REACTING TO AUSTRIA'S ENTRY

Paenda was the artist chosen by Austria to represent the nation in Tel Aviv for Eurovision 2019. This was another country that decided to chose its entry via internal selection. She will be performing "Limits" and we are reviewing it!
Hope you enjoy it!

Probably the least memorable entry of the year. Although it doesn't have anything wrong about it, it also doesn't have any good things about it either. It just looks flat and dull, with no major changes to it for 3 minutes. After Cesar Sampson last year, I think Austria took a major stepback and I can't see them qualifying in no way, especially when they have so many good entries in their semi-final this year. I can obviously change my mind after seeing it live of course, but as it is, it's just a boring song and I'm giving it a 4 out of 10.

SCORE: 4/10

The song sounds like something modern but the "you"s on the chorus are way too repetitive. The instrumental takes us to another dimension, there are no limits. However, I was hoping for some rythmic changes that never came, so it makes it really forgettable for me. I don't know how this will go, but I think it's doomed to stay in the semi. At least I hope the performance is somewhat incredible and futuristic. I'm giving it a 7 out of 10.

SCORE: 7/10

I didn’t know very well what should I expect when I started to listen this song. From the first verses, I immediately noticed the softness of her voice, but I confess I was hoping there was going to be a more explosive moment. Because of that, this is a different song in that aspect, but it’s also true that it’s a very calm and relaxing song in a good way, since her voice is enjoyable to listen to. In general terms, I think that this Austria will have to struggle if they want to qualify; but on the other hand, there is a possibility that this song can be a dark horse and consequently the biggest surprising qualifier. I’ll give it a 5,5 out of 10.

SCORE: 5,5/10
