ESC 2016 MOLDOVA: THE SECOND REHEARSAL

Some changes in Moldova; the backdrop is darker, the cosmonaut Uirii Ribac dances away till the end of the song in his metallic outfit.  Lidia has a new dress that is supposed to be the one, she has added some French to the song when the cosmonaut arrives and this blogger wonders if it allowed at this point? Anyways, apparently all is improved in the Moldovan act except Lidia's vocals but we can't help that, can we? She sings in front of a wind machine the last part getting her hair blown. Otherwise she's pretty static on stage and one would expect her to dance a bit more as her cosmonaut is all over the place..... A borderline qualifier. Maybe. Or then not, the astronaut didn't help the first time he appeared on Eurovision stage, not sure if the weide audiences find it any proper this time. In press conference Lidia promised further changes to the staging and said the French lines are now taken to the consideration of EBU and if they agree will be used in semifinal...

ESC 2016 MOLDOVA: THE FIRST REHEARSAL

Next on stage was Moldova: And yes! The video's cosmonaut is there, dancing it away most the song. Lidia's dress for today was rather horrible, luckily that's not the one for the night!  The backdrop is various shades of blue, maybe to represent the sky the stars are falling? She's got backing singers hidden away to save the day as Lidia alone.... oh well, never mind.  In the Meet & Greet she reminds her song is written partly by the team who wrote last year's runner up A million voices . Like that would help.... and then we are told a story about her French teacher who wanted her to sing Edith Piaf songs. Hmm, I wonder what cosmos she was from? Maybe the same as Juri, the cosmonaut. Truth to be said, it wasn't that bad. It only proves her entry is wrong for her.
