Eurovision 2015: Spain




Every Eurovision cycle there is a song or two that the Eurovision blogosphere goes wild for that I don't understand the reason for such praise.

Two years ago it was this song:


Cascada   "Glorious"   Germany  2013

Last year it was this song:


Tanja   "Amazing"   Estonia  2014

This year, it's Spain's entry to Eurovision.


Edurne   "Amancer"

Edurne appears to have a pretty stable career in Spain, having released five albums over a nine-year career as well as being a reality TV star in Spain with appearances on a number of high profile television shows.

The song, however, is boring.   It's a Spanish dance song that lacks any verve.   It's a disappointment in comparison to their entry last year, which was a memorable song and performance (even if it wasn't my favorite.)

Perhaps she'll deliver on the night, but right now it's completely off target.

If someone can explain why this is so popular, I'd love to know.
