Hungary – I like Boggie…. everybody should

I like this song. Possibly because I was forced, at gunpoint, to watch A Dal for six weeks for Eurovision Ireland so I have an affinity for this song.

It’s could just be argued that it is slow dirge that would do nothing in this contest because there are so many ballads it’s untrue. However, it is a half decent crafted song in which Boggie actually believes the things she is singing about. You can tell by looking into her eyes, I believe that she cares about the subject matter… the titular “wars” are not all about fighting if you listen to the lyric. It’s not anti war, it’s anti oppression really. Her message may be lost on the cynical but there is a truth behind this performance which is very very overpowering.

Simple song staged simply without any fuss or bother. It makes you sway from side to side and thats a good thing… It might not get the result it deserves because it could well blend into the background but that would be a shame.
