Eurovision Review: Slovenia
Apr. 26th, 2011 05:33 pmSlovenia have never even threated to win the Eurovision crown and they have tried to win with everything from popera and faux classical (or opop - like popera but the other way around) to folk rock to eurodancepop, they have even tried to add some bondage to their acts... At least their eclectic collection of songs makes their entries interesting, still not good, just interesting.
This year Slovenia is sending in a singer who can apparently do everything, and she seems to try that in this song. They are a country that seems to seriously want a win and will send anything in to try it, but just send the wrong stuff in for the year.
I actually prefer this clip of her singing it in slovene. ok there is a foul note before the first chorus, but i think she performs this more. The angry part sounds better. however the wind machine operator is a perv and the dancers... want what they're on, i is obviously the good shit.
This song Will get to the final, which will be only the second time since the introduction of the semi that Slovenia has achieved that, however this is a strong year. if this song was in last year, it might have been up there, but this year, this wont get top ten. Most of Semi Final 2's qualifiers will just be there to make the numbers anyway and I fear that that is the fate of this song.
All things considered though, this song isn't terrible, there have been worse Slovenes in Eurovision, like Pepel In Kri (or Ashes and Blood at Eurovision). seeing it was the 1970's though... can we forgive them... maybe not.
