Eurovision 2012

The selection to Eurovision 2012 takes place in Lithuania right now. It is about half-way through, and so far I like these guys - 25 year old Vytautas Matuzas, 17(?) year old Evelina Vaitkutė and group Bass Arco. Apparently Vytautas started singing only a couple of years ago in a Karaoke bar. So, so far my vote would go for them ;)


Text is by V.Matuzas from this site.

Everyone can try nobody can stop me anymore
Cause I’ve changed my brain, someone did wake up my soul
Three years ago I was too shy to look at the mirror
Now it’s the present I want you bring me under tree though
Don’t know if its me or its my heart
Started singing in the bars got treated like a star
Far from that I wasn’t raised on the 8 mile
Had a loving family and a big hearted smile
But something was holding my soul back
25 had to pass till I understood that
How dumb it is for someone to love you, to help
When you don’t really do it to yourself
Brave like a rabbit, my real way of learning
Is to pretend to be someone until you’re becoming
The one. Kings are making fears disappear
No more landing gears i’m longing new frontiers

[Chorus]
Just say two words and smile
No matter what they say
I am taking back my life
Step back I’m doing it today

[Verse 2: Vytautas Matuzas]
Sometimes sweet but maybe sour
You just keep breathing every @#$%in hour
Anyway, everything is ours
It’s up to you man, its you who set the bar
The path I chose to ride might be just one in a million
A chance of a failure? I don’t bother considering it
What’s over the rainbow how could you possibly know?
Scary as hell? Yeah, but I have chosen to go

[Chorus]
Just say two words and smile
No matter what they say
I am taking back my life
Step back I’m doing it today

[Verse 3: Vytautas Matuzas]
When I look up in to dark starless sky
I cant see anything. But the smell in my mind
Reminds that the most important things in human being
Are the ones that your eyes could never see
Even though your trust’s my inspiration
It’s such a shame you was too scared to taste it
The thing I’m talking here about is called life
Next time don’t be afraid, just take the goddamn flight
Just take it back, reclaim your life
