We turn third in our Eurovision section, and having finished reviewing Spain’s time at the Festival in the last 20 years, we now move on to recall some of the biggest hits it has had. Eurovision: Be careful, we are not talking about great positions, but about the songs that, year after year, touch our hearts at that time.

Today we rewind to 2015, when people from Electro velvet they brought Eurovision up to around 20 or so designed by members Come on.

Song

In 2013 it was released in cinemas.The Great Gatsby’. For some reason, two years later, the British thought that it would be a good idea to bring back the spirit of the 20s to Eurovision, but with a design that might have come from the hands of sailors from Eurovision. Come on or a man in a wig going to work Cartoon. And that’s how it was born Electro Velvetthe duo consists of Alex Larke And Bianca Nicholas -who has competed in several talents-.

‘Still in Love with You’ This is basically it Aramis Fuster in a fringed dress shouting Europe “Let me be funny!” know that, ‘Still love you’. I know. Because you don’t. You pretend to perform with so much retro orchestration and uptempo spirit, but the fun never ends. Basically it’s a photo of a guiri in England in front of the sign’Exciting End‘. And in such a way that it ended.

The song was composed by David Mindel, who has worked for many years on television jingles and music for commercials and television programs. The author was almost 70 years old when this book was published, we don’t need to explain how this influenced the final result.

He electro–swing and it Scat–song (that part sounds like the soundtrack ‘The Jungle Book’) should be a flashy and entertaining element, but with a race Michael Buble active and apparently must be taken seriously by the media, this is an absolute thing bluff.

The acting

We complain a lot about Spain, but the UK has also historically complained too Eurovision with obvious nonsense that tries to distract us from the fact that the song is, in fact, an important painting. In the year of Electro Velvet, some LED settings that brought delegates out of the bitterness of the exercise. Because sometimes they succeed and sometimes they don’t.

On finals day, they worked. ‘Function‘ in the sense that the lights are on and follow the rhythm of the song, because of what ‘function‘ from ‘on television it’s good’, not so much. It looked like the strategy of a high school musical when the little artist in charge had a brilliant idea.

For a beautiful proposal between shows water in a ’90s Love’ and a dance where they kill someone ‘It has written evil’ It should be added that Electro Velvet They have the same charisma as those shoes Edurne in the ‘Dawn‘. And there’s less chemistry than a pure literature student’s schedule.

Alex She spends half of her performance stiffly waiting for her turn to make her move and the role of the sexy, mysterious girl in it Bianca does not match Maruchi Fashions suits designed by Thomas Edison.

Results

24th place with only 5 points: one from Ireland, one from Malta and three from San Marino, known for its vintage fever style.

Although since 2000, England have finished 25th or 26th on four occasions, the duo’s position was even worse than the data suggests: they achieved – up to that time – the country’s second-worst historical score. In fact, the glorious number 0 must come James New person in 2021 so that Electro velvet It was the third worst rating for a British song at the Festival.

In the list, things are not much better: ‘Still love you’ It did not surpass #114 on the UK singles chart, becoming #63 on the digital downloads chart. The song only entered the Austrian charts at #53, strangely the country did not give them any points on the day of the Festival. Not even Ireland, Malta or San Marino are registered.

What is curious, the duo tried their luck again by publishing another single, ‘Take me Homein 2018, after allegedly delaying plans to release an EP due to ill health Bianca. Apparently they don’t publish anything anymore, and on his Instagram profile you can see it he takes on the past with a bit of humor.
