Forever - Alekseev Belarus Selection method: National final Has it been heard live? Yes Semi final # 1 Drawn: 8th

The Belorussian film this year is very empty. Like he is the last person on earth empty and he has lost his marbles and can hear imaginary voices. The film features Alekseev singing the song on a sound stage and then he is playing records, kicking a ball, dancing, and drinking coffee. There are also dramatic flourishes of bleeding ink and the lyrics written in odd places like the margins of the newspaper, on his hand, and on a matchbox. It all comes across as if the whole thing is in his mind and that the devotion is to an imagined person or to himself because there is no one else there.

The song is okay. it’s not unpleasant or painful to listen to. It has an interesting rhythm, but clearly the lyrics are clumsy and like whoever wrote them was rhyming couplets. As the song goes, it continues very much in the same vain all the way through. It will need something serious on stage to qualify.
