Festivali I Kënges 49 - Semifinal 1

Today was the 1st Semifinal of the FIK, 19 songs competed and 9 songs get into the final.

Unfortunately there wasnt a webcast for the semifinal and the esc addicts didnt watched the show live but thanks to ESCDaily for the fantastic live report and Festrtsh and ArkivaShqip on youtube, i watched some of the performances and listened the studio version of the song.

They are the favorites and all the rumors said that they are the winners. They look very cute, but im not sure about the song, i know albania makes miracles with the esc versions but right now its a bit boring. I dont hate it but i dont love it right now. Studio version

Dorina Garuci – Mirmbrëma engjëlli im

She was the one i liked the most even if i really cant see her in Eurovision with this song, but i really like the song and she did a great performance, the video of the performance was deleted but i watched like 15 times.

Maria Prifti – Pasuri e pasurive

This song is very powerful, i like it but the performance was just ok, i prefer the studio version.
