Malena Ernman - La voix (Eurovision Sweden 2009)

FissurePrice asked if what happens at around 2:12 is called "glissando".

Yes it is, i.e. the part where she "slides" up the notes without distinct bars. That is followed by a piece of "coloratura", which is when the voice jumps like a png-pong ball between bars, without the slightest trace of glissando.

The sound technicians failed in Moscow, in my opinion. I listened to another recording of the same song.

Should it have been presented like that, I think she would have moved up the list.

Big performance, not easy for an opera singer . Congratulation from Italy. Another pearl sent from Sweden to ESC .
........But ....Who is the wonderfull man-dancer between 1:10 - 1: 13 ??? Adorabile e sexy !!

Is this the same Malena Ermann who has an opera career???

Yes it is!

aahj85, you are too funny!
Liking or disliking is a matter of taste, but not whether or not somebody sings out of tune. Saying so about Emma tells a lot about yourself, because it is simply flat out wrong!

Maybe she and her song did not fit into this environment.

The other songs and artists may be funny and even good, but nobody else on that festival came even close to her class and style!

And that is a fact, not an opinion.

I've heard Marlena perform before, and this song was NOT good! I know what she's capable of, still this song did'nt measure up by far.. I'm a trained singer myself and know what I'm talking about. What qualifications do you have? Seems to me you're just a fan insulted by criticism towards your idol..

Heat skulle ha vunnit ffs

Dumfan.
