Read the lyrics to “Straight Into Love”—Hannah’s ESC 2013 song for Slovenia. Then let us know what you think of it in the comments box below. Is this Slovenia’s best song to date? Or is it straight Eurotrash?
Faster than light here comes the night
Tomorrow is now
You flow through my veins, inside me you’ll stay
There is no doubt
You’re one in this world, no diamonds no pearls
Like your love divine
So high off the ground, we’ll never come down
No limit no sky
Straight into love, we’ll break through the dark
And light the world up from the sky when we collide
Straight into love and never let go
We’ll light the world up from the sky into the night
No turning the tide, with eyes open wide
There’s no stopping now
With all that we have we stand on the edge
Before we die down
Straight into love, we’ll break through the dark
And light the world up from the sky when we collide
Straight into love
We’ll light the world up from the sky into the night
We found the place where we belong
Out of the dark our flame is strong
We’re moving fast, we won’t look back
Higher and higher we go
Straight into love, oh
Straight into love
Straight into love
We’ll light the world up from the sky into the night
This song will go viral around the world. I think it’s current and very under rated. Can’t wait to see it live.
I have loved Slovenian entries almost every year. This year is no exception. Hannah reminds me of Rozalla from the 1991’s with Everybody’s free (to feel good) and ‘Are you ready to fly’. It has the same feel over it. Hopefully Hannah will give a very good performance and makes it to the final. Slovenia is this year my guilty pleasure!
I’m always happy to see Slovenia do well. This should get them into the final, but it will depend on the performance how well it does from there.
Love it! Maybe a few muscular topless male dancers and a touch of neon is missing but can’t wait to set my disco ball spinning and turn the speakers up on this come the contest!
Starts well, then switches immediately into a well-worn eurodance arrangement. That would be fine except that it never really comes alive. Any interest created in the opening bars will carry for a while, but not the full three minutes. The whole arrangement needs more character and contrast, not just a sprinkling of effects over default backing. I was going to suggest that the lyrics might have lost something in translation, but then I remembered that Hannah is American. Perhaps they should translate the lyrics FROM English TO Slovene this time ;p Rhyming is overvalued anyway, and one thing this song… Read more »
Since I support my Slovenia, when I first heard the song, I immediately thought it’s a dance track, only to be notified it’s actually a uptempo dubstep based entry. Considering the whole song’s written by Hannah herself, I’m impressed by her efforts! Now I just hope Slovenia become one of those countries that can cause a massive upset in the semi-final this year as Hannah’s song is getting a mixed reaction from what I’ve heard so far. This might attract some interest from non Eurovision fans as they probably found last year’s Slovenian entry “Verjamem” too dreary for their liking.… Read more »
