For the third consecutive year, San Marino will have Valentina Monetta (pictured) represent the tiny Mediterranean country in Copenhagen with the song "Maybe (Forse)."
"Maybe (Forse)" is a very soft ballad, very atmospheric which suits her vocals a lot better than "Crisalide (Vola)" last year. She will perform in the first semifinal one week from Tuesday. In a very stacked, competitive first semifinal, I think it will be very tough to get into the final in two weeks. Therefore, she might not qualify, but who knows! Everyone in the first semifinal (even Portugal for the chavs and scum who talk shit about it) has a chance. I said it, and if you hate it, then you're not a real Eurofan. Plain and simple.
San Marino made their ESC debut in 2008. Monetta has represented the tiny country since Baku 2012. That year, "Facebook" failed to qualify for the first semifinal. The following year, "Crisalide" followed suit, except it was better than "Facebook" (I called it as it was originally was before the mandatory ESC/EBU change for copyright infringement, of course). Hopefully, she'll give the San Marinnese a chance to finally give them a break in the ESC scene. Besides this and "Crisalide," I have never really enjoyed anything ESC-wise from this country.
Up next: Tinkara Kovac "Spet."
