2013: The Worst

PER WITH "HERE WE GO" FOR LATVIA

This song reminds me of a bad rip off of "Unbelievable" by EMF. While that song is an essential piece of nineties nostalgia, the Latvian copy just irked me. The lyrics were just too contrived for me to enjoy any minute of these guys bouncing on stage. I don't care if they did the first stage dive in Eurovision history, and neither did Europe.

Maybe the audience was just as annoyed by this song that was trying way too hard to be fun. I do believe the guys on stage were having a good time but I couldn't get with it. The "so alive, we can fly" lyric just killed any enjoyment for me - and I usually don't put too much weight on ESL lyrics. Sorry Latvia. You're a beautiful country but this wasn't your best example.
