Saturday Flashback: Euroband – This Is My Life

“He’s like Neil Patrick Harris done in Lego.”

Tim: Last week, Hera took centre stage trying to be at Eurovision 2009; this week, she’s at Eurovision 2008, but as the centre-left backing singer. The lead male, by the way, is apparently not Neil Patrick Harris, but I’m not sure.

Tom: You’re not wrong, he’s like Neil Patrick Harris done in Lego. And yet again, I’d have placed this a good decade earlier than it actually appeared.

Tim: I think I may be on a late-’00s Eurodance high right now, because damn, will it ever make a resurgence? I do hope so, because it was a lot of fun while it lasted. The number of wonky and spinning-out camera shots in here alone sells it for me.

Tom: Full marks for him for a convincing dive out of the way of the steadicam, too.

Tim: All in all, a very fun track; came mid-table in the end, in the same year we came dead last with that god-awful Andy Abrahams track, which I’m not even going to link to because I don’t want to be responsible for you hearing it. Basically, we should be Iceland.
