The staging of the
song is full of movement. Robin performs most of his song to camera even when
moving around. He keeps moving around the stage and walks a lot as well as
using his arms to point and reach out to the audience. Robin is joined on stage
with 3 female and 2 male dancers clothed in cream colours. Robin does not
interact much with them much does walk between them at times. The stage is
quite dimly lit apart from the chorus when bright lights flash. During the
final part of the song there is a waterfall pyrotechnic display behind him.
"You" is
a multi paced song with quiet and powerful parts. There are lots of hooks to
the song as there is a lot of repetition. The song really shows of Robin's
power and range of his voice. However like many songs this year, it can feel
like one long chorus. It also doesn't help when the main hook of your chorus is
one word yodelled many times. The ending
of the very song is very memorable and Robin belts out a very difficult note,
which I have to say he has held every time I've seen him perform. The ending is a little weak but could be inproved by mirroring the change in tempo with the lighting display.
I think the song is
a very strong and is a memorable one. As I have just said it has lots of hooks
and will be memorable. It is a song that would not go amiss on the radio, in
particular Radio 2 as it would appeal you a wide range of people. I also think
people will like Robin, girls and boys alike! As reigning champions they
qualify straight for the final and I think this could do very, very well. I
personally would not be disappointed if we were in Sweden again next year - although
SVT might not share my enthusiasm...
