Austria AUSTRIA 2022 - LUM!X & Pia Maria - Halo

[escYOUnited]

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

We don't need a Hercules to bring a man down to his knees
No more apologies
Philosophers like Socrates define yourself, think on your feet
Go sharpen your teeth

We can be CEO
Yeah, you already know
Yeah, we can be the boss
Fly higher than the Gods
We're not under control
And no, no, not anymore
If you feel me, then put your hands up

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night

I think I had the right idea
Beautiful, something to feel
For a hundred years
We're gonna be written among the stars
Posing so we're hustling young queens

We can be CEO
Yeah, you already know
Yeah, we can be the boss
Fly higher than the Gods
We're not under control
And no, no, not anymore
If you feel me, then put your hands up

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night

La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
Don't need no
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night​

When I read the first part of the lyrics , it always reminds me of Margaret. "Let me be your tempo, tempo"

Kleine Zeitung:

Song Contest 2022: Mit der Ukraine steht der ESC-Sieger fast schon fest

Die Ukraine ist hoher Favorit in den Wettbüros: Mit „Stefania“, einer flotten, tanzbaren Verbeugung vor den starken und liebenden Müttern, könnte sie zum dritten Mal den ESC gewinnen. Am Freitag hat Österreichs Beitrag "Halo" seine Radio-Premiere.

not so sure about that. the road till may is long and it wlll very much depend on what will be the political situation.
Sadly with the conflict getting older people will get used to it and the level of compassion and solidarity will drop.

These words could be true unfortunately.

 

[RainyWoods]

Ok, I'LL TAKE IT! Finally we have some life. Shades of Kim Petras and other sparkly pop princesses. Just what we were in need of this dreary year of Eurovision. The song has great energy and never lets up. Infectious boppery.

points. Could go higher if I find myself having extra fun with the overall package once we get the music video.

 

[Looren]

This is catchy as hell

"Tempo" is a paper handkerchief in Austria.

 

[aef]

Is the full version available yet? I'm at work and I don't have time for the research hahah.

 

[Lindon]

Heard the full version ... usually not my kind of thing, but catchy as hell.

Same with me. Usually not my thing, but...

 

[njdevils94]

You chose this cheap repetitive mess over ANGER.

To say the least I'm quite disappointed.

Do you know the song by Anger?

The last Song in German (kind of German) was Woki mit deim Popo 10 years ago. ORF hasn't still recovered from that expierence.

I still love our song in French so much.

I... like Woki mit deim Popo. It isn't an absolute favourite but I find it fun and entertaining.

I know that not any country would send every year a song in their language but it makes me sad when it is almost never the case. Of course the language isn't link to the quality of the song but I would enjoy having songs in German from time to time (same with nordic countries).

 

[DirtyFalcon]

Very catchy and it's quite refreshing in this year with so much ballads, but maybe quite repetitive. I could easily see that qualify but i'm not sure it will do very well in the final. It will depend on the staging that will make or break this.

It especially depends on how she will deliver the live vocals. That could be a problem, but I hope not!

"The leak certainly didn't harm us - on the contrary" After our ESC hit Halo was briefly on the internet last week, the radio premiere for Lum!x and Pia Maria will be tomorrow: at 7.40 a.m. on Ö3, immediately afterwards on Radio Austria . "This song should give people hope again after a two-year Corona break - to celebrate, to warm up and for every party," explains Lum!X the dance floor hit in an Interview with the newspaper ÖSTERREICH. The Kunsthistorisches Museum was even rented for the elaborate video. "We felt like we were in a movie. A night at the museum. The video should show all facets of Austria: from rococo to current electronic music,” reveals Pia.

 

[Datura]

i think both Lumix and Pia Maria seemed very likeable, cool and confident at todays press conference, i have high hopes that this will translate to the stage. The Video is great aswell, and the song is fun (i was afraid that they ruined the structure a bit, judging from the demo i've heard and the leaked clip but it works well). I'm sure this will make a lot of eurofans happy

 

[Phoenix]

I though this was going to be a lame synthwave song like Greece last year, but it does have a lot more meat and it's quite catchy. Positively surprised.

 

[revallsay]

I kinda like it, it is a usuall uptemp song with DJ and singer to dance to. It will stand out for sure in May

 

[njdevils94]

Do you know the song by Anger?

Well I saw the lyrics and the fact that it is in German is already a plus so feel very confident it would've been better than this being they are an Indie group.

u can find out if your assumption is right very soon as ANGER will release the song in 2 weeks
