Margaret Berger is one to watch. To be frank, she’s the kind
of artist I’d love to see more of in Eurovision: contemporary and already
making an impact beyond just the confines of fandom. Her song is a darkly
brooding tale of love which she wishes us to feast upon. In fact she’s going to
feed it directly to us. The minx! On stage she’s all Nordic Ice-Queen, oozing
sex from every curve of her snug-fitting bondage-frock. Her vocals pierce the
throbbing electronic beat and the lighting adds to a steadily energetic frenzy
which is going to raise the roof in Malmö. It’s a delicious combination, one of
those Eurovision songs that has its grounding way outside the Contest’s
traditions and advances the modernity of the show by years. I really like this,
and it seems a clear contender for a top 5 finish, if not the overall winner.
Whatever the outcome you feel that Berger’s going to use the show as a stepping
stone to a successful career, and this is refreshing; where the UK and some
others are so long in the tooth that being given the gig is the career
equivalent of being put out to pasture it’s nice to see countries like Norway
and acts like our Maggie, The Feeder, coming at it from precisely the opposite
view. Delicious! Feed me more!
My score: douze points!
