How can a song turn this thread into Harry Potter convo ?

Now am REALLY curious to hear that song

 

[Mainshow]

I think the swinging refers to Harry potters wand and maybe showing the Evidence of his Equus performances would have been more appropriate, as this is the only photo of Harry‘s „wand“ that I can think of.

What you mean is winging something, like do something with ease, isn’t it?

I completely forgot about Dan´s Equus performance!
Didn´t imagine her to make a reference to that "moment".

Actually, I thought of "swing it" as an idiomatic expression.
I just googled it now.. "swing" something can definitely mean to "successfully manage/do sth"/"make sth happen".

When I was listening to the track, I really couldn´t come up with why she chose to tell someone "to do it as successfully as Harry Potter" - The phrase in the song, however, is already iconic.
Kudos to her!

Good advice to everyone: Do not analyze lyrics too much

I am not sure if she actually meant Equus with that, I certainly hope not, but in a song about dancefloors, wands were definitely the first swingable things on my mind and that translated from actual wands to „wands“ quickly.

Thanks for the link, I had actually never heard that expression, and given „wing it“ is very similar, I thought you meant that.

Keira's song is trending number one in Finland.

She was in last season The Voice of FInland. She became third place. I watched her performances in yesterday and they were excellent.

 

[heke1988]

Last year Bess had over 120k youtube watch and was also trending number one in Finland the day after her song was released. Now Keira has over 65k and she is also trending number one in Finland. This is amazing. Harry Potter was Golden Snitch?

 

[Looren]

Just listened to Keira's song

Good song, I like the build-up, her voice and instrumental parts

And now I also got why people started talking about Harry Potter there

NOT if she addresses Harry Potter´s "swinging wand"

Well, it's very 80's, I guess? The song is alright, but nothing exciting. So far neither Keira nor Benjamin really grabbed me. I hope there's a pearl among the rest!

 

[aef]

Okay so has officially become this years bop country?

 

[LoveHate]

So far
1. Keira
2. Benjamin

I hope Robin has a good song because he will be representing Finland.
