So it has begun.... well technically it began last Saturday, but since I didn't have time to watch it then it was recorded and was gonna watch it before todays show. Sadly.... or rather lucky for me, the recording was corrupted and 15 minutes in the screen turns black. Saved 2 hours of my life. So it was waiting for the second show and it began. First act is a copy cat of last years winner and I then remember that the same singer copied himself and Erik Saade back in 2011 or 2012. Then we have some cheerleading song or rather that was what I remembered, the cheerleaders being the dancers behind the male singer. Followed by two songs written by the same composers with two dark haired women in white dresses. Then a finish-swedish girl in a red dress and second to last song with three older men and really, they could sing. Probably the best act of them all, although the lyrics was worthless but the sound, music and voices fantastic. And of course it finish last. Gee, what a surprise. The last song is a damn country song and completely worthless, but what it did have was the best stage show of the whole show. She had some specialised body suit where they projected light and images and it looked fantastic... but it was to a damn country song. It should obviously have been an electronica/synth song. It went to the finals so one would suspect that the ADHD-generation of children voting in the Eurovision song contest probably choose that over a better song.
Also one of the white dressed ladies had a song called "I will wait" and instantly I thought on Van Halens "I Wait" or GTR's "Here I wait". Both recommended as better songs. But the stage show for the country girl was fantastic. Edited: I know tomorrow is Valentines day, but seriously, does every damn song have to be a love song? Show some diversity please!
