cat's Song" by Katrina Gupalo (bizarre), and Ecto's "Outsider"...
Was the show that burned bright and died out already??? Bring on song 6!
And the gorgeously bald, REM-esque balladier brought sincerity, passion and a gorgeous song/lyric to brighten the world, with "Hollow" ... Another exceptional performance.
Back to dullsville with "Tick Tock" by Saint Levica... And whatever Edvards Strazdiņš thought he was doing, it wasn't for me...
Funkinbiz with the only other Latvian song lived thwir best life, albeit withoit the best result...
Finally, Alekss Silvers dark dance pop closed the show with a whole lot of style, perhaps without matching substance...
Intervals and hosts and count downs and all the things that go with a selection... But there ia only one winner right!?
As you can tell, i loved just 2 of the 10, and one of those was crowned winner, and will represent Latvia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024...
CONGRATULATIONS....
Dons, with the incredible "Hollow"!
Woot!
p.s. Vestules' "Kur" came second...
