France 2018 • Madame Monsieur - "Mercy"

Haha

I know a bigger fan of theirs than I am one

I want to give this a , because it's really close to Mall to me, but I can't be certain to give both or but idk I'll decide a real rating later
But on to the point, the song is really good. A calm radiofriendly electropop song wasn't exactly what I saw from France, but still a fantastic choice.
I love the meaning and inspiration behind the song, and I also love the wordplay with Mercy and Merci in the last chorus. Despite the repetitive chorus, it surprisingly works, and I am always that person that dislikes when songs become lazy and has either the same lyrics over and over again, or random noices as filler.

Good on ya, France

I really like the song and the message and even though my French is terrible I could actually understand some things they said, which was nice too. I like that France is taking Eurovision more serious again and I think this fits in perfectly with the last two entries. It is a well made pop song and with the electro-pop vibes it has something that makes it outstanding. I might have to listen to it more to give it more points, but for now it is a solid entry.

ESC-wise this song REALLY depends on all the other songs that will be in the final. If this ends up as one of the best pop songs in the final I can see it getting a Top 10 placing easily, but if this will not be the case this song will probably go down the same as Say Yay! while being a very good pop song and having something that makes it outstanding it will probably fade in the background and will end up somewhere of the right side of the scoreboard

for now.
