About ByeAlex
ByeAlex is a relative newcomer in Hungary and by all accounts was not even expecting to qualify from the rounds of his national final. However, journalist Alex Márta fought through and won the televote in fine style to secure his place in Malmö.
Song Review: Kedvesem
This understated foot tapper has become one of my favourites in this year's competition. The general consensus is that because the song is sung in Hungarian, very few will be able to relate to it. This should not define whether a track is good or bad. My thoughts are that it's a simple, somewhat childlike melody that is as catchy as all get out.
The problem is that if I like a Eurovision song, then generally the rest of Europe doesn't. I know it won't win, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will qualify. Looking at its semi-final, it may just squeak through.
Hungary perform in twelfth place (out of seventeen) in the second semi-final on May 16.
