2016:
Hovi Star – Made of Stars.
This song has something really familiar about the start of the chorus as well as other portions of the song but then you don’t expect much originality from an Idol winner. It is one of those songs that the more you listen to it the less impressive it is, and it wasn’t hugely striking to start with. This star does not burn bright.
After watching this clip I wondered… when did fingerless gloves come back into fashion? I must have missed the memo about the current 80’s trend that has inexplicably returned. I do try my best to keep up to date with the 80’s and it appears so does Hovi.
I have read fans talking this song up, but the bookmakers don’t rate is highly. I have to agree with the bookies. Maybe it is a generational thing. It might be what the kids are in to these days but it is not something that grabs a person, or at least this person.
In keeping up with the 80’s, say Hi to 1983
