esctoday.com national final awards 2010

The 2010 esctoday.com National Final Awards will be held between April and May, which means between the national final season and the Eurovision Song Contest. We will repeat the same format with two rounds for nominations which was used this year - you can read how it works here. However, this time the individual polls for each country will always be held right after the national final, when the entries are still fresh. You can vote for your favourite performance not to qualify in the Lithuanian national final here and for your favourite song not to qualify here.   


In 2009, Lithuania was represented by Sasha Son, who finished ninth in the second semi final and 23rd in the final with his song Love. In 2010, Lithuania will compete in the second semi final of the Eurovision Song Contest on 27th May.

The Lyrics Are Not Political it's Historical If The Rules Says Something About History Only Then It Should.

I said this last year with Georgia, the rule about politics is stupid, because this song is incredibly political. However, as it fails to be 'against' someone or something it probably won't be disqualified. I would guess in the strictest sense it does breech the rather vague rules.

iev iev, aš nesu tiek kvaila, kad Inculto kritikuočiau anglų kalba :) O teigiamo apie juos, apie juos išrinkusią komisiją nieko negaliu pasakyti.

Say that I am stupid, but isn't this song political? In the lyrics you can see words that are politically not good: "We survived the reds and 2 world wars". The 'reds', I think, are russians. So why this song isn't disqualified yet? Georgia was disqualified because of word combination but this is clearly political expression. Maybe just I think so... But well we've chosen Inculto, good luck.

To enzas:
Enzas, don't you remember your comments about Inculto??? When I said:
I want InCulto to qualify to the final. These guys are hilarious! Look, what they are doing in the mall: http://www.youtube.c(...)/watch?v=v7ipZ4SG9sE

You just replied:
huh... Inculto just copied LT UNITED! performance sucks,make something new.


I bet you are old enough to have your personal opinion... So don't play like you are the biggest fan of Inculto! Of course it's good to support Lithuania!!! But you should do it from the beginning, not then when your favorite singer loses and you change your mind.

Get up and dance, Europe. And be loyal to your opinion! :)

Egle, jeigu ka tai cia yra ne lietuviskas tinklalapis ir turime rasyti angliskai. Yra pilna kitu lietuvisku tinklalapiu susijusiu su eurovizija kur gali reiksti savo keista nuomone lietuviskai :) visiskai taves nesuprantu, prie ko cia blogu zodziu? Jie nera mano dievinami Inculto, niekada nebuvo. Tiesiog tai buvo geriausia ka Lietuva galejo isrinkti siais metais ir as dziaugiuosi tuo. O jei tu nesugebi palaikyti savo salies, tai buk gera, pasilaikyk savo nuomone sau ir leisk geriau pasisakyti tiems kurie supranta kaip reikia sirgti uz savo sali;]

Omg, stop criticizing... Are you jealous or what? these guys are awsome, charismatic and so energetic.. They deserve to take a good place in eurovision! Because in my opinion It's much more easier to sing bored typical eurovision balads than to show such energy and make all audience dance like they did... not everyone could do this, really not :) And please, be just more tollerant and stop defame.. if you want to say something, wish good luck or smth, but not any bad words, It's enough.. Because the guys put so much work in this performance and don't deserve to be called clowns or losers. I really hope you'll change your mind :) good luck!

Ak, sugadinote jūs viską vineriai, balsuodami už žemo lygio dainušką. Neleidžiate tinkamiems dalyvauti: vietoj Amberlife išrenka pasčiausius -Liną su Simona, 2009 metais Sašoko fanai nustumia Donatą Montvydą, kuris buvo puikiai pasirengęs Eurovizijai, 2008 metais išrenkama labai nuobodi daina, kurią galėjo pakeisti, uždegti tik aukšto lygio profesionalas, bet ne medinis ar metalinis Milius, o juk 2008 metais Pilvelytė turėjo gerą eurovizinę dainą.
