Wooo me likey!

I should point out that the video in the first post is not his entry. Only just realised it's 3 minutes exactly!

Obviously. It would be breaking the 1st September rule.

National final is on 16th December.

Crap. They're early this year! :o

Aren't they just! More on this guy here ;)

The songs are:

 

- Be Heroes

- Reste Toi

- Love Kills

 

Their selection is on radio, not TV.

They have choose Love Kills

 

I like it and hope the vocals will improve. But it's a tiny ass space so at least the poor vocals are understandable so far.

Much better than the reaction on Twitter lead me to believe.

And the Netherlands take ANOTHER STEP towards the final.

LITERALLY just realised you were back :o

 

Anyway I think this is a great song, he just needs to a) sing, b) pronounce English.

Is that some kind of breakdown I hear? I was expecting some ballad, this is quite a pleasant surprise.

 

But I assume the quality of The Voice Belgium can't have been great

Vive la belgique!

The new revamped version of 'Love Kills' premiered on a Belgian radio station this evening. It is much better than the original live version, but it is still one of my least favourites of the contest. However, at least the quality of the contest is increased once again!

 

A medium quality radio rip of the new version of 'Love Kills' can be heard below, I'll change it for a HQ version when one becomes available.

 

 

EDIT: This is beginning to grow on me a bit more now, it could climb a few places on my rankings after all - not too many though! :kink:

And here is the official video for 'Love Kills':

 

 

Decent video, and the revamped version is definitely a big improvement!

I'm actually liking this alot now :o It have really grown on me... :)

 

and he is very cute in this video :lol:

Love Kills

This is a grower and i think many were surprised it qualified, its sales in europe are starting to indicate it wont be the dead duck in the final that many think it will be.
