Eurovision Song Contest 2015


I think last year I made a list of many, many songs that I liked during Eurovision Song Contest 2014. I didn't have a clear favourite, but this time I liked very few songs.

BELGIUM: Loïc Nottet: Rhythm Inside
ESTONIA: Elina Born & Stig Rästa: Goodbye to Yesterday
GEORGIA: Nina Sublatti: Warrior
NORWAY:  Mørland & Debrah Scarlett: A Monster Like Me

And did I have a favourite? Yes, Loïc Nottet's song was catching and fun, and the performance was simple yet so elegant. Also, Nottet is one attractive young man. Usually during ESC I look at the women, but this time Nottet was one of the most attractive people there. He kinda reminded me of Iwan Rheon, though he had similar voice to someone like Amy Winehouse. It was really great. I recommend anyone to go listen to Rhythm Inside right now, it's a great song.

But mostly the songs were the same, I mean similar to the songs we hear every year. Actually the only thing that kind of didn't sound like Eurovision Song was the winner, Måns Zelmerlöw from Sweden, with his song Heroes. Like usually the songs here are... well, you can almost hear the eurovision from there. But Heroes sounds like something you could hear from the radio, it was almost weird. I didn't exactly like the winning song, though. As a Finn I feel obligated to be kind of pissed about the winner. (We gave them 12 points! Why do we do that, they never give us points!)
