On reflection, Iceland were utterly robbed at Eurovison
Je ne sais pas porquoi
Right, we’ve had a few days to digest the experience that was Eurovision over the weekend and keep coming to the conclusion that Hera Bjork is the best thing to happen to gays and music since…. Well, since we were obsessed with the last Robyn single, frankly (we’ve had Paula Seling and Ovi’s Playing With Fire on repeat too, but no one else in the office is with me on that one).
Je Ne Sias Quoi is quite simply a brilliant balls out, tits out, electro pop stormer, a heady mix of GCSE French, dramatic diva piano, four to the floor, It’s Raining Men moments, sauna synth riffs and that gut wrenchingly brilliant key change. And the video…. Oh the video:
She’s the antithesis of your tiny pop muppets and big lunged divas and we are properly, full on obsessed. *screams, does bow and arrow, bow and arrow dance moves*
