A Song For Europe: Song 4: Fade Away
Artist: Pulse
Writers: Stuart Hanna, Alistair Griffin

Very worryingly, the singer sounds like Cliff Richard. This is very Radio 2. Not my cup of tea at all. It’s well sung and all that, and quite rousing, but I can’t see this as a Eurovision song at all. Amusingly, the intro reminds me of Dean Friedman’s ‘Lucky Stars’, and he has a similar kind of breathy vocal style too.
“Hold me while I’m sleeping, in case I fall, in case I fade away.” So it’s a song about dying in your sleep. That’ll cheer us up in Estonia.
