The third heat of the Bulgarian selection for the Eurovision Song Contest is about to take place. You can watch the webcast by following the link below.
This article will be constantly updated.
The show has started moments ago. As always, there will be some dance performances and some talking before the contestants present their entries.
1. Stoyan Chingov – Zvezden mig
The song is a rather unspectacular ballad and the vocals are far from being flawless. The singer – who is wearing a grea jacket of the wrong size – does not know how to move and seems very nervous.
2. Dennis Mahmud – Confession
The second performance is much more prefessional than the first one (and so is the outfit) – there is a dance routine featuring some background dancers. The up-tempo song is rather catchy even if (or because?) the lyrics mostly consist of nonsense phrases.
3. Tihomir Nikolov – Byagam
Another up-tempo song is presented by the third male soloist of the evenig. There is a choreography featuring two female backgorund dancers and since sex is supposed to sell, they wear mini skirts and boots. Overall a strong impression and of about equal "quality" as the second entry.
4. Ivan and Stani – You are magic
A half-harted performance by the duo (dressed all in white – how classy!). They seem a bit bored themselves and the reaction of the audience is anything but enthusiastic.
5. Begacha – Ne vyarvay
The fith song (is it really a song?) is a rap and pretty tuneless and the singer seems not to hold a single note. It seems to be a joke entry and the audience seems very happy. When he starts dancing, the audience is going bananas.Verka 2008?
6. Dobromir Peev – Libe
Another casually dressed singer who is off-key. The song is quite tuneless even if there is a hook which is repated probably too often. Surprisingly good reaction by the audience.
For unknown reasons, Plamen Penev will not present his song.
Next week, the qualifiers of the first three heats will be chosen.
