Last
year we started the Eurovision Fan Reviews, where you the readers
review the songs taking part in the Eurovision Song Contest. And today
we bring you the 11th Eurovision Fan Review for the 2015 contest!
The person who we will be reviewing the next song in the 2015 fan reviews is Justina from Lithuania. She will be reviewing the Lithuania Eurovision entry "This Time" by Vaidas Baumila & Monika Linkytė.
You can check out what she has to say about the entry below.
1. Hello Justina, thank you so much for agreeing to this, how long have you been A Eurovision fan for?
Justina: Hi, no, thank you for letting me to do this. I fell in love with this show right after the first show I saw. It was in 2004, when Ruslana won the competition. The show was something incredible for me.
2. This year Lithuania selected their entry through the selection Eurovizijos. Did you watch the selection? If so what were some of your favorite moments?
Justina: I watched almost all the shows of selection. I think the favorite moment for me was the first show when the artists started to present all the songs that were written for Eurovision 2015. There were so many good songs. I just can’t choose my favorite. Also Lithuanian preselection is a little bit different from other countries. First people are voting for the song and after that you can vote for the artist. It makes the selection more interesting to watch.
3. It was decided that both Vaidas Baumila & Monika Linkytė will be representing Lithuania this year with the song "This Time". What is your opinion of the song?
Justina: I fell in love with this song right after I heard Vaidas version. Officially, this song was written only for Vaidas, but judges decided to make a duet, because they just wanted to know how this song would sound in a duet. And I was pretty impressed when I heard it . The both of them sound really good in this song and it has really memorable things like beat or lyrics. This song was something new to Lithuania, and if I’m right we don’t have anything similar to that song in our Eurovision history. Also it would be the first time that Lithuania decides to make a video clip. Maybe this song has something special…
4. How would you compare "This Time" to recent Eurovision entries from Lithuania?
Justina: This song is so different from recent entries… “This Time” is different but in a good way, it’s so sweet and warm, and the beat is making us to dance and sing along. You can’t compare it with last year performance. “Attention”, honestly, I didn’t like that song at all. Almost all Lithuanian entries was either soloists or groups. You can’t compare duet to any of them it just different thing.
5. Lithuania will be performing 1st in the second semi-final of Eurovision 2015. Do you think this is a good place for them to perform?
Justina: Well, some people thinks that is not so good to perform in the very beginning because other people can’t see the first performances due to broadcast problems and etc. But I think if you are fan of Eurovision, you will do everything that you won’t miss anything. I think that first place is good because people often remember only first and last performances, and there is a big chance that they will vote the most for the first and the last artists.
6. Where do you think Lithuania will place overall in this years contest?
Justina: As fan of Eurovision I like to read comments section under the video clip or just performance. Not only from my country but also from the others. There are so many good comments about Lithuania, I would be really happy if a miracle would happen and Lithuania will win the Eurovision for the first time. But I would like to be a realist, I hope that “this time” this duet will be in a top 10.
7. Finally, what are you mot looking forward to about this years contest?
Justina: I can’t wait to see Australia’s performance. Also like every year, the stage is a really big mystery. There would be so much good performances this year including Baltic all countries. I just can’t wait to see them all.
