Cascada – The World Is In My Hands

It’ll be awful, right?

Tim: This is the necessary single release that accompanies any new Greatest Hits compilation; it’ll be awful, right?

Tim: NO. It’s actually really really good, and that’s not something I thought I’d ever be able to write about a new Cascada track. Recently, the output’s sounded like the energy’s drained somewhat from the first couple of albums, and she’s really just jumping on whatever everyone else is doing.

Tom: Particularly after Eurovision, where her song sounded like it was the previous year’s winner changed just enough to avoid lawsuits.

Tim: But this – this is back on top. It’s no Eurovision clone, it’s not a track with an idiotic title (why would you want a crowd to evacuate?). Instead, it’s original, it’s her own sound, and best of all it sounds like proper effort was put into it. I’m very, very happy with this.

Tom: I wonder how it would have done at Eurovision?

Tim: Probably quite a bit better. Eh, well. Too late for them now.
