I know he is not playing in this semi-final, but I had to tell that Michal Szpak is definitely my favorite this year !
Never has a singer touched me so deeply through this competition ! I am so happy to have known him through Eurovision, a contest I have been following for 32 years now.
I didn’t know him before he took part in the Polish final, and he is truly a musical revelation to me. I have watched many live videos of him, and he is so talented. His voice conveys so much emotion and depth, together with moving orchestral music. He is not just a usual nowadays mainstream pop singer, as far as I have listened to his songs.
My second favorite is Zoe, with her French song representing… Austria ! English would have been such an easy choice with so many English sung songs in their final, but they haven’t chosen the easy way by choosing a song sung in a language that has been losing much international (and even national, by judging from the French national charts ….) audience through years. Good luck Zoe, you will need some !
I wish Mishal and Zoe lots of 12 points in May !
I think they will both do very well at the contest Franck
