The representative of Montenegro, Vladana Vucinic, revealed the live on-tape appearance of “Breathe” , the song that represented the country at Eurovision 2023.

The show was recorded at RTS studios in Belgrade. Vladana failed to qualify for the grand final, but her participation marks Montenegro’s return to the contest.

Montenegro: Vladana speaks openly about the problems of this year’s contest!

Montenegro’s representative expressed her dissatisfaction about this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Vladana, competeing with the Balkan country with the song “Breathe”, gave an interview in a Spanish website and talked about the many problems she had to face during the rehearsals.

At first, she said that she didn’t want the EBU to select that exact part of her rehearsal to give out for the second rehersal clip. She wanted to keep the structure on her dress a secret until the night of the semi-final. She calls it a “Halo” that reacts to sound either from her voice or music, offering us a magnificentresult.

You can watch the exclusive rehearsal clip of Montenegro that EBU released below:

In the same interview she gave out some more information about the sun-shaped structure in the center of the stage. That structure was supposed to change depending on the needs of each participant. Of course this was impossible to happen as… the sun is really heavy. Thus it was decided that it will stay still. As Vladana said, no country was informed about this decision in time, it was something they learned a few days before arriving in Turin.

I have to be honest, I am very disappointed with some things about Eurovision this year. Everyone had told me that Eurovision was perfection in production but… it’s not like that. I don’t know if it is because it is Italy and Italians are very improvisers, leaving everything to the last minute… And look what has happened! Two days before we arrived in Turin we received an email that the Sun was no longer working.

The Montenegrin representative went on to reveal that only about 5% of what the public broadcaster asked were fullfilled from the Italian organizers, as for the graphics, the shots and the lighting, a last minute solution had to be found.

The many problems of this year’s contest seem to have no end as the begining of the contest is only some days apart. Montenegro will compete in the second semi-final on May 12.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Next up is Montenegro with Vladana and her song ‘Breathe’. Vladana didn’t convince at the pre-parties being very weak vocally. in her first rehearsal, Vladana wears a blue dress with a particularly bright circular disc on the back. The lighting that has been chosen is really impressive, highlighting the overall appearance, while Vladana nails the song. She will try to convince with her second rehearsal that she owns a spot in the grand final.

The Second Rehearsal

Vladana’s second rehearsal starts with a rotating shot from above. She wears a blue dress and with a connected ‘satellite plate’ behind her. This plate, along with the upper part of her dress, starts to shine with lights from the second verse and on. Vladana is weak vocally, but better than the pre-parties. During the bridge, there are two silver figures in the backround. She sings the last pre chorus in Italian.

After the first run-through she complains that at some points her sound was off.

In the second run-through, the circular prop in her back and the upper part of her dress don’t turn on.

In the third run-through, the ‘satellite plate’ along with her dress turn on from the beginning of the performance.
