Lithuania was one of the first national selection performances to “WOW” me. The staging was straight from the MTV VMAs. Watching the performance I had no “notes,” it was virtual perfection. As rehearsals continue, you might wonder why there isn’t much “hype,” around Silvester Belt’s “Luktelk”. It’s simple— it’s a case of “national selection blinders”. It is a phenomenon that happens every year, where Eurovision “die-hard” fans turn their sights on the songs we’ve never seen performed live, ignoring those we’ve seen…
It’s okay. It is only a Eurovision bubble occurrence and casual Eurovision Song Contest voters are never impacted.
National selection blinders aside. This entry looks just as polished on the Malmö Arena stage as it did during Lithuania’s national selection.
