This one starts dark and dramatic, but soon descends into what sounds like yet another Swiss non-qualifier.
I’ve heard this sort of thing so often in recent years, and it never seems to pick up either jury or televoter points. It’s perfectly professional, ‘Stones’ has a vague hook, but – as a package – it takes itself far too seriously.
It isn’t the worst song this year, but being drawn in the first semi-final means Zibbz might want to look into flexible air tickets and check the refund policy on their hotel.
Worth noting that the official music video runs to nearly four minutes, so maybe the dramatic bit at the start will go. Shame, given that’s the most effective part!
