I wanna be close to my mother
I wanna belong to the world
A mirror that shows technicolor
I'd be a magnificent girl

But everything is frustrating
Everything moves along
Faster than I can relate to

But I got power, yeah
Midnight is the hour, yeah
Time to take off your cloaks

Techni-technicolour
Techni-technicolour
If we stand together
We can do whatever
Techni-technicolour
Techni-technicolour
If we care for one another
We can

I wanna know that there's a future
That I can move myself towards
And yet I promise you
Yes all you nasty dudes
I don't need certainty
To get my pot of gold

Everything is frustrating
Everything moves along
Faster than I can relate to

But we got grace, yeah
We got style and lasers, yeah
Time to take off your cloaks

Techni-technicolour
Techni-technicolour
If we stand together
We can do whatever
Techni-technicolour
Techni-technicolour
If we care for one another
We can

Australia's been good in this contest, but I don't think they are where they wanna be as of now

Montaigne is my Osiris/Paenda of the year. Stunning, beautiful, neglected.

The main issue probably was her forced absence from the main stage in Rotterdam. There was so much left to be desired from the staging.

Australia fell into the trap of sending something "Eurovision-y" instead of sending actual songs people would add to a playlist outside of the fandom. This didn't hit me until I saw the staging and costuming, which felt like they were forcing the whole package into that early 2008-2011 Eurovision look.

I figured they wanted to change things up, which is why they went in this direction. Australia, go back please.

Technicolour is a mess. The 2020 song was much, much better, and worked great with her voice and the planned concept.

It's a beautiful mess and a completely undeserved flop.

The worst Australian entry, but then she’ll always have the benefit of not being there in person so, which is obviously good for her as she was clearly terrified of being the first NQ for Australia

Okay... her "thank you Europe" at the end of her performance was kinda sad

that being said, comparing this LOT performance to all the others... this way definitely one of the better. Mayhaps they knew they weren't going to be in Rotterdam so they put in more effort and resources than all the other countries. Still feels like SBS lowkey did Montaigne dirty

Surprised nobody's posted this already, this seems to be the song she thought was too weird for Eurovision.... not exactly a masterpiece like "Don't Break Me", but i think it would have done pretty well, possibly better than "Technicolour"....

In what world is this song weirder than technicolor? The video is.. well nuts, but not the song itself.
I prefer it to both of her Eurovision entries.
