    Dami's vocal was absolutely FLAWLESS at the semi.

    Yesssss!!! Go Dami!!! If there's any justice in the world, she will win this competition. Beautiful song and the absolute most talented singer there.

    I know I'm two years too late, but we've only been sending former talent show contestants/winners so far.
    Guy Sebastian WON Australian Idol Season 1 in 2003, Dami Im (well, you mentioned it), Isaiah won the 8th season of The X Factor Australia in 2016, and Jessica Mauboy competed in the fourth season of Australian Idol in 2006 (I believe she came 2nd).

    2016 was the first time in years i watched a grand final in years and the only part of this years eurovision i watched. I went into like, "why's australia even here?" but after Dami im had been on stage, all the doubts i had were gone.
    being from Denmark tho, i wasn't really impressed with this year's competitor from my country :3.

      Eurovision has been broadcast on Australian TV and built a huge local following for the past 30 years.

      that being said, i dont want it to become "the more the better" i mean i love that australia's here but wouldn't want something like the US to come into it .c.

    I can't hear Simon & Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence" without thinking of the Not Literally's parody "Walk of Shame" th-cam.com/video/8z1sDPOkHNk/w-d-xo.html

    There S&G song is not Sound of Silence. It's Sounds of Silence.

    • @overthinkingit
      @overthinkingit  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +George Ludwig I was about to write you a note about how you're wrong, but it's more complicated than that. The title was actually CHANGED:
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sound_of_Silence
      So while "The Sound of Silence" is accurate today, it was originally called "Sounds of Silence." Weird, man.

    • @geoffin99
      @geoffin99 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Overthinking It That is interesting, I guess that shows my age since I always thought it was sounds. I also need to learn how to use their instead of there before I make comments!

    A great message wrapped in an annoyingly repetitive chorus... :P I'd rather have no chorus at all, so back to Simon & Garfunkel I go... ^^

      @overthinkingit  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +rageguy311 We specialized this year. Belinkie did most of the writing and video editing, and Wrather did all of the recording. Mark wrote a couple, and Stokes and Sheely got involved too (there are credits after most of the videos in case you're curious). It's been a great team effort and we're really proud of the stuff we've been putting up!

    Boring repetitive song, more screaming then signing. Pity she did not get any better song to work with

      @annak3592 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Dexter Paglinawan no, I am from Australia . Nothing against Dami, when I first watched I liked it, then after listening a few more times the truth was revealed, it is just a pop song, the whole package with the handsome dancer and an elegant outfit looked ok, then Hollywood outfit with just a pop song, full screaming, self pity and where is a connection with an audience? Superficial.. Simon and garfunkel are still being played on various radio stations, I doubt it will happen with Dami song. People vote for glitter, Cinderella outfit and Australia is still very exotic in many countries. I like dami as a human being and wish her well, but her sound is cheap and repetitive. There were at least 10 songs better then hers. I am sorry. That's just my opinion.

      +Dexter Paglinawan Sri Lankean or Ozzie Indians don't . But sophisticated Aussies do.. my favorite Indian movie is Rang de Basantii. Spelling may be different. I watched it with my son a few days ago,there in a nice weather in port Phillip bay. A bit cloudy.. The amaranth color horizon is beautiful today. The latest news , Aussie reader dies in a sidecar race crush, michael Klim , goes public with his new girlfriend, Australian federal election 2016: day 28. Two more suspected Aussie cases of Zika virus found..wild weathered in Tasmania, ok in Victoria ( I am here). New superannuation strategy allows Aussie to save big on insurance. . Have a good evening( if you are in Australia's)
