Greece GREECE 2022 - Amanda Tenfjord - Die Together

[escYOUnited]

I'm in you're back seat
You are driving me crazy
You're in fully control
It's like you always know so
Are you having a good time?
Doesn't seem like you're all fine
We don't laugh anymore
And when we cry we do it on our own

It's been a lovely year for us
Yeah, that's what they say
It's been a hell of year
And we've been living in fear
Close to giving up

But if we die together now
We will always have each other
I won't lose you for another
And if we die together now
I will hold you till forever
If we die together, die together now

I love you, say that you love me too
That's the only way we can get out of this hell we made

It's been a lovely year for us
Yeah that's what they say
It's been a hell of year
And we've been living in fear
Close to giving up

But if we die together now
We will always have each other
I won't lose you for another
And if we die together now
I will hold you till forever
If we die together, die together

Take my heart and rip it out
Bring it to the other side
Take my heart and rip it out
Bring it to the other side

Take my heart and rip it out
Bring it to the other side
Take my heart and rip it out
Oh, Take my heart and rip it out

But if we die together now
We will always have each other
I won't lose you for another
And if we die together
I will hold you till forever
If we die together, die together now​

The kind of indie pop I can't stand perhaps I like the ballad more than stuff like Kill The Lonely (which ughhhh), but it very likely Greece won't be well ranked for me this time.

 

[ESC94]

Well, I´m not impressed to be honest. I find her style of singing very raging, it gets on my nerves very quickly.

 

[Ana Raquel]

real music

Why are you acting like Salvador Sobral I thought you hated m*n?????

 

[GianlucaTomoe]

It's fine if you don't care for the style of the songs she released so far, let's wait for her ESC-song. But you also know what would've happened if a certain other thing had been selected instead, the delirium and the obsession would've been unbearable to endure until May 2022.

 

[EscGeek]

I like her music.
She's no Circus Mircus or IMP but i like what i heard so far...

 

[Mrm]

I cant say much based on what I heard..
But it could be promising..

Is she of Scandinavian descent?

Well, good luck!

I didn't know her and googled her ... I have the feeling that her song might be one to fall asleep with ... I hope I am wrong though.

I mean if it's the one I'm thinking of, I wouldn't have liked it either so Greece would most likely be dead to me either way?

Just... Please avoid this salvadoresque """real music""" speech can we leave it in 2017

You never needed it to bash overrated m*n so you definitely dont need it now

 

[Citelis]

She has foreign music background and this itself is great news.

 

[spinachpie]

It's just not going to be very exciting is it? Radio friendly, 'credible' artists just don't tend to do very well at Eurovision. Good luck though.

 

[Looren]

Greece going for the top 10 again !

I like her music, I hope she'll give us a great song !

 

[Gera11]

ohhh I actually know "Kill The Lonely" ok im interested, bring it Amanda

 

[Nicholas123]

ohhh I actually know "Kill The Lonely" ok im interested, bring it Amanda

You did not vote for it in WV, though.

 

[stephanos13]

I really like the choice of Amanda. I'm optimistic!

 

[Edweis]

You liking an indie girl, what a surprise
Just waiting now for @Arion to join your club

 

[DenizESC]

Omggg looks like it will be artsy fartsy #next

Btw Greece can't stop sending hafu's lately Curious to see which Western European hafu we get next year

Hm, Amanda. My thoughts:
I am not the biggest fan of her music, but the production is crisp, which I appreciate.
Through that small interview she had with ERT today, I gathered that she is quite likeable, and speaks Greek better than how Stefania did when she got selected in early 2020. In no way fluent, but can do conversations and isn't limited to one-worded answers.
It's very positive that her song is self-penned and not a Dream Team product. Fokas will still do the staging but his work is hit-or-miss so I can't rule out him doing a good job.
Her MV director is going to be the same that was in 2020 and 2021, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.
I really liked that little snippet. I'm a sucker for some good strings in a song.

Also, I can't rule out that since Good Job Nicky was the one to beat, there is a possibility that something in his candidacy was quite off, off enough that made ERT go for Amanda.

All in all, I'm curious to see what she has in store.

Him being antivaxx apparently?

I am so happy with this choice. Serve us "Kill the Lonely" on steroids Miss Georgiadis

@Nicholas123 I voted for her in WV, thank you for such an amazing discovery

I'm very curious what Amanda will bring. Hopefully a quality indie ballad and limited work with the Nightmare Team.
