Show me what you got
On the counter
From the ground up now
Here we come and we all know
Mama said not to show what you are
Step it up now
Get it done now

I hate what you got
Shoot it to the stars
To the top now
Across the moon and down
We are here 'til we blow up
Tryin' hard will not get you really far
Mix it up now
It's alright, pal (Circus Mircus)

Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, takе me to dance club
Take mе to the space craft, take me to dance club
Now, right now, right now, right now

Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club
Now, right now, right now, right now

Take me to the space craft, take me to dance club

Lock me up, lock me down
Lock me in, lock me out
Lock me sideways
Lock me up, lock me down
Lock me in, lock me out
Lock me sideways
(Circus Mircus)

Make it 'til they break it, never could take it
Make it 'til they break it, never could take it
Make it 'til they break it, never could take it
Make it 'til they break it, never could take it
Now, right now, right now, right now
Make it 'til they break it, never could take it

Lock me up, lock me down
Lock me in, lock me out

Maybe they had scenes in the video that would remind people of war or other atrocities? That was the only explanation I came up with.
you mean atrocious scenes would fit in with that happy sound?

You are right ... my post wasn't tought out, I guess. Since they were former artists and sound "weird", my imagination was that they combined happy/funny moments with tragic pictures.
Just read on eurovision.de:
"Die Gruppe verzichtete darauf, ihr bereits gedrehtes, sehr buntes und fröhliches Musikvideo zu veröffentlichen." So my thought was wrong. :LOL:

How is not having a video helping the ukrainian people?

I think it’s rather their video design that is supposed to help Ukrainian people.
It‘s all black and very vocal, straight to the point, what they think about the war. It’s also a way to spread the info there is a war ongoing while the internet in Russia is blocked and false propaganda spread.
People will look twice after they read the "video unavailable" , they will also read the little description below it, it‘s very clever to get people‘s attention.

Not so sure if that really works… My first reaction to a „video not available“ would not be to read all the details on the black screen.

The official video of Lock me in :


Disappointing, it's just a visualizer.

And that’s what they couldn‘t show because of the war in Ukraine??? Seriously, it rather seems that „solidarity“ was some marketing gag….

Another abomination from Georgia.
Seriously that country should withdraw they only send bad songs their music is also awful so they have nothing good to offer. Such a useless country.

Georgia should be responsible for the entire Eurovision line up.

:12: points in the poll xcheer

This is very Brit Pop-esque, what's not to like? Their first entry since '16 (which was also in similar vain) that you wouldn't have to pay me to listen to it. :10:

Based on this and previous Georgian entries, I would be quite intrigued to visit Georgia, and go to a music festival while being there 😃 Their flag and alphabet look cool too.

As others have said the beginning of the song is great, however the rest of it is a bit annoyingly repetitive. Score :10: from me. It's super catchy!

My review:

Euro Neuro meets the Intelligent Music Project? I am not sure, this doesn't do it for me, it's not the right quirkyness and I feel like Georgia is just trolling us again.

This is amazing and has HUGE potential to be either absolutely awful or absolutely brilliant on the night. I'm shocked. It's great. I'm predicting this now as a dark horse.
This is one of my favourites, I have played a clip for friends who also really enjoyed it. I'm unsure how its going to fare live though, like you said it will probably be either amazing or chronic! :unsure:
