01 – Iceland – Open Your Heart - Birgitta
After Madonna and The Human League, a third good song with the same title. A fantastic, powerful pop song, with stirring strings and a good lyric. The video is good too, for one that obviously didn't cost a lot of money. It may even grab some of the kiddie vote from Germany's cartoon. (Do children vote though? I doubt it.) There's a subliminal message to my compatriots in this video too. See the name 'Birgitta' in lights at the back? When they light the alternate letters, it clearly says 'Brit', in an attempt to brainwash us and make us vote for Iceland. When I find out where the Igta people live, I will warn them too. This song will get the Eurovision train right on track from the start and blasting out of Riga station, which is just as well, because it's about to be derailed at the next stop, somewhere near Vienna...
