How is he going to fit into all of this? I forgot about him for a while, so has everyone else, too, forgotten about him?<br /><br />-FinlandStefanosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537116796896109976.post-31781563887755812832011-03-07T23:27:36.376-06:002011-03-07T23:27:36.376-06:00I think it's the "ay-yai-yai!" that ...I think it's the "ay-yai-yai!" that makes me think of Marie...and while the bridge might not be imaginative, it seems to want to build up to something that the chorus simply doesn't deliver. <br /><br />::sigh::Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11268580219171083285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7537116796896109976.post-85684487395433359082011-03-07T15:58:17.042-06:002011-03-07T15:58:17.042-06:00When my eyes landed on the headline "Emmy to ...When my eyes landed on the headline "Emmy to perform Boom Boom in Düsseldorf", I could hear a needle scratch a record. I totally counted out Boom Boom from the possibilities, and was convinced that Ayo would go, even if Hi was the other contender in my mind. Hi was overdesigned, in my view. Ayo looked very much like the best choice.<br /><br />Perhaps sending Ayo with Emmy would invite too many comparisons between that and Qele Qele by Sirusho? Maybe Ayo would have been too predictable, and Emmy would have gotten lost amongst the tradition she would be following?<br /><br />Boom Boom is not bad, in the end. It sounds a bit like something from the Crash Bandicoot soundtrack. The "let's try and hold our spirits high" part is such a cute lead up to the chorus! This song seems to have some Latin undertones, which may be giving you that "I Wanna" vibe. The bridge, though, seems like nothing, like there to fill space; that could use some work. The chorus, while cute, lacks a certain impact, I think.<br /><br />-FinlandStefanosnoreply@blogger.com
