Oh those weren't covers? "Knight In Shining Armour" sounded really familiar :D.

"Knight In Shining Armour" doesn't really mean "ridder in een glanzend pakje" :lol:. It's an English expression, in Dutch it would sound more like "hoffelijke man", like this it sounds a lot better :lol:.

No please, no VTM :s! I hope it won't come ever up in their minds to join.
They are great in ruining things, look what happened when they got the rights to broadcast the world cup :s!

Isn't 'Knight in shining armour' just an expression like 'Mr. Right' ;d?

This all makes me think of Buiten de zone's "Roze Ridder". God, I miss that show :D.

REALLY. The longer I listen to Silke - Awake , the more frustrated I get about HOW GOOD it is & how much better it is than Iris. Just look at the Live video below: She sings perfectly clear, the act was made quickly for the show but is already good (imo) and it's just an amazing track. In the comments a lot of people also say 'Go to eurovision with it'. Ugh sooo frustrating how good it is :(

^Indeed much much much much much better, but who knows maybe the VRT will send her in 2014 :D.

Tbh it would be really impossible to send her. She just came second in a show, she has a contract with VTM, so it was impossible for the VRT to send her and she was not known at all when the VRT went for Iris.

Yeah Silke's song is great and would do well at Eurovision but I still think Iris is an underrated performer!
