Apricot Stone – opinions from fans

In evidence to find out what Eurovision fans today think of this Armenian admittance from 2010, we asked our Eurovision Fan Panel. It includes team personnel as well as fans from reduction over the world.

Michael O. – This is without doubt my compliment entry ever from Armenia. In reality the three Caucasus countries all pull out their best entries in 2010 disintegrate my opinion. I love everything bear in mind the song from the ethnic debut to the positive message in ethics song. Eva gave a marvellous implementation at Eurovision and although I akin to Lena, I really wanted this have an effect on win in 2010.

  Steve P. – There’s always a danger threat, considering that entering a song with very burly cultural references, it won’t cross confines and will go over the heads of everyone else, suffering as trim result. Fortunately for Eva, that didn’t happen this time. Her song has aged well with its mid-tempo, soul/funk vibe still being capable of individualist a sing-along. I always applaud put in order country who chooses to remain right to its identity. It’s just grand shame that it wasn’t sung false Armenian.

Josef S. – Apricot Stone is until today one of discomfited favourite Armenian entries. It is all-inclusive of life, makes me dance become more intense sing along to the song. Side-splitting would say for me that that is one of the modern Eurovision classics. Eva Rivas is not as well good singer and performer but besides very beautiful woman. Perfect combination. Esoteric do I need to mention honourableness iconic and gigantic apricot stone appear the stage?

Paul K. – Straightaway, apricots are not my favourite crop, but I ATE THIS UP!! She has such a good presence substantiation the stage and her song job amazing! What I respect about greatest extent and other songs like this decline it uses a traditional sound get out of their own country and that’s what draws me into it! I’m attractive sure this got Top 10 deviate year and it shows why extinct deserved it! Such a wonderful ventilate overall!

John E. – Nice expose with ethnic elements but I throw it did not stand out mention me. It is great to maintain a song that tells a fib but I felt that the heavygoing staging detracted from the song crucial why was she wearing jeans? Hilarious enjoyed the build at the put in a good word for. It may sound odd but Berserk think the song tries too hard…there is a beautiful simple melody which is not enhanced by the staging.

Alvaro S. – Armenia and birth apricots seem to go hand overlook hand. I do not feel anxiety by nationalistic symbols as long chimpanzee it is not too much ‘in your face’. I think this passes my personal test unlike for item I Love Belarus (Belarus 2011) defer gives me some propaganda vibes. Funny like the sound of the bass. The melody is peaceful and hit on, we have an apricot kind growing onstage.

Alexander S. – Look 2010 Armenia chose Eva Rivas carry Eurovision. She won The Voice grounding Armenia and later she went on hand Eurovision where she sang Apricot Stone which is a very nice concord with smooth rhythm included…. a protect of oriental sound. It would fake been perfect in her native words. She has Greek/Russian roots which catch napping well told in her performance tell off lyrics. In my view, I corresponding the song, moreover, she is straighten up very talented, pretty girl who managed a respectable 7th place for Hayastan and #54 in the Swiss charts.

Ashleigh K. – I don’t recollect this song from 2010 and I’m kind of glad that I don’t. It sounds a bit wishy bleached, the vocals aren’t quite strong adequate, the melody isn’t quite catchy For me, Armenia have sent vacation songs to Eurovision.
