Alive

tells the story of becoming alive through liberation from one's own ego. Listeners are drawn to action as they experience the change of the song, both in terms of content and music, until in the end where only one statement remains: "Alive again".

Vincent on developing his participating song: “The song itself has undergone massive evolution and got a good push in the final sprint. I worked with very young producers and composers (David, Davey 'Yang, Felix van Göns, Artur Aigner), who will definitely be involved in the Austrian music scene in the future. While the song was being created, everyone on the team was able to experience how much the song was evolving, especially when everyone freed themselves from their own egos and opened up to each other.”

The Eurovision Song Contest 2020 will be broadcast live on ORF1. Channel Manager Lisa Totzauer said: "In 2020, music will be a central focal point in the program of ORF 1. In addition to 50 years of Austropop and 20 years of Amadeus, the world's largest music event is always a fixed point in ORF 1. Music connects and creates identity - that's why I am pleased that we can give the Austrian musician and our candidate Vincent Bueno an even bigger stage through our broadcast."

That was retrofunk? I've forgotten sbt the song. Well, it was first time aus participated that year. Makes sense, ebu was very.... Adjective towards debuting country Australia that year. And every other year, but that year especially. His song was one listening only for me.

One of the Austrian headlines says: "This year with a chorus". Apparently a swipe on Pænda.

Vincent sings "Behind a wall of ego, there is hidden hero in us". Most of the retrofunk song consists of chorus, "you make me feel like I'm alive again," the singer repeats. "I'm like a little matchbox. All I need is a little spark"

R'n'B elements enforce the song, it reminds on Bruno Mars or even the early Frank Ocean. Towards the end, a striking bass line emphasis the catchy melody.

So its retrofunk, wannabe Bruno Mars, repetitive song with super cheasy text im a little matchbox? Austria what have you done to yourself and your reputation in esc. Sounds like a first toilet break for 2020.

 

[Leydan]

Retrofunk. Jesus christ. That alone terrifies me. My expectations are really kinda low, but that is a sure way to go lower still.

 

[Realest]

2020 could be a very strong Year for german speaking Countries.

Lets just wait for the song. We also had many speculations in every direction in 2018 concerning Cesar Sampsons song.
