Finland FINLAND 2021 - Blind Channel - Dark Side

[escYOUnited]

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me

Just another night in my pitch black paradise
Don't wanna cry, so I gotta get paralyzed
My body is my weapon, so I keep it loaded
'Til I'm all over the place like my head exploded
Don't waste your prayers, they can't save us
Lifestyles of the sick and dangerous

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Likе the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that lifе on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me

I'm in a cave of man-made misery
Digging a grave for myself and my enemies
Of all the dark things that keep me wasted
You're the sweetest I've ever tasted

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Like the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Just another night in my pitch black paradise
Don't wanna cry so I gotta get paralyzed
Don't waste your prayers, they can't save us
Lifestyles of the sick and dangerous

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Like the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me​

Blind Channel did about three and half years ago cover-version of Linkin Park's song "Numb" as tribute to Chester Bennington

 

[mauve]

They also covered Anastacia's "Left outside alone" and it sounds wonderful!

My top 5 of their songs:

1. Died Enough for You

2. Dark Side

3. Over My Dead Body

4. Timebomb

5. Cover version of Anastacia's Left Ouside Alone

 

[moop]

hey finland! linkin park called, wondering why you dident send this 15 years ago ?

They have many great songs, I also like these a lot:

 

[burrito]

They are legitimately the first artists from Eurovision I love that much. Even if at some point leading up to May Dark Side will fade on me, I will still support them like crazy and they still are getting my vote and 12 points because they are easily becoming one of my favorite bands, even if I weren't voting for the song, then I am definitely voting for the band themselves

All of these songs are brilliant, but I'm currently obsessed with this:

Love of Mine from Violent Pop is amazing, too. I mean, the whole album, Violent Pop, is just sooo good, the earlier ones are good as well but this one is really, really great.

That's what ESC is about: finding some musical pearls and looking for other songs of this artists. And that's what happened to me with BC!

Its a really good song. Its just so damn dated. Would work better as a wwe entrence song.

 

[burrito]

14th spot in semi 2, after and before .
what to think about it?

 

[Trece]

15 years ago everyone would say copy, 10-5 years ago - outdated, now - nostalgic and its good

Actually in my eyes it doesn't matter which place they have - they WILL qualify. Their song stands out from the rest and will light fires.

that's what i'm hoping for i was wondering about potentially outshining them for some reason but then... no. Not gonna happen.

No one is nostalgic about nu metal.

 

[heke1988]

Just bring us same pop song every year, Swede.

 

[HayashiM]

No one is nostalgic about nu metal.

Let's wait for Dark Side's televote result and see for ourselves, shall we?

well if you are even remotly correct, i guess we will have to send sabaton next year and show everyone how its really done.

"how it's really done" is very subjective. I don't know Sabaton (just had a quick listen), but BC and Sabaton are different Rock genres. You can't compare them. I doubt that Sweden would have send Sabaton anyway, unless of course, they changed to some generic band.

Please do, I'd be delighted! But I am afraid Aly Ryan wins Eurovision before sends Sabaton...

 

[moop]

Yeah

Yeah sabaton would never sink so low.

True that.
