I wasn't so negative about this contest before but you were kinda spilling facts. BUT I still do rly enjoy Rafa Ela's bop and Luzac's experimental track. Laura Thorn should win this tho, I actually didn't rly get the hype when I listened to all the songs the first time bc I was more moved by Rafa Ela and Luzac but Laura rly brings something special and exciting to the table. Also it's referencing ESC winner "Poupée de cire, poupée de son" by France Gall from Luxembourg 1965, marking it's 60th anniversary. Genius.
All songs in this selection except Laura Thorn will struggle to qualify if they get chosen. "La poupee monte le son" has a catchy melody that televoters are gonna like and if she sings well then she will probably get support from the juries too!
Hahaha you are right, i won't relisten, but you are GREAT !! I love what you say about perspective and Point, because I love Eurovision for the Art that it creates. The statements and perspectives and cultural influence.
GIRL DRAG THEM 😂😂😂 Honestly, I’m so sick of generic soulless pop. I want to know what Luxembourg music is like, not these rejects from other NFs. And yes, Laura needs to win. The song is an homage to the 1965 winner Poupée de cire, poupée de son, but with a cheeky twist. While that song was about France Gall being a doll, this song is about not being a doll and thinking for yourself. I think there is maaaybe a chance Luxembourg develops its own niche if they send her because it’s musically similar to Fighter from last year. Kind of a cutesy nostalgic French disco vibe. I would love that for them.
I voted on Instagram that you shouldn't react to this because I knew what you were gonna be up against but at least your frustration is kinda funny to watch 😭
The last song is giving me 'Pompeii' by Bastille but with a 'Cotton Eye Joe' twist. Great reaction btw - and it was not a waste of time for you. You are so entertaining 😂❤
Girl I didn't vote for this. I knew Luxembourg is not cooking anything. I really like Laura Thorn especially since it since to refers to their firdt victory. It would be the best song for their comeback but well...
I am so glad you said what you said. I felt like the community was gaslighting me because all of these English entries sounded like they were written by sixth graders. (Or AI) the only good entries are the French ones.
I only liked Mäna and Luzac after the live, still keeping Rhythmic Soulwave's studio version on my playlist though (Decided to react since I'm in my Luxembourg hate era)
I really enjoy Gambler's Song, Laura's song sounds to me like it is made for JESC. I am disappointed too, but I would like to see Gambler's Song or Ride at Eurovision. I don't think those songs are horrible.
I get the point about the lyrics since they are quite generic for most of the entries. However I think that there is a lot more variety in genres than last year which makes it more compelling even with 'Je danse' being on the quite experimental side. So I would not call the selection 'bad' or that it's not 'real music' because people have put time and effort into these songs which again may have generic lyrics but are musically diverse. So I can understand some points and your opinion but I personally think the criticism was a bit too harsh with some more 'extreme' negative descriptions of the songs and artists. Still love your reactions.
I've been listening to Laura's song on repeat, but yeah the overall selection is so weak, and even la poupée monte le son is really good but not really outstanding in any particular way
half of the contest is literally sounding like written-by-AI songs like LMAO??? and they will even DARE to denny this is all sounds like non-human made up sh!t, if a human wrote this you should please FIND ANOTHER JOB because you are making your writting peers look TERRIBLE, as always an honest and real opinion maxxy, love ya ❤
Haven't paid much attention to other NFs this season because there are too many. I have listened to these 7 songs, and it's the most lackluster pack I have ever seen. This is extremely generic, with the only salvageable song being Laura's. That's it. Luxembourg should do better and can do much better than this.
Ride reminds me of a song was really popular the year i graduated (2015), and if you put it in a playlist from then, most people wouldn't tell its from this year lmao 😂 Also, i still stand by statement on your Montenegro video, that Montenegro came up with a better National Final in 2 years, then Luxembourg did in their big break from ESC.
Lmao one of your best reactions yet bc same, these songs are horrible i actually was shocked. I try to be positive and objective but theres really not a lot to grab on to here.
The selection is already poor, and it’s made even worse by the terrible lyrics, which are then highlighted further with the official videos being lyric videos!! Luxembourg are offering us nothing with this NF, they might as well have not returned 😢
girl i voted no when you asked us to pick for you lmao! truly a bland selection. i wish i could’ve saved valuable minutes of my life by waiting until the winner was announced and just listening to that. my winner is no thank you but i also love laura thorn’s song!
This is giving my debut song vibes and it’s NOT great lol. The way you can just immediately tell there’s no story or plot in these songs for you to think about says a lot about the lack of creativity in Luxembourg’s national selection. It sounds like these writers just have a writers block and try to rhyme anything with anything (and choose the most obvious words to rhyme with) and it doesn’t end up coming from the heart, but rather just so that you can have written enough songs for this contest. It’s fair to say Luxembourg has to step up their game, only two of these songs have a chance to qualify in my opinion, these lyrics suck. The only songs I like in here are the ones in French… but after all maybe they’re just as bad and I just don’t understand the lyrics? Who knows tbh.
As someone who understands French fairly well, I would say your second guess is the right answer 😂😅 the lyrics to those two songs are way too obvious as well
ok Luxembourg, you will struggle to qualify this year how all the songs is so AI? nothing impactful, nothing special by the way, the song The Ride, sounds like The Nights by Avicii
I really liked this selection, but now that I'm actually paying more attention to the lyrics I realise that almost every song is completely souless..
Giiirll you look great with this look!!!
Your reaction is everything 😭

Bring back Elsie Bay as a songwriter 😂
Maybe she might finally win for the first time!
Love your BRUTAL honesty and your SERVING look!

poupee de cire was abandoned by its singer because of its meaning, and laura's song is so basic it's insane
You're so real!!
Laura Thorn By far the best one!
I voted on Instagram that you shouldn't react to this because I knew what you were gonna be up against but at least your frustration is kinda funny to watch 😭

*second. First was 1961 with Jean-Claude Pascal
@@markthivierge4347lol I'm sis stupid. Jean Claude Pascal it's one my favorite winners
I am so glad you said what you said. I felt like the community was gaslighting me because all of these English entries sounded like they were written by sixth graders. (Or AI) the only good entries are the French ones.
SAME i was SHOCKED it was unanimously voted for me to react to!!! It’s so bad!
I appreciate how honest you are about the actually ABYSMAL quality of this nf. They need to go internal immediatelyyy
I have bad news one of the AI sounding writers was Edsun
Your reaction to Je danse is literally perfect. Like it sounds like smth I SHOULD like but I just don’t
I only liked Mäna and Luzac after the live, still keeping Rhythmic Soulwave's studio version on my playlist though
(Decided to react since I'm in my Luxembourg hate era)
Their Selection for 2024 was definitely better but the Production for the Show looks still amazing
GIRL YOU ATE WITH THE LOOK!!! OMGGG, anyways! you need to react to Polish preselections too!
It so sad because last year i was into at lest 5 song and this year just 2.
Maybe next year is going to be better.
Love the reaction also.🎉
When will you react to Supernova? Love your videos!!!
Weakest selection for me this year so far tbh
I really hope Laura wins thisss
The Zero Point Five country song reminds me of The Nights by Avicii. And basically any country-folk influenced indie pop rock song from the 2010s :D
The last song reminds me of The Nights from Avicii😭 Is that what you were trying to say?
There is a saying which Imma paraphrase... These people are all talking but few of them are actually speaking.
I really enjoy Gambler's Song, Laura's song sounds to me like it is made for JESC. I am disappointed too, but I would like to see Gambler's Song or Ride at Eurovision. I don't think those songs are horrible.

Better being bad than having a horribly generic song, completely agree!
Love a good read for the basic, Luxembourg came in rich and wrong this year 👋🙂↕️✨
Can u react to Polish NF songs?
Non qualifiers for sureeeee. EDIT: well actually Laura’s is not bad 😅
I've been listening to Laura's song on repeat, but yeah the overall selection is so weak, and even la poupée monte le son is really good but not really outstanding in any particular way

I have no favourites. This whole selection is baaaad 😰
as a french laura thorn lyrics are also horrible
I was too hyped from UMK and everyone calling it the best national selection and. Well. Y'all are not kidding. They aren't even trying.
get ralph siegal back to write your song Luxembourg

When are you gonna listen to the polish selection songs queen
yeah… english lyrics really aren’t our strong suit 😂 i don’t think it’s ai, it’s just bad english
girl i voted no when you asked us to pick for you lmao! truly a bland selection. i wish i could’ve saved valuable minutes of my life by waiting until the winner was announced and just listening to that. my winner is no thank you but i also love laura thorn’s song!
How bad did Krick’s song have to be for them to choose all these songs over her…

@@sergiomontessuarezLaura’s is a bit cleverer tho…
You listened to the best one at the beginning...that's why the rest were disappointing
LOVE FROM PORTUGAL:

To be fair I'm so srry for voting yes, I only listened to the snippets, I didn't know it was this bad
ok Luxembourg, you will struggle to qualify this year
how all the songs is so AI? nothing impactful, nothing special
by the way, the song The Ride, sounds like The Nights by Avicii
