Eurovision 2014: Moldova

Moldova is the country that Zdob şi Zdub (twice) and Epic Sax Guy. More recently Moldova has decided to start taking Eurovision seriously. This year they are so serious they are sending what could almost be a James Bond theme.

Artist: Cristina Scarlat
Song: Wild Soul

I was reading the info on the song from Eurovision.tv thinking 'surely someone edits this crap before it is posted and removes the engrish'. Apparently not because "Cristina gained a great experience by competing and winning prises in a wide range of festivals" and as for the composer "Ivan started to write music already as a teenager"

This is not a good song to start that adventure of the 2014 song contest with. it is not a particularly good song at all. I don't know if that is the fault of the lyricist (who incidentally is the singers niece) or the engrish or that I really hate that lofty bit at the end of the chorus. I feared that section would be the greatest flaw on the night, but a live version shows she cant do the low bits. maybe Mercy is what she is hoping for in May.

So I googled the lyrics and not I understand them and wow, this song is a pile of wank. The vocals show that this song could be a complete train wreck. this could be the wankiest train wreck in Eurovision history. I love Schadenfreude so I am looking forward to this song on the night.

If you want to do a crap James bond theme, You need to look at Belarus from 2007
