Re: The 2013 'Expert' Panel - SWITZERLAND

After Switzerland (accounting for the points mistake from last round)

1. Britni Spirsovic - 40
2. Eau d'yre/Lizzy - 39
2. King Valentino XVII - 39
2. Petronella Poetry - 39
5. Morenik - 37
5. Barb E. Dahl - 37
7. Grandpa Waterman - 35
8. Robert - 34
9. Alex Chandhok - 33
10. Scotty Too Hotty - 32
11. Emma Magnuson - 31
12. Glittery S. Bob - 30
13. Dark Master - 18

So we have a new leader in Britni! The middle of the board is still very tight, and at the bottom...well, I think Dark Master has just about given up on this year's contest.

This is a very pleasant melody and a happy song. Nothing very special, so I give 3 points.

Dont like christian rock type songs generally cos they seem to be creepy. Looks like its heading for 3rd on the poll. I give it 3pts.

SWITZERLAND

Oh dear. It looks like the annual big band has arrived. Almost every year we have such a band at Eurovision. Last year we had for example Izabo and Mandinga and in 2011 we had Sjonni and his friends. They look like they're singing on the street or in a small theatre, for charity. I always feel the urge to donate a few pennies to them. I was born to be generous. It's in my nature, I can't help it.

Oh yes, I mean the song does sound like a big-band song. It's a bunch of happy people playing uplifting chords. They've made it slightly anthemic through the Aaaaah-ah-aaah and the Hey-Hey sounds and they've added some rock elements. It's quite catchy. Cleverly made.

But I do wonder: would I like to hear it over and over again? I'm afraid not, not really. It's simply not fascinating enough. There's absolutely no musical nut to crack here.

Although it's a nice song it has that typical Eurovison melody to it. It's nice enough to fill 3 minutes on a Eurovision night. Some viewers will be pleased enough and eagerly hand them their votes.

O, I just call it what it is: it's borderline camp. It's as nice and colourful as a fruit basket. And we all now that fruit alone, even if quite delicious, is not nutritious enough. We rate this a 3.

Contagious tune... 4 points. Draw has been "kind" to it, so this will surely qualify!

Re: The 2013 'Expert' Panel - SWITZERLAND

This song is so annoying. It's the song with the most unoriginal melody this year (along with Russia and Georgia). Even a chicken could "compose" this melody...

And it's catchy in a very annoying way. This Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah part breaks my nerves! :?

Re: The 2013 'Expert' Panel - SWITZERLAND

Can't believe Sweden didn't do that well....Grandpa Waterman is a bit of a bore. What's with all the one liners? Effort much? Switzerland is around a 3 pointer although it's a grower!
