Eurovision Review: Hungary

[passionpop]

In the continuation of my Pre-tourture tourture (pre-Eurovision Eurovision reviews), I have reached the point where I get to Hear the full version of Hungarys entry. This is not the firt time I have heard this song (and unfortunately it wont be the last) because I did also review all the songs in the Hungarian National final Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál. back then this song was called Forogj világ now it is  Nox, "Spin, World"

(unrelated song of the day) Hungry like the wolf - Duran Duran
Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
I’m on the hunt I’m after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I’m hungry like the wolf

:) I know I am very naughty... anyway back to Nox, "Spin, World". since the Hungarian final I have actually found the lyrics in English and I kinda relate to them. it is unfortunate that they have apparently chosen to stick with singing it in Hungarian, if for no other reason it means one less drink in the Eurovivion Drinking game.

Dial-up has prevented me from getting a decent review on the Video on this occassion, but as for the song, initally I thought it was a bit "wild dancers" (Ruslana, 2004) I am now thinking it is a bit more Authentic... bordering on Ethnic. It is more like an Irish act from the Riverdance era... from the days when everyone loved all things Irish... until they sobered up the next day

I doubt Nox will Spin the World, but at least Hungary are in Eurovision this year... unlike last year... or the year before.... or the year before that....

"SPIN, WORLD!"

Spin, world!- sweep me into the light,
Or I shall not live tomorrow!
Your wild night kills me -, although it waits for me with a kiss...

Don’t hurt me, world!- don’t embrace, don’t feel-,
Your love hurts more!
Don’t play, world!- let me go, if a happy land calls!

HÁJNÁNE... 
I WANT TO BE SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR A LONG TIME!
HÁJNÁNE... 
I DON’T SEE ANY LIGHT, I WON’T WAIT FOR IT! 
HÁJNÁNE... 
I DISAPPEAR IN THE SKY OR ON THE GROUND, JUST ANYWHERE! 
HÁJNÁNE... 
THIS IS HOW ALL SORROW MAY TURN INTO A DREAM...

Spin, world!- I’m cold in the dark-,
You are at the end of all hope.
Crazy world: you flame up but turn into ice...

Don’t hurt me, world!- I’m not walking on your path -,
Don’t ask, don’t call, don’t see me!
Don’t regret it, world!- all other hearts are yours... 

HÁJNÁNE... 
I WANT TO BE SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR A LONG TIME!  
HÁJNÁNE... 
I DON’T SEE ANY LIGHT, I WON’T WAIT FOR IT! 
HÁJNÁNE... 
I DISAPPEAR IN THE SKY OR ON THE GROUND, JUST ANYWHERE! 
HÁJNÁNE... 
THIS IS HOW ALL SORROW MAY TURN INTO A DREAM...
