I felt at least a little vindicated when mine qualified, though I imagine it was by the skin of its teeth. However as "Born On the Wind" (lol indeed) seems universally derided, and in fact not even interesting enough to muster up a more scathing put down than "dull dull dull", I almost feel I have to EXPLAIN myself
It's 100% a generic pop song, yes, but I entered that because I genuinely kind of love it. I think the melody is actually lovely and as a song it's simple and effective - better via headphones mind. I found it quite recently and have been listening a lot (the sound quality of both youtube and spotify version sounds crap to me, but that might be more because the song was made in a few hours- yes, it took that long!) There wasn't much more thought to it than that, but I stand by it. I definitely could have made more "effort", but then I could say that about 70% of entries, regardless of musical differences.
As I say, my approach to Kalavision was entirely different and I have (or had) way more faith in doing well there.
Still I was utterly gobsmacked and delighted to be in the final, so tonight should be fun even if bottom 5 beckons!
God that’s far too much analysis and explaining for such a non entity of a song (love you really)
