Michela has just turned eighteen and, as a present, her broadcaster are sending her off to Tel Aviv for a Eurovision Party! The song called ‘Chameleon’ has a pleasantness about it and, in this contest, that means it’s not too bad. It has a whiff of Swede – like most modern music these days – and it sounds like something Ariana Grande or someone of that ilk would put on an album.
Problem is, though, it’s not big *enough* and it seems that Michela’s voice isn’t strong enough to belt the living hell out of this song, because that’s what it’s going to need in the Semi Final of doom to get out of it.
It has a driving beat though, which will mean it could have a life outside the contest as a floorfiller, but I fear for its chances of getting out of the Semi.
That said, it could mobilise enough “banger lovers” to get it in 9th or 10th… but not holding much hope.
Phil’s score – 4 points
