Malta MALTA 2018 - Christabelle - Taboo

[Mrm]

Sticks and stones will break my soul
Gotta be your own miracle, miracle
It's in my bones got to break the taboo
Before we all become animals, animals...

This entry is MESMERIZING!

Christabelle go to the FINAL!

Break all the ESC taboos Christabelle!

I must admit, this entry is growing on me. And well done to them for being one of the few countries to put real effort into the music video. Kudos!

I ADORE that video, but can you explain me what about it actually is!?

It seems like a cross between Mad Max and Hunger Games.

I don't like this, but I feel that the music video is a tease for an amazing stage show from Malta, and at the end I'm gonna end up hoping it qualifies.
Plus, there is something really endearing about Christabelle.

 

[Realest]

Hopefully Juries give her only 70-75 Points this Time, otherwise she will Qualify.

I really want to like this song, but the tropes/motifs that she uses are just so overused: animals, taboo, "stick and stones won't break my soul/bones," "demons." It's something we've seen too often to the point that it doesn't evoke much emotions in me.

 

[Geborgenheit]

I like the song, better than the most songs this year. Hopefully it will do well.

Re: MALTA 2018

I've known Richard for about 8 years we first met in Qawra at my nan's 70th and Christabelle for about a year or 2 met through just knowing people

You're Maltese?

 

[Juliette]

I kind of like the chorus.

 

[hijirio]

When I heard this song for the first time, after hearing the first line of the chorus I could hum the rest of it.
I made my friend hear it and he was inclined to do the same.
I guess that tells sth, this song has a very predictable melody and lyrics.
I think we definitely need songs like this at ESC semifinals, but not in the grand final.
