Becks on Armenia

Sirusho - Qele Qele 5/5

Armenia makes use of two trends that have been successful at Eurovision lately: drums and mediterranean disco à la Helena Paparizou. Not a bad idea, especially not as you have someone as accomplished as Sirusho to deliver the whole thing.

Catchy as well as eye-catching without being particularly obvious, including a few clever twists in the arrangement to make the entire song start and stop briefly throughout makes for a few surprises to keep the interest of the viewers up.

Just too bad that Sirusho has to fight it out with Kalomira here in the semi already, but I bet there will be room for both of them in the final. Armenia is in for their best placing to date, be so sure.

In the final?
Yes, anything else would be a greater surprise than flying cows.
