Georgia 2022: Circus Mircus - Lock Me In

[Penelope]

It's...SOMETHING alright

 

[Penelope]

I actually don't hate it as it goes It's like if all those weird entries Israel used to send on their off years like Izabo and Teapacks fucked Euro Neuro and accidentally gave birth to something LISTENABLE. Actually burst out laughing during the single-note synth solo as well

(Urgently paging @ButterTart)

 

[Eyes]

It's exactly as I expected Knew we were on to something good when the artist name was announced as Circus Mircus + Georgia being one of those countries that truly does not give a single shit about little things like 'results' and 'qualification'.

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I actually REALLY like that. It certainly has a GROOVE.

It sort of puts me in mind of Sebastian Tellier's entry, but obviously in a Georgian grimey-electro-rock style.

I call it a SURPRISE QUALIFIER with an EXCITING STAGE SHOW!

 

[Penelope]

I could actually see that potentially qualifying if they give it a fun stage show!

 

[Penelope]

SNAP

 

[Madíson]

Terrible. Lock me sideways.

 

[Penelope]

I must say it really is THRILLINGLY lazy songwriting

 

[Lucille]

he’s very #funforzuklara @Alias #23

 

[Alla]

I can hear it but I can't see anything, first time I see this is it for everyone else?

 

[Alla]

he’s very #funforzuklara @Alias #23

Isn't that a certain moopster?

 

[Alla]

Oh wait, they censored the video themselves, I just saw that. Well it's Euro Neuro with a tune, not too bad.

 

[Kratz]

I’m hearing Buffalo Stance

 

[GNL]

This is good actually

 

[Alias #23]

It mainly brings to mind Franz Ferdinand for whom I always had a certain penchant. This is very obviously qualifying

 

[VoR]

This is BRILLIANT! Who knew?

 

[Penelope]

It's the first Georgian entry you wouldn't have to pay me to listen to again since MIDNIGHT GOLD (2016)

 

[Lucille]

It really does have the feel of an obscure 70s 12”.

 

[Lucille]

Al electro oddity penned by a Georgian Bear was just what the doctor ordered. IT MUST QUALIFY!!!

 

[dUb]

fab!

 

[Alias #23]

Why is this THIRTY FIFTH in the current odds?

Fuck OFF!

 

[Soldi]

I forgot it EXISTED tbh

 

[Alias #23]

I forgot it EXISTED tbh

RUDE! I’m going to tell my new boyfriend Bavonc (as pictured above) about you

 

[Soldi]

RUDE! I’m going to tell my new boyfriend Bavonc (as pictured above) about you

Oooh hopefully he’ll be very angry and will come and beat me up

 

[Alias #23]

I feel certain that once they’ve done their circus tricks including cartwheels and full frontals in the semi, it’ll instantly soar into the top 10

 

[Penelope]

Tarot says SHOCK QUALIFIER THEN 20TH

 

[Soldi]

Tarot says LAST IN THE SEMI FOR GEORGIA AS ALWAYS

 

[Alias #23]

Tarot says LAST IN THE SEMI FOR GEORGIA AS ALWAYS

Quatsch! It’s very obviously not coming LAST

*comes last*

 

[ButterTart]

I've tried to like this but it's just quite shit

 

[Alias #23]

Well REALLY!

 

[Alias #23]

Oooh hopefully he’ll be very angry and will come and beat me up

No he just burns people’s houses down and makes a quick getaway in his Lada

 

[Iguana]

Video premiering now:

 

[Iguana]

CAMP!

 

[VoR]

What nightmarish camera work

 

[GinAg (39)]

That chorus hook is irresistible. I hope it qualifies.

 

[VoR]

Turns out this is actually the Young Georgian Lolitaz from 2016. The hairy bloke is just a sort of a mascot.

 

[VoR]

Bless them, the UTTERLY DEAD audience doesn't bode terribly well!

 

[Lucille]

It’s not a very COMPELLING PROPOSITION live is it, although there was a charm to the studio version. Think it’s safe to FLUSH THIS ONE.

 

[Penelope]

Hideous camerawork on that performance! Hopefully the performance is nothing like that.

 

[Alias #23]

It’s not a very COMPELLING PROPOSITION live is it, although there was a charm to the studio version. Think it’s safe to FLUSH THIS ONE.

I’d say. It sounds DREADFUL

Also NO HAIRY SHOULDERS NO POINT
