Just an observation, but I really want to know what peoples definition of a “banger” is. I don’t see this song being a banger…
Luxembourg is back, but with this song we are all back in 2006. I don’t like the mix of 2 languages. Why do viewers have to understand she’s a fighter in English? make it all in French, like Austria’s ZOË – Loin d’Ici in 2016. We want a sweet candy song in French!
“I’m a fighter”
sounds strong like a fighter.
“Je suis une combattante” croissante,
sounds weak and silly.
I like the French and English mix. It makes it more enjoyable.
Luxemburg is back after so many decades! Amazing !!!
Marymount, same school supergirl actress melissa benoist also studied
*Voice control* for the live show, por favor. No talk about singing and running on a treadmill in preparation for Malmø please, it sounds old and unprofessional.
Otherwise I’m shocked at how lame this 10 points is. Totally unfair on the reader.
Fighter <3
