Eurovision 2016: Review: Moldova: Lidia Isac: Falling Stars

Will Lidia Isac's star fall in the semi-final?

At the end of February, Moldova was among five nations to pick its entry on a Super Saturday of national finals across Europe with Falling Stars by Lidia Isac becoming the choice of Moldovan televoters, but not their expert jury.

It's not surprising that there was a lack of unanimity over Falling Stars as it's a tediously generic dance tune with a total absence of originality. Add to that Lidia Isac's less-than-perfect vocals and stagecraft - unless you like wooden singers with nasal overtones - and Moldova is looking at missing out on the Final for a third successive year.

On the plus side, Lidia is rather easy on the eye, but that alone hasn't helped many prospective finalists in the past.

Clearly, between now and Lidia's appearance in the first half of the first semi-final urgent tweaks need to be made to the overall package. But it's unlikely that any changes to this forgettable piece of Euro pulp will be enough to secure a place in the running order of the big Saturday showdown.

What do you think?
