it would, because the system has changed

Thats what we tought about Croatia this years Eurovision 2021

[@ilovemcharts9992]

if there were two semis that year, its chances of qualifying would go up (juries would probably eat this up and help give it a top 5, which it deserves)

[@XandWacky]

It probably would. The one SF system back then definitely screwed over plenty of songs.

That's not a key change though 😅

@@hep8008 Nope, the key remains the same. Just because that part of the song is attention-grabbing, that doesn't mean it modulates to another key.

[@hep8008]

@@afelix nah as a music student, there's a key change . Its very subtle but it's there . Where she says je t'adore and then repeats that when the camera malfunction happens there's a key change . Literally you can hear it because it's the same lyrics just the key changes lol . Thanks for your input though 🙃

This version is so much better that the one in the official video. Good job of Kate and the background singers - for me a timeless classic, even though it did not qualify for the final.

[@srdjangavrilovic3232]

@@itzlisam Ok so I dont know if you already found out but in that era 10 best placed countries from previous year plus big 4 since Italy wasnt participating were directly placed to the gf of the next year no matter the quality of the entry and all the rest were fighting for 10 spots in one semi final. In 2007 42 countries participated and 28 countries were fighting for only 10 places and thats why in 2008 2 semi final system was introduced with two years later 2010 juries having equal say in who is gonna win together with the televote. In the era of 2004 until 2007 only televote decided on who is gonna qualify and win and in 2008 and 2009 juries were introduced but not in a way they are present today
