The stage seems too big for her at the start of the song and it continues to swallow her throughout the opening 45 seconds until the dancers comes on and they do some power strutting down the stage and generally making a nuisance of themselves. It becomes “busy” all of a sudden with lights and the stage moving beneath her and changing light formations and some light angry choreography and, whilst on the one hand that suits “angry” Mei, on the other hand I’m not sure it suits this competition.
It’s a complete juxtaposition and I do think that she will scare the voters, with both her grating voice and her vocal style but, in some songs that’s a good thing as they need to be told to vote for a song, in this one I suspect they’ll just cower in the corner and wet their pants. I can still see it qualifying though.
You know you love it, really, inside deep down, I know you do! Boom best Israeli entry for sometime. Biased that I am. Mei!
