There has been an exciting announcement in Belgium this afternoon as Walloon broadcaster RTBF announced their Eurovision act for 2017. The lucky artist is 16-year-old Ellie Delvaux, who will perform under her new alias Blanche. The song she will perform in Kyiv in next May’s Eurovision Song Contest is yet to be announced.

Song being revealed at 10:30 UK time tomorrow. Now I don't want to alarm you but the song is (apparently) NOT A BALLAD!

This is the same part of Belgium that gave us Rhythm Inside so I wonder if it might end up being a Lorde adjacent type number again?

This is called 'City Lights' (I love that title, simple but paints a vivid picture) and there is a teaser here: http://www.rtbf.be/auvio/detail_blanche-ci...rait?id=2192344

... but it is geo-blocked! smile.gif

I WANT MORE! The clip is so promising it could be heading straight into my top 3 if the rest stays on that level, quite Lorde, quite Lana, very Blanche!

Okay I've heard it, SENSATIONAL!

Her vocals stay at the same tone throughout the song but the song is so intricately produced, it is just fantastically done and still builds to a climax. So much effort has gone into this, it's possibly one of the most alternative things Eurovision will have had in recent years so it is hard to predict how it will do but if there's any justice Belgium will be having 3 top 10s in a row.

There's a bit of pitch editing at the end.
