Shortly after the 22nd edition of ESCT, Georgia internally chose Nina Sublatti as its representant for the 23rd edition. Five of her songs were chose to race for the chance to go in the official contest.
There will be 10 jurors who will decide the 2 songs that will reach the final. All participants in ESCT 23 are invited to vote, the first 10 that will do it will count. After 10 votes, I will close the vote. Please mail me your votes and don't post them here. The voting system will look like that: 1st place chosen will get 12 points, 2nd place will gain 8 points, 3rd place-6 points, 4th place-4 points and the last place will get 0 points. The 2 songs with the biggest amount of points will qualifiy for the final. In the final, the winner will be chosen by a poll. In case of a tie between 2nd and 3rd place in the semi-final, or a tie in the final, a 'guest' juror will decide the winning song. That juror will be the head of the Georgia's delegation (me). May the best song win.
Taking into account that there is just 1 day left for the country to choose its entry, even if the vote didn't reach 10 jurors, the votes were closed before this margin. There were 7 jurors that voted in the Nina's Song semi-final (wich I'd like to thank again) and the results are the following:
In the 5th place, with 22 points................................................................................
'Down'
In the 4th place, with 28 points...........................................................................
'I've Got An Idea'
The first finalist (in a random order) is .................................................................
'Easy'
And the second finalist (in a random order) is.........................................................
'To The Empires'
Which puts in the 3rd place, with 36 points: 'You Call Me Devil'
Thanks a lot to Hungary, Slovakia, Morocco, Norway, Germany, UK and Cyprus for their votes. The detailed results will be made public after the results of the final.
The poll results for the Nina's Song Final are as follows:
'Easy' - 50%
'To The Empires' - 50%
So it is a tie. In the case of a tie, the head delegation of the country has the right to choose which song will partcipate in the ESCT 23 for Georgia. The head delegation of Georgia chose the song by the higher number of points in the semi-final. So, the winner of Nina's Song, for ESCT 23 is:
