Finland FINLAND 2022 - The Rasmus - Jezebel

[escYOUnited]

​

Midnight, it's time to put your face on
Game set, a killer shark in heels
I'm just the first shot on your hit list
High kicks, a predator on wheels
Woke up with bruises on my body
Hands tied, like Jesus on the cross
Your name's in lipstick on the mirror

Jezebel
I don't know how you got in my blood
Was it the dangerous things you do?
You always wanted to be a star
Jezebel
If you're the hunter then I'm the prey
You lick your lips as you walk away
Your final kiss is to leave a scar
On a heart
Jezebel

At night you turn into a tiger
A girl who looks like she's a boy
The world's most ultimate survivor

Jеzebel (Jezеbel)
I don't know how you got in my blood (Jezebel)
Was it the dangerous things you do? (Jezebel)
You always wanted to be a star
Jezebel (Jezebel)
If you're the hunter then I'm the prey (Jezebel)
You lick your lips as you walk away (Jezebel)
Your final kiss is to leave a scar
On a heart

Sunrise, you crawl under the covers
Sleep tight until the dying sun
Tonight you'll catch another lover
Jezebel

Jezebel (Jezebel)
I don't know how you got in my blood (Jezebel)
Was it the dangerous things you do? (Jezebel)
You always wanted to be a star
Jezebel (Jezebel)
If you're the hunter then I'm the prey (Jezebel)
You lick your lips as you walk away (Jezebel)
Your final kiss is to leave a scar
On a heart

Jezebel (Jezebel)
Jezebel (Jezebel)
Jezebel

BREAKING NEWS!!!

theditz83 in "putting my weight behind a rock song" shocker thanks to The Rasmus

At least for now - we'll see what else is to come...

 

[mauve]

Do you expect a lot of this, mauve?

I don't know Olivera, but all four songs so far were surprisingly good, so I have high hopes!

 

[Ajeje Brazorf]

Waiting for another great entry tonight: 'til now all 4 of the songs are a 7/10 or higher. UMK this year is really strong...

 

[mauve]

Olivera's song is probably the weakest so far for me.Especially her voice is annoying - so nothing for me.

 

[Looren]

Nice voice, good song, 9/10 my 4th so far

 

[lasse braun]

5/10

 

[Sammy]

Olivera: not the kind of songs I really like. Sometimes they grow with me as the songs of Viktoria, but in this case, I don't know. But boy would I like to see the uproar of christian people who have never heard of the contest before but feel the need to protest if that song really got chosen. (which it won't probably because of the strong competition in UMK this year)

Olivera - Thank God I’m an Atheist

I'm going to be tremendously kind and give 5 points. The song is sweet. The vocals awaken the Lord Satan within me. Could those words be baby voiced and swirled around in the mouth any more before being released? I think it would be hard.

 

[Mrm]

Very good entry!

For now:

1. Olivera - "Thank God I'm an Atheist" 9/10
2. The Rasmus – “Jezebel” 8/10
3. Younghearted – “Sun numero” 7/10
4. BESS – “Ram pam pam” 4/10
5. Cyan Kicks – “Hurricane” 2/10

 

[Ajeje Brazorf]

It's not a bad song, but I'm not a fan of her voice... I want to like it more but I can't, a pity...

 

[mauve]

1. The Rasmus - Jezebel 10/10
2. Younghearted - Sun numero 9/10
3. Cyan Kicks - Hurricane 7/10
4. BESS - Ram pam pam 6/10
5. Olivera - Thank god I'm an atheist 3/10

 

[ESC94]

Urgh, I´m sorry but I had to stop the song halfway through, I really hate her voice.

 

[Ajeje Brazorf]

My top 5 until now:

1 - The Rasmus - Jezebel 10/10 (earworm)
2 - Bess - Ram Pam Pam 9/10 (earworm no°2)
3 - Cyan Kicks - Hurricane 7/10
4 - Younghearted - Sun Numero 7/10
5 - Olivera - Thank God I'm an atheist 5/10

Abour two seconds into the song, I knew this post was coming! Thanks for not disappointing!

I'm going to go against the grain and say that this is my favourite so far. I enjoyed the lyrics and it just rolled along nicely. I can definitely see why a large number of people could have problems with her singing-style, though. I think I'd normally feel the same, but something just worked with this one.

 

[Gwendal]

It's getting complicated.
I like it a lot. But there's no chance to figure it out well in a competitive context...
Or?

To be honest, something sort of worked for me too. I wanted to be harsher but couldn't as despite the vocals being way off the mark for me, the song did still have a certain charm to it. I do appreciate the vibe it's going for. With different vocals I'd probably be able to quite easily squeeze some proper enjoyment from it. It's not bad at all.

 

[Datura]

just listened to the 5 songs that are available so far: what a surprisingly strong selection!
i really like Younghearted (very athmospheric, could use a little more climax towards the end) and the Rasmus (i find the melody really catchy), BESS (verses are great, chorus a bit too forced for my taste) and Cyan Kicks are great aswell, Olivera is my least fave so far but still a good song.

I'm gonna tell you what it is actually, you are still under the wave of "Rise" by Francesca...You are still shaking of that masterpiece..you won't recover that soon, believe me...

 

[Ana Raquel]

Her voice completely destroys any kind of enjoyment I could have had with this song

Completely insufferable

 

[Mainshow]

After hearing her singing the first three words I immediately wanted to turn off the video because I think that her voice is utterly annoying BUT I´m glad I didn´t because what a hell of a song! - After a few more seconds, I completely forgot that her voice was so "horrible" and I was able to fully enjoy the whole song. It is clearly a very charming, captivating and interesting entry.

Finland! - I´m so impressed... this has been an excellent national final so far!
