Contests 2018 Serbia’s superfluous striding

Serbia’s superfluous striding

Nova Deca
A traditional instrument - doubtless fashioned from a bulls' foreskin, or something

It’s all coming thick and fast today. Many delegations are only doing two tries, so bink and you’ll miss it. Serbia has had their first go and I barely saw it. The women are wearing a new black cape-y thing over the white dresses, but it’s not hiding the fact there’s some superfluous striding in this that’s not really quite gelling. The blend of several genres and tempos isn’t really making this a coherent package ether. Mladen’s beard, however, remains magnificent. The rest’s a bit of a dog’s dinner.
