Gonna try and appeal to the mopey 20-something hipsters who are all who vote in this

I'm pretty sure we're not the majority here.


Entering Portuguese music this round.

Burkina Faso (Paus) - This is pretty great. Like, actually good? I wish I could understand it though, it would heavily increase my enjoyment. (B+)

Glad you like it! They're pretty good, especially live. Here's my translation of the lyrics:

Madeira

(You) touch me and (it) burns
Incinerate the [stubborness]
that loving has form
that love has norm

(You) say my name
(I) lose my pronoun
I'm free and everything flows
I'm more than I have been

(You) accept me and (I) sprout
(I) boil, emerge volcano
surrounded by sea, love without condition ["mar" = sea; "amar" = to love]
Of nothing devotee
I'm island, raw nation
Surrounded by sea, love without condition

Didn't really like this contest overall. I wasn't expecting to place Amy Winehouse in my top three when I first saw she was in, but I did. Talking Heads was a nice surprise. I liked the drum jazz. Secret Smile would have ranked higher.

Nice, got green.

Congrats Tammy!
