Eurovision Review: Israel

[passionpop]

A coupe weeks ago I was thinking what country to do next. I asked my housemate and he said "do israel, everyone else has"... I am thinking it was a different israel though. so now I will do an actual review on Shiri Maimon, "Hasheket Shenish'ar"

(unrelated song of the day) Israel - The Bee Gees
Where there's sand
Where there's beautiful sand yeah
You know you got a kind of feeling
That's just grand
Take me into your arms
Let me be with you
Israel Israel Israel

I always thought all the Bee gees songs were crap, this goes to show they are... anyway back to Eurovision. I can see why she won the Israeli National final. she is a cute blonde chick wearing a low cut dress to show off aot of her cleavage.

She might have the assets to win Eurovision but  don't think she has the song... this is anoth Disney/Idol sounding song. but I will give her points for trying, really hard to squeeze into that dress...  Shiri Maimon, "Hasheket Shenish'ar"

"HASHEKET SHENISHAR" – (transliteration)

“THE SILENCE THAT REMAINS”

Lyrics: Pini Aaronbayev, Eyal Shachar
Music: Pini Aaronbayev
Publisher: Helicon Songs Ltd

I was like a blind woman at daybreak
So much reasoning, there was no room left for feelings
I’m next to you, shivering, and this drug has not subsided yet
Inhaling you, and the taste is already bitter

You look at me differently, you’re cold
You shy away from me, I can’t take it
It is not the same anymore, and the cold returns
Another day goes by and I cannot breathe

Night falls slowly, time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with you

You are the silence that remains

Evening time, again, running in shadows
The dusk is surrounding me, but I try to think about you again /
(through the mist I am trying to see your image clearly)
A long minute – that seems like eternity – goes by
It feels empty without you.

You look at me differently, you’re cold
Another day goes by and I cannot breathe

Night falls slowly, time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with you
Time stands still
And you are the silence that remains
One second - at the end of the game – …and I am spiraling down with you
