France: Alma - "Requiem"

[Marco Antonio [QUITE INACTIVE]]

RADIO VERSION

[George]

Finally France decided to continue sending amazing songs.

Um I doubt if this could score as high as Amir though a place near the top 10 is possible.

I was expecting a more promising refrain but anyway.The music and her voice are very good and I could imagine a very awesome performance at the moment.

Typical french sound wich I like but it does not sound dated at all

[Aleks Džehverović]

amazing Great song for france once again

[Niklas]

um i listen to this since three weeks or so why is this suddenly an esc song I literally can't deal with it kbi

[✨💃]

for now, most probably it will grow to 12 soon

Thought about giving it a , but after listening to it for a while, I've decided to give it a for now.
This really came from nowhere, and I am still surprised over this.
But over to the song, after a first listen, I was happy to see France go with something that sounds modern, yet different at the same time (and once again in French, yas).

Like other said, a small Stromae ft. Indila mix.
One thing I have as a problem with this song is the chorus. I like it, but I feel like there's too much happening in there.
But eurovision.tv said that the final version of the song would arrive in the following weeks, so I am excited to see if there will be any huge changes.
A lot of people speculate that France is back to the bottom 5 thanks to a live video they saw of Alma performing it live.
Then again, same speculations happened with Amir, and what did he get in the end? 6th. So I'll not judge her until May.

This is currently my 2nd, but so far, you've not disappointed me, France

No ballad for France

The song is amazing, captivating 'typical' sounds of French chansons along with Modern pop sound. This is really a fantastic entry
