Songcheck (2) Ukraine "Tick-Tock"

This year Ukraine is represented by Maria Yaremchuk with the pop song "Tick-Tock". Its a very catchy song, you remember the refrain after listen to it. Its not a very different or special song, but it makes fun to listen this song. I think that she will get lots of televoting points in the semifinal. 

Now to my rating:

Voice: 3/5 

She has not a very different or special voice, but in the live version of Tick-Tock (old version) she sings not bad.

Song: 3,5/5

Its a very good song that you can remember till the voting starts, so you will maybe vote for her and I think lots of young people like that pop song, so they will vote for her.

Live performance: 4/5

She sings good enough and she sings very emotional, thats a important thing, that a good song needs to get televoting points. Furthermore she is a very pretty woman.

Total: 10,5/15

Qualification chance: She has a very good chance to qualify for the final, because the people at home will vote for her, but I dont know how the jurys will rate the song. So I give her a qualification chance of 80%.
           

Songcheck (1) San Marino "Maybe"

Valentina Monetta trys it again this year with her song "Maybe", written by Ralph Siegel, who also write her entry last year "Vola". Maybe is a ballad and in my opinion its very nice song, I like it, but are there people who vote for her? Last year with Vola, she has no luck because she placed 11th in the semifinal. But Maybe she can qualify this year ;-)

Now to my rating:

Voice: 4,5/5        She has an amazing voice, remember Crisalide last year, a                                                              very powerful voice and an emotional gig.

Song:  4/5           Its not a very different song, but Ralph Siegel made a good work and 

                             its a very harmonical song.

                            

Live performance: Theres no live version of Maybe, but when she sings as good as 2013, 

                                 it would be very nice, so 4,5 points.

            

           4,5/5

Total: 13/15 

Qualification chance: I think it would be not easy, because in her Semifinal there are lots of other slowly songs, for example: Belgium, Montenegro, Azerbaijan and Sweden. So I give San Marino a qualify chance of 50%, because the song is good and she has a great voice.
