COUNTDOWN TO VIENNA - LATVIA!

Poor Latvia.  They've gone from winning the contest just two years after they debuted, in 2002, to scarcely qualifying for the final these days.  In fact the last time that Latvia made the final was in 2008 with a group bounding around with Jolly Roger flags as Pirates were all they could be...!

So no pressure on Aminata then, with her song "Love Injected".  This is an odd one for me, even now after hearing it about 38 times, sometimes I love it, and sometimes I just want to make it stop!  Have a look and listen below:


Here are the views of our esteemed panel:

Asta Bjornsdottir:  " First listen; starts strange and then there‘s a lot of noise. I can‘t hear a lot of melody in this one. This is a strange one, very forced singing, don‘t like it!"

Hasse Skoldebjer:"I quite like this one, sounds different compared too most of the other songs 6/10"

Annemieke Kelleter: "Very intriguing song. I actually prefer the live version of this one, it's a bit more exciting. She's a good singer and it's a modern song bit it doubt this will do very well."

Adam and Charlotte Lane: "Brave, but too brave for Eurovision? There’s no denying that this lady can sing. There are lots of things I like about this song, as a composition, as a piece of production, but it doesn’t quite hold together as a crowd pleaser for Eurovision. 3.5/10."

Well it certainly made the pop panel listen!! But what do you think? Why not let us know by commenting below? ;)
