passionpopAustria have returned to Eurovision after a 3 years away. Traditionally not a threat in the contest, this year they sit at 50-1 with the bookmakers, so it looks like nothing much will change.
Poor Austria have only had one Eurovision win, and they have had as many last places as Ireland have had firsts. This year wont be a last place for them atleast
Nadine Beiler is a strong singer with an excellent voice. She spends too much time around the high notes for my ears. she is very much in the Mariah/Whitney mold and this song and her outfit look like they could almost be in "The Bodyguard', which isnt a bad thing and this song should qualify for the final.
I cant watch the clip. It is her hair that annoys me more than anything. If you are going to get a severe bob, you have to ensure that it is even. I hope she didn't pay for that haircut. If she did pay for it, I hop she went back the next day and got them to fix it. Seriously...
The following song is from 1961, and I chose it partly because it is easy to find an actual clip of a song that finished last than a song that finished somewhere in the middle, and partly because it finished last.
