Babe, are you hiding? Are you alright?
You look like an angel, that fell from the sky
And boy you keep talkin', massaging my ego
With your unoriginal pickup line

Hell no, I'm not your honey
Hell no, I don't want your money
Got it wrong, I ain't into dummies
No-o-o-o

So baby, it's not a maybe
Yeah, I'm too good to be true, but there's nothing in it for you
So if I show some skin, it doesn't mean I'm giving in
Not your baby

Je me casse, je me casse
If you don't get it (Je me casse)
Je me casse, je me casse
I'm not your baby

Boy, are you pouring that drink in my hand?
Thinking if I'm drunk then, I'll give you a chance
Boy, you keep buying and complaining so stop trying
Not gonna give it up and change my plans

Hell no, I'm not your honey
Hell no, I don't want your money
Got it wrong, I ain't into dummies
No-o-o-o

So baby, it's not a maybe
Yeah, I'm too good to be true, but there's nothing in it for you
So if I show some skin, it doesn't mean I'm giving in
Not your baby

Je me casse, je me casse
If you don't get it (Je me casse)
Je me casse (Je-je-je me casse)
If you don't...

Ladies, if you feel like flaunting tonight, it’s alright, it's alright
Ladies (Ladies), listen to me!
Listen and go right ahead, show you're shining

If you don't get it, if you, if you dont' get it (Je me casse)
If you don't get it, if you, if you don't get it
Excuse my French

Baby, it's not a maybe
Yeah, I'm too good to be true, but there's nothing in it for you
So if I show some skin, it doesn't mean I'm giving in
Not your baby

Je me casse
Je-je-je me casse
I'm not your baby​

I like this way better than last year, it has more personality. The message doesn't seem to work very well with this song but overall it's fun. Also, I love to see this quirky, comedic side to Destiny whom I only associated with more serious sounding songs. She's selling the heck out of this song and I can't wait for the live performance. This isn't the best "female bop" of this year but I think that Destiny has the potential to outshine others when it comes to the live performances.

By the way, what does "Je me casse" mean? Does it mean something like "I'm out."?

"Je me casse" -> yeah, it's slightly informal for 'I am out' / 'I am leaving'.

I absolutely love your (I guess it's new? :eek: ) profile pic, btw :D

Destiny has a killer voice! And I love all the sass she is showing in the video. Love the start and the verses. But the electro-swing is a bit too dominating in the chorus. Still I rate this 8-10. With the possibility of making a smoking hot live version of this entry! And I am really looking forward to seeing this on stage.
I do expect a top 10 for Malta.

I expected something incredible when I saw Malta second in the odds, but the song was a bit disappointing taking my sudden hype into consideration. It's still good, but second place? let alone a winner? not based on the studio version for me, though it could be elevated live if Malta can get the staging right because Destiny will probably deliver vocally

8 points for now

Thank you! :) Non Mi Avette Fatto Niente is my favourite Eurovision song and both EM and FM are amazing artists even though Ermal has apparently been handling criticism in a very childish manner as of late.


I wish they went with a different message for this song. The line "Je me casse" is great but the female empowerment theme doesn't work here at all.

I don't mind this being this high in the odds AT ALL. It's cool and, without having a better word for it, hip.

At the beginning of the video, when she was touching that dude all over, I was thinking... blimey, our little girl has grown up. Not sure what to think of Destiny-on-estrogen-hormones (or is it progesterone?), anyhow... not sure whether this is what I expected. But it's catchy, it's 'female empowerment' and if she remembers to bring that dude with her on stage (no shirts plez), she has a chance.
