JOWST "Grab The Moment"
JOWST isn't the singer, Aleksander Walmann is the singer. JOWST is the producer--the man in the Daft Punk knockoff mask. He's come up with song that could be played in the background of an upscale clothing store like Uniqlo. "Grab The Moment" a song that sounds familiar, sounds like it was cutting edge a couple years ago, and obscure enough to have the cachet of cool.
I'm just interested to see how this song is going to be performed in Kyiv. There's a lot of mechanically recorded voices. That's one of the few verboten things at Eurovision. Vocals must be performed live. The chorus is Waldmann's voice put through electronic processing and if this is allowed, there could be a precedent setter.
I don't see the song being an obvious qualifier. Although there's some producing wizadry at work in the song, the staging is deathly static. There's nothing to catch the eye and during the national final performance, I was critiquing Waldmann's hat and shirt combo, which is not a good sign.
