Thankfully Belarus are sticking with it this year

They deserve a good result in the final!

Do you also like cake? If so, there are a couple of other threads waiting for your input.

Well actually I love cheesecake. In particular, I really enjoy eating Baked New York cheesecake with double cream poured over it. Yummy!

Still that's no reason to influence me with regards to Belarus 2014 - TEO - "Cheesecake". When I first watched the above video the first time I spotted it here (about 3 or 4 weeks ago now) I didn't think much of it. I've seen it once more tonight, and although I now think it's better than it was the first time I heard it, I'm still not overly keen on it. That said I can currently say it's better than Lithuania's 2014 ESC entry.

What was the meaning of that post? I notice all three smileys mean confused (3 times over) - what are you confused about?

Sadly this has fallen out of my top 10 but maybe that is because I have been listening to it for a few months.. Give it til May and it could jump back in there

I miss the "Google maps" part, that was so catchy also the strong accordion towards the end has been scrapped, but I still love the overall production of this song, and it's still in my top 5.

also the strong accordion towards the end has been scrapped,

Oh no! Shall we start a petition to save the accordion?!?

Final version

cos' I'm tired of being ... your sweet cheesecake. WHAT? This part is so weird.

What's the noise in the place of 'heh yeah' where in the video the girl is getting down on him like you know ...

I'm so sad and disappointed I hate this version

 

[Iuris]

I like the new version a lot... It's my guilty pleasure this year.

 

[Terence]

I'm starting to like this... oh help me, get me a doctor... shoooooo

I just listened for the very first time to this song. The lyrics are quite original and not too repetitive. But I'm not impressed by the vocal qualities of the singer. I don't say that he can't sing, but it's just avarage. The melody is nothing special, but in general the song gives me a smile

A funny cover version

Contradictive emotions on one side
Clueless society staring at me on the other
You’re feeding me your hysteria portion by portion
But I’ve changed my mind about seeing rings on one another
You’re not the person I want to spend my life with
You go from aggressive to capricious in a click
I only have 7 days you’ve got like 300 Fridays
I’m too young and strong but you got me health problems
I’ve become a different man and I’ll never be the same
I could try losing weight after your fast food, but I cannot cure my head cause you got me insane
I’m not your loved one I’m only a toy of yours
It pisses me off when you’re calling me that foreign loaf

(Teo, tell her!)
She doesn’t know English…

I’m saying I’m a realist, you’re saying I’m spleeny
You always need viewers when fighting with me
You want to meet my parents after each quarrel
It’s kinda harmless but it looks pretty doubtful
You know, I hate all your Facebook, Vkontakte and Twitter
Where you compare me to Matt Damon, my brother or even to your brother and Brad Pitt

Enough, I’m fed up
Keep calling me cheesecake I’ll start calling myself Freedom
Your apartment keys, the first thing I’m going to get rid of
It’s cold outside so live with your friend
I’m gonna get a haircut and shave, then I’ll go to a monastery land
If female one is full I’ll give it a better thought
Contradictive emotions run through my blood
Clueless society staring at me
You’re feeding me your cheesecake hysteria portion by portion
Because I’ve changed my mind about rings, that’s my notion

Girl: Screw you!

I am SO happy that Belarus chose this year to not change their entry! Fantastic song still

I was justing thinking that and was about to write it but I refreshed the page and there was your comment. That's kind of freaky, just like it's kind of freaky how Belarus haven't changed their entry this year.

I've grown fond of the old "Cheesecake" song but i'm still waiting on the iconic, prize winning soprano Elena Sinyavskaya to complain that she didn't win and for the song to be changed to her "Via Lattea".
