My Week in Music

Why not? My first couple posts were about my musical tastes, and here's an update on what I've been listening to!

The songs that have been stuck in my head this week:

The Joker - Steve Miller Band


Caramelldansen - Caramell


Jag Soona Soona Lage - Om Shanti Om


Miss Kiss Kiss Bang - Alex Swings! Oscar Sings! (Germany Eurovision)


When She's Near - Fiction Family

Eurovision Fever

Right around now, countries across Europe are holding contests for musicians to determine a representative to the Eurovision Song Contest, a, well, song contest between the nations of Europe.

I'm hooked. Most of the songs tend to be utterly horrible, but there are always a few gems. So, my hopes for this year's winner:

3. Romania - Elena Gheorghe singing "The Balkan Girls" is ridiculously catchy, and if it weren't for her sluttiness and obvious pop overtones, it might be mistaken for a great dance song.

2. Greece - Sakis Rouvas can pelvic thrust like no other. The song ("This Is Our Night") isn't bad either.

1. Estonia - Absolutely gorgeous and haunting. The song is beautiful. Sandra Nurmsalu with Urban Symphony singing "Rändajad." [Note: I found the lyrics!]
