Stay
The story barely started
Can't you
Stay
Do you really want no part of this
Oh so sweet
Reverie
You back off slowly through the door
You always go and blame the weather
The weather

It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black

And I'm numb, numb
Numb, numb

Wait
I need some time to fix this can't you wait ?
We can't afford to miss this
You back off slowly through the door
You always go and blame the weather
The weather

It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black

And I'm numb, numb
Numb, numb

We're living in a memory
The present is the price I pay
Fade to black
Fade to black

It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black​

For anyone that is interested in knowing more about King Nadir:

There are English subtitles. I believe he talked about his ESC entry too.

Every day I have to remind myself that both Azerbaijan and Armenia are yet to reveal a song... And every day, I find that I care a little less.

They really need to release it already, get a move on people!

Nah. Hopefully, Azerbaijan will also wait and release it on Saturday (like :am)
Let us enjoy the last (fake) SuperSaturday this NF season!
(lowkey praying for Malta to change their entry again)

Just finished watching the interview, some tidbits:
  • Nadir is a professional swimmer (wouldn't have expected that).
  • 300 songs were submitted, 6 songs were shortlisted based on the suitability to his voice but he only recorded 4 as these are the ones that he really like.
  • The 4 songs are in various genres - hard rock, soft rock, ballad etc.
  • The selected song is about love and he describes it as a beautiful song.
  • He did not disclose the genre of his entry as he is not allowed to.
  • He explained how the "Julius Caesar" connection came about and it may/may not be related to his ESC entry (I think likely it's not).
  • Being able to perform in ESC is his childhood dream and he started watching ESC closely when Azerbaijan started taking part in 2008.
  • The music video has been filmed (it is filmed in Azerbaijan - duh considering the time restrictions) but he has yet to see the final product.
  • The music video contains stunning views and scenery, will show different sides of him and is interesting like a film.
  • He is confident that people following Eurovision will talk about it.
He comes across pretty likeable. And totally does not look like your typical Azeri.

The song to be performed by Nadir Rustamli was submitted for Melodifestivalen but was rejected.

Dotter is providing backing vocals in the song.

Oh f*ck n*!
This song must have be written on the same day like :mt: as part of that songwriting camp for basic Melodifestivalen rejects hosted by Denmark last summer :(

Hopefully, :az: somehow got the better entry....otherwise,.welcome to my Bottm 5.
Denmark and Malta have been waiting for some company

Makes total sense because swimming in Spanish is just a Hamming distance of 1 removed from his name. xcrazy
