passionpopFinland took forever to work out how to win a Eurovision and finally work it out, they just needed a little Hard Rock Hallelujah. This year instead of hard rock they are sending softcockrock.
Artist: Softengine
Song: Something Better
This song was a last minute entry to Eurovision, which shows, but it also took ten days to write and record. Some bands could knock out a whole album in that time. It wouldn't be a great album, it would be rather formulaic, but then this song is pretty much that too.
The song isn't bad, I mean as a song writer you would have to be pissed if you spent 10 days working on a song and it turned out to be a steaming pile of shit. It is just something that any US softcockrock band could have done a decade ago. It is nothing special. It is not too good but not totally crap
I think with all rock music the proof is how it is performed live. The best thing about Eurovision is that for good or ill, every vocal is live. This should be too much of a car crash.
If you are going to do Softcockrock at Eurovision, at least give it a bit of ethno. Albania did Ethnosoftcockrock last year and it failed to qualify. No one likes a softcocks though
