Hi guys, and welcome back to my channel! If you’re new here, my names Rachel and I’m a huge Eurovision fan. In today’s video, I reacted to for the first time to Norway’s entry for this years upcoming contest. MGP took place and the public spoke, and chose SUBWOLFER with ‘GIVE THAT WOLF A BANANA’. The title immediately intrigued me.

This song is crazy. It’s about a Wolf named Keith whose got great teeth. Keith must have been born in 1959. The banana references give Gwen Stefanie a run for her money. It’s a club song, with a funny concept and lots of fancy dress. And for some strange reason, I like it…

There’s something about the way it’s been staged, performed and generally put together that
Signals to me, that these two fellas are taking Eurovision a lot more seriously than we think. It’s well choreographed, it got interesting and memorable customers, and a wacky theme running through the lyrics. It’s not shocking like Latvia, but actually quite endearing.

Musically it’s not the usual stuff I’d gravitate towards, but it’s at least got substance and something unique. And it’s very catchy. I gripped the melody and chorus lyrics very quickly, and that is HUGELY advantageous when it comes to Eurovision and grabbing your audiences attention for three minutes.

It’s not the most exploratory in terms of chords, harmony or lyricism, BUT it has a good melody which in some places is actually quite cleverly written.

So overall, I quite enjoyed it and will be waiting in anticipation to see how this does in May.

Initial Score: 8/10
