    Such a great song. Made me feel like this was a viking anthem. In my top 5 along with Finland, Australia, Germany and Austria.

    Love her! Live in Madrid she didn't do all the high notes, but she didn't need to. The crowd sang the whole song for her - they loved it. She just looked like she was having so much fun and taking the p*** (in a good way) out of the song, playing around. Although, after Madrid she dropped from my number 1 to my number 2 song this year, and my number 1 is probably not going to be yours because I love it for the performance art and stage presence - Serbia, Luke Black. Austria currently 3 for me with Sweden 4.

      Ohhhh! That’s so cool. I’m still not sure about what my favourite is, but as you know I’m not doing every song on the channel. I am doing more than last year Luckily I’ve got Serbia, Austria, and Sweden lined up.
      I was actually blown away by Serbia’s - watch this space! And Austria’s is soo fun

      @@TheMuserResolute Wohoo! Can't wait - fully subscribed now :) In Madrid Serbia did a colab with Konstrakta from last year - both showed up in each others' performances. I'll link a crowd video from Madrid below on last year's artist from last Saturday (not to spoil Luke's song), because the Madrid streaming was absolutely Gawd awful and the sound is much better from the crowd than the official streams. NL e.g. sounded fine from the crowd but awful on the stream. DK was just bad...in both. Anyway, here's Konstrakta from Saturday night - th-cam.com/video/esXS-XBwy00/w-d-xo.html

      I think she could have taken it a bit more seriously, people were actually paying to see her... And she sounded quite bad. I would have been very dissapointed if my favorite would performed like that and I have come to see her.

    Did you identify the note just from listening to it? Is that what perfect pitch is?

    • @TheMuserResolute
      @TheMuserResolute  ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Heya! I did, kind of, but I don’t have perfect pitch. Perfect pitch is where you can instantly identify a pitch or simultaneous pitches. I don’t have that exact ability.
      I played a couple of notes until I identified the starting note of the chorus, and from there, because I could identify the scale, I could play the rest.
      This is a case of strong relative pitch which everyone is capable of through greater exposure to music and learning music theory 😊
      I’d love to say I have perfect pitch, but I don’t.

    Ma qualcuno se n'è accorto che i due ritornelli principali derivano dalla canzone dello spazzacamino di Walt Disney accelerata e a quella di Gabry Ponte x LUM!X x Prezioso - Thunder???
