Chanel #1 on top!!!☝️☝️
I love Chanel from Scream Queens
So I just watched the Maria MV by Hwasa from Mamamoo and I’m not normally into girl groups but Mamamoo is fire. Might have to switch it up and stan cause they are freaking awesome. I also saw the video of two of them rapping on Idol Radio and I was rolling while watching it. All signs point to yes with them.
I was bored and this Yeri pictures were too cute. She is so lovely, maybe I will do more red velvet moodboards because their comeback is finally near. Hope you will like it, have fun !!

Stereotypical New Yorker Peter Parker has my entire heart ESPECIALLY if Tony is clueless
The two are strolling the city for a day and Peter’s chatting happily away before suddenly SLAMMING INTO TONY to push him out of the road, flipping off a rouge taxi, full “I’M WALKIN’ HERE” and everything. Meanwhile, Tony’s just losing it like “WHEN TF DID YOU GET AN ACCENT??”

UMK 2018
CHOOSING SAARA AALTO in the fall 2017
For Eurovision 2018 Finland did things differently than expected. Instead of having the competition UMK (Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu) of 10 artists and their songs YLE, the local proadcaster chose one artist to represent the country in Lisbon in May. She would produce the songs where the ultimate track to Lisbon would be chosen by audience and jury votes in March 2018. And she was no one else but Saara Aalto, known to Eurovision audience already from UMK 2011 and 2016 (coming second). She also took part in X-Factor UK in 2016 coming second but this time making record deals with Sony Music and Warner. Therefore she has become quite a popular character in UK as in Finland gaining somewhat existing fan base in Europe but especially among Eurovision fans.
The Eurovision dream of hers has never been a secret. Her attempts during previous years however haven’t been good enough in my opinion. She knows how to sing, perform and write songs but there has always been something missing. X-Factor gave her the much needed push and tools to create Finland’s Eurovision entry 2018. There has been a lot of criticism about choosing her without the public vote but to be honest this kind of buzz that is happening around her won’t wait. Finland has rarely these kind of artists as willing and skillful to perform at ESC so I’m definitely standing behind this.
I will not review the videos cause in they don’t play much role in the final show of UMK or at Eurovision shows.
MONSTERS Feb 9th 2018
The song offers a big start for Saara’s Eurovision 2018 journey. I was super afraid that the songs for Lisbon wouldn’t be good enough because earlier when Saara performed in UMK the songs weren’t good! But clearly this isn’t the case here! Monsters is an upbeat track with a catchy sound. Uplifting theme about leaving your demons behind you. Suits Saara and her story in life as in Eurovision. Her voice is soaring. This is such a motivating track and works outside of contest! Some say Sweden is all over this and but I’d say it’s high quality and attention to detail more like. No more that feeling that something is missing like in previous Saara’s attempt. I was impressed by the song when I first heard it but the more I listen to it the more it grows on me. This is gonna be big.

The ballad. To be honest I was expecting bigger power ballad and this kind falls into the mid tempo range. But it has a nice sound. This can be memorable. Strong chorus and beat. Her voice is slightly over produced I think but still good singing here also. I like especially the bridge here by the way. First impressions were not as good as with Monsters but this song has grown for me and I’m really thinking this might work better when performed live!

Another uptempo track but with a theatrical twist. Knew to expect this. Goes with the same theme as Monsters but does not have the same catchy sound as the two previous songs did. It has some memorable notes and lines but it doesn’t reach same level as Monsters so therefore is the weakest link out of these three. Again I have to save some space for the live performance which in Eurovision can change things dramatically.
Nevertheless which of these songs will be selected I feel super positive about this! It will be the best pop we’ve have ever sent to Eurovision. I’m feeling also confident about Saara’s performance. She knows how to pull a ESC performance whether I’ll like it - that’s just the question of taste.
The final track to Lisbon will be selected by jury and audience votes on March 3rd!
