Russia: "Shine" revealed!

The long-awaited Russian entry is here! I guess the Tolmachevy Twins have been busy in the studio these past few days so that's why the songs release date was slightly postponed.. and it was even reported that we wouldn't get to hear their entry until the end of the month. But thankfully that's not true as "Shine" was revealed this afternoon. Listen here. I really like the song itself but I think Russia could have difficulties qualifying this year... A video-clip will be released in April.

Due to the current problems with Russia and Ukraine, this entry has caused more interest than any other song this year. The lyrics are rather interesting, too - especially this section:
Living on the edge closer to the crime cross the line a step at a time 
Now maybe there's a place maybe there's a time maybe there's a day you'll be mine 
Naturally, this has sparked a lot of interest regarding because the lyrics could be considered as a political message. Due to the current situation with Crimea. "Maybe there's a day you'll be mine" is especially interesting. I'm not saying that these lyrics are political, personally I don't think they are, although you can defiantly see why some people would think this.

ALL 37 SONGS FOR EUROVISION 2014 ARE NOW KNOWN! STAY TUNED FOR AN SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY SERIES... :-)
