…talking of kitchen sinks, this one has them too in a very different way. Krista knows what this song is about and she clearly plays up to the song – and thats not a bad thing to be honest. Her pronunciation of key words (and you know which ones they are) is better.
It’s everything you would expect it to be, and then bits you don’t – like a wedding veil attached to her head and a wind machine, and then, of course, that kiss.
Talking of the kiss … At the end of the run-through, stage-manager Hendrick insisted there be “No Tongues” – to which Krista coyly protested.
It’s a shame it’s coming on after Azerbaijan, but in my humble opinion this shows Azerbaijan off as being formulaic whereas Krista knows she’s taking the piss.
Two facets of Eurovision back to back make this song a good one. Should qualify as there is hardly anything to work on with this one – thankfully the package stands up to scrutiny.
As an aside, and if anyone knows the answer I’d be grateful, Krista seems to be damaged, Her knee is in a Tubegrip bandage. Does anyone know why??
Edit 1 – RALF GYLLENHALL PYROS!! – YLE clearly have raised the piggy bank for this one – sets it all off a treat!
