I’m feeling some discomfort in my hands, but I’m committed to getting this post started. I’ll be typing on my phone, so please bear with me if there are any spelling mistakes or grammar issues I might overlook. As I hinted in previous posts, I’m not a fan of the Eurovision, but I enjoy my sister’s commentary on everything. By the way, I’m worried about offending some British people since I’m mentioning a BBC article.
As you can see from the title, Mariana Conte’s Kant was the winning song. The controversy started when the BBC pointed out that the word ‘kant’ in English isn’t a nice word, but we aren’t talking about a song with British origins. ‘Kant’ in Maltese means singing, so I don’t get the censorship provided by Eurovision. As far as I know, the song was submitted as is, which I believe is correct. I mean, if we had to change all the literature that was poorly translated, we would have to change half the literature written.
Kant Lyrics:
I’ve got a secret you should know
Come a little close, I’ll whisper slow
I’ve got a secret you should know
(Shhh shhh shhh shhh)
People say don’t be so loud
Watch the words coming out your mouth
Hands crossed don’t dare stand out
(Follow the crowd – follow the crowd)
Pull up pull up make all em bow down
Shut up shut up I’ma be real loud
Get up get up I don’t back down
(Follow me now – follow me now)
Pre-Chorus
Only lovers no enemies
Feel it round me queen energy
In my power a higher me
Here’s the secret the remedy
Chorus
Why should we let other people decide
When we could be having the time of our lives
Let down your walls, come and dance to my vibe
I do it all the time – yeah I do it all the time
Serving KANT
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving KANT
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving KANT
They say no, do the opposite
That’s it
Give up, give up, this girl don’t quit
Follow me now
Pre-Chorus
Only lovers no enemies
Feel it round me queen energy
Here’s our secret remedy
Chorus
Why should we let other people decide
When we could be having the time of our lives
Let down your walls, come and dance to my vibe
I do it all the time – yeah I do it all the time – yeah I do it all the time
Serving Kant
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving Kant
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving Kant
I’ve got a secret you should know
Do-re-mi-fa-so
I’ve got a secret you should know
Do-re-mi-fa-so
Why should we let other people decide
When we could be having the time of our lives
Let down your walls, come and dance to my vibe
I do it all the time – yeah I do it all the time
Serving Kant
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving Kant
La-la-la-la-la
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving Kant
The Life of Music:
The life of music
Is something that a human lives
In different colours
Every time we put an earbud in our ear
Depending on the mood
We want to hear
In happiness and sadness
Like a holding hand
Freeing you from the world
Even if for a few beats
Great song. I don’t understand the whole Kant thing at all. But she’s doing her thing and sounds great.
