Re: Switzerland

Oops, entry in Italian language...
We had one in Bulgaria also, a strong one, but shortheaded on the final...

This song should take some of the votes, maybe 10pts from Italia, but can't see it making the top 15.

Re: Switzerland

Well the word is this is a big fakey copy of a Swedish girl's song, and it certainly sounds like it.

That's got this one a lot of bad press already. If he can sing this one just might work as its ggot the 'big' potential - but only so far as it might just scrape into the final. The dancy bit that kicks in looks fairly out of place, leaves it in limbo between a dance song and a ballad, and doesnt really work in the end.

Re: Switzerland

No luck in finding a live performance of this so far for all the good it will do.

No surprise to see it shorten up a little in the betting - its the type of song that can sound like a contender to a Western European punter, but you can just about guarantee it will pick up bugger all support in anywhere west of Europe, and a punt to fail to qualify from the semi might be in order.

Re: Switzerland

1980's romantic/comedy theme. Yay. The fact that this is one of the least shit I've heard so far says plenty about the awful bollocksness of the other entries. This and Turkey for me are just about tolerable. They aint making me want to bomb the countries involved at least.

Why are all these performers so very, fucking punchable? Sleazy, revolting, smug, grinning bastarding fuck fucks. I hate Eurovision. Still have about 20 songs to get through. Double yay.

Re: Switzerland

50/1 best price s short as 25/1 in places. doesnt sound as bed as it does. Its got quite nice vocal melody. It even picks up a bit better than i thought it did. aye this is growing on me a bit.

Re: Switzerland

This one has grown on me alot. Dont think the placing of 7th in the running order will do it any favours though.



Thats the song that its being compared to. Obv different words, but the tune is identical.

Re: Switzerland

I have no memory of commenting on this. Even for me that was quite harsh. "Sleazy, revolting, smug, grinning bastarding fuck fucks" Right. Let me listen again. Oh dear. He reminds me of John Leslie.

Listening without looking at him.... it's just your standard kind of mid-table entry. They're trying to make it upbeat (about 50 squillion bpm) and powerful but.... I think it's one of those that falls into the 'close but no cigar' bracket. Trying too hard even. It just doesn't have that wee extra for me. It'll suit the zombie, Jeremy Kyle watching, voters. But not me.

I agree with myself about the 80's romantic comedy theme though.

Re: Switzerland

He's not a very good singer live, its not the type of song that tends to do well at Eurovision(the Eastern Euros won't like it), Switzerland dont have many mates, and its got a stinking semi final draw.

Not a sniff IMO.(I can do more reasons if needed ).
