After a long, almost neverending, national final procedure, Ukraine has chosen Gaïtana as their representative for Baku with her self-penned song "Be My Guest".
Gaïtana - Be My Guest (Ukraine 2012)
At least it won the big national final, but in Ukraine that sort of thing means nothing. The last two years both saw great flaws in the selection formats, resulting in huge scandals. Let's see if the result remains unquestioned this time around.
Gaïtana herself is a clever choice, she is a star with a big voice (slightly reminiscent of my favourite Jamala from last year's final) and her song contains a fair share of musical handles.
The gimmick with the dancing trumpetists is clever as it gives the song a distinctive sound as well as a very visual hook. And we can safely depend on Ukraine to polish this performance even further.
The song is also a dance track with certain potential in its own right, and somehow it makes my mind drift towards another successful chart record. Not bad at all.
