Today is the first heat of the National Eurovision Selection. I - Vaidotas - was invited to be a member of the jury. At first I thought there was no need to go there, I just needed to stay a neutral observer. But I really care! Me, Mantas, and Robertas really care about who will represent Lithuania and how. So I decided to take part in the show. At the same time, I want to share some insights from THE ROOP. I believe they can help participants this year:
-Be brave! This is one of the most important things! Believe not only in what you sing. Be courageous to show your strengths, strangeness, sensitivity, undress not necessarily externally but internally.
-This song contest is not just a "song contest". The whole package is important - song, image, story, message and charisma. Fulfill each of these areas.
-Being different is ok! Don't look for standards.
-Not only perform the song, but also enjoy being on stage. Surely no one could force you, you wanted it by yourself, so it's time to feel happiness here!
-Do not read anonymous comments below your videos or articles. Even a single negative comment can confuse your thoughts. Focus on yourself and what you want to do next.
-Be grateful to your friends and loved ones who support you. This is the first and most important team of your success.
THE ROOP wishes you good luck!
