I will never regret

Last note about ESC

Yeah, I have to admit that I was really angry and disappointed on Saturday after the ESC contest because I always have the pink idea in my head that Europe can appreciate the QUALITY music (sorry but for me the grannies from Russia are really cute, but don’t fit for this category) and doesn’t vote about who is who’s friend…
I think Compact Disco made a great LIVE band performance, and for me THIS IS THE REAL MUSIC, not a bubblegum pop song, and in my opinion this 19 points didn’t address to the song, more to the country. But they are not lost at all, because thanks to the Eurovision Song Contest they made 16 record contract with different countries and Europe got to know them!

By the way, I have to admit that there are good benefits of Eurovision: You have the possibility to get to know SUPER artists from other countries and without ESC maybe, you never meet them. I have the luck to find two new favourites whom I mentioned in my previous post. There is one common thing Compact Disco, Sinplus & Max Jason Mai: They did something total different at the ESC! They went to the stage with LIVE band, and did total different than the other artists!

First one is Sinplus from Switzerland, who were Compact Disco’s one of the biggest competitor in the 1st semi-final. Experts said, Compact Disco or them will be in the grand-final and this theory was total true because they were 11th, my country was the 10th on the list and Compact Disco went to the final.
I watched some interview with Gabriel and Ivan, and they are so nice and talented (okay they are handsome, too but in music for me it’s not a point, but I have confess Gabriel has one of the cutest laugh I have ever heard ;))!



I listened their new album “Disinformation” and it’s a so cool and fresh music, the only problem is that, it’s too short. My favouites Unbreakable, Turn On the Lights, Get Off & Roll the Dice. I think they should deserve the final, but I wish them so much luck, and I hope they will come to Hungary!

The other one is Max Jason Mai from Slovakia! My heart bled for him because he didn’t get enough vote for the final (moreover he was the last on the list:() He got a lot of critics about he has a false voice, and just screamed etc.



First of all, if somebody sing in live, you always will hear false notes, and in rock and metal style, it’s not about perfect singing, more than the feeling and to rock the stage! He and his band did a great atmosphere and I had the feeling that I am on a concert. He is really talented, just check this video in which he sang 5 ESC songs:



And he made a great friendship with Compact Disco and I am really appreciate in him that after he spilt from the 2nd semi-final he supported on Twitter & Facebook Compact Disco and inspired the Slovakia to vote for Hungary. Compact Disco said that they will do a collaboration in the future, so hardly waiting for it! So I would like to wish Miro good luck and do your music!!
Btw, watch this interview with him, because it’s so funny. He interviewed the Hungarian interviewer :D

Cirque du Soleil - Alegría

On Friday (18th May) I saw Alegria from Cirque du Soleil in Budapest. We got tickets from my godfather who works there as a light technican. I was really excited because I saw Varekai 2 years ago and it was magnificant, so I waited Alegria so much!



And I don’t disappointed. My biggest problem was why I have to blink because I feared that I lost a moment from the magic. Honestly, I can’t choose a favourite part because every artist’s and clown were fantastic. But I have to tell a specific moment: In one of the clown part, two of them argue with each other  and then the taller with the purple coat said to the little one with the red hair (btw he was my favourite! he was so cute :)that “Szeretlek” which means “I love you” in English, and the whole arena rocked from this little word. And my godfather told me after the show that, they do this little thing in every country, but in other cities there is no current reaction for this gesture, and the clown and the staff was totally surprised when they experienced this reaction here.

After the show we looked the  backstage and I saw that after a more than 2 hour long show the artists still rehearsed and trained!!! I call this high profession!! After that we saw the masks and the show clothes so it was amazing!!

It was one of the best night of my life and I advice you, if you have the possibility go and check one of the Cirque du Soleil show because they are so fantastic!!!
