Bulgaria starts off the race to Turin with a new delegation at the helm. They present the Intelligent Music Project with the rock song “Intention.”

This is an incredibly low effort from a nation that previously was incredibly focused on PR and marketing strategies. It is not difficult to tell there is an entirely new team in charge this year. BNT seems to have lost interest in Eurovision and we could even say this is an “intentional” step towards non-qualification to justify a withdrawal in 2023. Allegations of corruption have also rocked the whole selection process this year.

The song itself lacks any hook and with more rock entries expected it will have no USP. Not even some of Sacha Jean Baptise’s best staging work would save this entry. As William Lee Adams said, “this is my bottom 1 not my top 1.”

Rating: 0.5 out of 5.

Prediction: Non Qualification
