  1. When this started I thought “this’ll be great”, as the music really got me listening…

    The vocals however don’t live up to the same standard – the song is good enough but I feel that with a different singer, it could have been brilliant.

    It’s a bit album track soft-rock for me, could have been Bon Jovi/Def Leppard levels with a more powerful voice on lead.

    Will still do well but for this type of act this year, the Dutch are better!
