The heaviest dress of the entire contest came along with the heaviest chorus as well. How very fitting.
Maja Keuc - No One (Slovenia 2011)
It took me a long, long, long time to break into this song. I found it way more complicated than needed, taking new roads and paths through the musical landscapes, leaving the listener a bit confused as to where it would head next.
But lovely lovely Maja Keuc somehow managed to walk straight out on stage and grab the steering wheel with both hands, guiding the vessel through the reefs on to safe ground.
Powerful vocal chords matched with a strong presence, a certain authority and the kind of conviction only people willing to wear tight dresses that weigh a ton will possess.
Slovenia has had better songs than this, but their eternal problem is their inability to get their act together on stage. This time, everything fell in place beautifully.
My grade: 3 / 5
