Yes this is a POLL of the BIG HITTERS

Do you want Ulrikke's "you WILL vote for this!" enormoballad, Alessandra's ludicrous operatic Nordic stormer, or JONE's russebuss banger?





 
Personally think Norway's pretty blessed to have three VERY RELISTENABLE big challengers (assuming that utter whelk Atle isn't currently roaring up the Spotify charts in the TRONDHEIM SUBURBS), but I reckon Ekko would totally bring the house down in Liverpool.

(suspect Ulrikke's got it won though)
 
I really miss this Ulrikke though. Someone force her to wear thigh-highs again and stop crying!

 
I’ve fallen behind on national finals due to work so I only know of Honestly and Queen of Kings. Both would make incredible entries and would be by far the best out of what’s been selected so far. I LOVE Honestly though so it has to be Ulrikke. It’s much better than Attention ever was.
 
I love Queen of Kings but it could be an 11/10 performance in Liverpool if she was a better singer and retwigged the song slightly so she's not as breathless by the end. Ulrikke is fine but her scrunched up concentration face when she sings is off-putting and I don't like the ending. Jury is still out on JONE because I was today years old when I discovered it.

I really wish I knew how much heavy lifting the autotune is doing.

I guess most of them will be using it though Ulrikke has said she isn’t using it. Alessandra had some help but not as much as Skrellex who was NOTE PERFECT 🙄 Umami Tsunami and Jone sounded like they did too.
 
I think the amount of help Alessandra had is being understated across the board.

All of last night’s qualifiers sounded borderline robotic though.
 
I really hope Ulrikke ends her performance next week screaming "I DIDN'T USE THE AUTOTUNE" (and also mentions it at every opportunity during the intro VT), like Katie Price shouting "just vote for me!" in 2005

I disagree with Alessandra. She had a few dodgy notes towards the end, which I think AutoTune would have covered up. I’m sure she used it though but she also had a heavy backing track.

Anyway it probably doesn’t matter much. I don’t think the Norwegian public will give a stuff.

It’s probably only a matter of time until it’s introduced in Eurovision. Fans will moan loads and then forget about it the following year, like pretty much every other change that’s been brought in. Except Australia that lots of fans still have a bee in their bonnet about.

There are a good few moments during the Alessandra performance where she sounds dodgy but is suspiciously bang on the note so I’d just be interested to hear how she sounds without, that’s all.

When we watched it I kind of felt robbed of a car crash for the ages. :(

I know there’s a lot of talk about this being the thin end of the wedge and it eventually coming to Eurovision but I’m not sure I can see that in the near future. It’s different when it’s one broadcaster choosing its own entry, but when it gets competitive between broadcasters it’s the kind of thing that opens itself up to all sorts of foul play accusations.

Eurovision doesn’t need autotune because it has the winning formula already; find a good vocalist who’s not attractive enough to front the performance, then stick her in a darkened recess of the stage while a perky front woman mimes along and occasionally joins in on the verses.

It would be the end of a NOBLE, CAMP TRADITION the day this totally went (and it kind of already has a bit now they've allowed backing track vocals in the contest)
 
I am so happy for ELINE - easily my favourite of the whole thing and really hope she sends mouldy old Ulrikke packing x

THIS. Obviously OUR GRAND LADY DANA INTERNATIONAL is the absolute queen of it, but it's just so much FUN to spend hours trying to spot them! :disco:
