Eurovision 2013: Norway: I Feed You My Love

Former Idol participant and music director Margaret Berger will sing the 2013 Eurovision entry for Norway: I Feed You My Love.

It's been only four years since Alexander Rybak hammered the competition and walked away with the Eurovision trophy. Aside from my own country's entry, this is the one that I would most like to see win. Why? Because it is the most relevant song in the Contest. It is the type of music that many kids are listening to and the kind that can be heard in clubs up and down the country.

Some might say that this is true of Germany's Cascada, and why on Earth would you bet against Denmark's entry? Germany will score well, but we all know it is almost a ripoff of last year's winner. Denmark is memorable, but it's not really a song of 2013.

I Feed You My Love refreshes the parts that neither of those can do. It is electro-pop at its best and Margaret Berger's vocals soar over the epic backing music. The whole feel of the song and lyrics are darker than best film noir and the singer's stunning looks and beauty queen figure would not look out of place in a Hollywood movie.

All in all, this track has everything going for it: powerful and atmospheric with great commercial appeal.

Norway perform in lucky thirteenth place in the second semi-final on May 16.

Is this song as good for you as it is for me?

  1. It will sail into the Final, the only question being will it be first (Azerbaijan may vie for that honour) - Margaret would have to have a total disaster NOT to qualify from SF2...

    It deserves its position as one of the favourites for the win and I think a top 5 is almost a given - it might come down to where she is drawn to sing and the other performances on the night...
