Welcome to Chanson Pour L'Instant!!!
So, after the excitement of a qualifying streak died down, us Frenchmen and women have realized that we are getting excited over a 20th place finish? Seriously? We're actually okay with 19 other countries finishing ahead of us? That is not okay!!
This edition the number of entries skyrocketed to 76. We believe the upcoming elections may have contributed to an increase in national pride. TF1 would btw like to take this time to say that our stance is neutral for the presidential election
Song #01 - Damien Lauretta - "Dreamin"
25 year old French actor Damien Lauretta is best known for starring beside NNMC #11 participant TINI in the third season of Violetta. Can he beat his co-star's result and qualify to the final? Time will tell...
Song #02 - - "Chante"
With enough diversity to make Marine Le Pen shit her pants, Kids United enter CPL for the fourth time, finally making the final after being disqualified in #02, eliminated in the semis of #05 and eliminated in the prelims in #06. The song is a cover, but it is eligible to compete since their song entered the French charts.
Song #03 - Luna feat. Iyaz - "Run This Town"
It was admitted difficult to find info on Luna, what with there being singers of the same name in and , but we eventually identified her as Luna Ginestet, a contestant from season 5 of The Voice France who got eliminated in The Ultimate Challenge (the final 36). In this selection she makes the final 5. Can she make it all the way?
Song #04 - Imany - "Lately"
International star Imany contributes an unusual ballad this time. The producers have admitted that it was difficult to the find the right spot for this song in the recap, but they thought the same about 'IDIDUDID' and that ended up winning CPL and qualifying to the final, so who knows how well this will do?
Song #05 - Hoshi - "Comment je vais faire"
Much like Luna, there are many singers with the same name, but Hoshi happened to have a facebook page in the description of her YT video, so we could confirm her French nationality swiftly. A debuting artist, her song has already gained almost 100k views after just two weeks. She would have eligible for without our permission, but thank goodness we found her first.
Polls close midnight April 30th CET. In the event of a tie there will be a day's extension.
With that,
