The presentation
was a very simple affair with Hannah alone on stage with only flashing lights
as a back up. I think the song would benefit from much more movement on the
stage in terms of dancers as it would also help with the power of the song. Hannah
is wearing a very short sparkly dress with strangely large shoulder bits. I
think she could do with something a little more flattering for Malmo
The song starts
with a frankly pointless breakdown section which sets a bit of a false setup to
the rest of the song. The song itself is well structured with quite a predictable
sequence which is always a good thing for Eurovision ears. The chorus is very
repetitive in terms of words and tune and within a listen or two you have the
chorus in your head.
The song is very easy on the ears (apart from the breakdown parts) and is very much a decent song. It has a modern feel and Hannah is a good singer and performer and hopefully this will come across onto the Eurovision stage. This would easily find its way onto radio playlists and clubs all the way across
To be honest, I was
not expecting much of this and it has surprised me at how good it is. Right
now, I do not see this as a winner but from the Slovenian point of view they
are probably more interested in getting into the final and I hope this has a
very good chance of doing that. The other worry is that Hannah was miming
during this presentation - can she produce this kind of
vocal live and under pressure?
