Countdown to Eurovision
2013: my all-time favourites
 |
| "And we will be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee etc" |
The UK songs rarely do
it for me and the live performance was a little underwhelming for a
blimmin' TONY winner, but here's a special mention for my favourite UK entry
to date (sorry Scooch). It's just a genuinely cracking pop song – clearly too sophij for Eurovij; tenth was a pretty terrible result for the UK at the time. More importantly, I clearly remember craving Frances' slinky
goth dress – maroon velvet was the effing bomb in the mid nineties – and
I'm sure that her twisted coat-hanger crown was also on my list. Obviously, I would have pared that outfit with some battered old Doc Martins. *nineties swoon*
It's also a classic example of how they used to make the singers appear in the preview vid (they SO
should bring that back) and how, hosting the second time in a row,
Irish TV were already running out of things to feature about the
Emerald Isle – and they still had another year to go. HA!
Anyway, enjoy - even though you'll have "and we will be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" running in your head all day now. ALL DAY.
