I have decided to take a look at each entry this year, in a lead-up to the contest! There are 39 countries participating this year, all aiming to win in Malmo (well, some don't wanna win!) Turkey, Portugal, Slovakia and Bosnia & Herzegovina decided to withdraw this year, which was a shame, so lets hope they'll decide to return for 2014! I have drawn all the countries randomly and today it's Austria's turn...Natália Kelly - Shine!
After the hideous Austrian entry last year, they are back with a fine pop track. Natalia Kelly won the Austrian ticket on 15th February. An awesome voice, maybe a bit shaky in the NF, but she was pitch perfect in Amsterdam last week. Natália is a wonderful vocalist for her tender age. She's 18. I did enjoy the Austrian selection, my favourite was Back To Fantasy, but it came last - and that sucked!
Austria will kick of this years Eurovision! She opens the first semi final, so there is a big chance it can qualify, and it will be followed by the sweet ballad from Estonia. Shine is a great opener - if I had one criticism it's that the chorus is a bit repetitive. I would love to see Austria back in the final. I wish her the best of luck! Read an interview with her here!
When hurt is all you’re feeling, your heart is slowly bleeding The only memories to hold on to When you almost stop believing, you’re cold, alone and freezing...Here's the official video...
National final performance...
Loved this!
And even this!
TONIGHT'S HINT - FORGET ABOUT PAYING!
