And, its....
Anastasiya Petryk - Nebo / Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012 !!!!!!
I'm really not sure how to go about reviewing this song, because a) I don't actually like it that much and b) she's like 10 years old.
This is from the largely unwatched and undercovered Junior Eurovision Song Contest. Anyway, there's something catchy and magical about this song, and I need to express how weird it is that Ukraine keeps going for these dubstep tunes. (ref. "Be My Guest - Gaitana").
I mean, she's 10. Is dubstep really her thing?
The chorus is...well, I wouldn't describe it as catchy, but it's nice and she does hold a tune. The background haunting vocals are a bit misplaced. I mean, what's the context? There is a Prince of Egypt thing going on, like one of the singers from the soundtrack wandered over to the Netherlands to back this chick up? But this is supposed to be the Ukraine, aww hell I'm confused. The whole thing makes it seem a bit cheesy, but I LOVE her dress. She is one lucky pop tart.
"Zank you veddy maaach!"
Anyway, give it a listen. Millions of curious Europeans voted for her, after all. 138 points? Wow.
Also, look at the competition she overcame. Other entrants included: Georgia, Armenia, Russia, Belgium, Sweden, The Netherlands, Israel, and Belarus. So uh...yeah.
At least she sang in her own godamned language. Sort of, for most of it, yes.
