i def appreciate your honesty and you not trying to be a basic reactor (like others) but... are you deaf? haha. she sang on pitch 97% of the time. Yes, some vocals are shaky bc she was sitting or moving too much. There was an overall sound problem during the whole show, it was big news all over the internet and the news, and the national TV got big backlash from the fans bc the sound was terrible. Even if she moved the mic too much, with a good sound would've been great. All the performers suffered from this sound problem and in fact, she was the best vocally speaking in terms of pitch and hitting the notes. You can watch videos from fans on the show and you'll see the sound in the arena was ok. The TV said it was a broadcasting issue that caused the sound from the arena to not be the same quality as what we saw on TV. Regardless, the theatrical staging is because she's also an actress here in Spain and she wanted to combine her 2 worlds. The song talks about overcoming fears, depression and anxiety, embracing them and just keep fighting and moving forward and getting stronger. I think a very classic rock staging like Maneskin's would've destroyed the whole meaning of the song. I know the song it's rockier but that type of staging would've not worked at all or bring anything special. I think she told the message pretty well (if you pay attention) visually speaking even if you don't understand spanish. I will say her vocals could've been better tho since she's a great vocalist working on theatre musicals too. But i appreciate you being honest. Seriously, the reaction community is filled with people just trying to not upset their faves, so i appreciate it. I just wanted to point out those things lol.
Hey! Appreciate your comment as it's very complex. My reaction is morelikely to add some professional look on it. At as so - it is very cruel / honest but if I am not able to name even microproblems, then I cannot do my work properly. Of course, it is hard to take everything from just one take and concetrate on so many. But I am extremely sensitive of vocals and even she did well, as you say - she was moving from and there - that also did not help it. Sometimes to reduce is the way. Either way - she nailed the performance and vocals can be just the only thing, I can tell - I hear - they are not 100%. Which is a pitty thing. The whole thing impressed me and as you saw, also visually there are ways how to improve. Then it will be perfect. Btw I dont much care of how it sounded in arena, always you have a different feeling in arena surrounded by people, dancing and enjoying, then concetrating at home or dedicated place. I saw many mobile videos, which mostly proves the opposite but I kinda believe that is easier not to want to hear it. As it was not crazy bad. On the other hand, it is important to improve instead of just saying any problem dont exist. Especially this one. Many thanks for sharing and caring, it is important to talk :) Best Jan
I think she has enough abilty for the good performance and staging but she looks unready for the stage. I caught her many times searching for the camera and position to stand nervously and she held the mic too far while dancing couple of times then we lost her voice. I hope she'll be relaxed in the final and has opportunity to fix these to show her full capacity.
I think they can also mask it a little bit by adding more light effects but imagine how many things she needs to do on stage. From this presence position she nailed it imo
The sound engineering was really bad. In fact, most of the critics of this year were based on the fact that the voice of the singers in all the performance were way too low.
The mixing for sure. The vocal quality is a different thing, actually they did not do them a favor as any vocal drop, mistake or however you call it, was heard.
