Eurovision Review: Lithuania
May. 6th, 2005 06:44 pm13 days to go and 14 countries left to review. ON of the countries I am yet to do is Lithuania... there is generally nothing much to say about Lithuania so I listened instead to Laura & The Lovers - "Little by little"
(unrelated Lyrics of the day) Luthuania II by Dan Bern
And then one day I went back to Lithuania
One day I went back to Lithuania
Flew into the capital, found a modern city
Lincoln town cars, cash machines, art galleries, McDonald's
And a big clock counting the seconds down
One by one to the millennium
Seventeen million seven oh three
Seventeen million seven oh two
Seventeen million seven oh one
That is an old song... obviously... So I guess I will talk about a newer song, this years Eurovision Entry. it is another 80's is sounding song. I kinda like it in a trashy sence... which is why I like Eurovision anyway there is something a little Thompson twins about this song, there is a bit of A-Ha and Duran Duran too... there is something else too, but I can't put a finger on it... it is really 80's though.
This song could have the potential to cause an upset. It might just be trashy enough to win, but I doubt it... It might have just a little too much talent... but then listening to it again... maybe not. I guess my opinion could be changed "little by little"... *sigh* Laura & The Lovers... well if Katrina and the waves can win with a comback single anything is possible
Whoo hoo... 2/3 of the way through now...
“Little By Little”
Night shadows falling
I hear you calling
We're finally talking
Your words touch my soul
It's taken a long time
To get inside your mind
I know it's not easy
But babe we're two of a kind
Ooh little by little
I’m getting close to your heart
When we’re together
Looks like we’re making a start
Little by little
I see that look in your eyes
Each time you touch me
Yes I know that it's true
And I reach out to you
No more confusion
It ain’t no illusion
This is a fusion
Of body and mind
We're meant for each other
So baby come on hold me tight
We’ll make it together
As we fly into the night
