The song goes from this ballad as we hear at the beginning of the song.
The opening line, shadows in the moonlight, dancing with the sun, planets are aligning to love as one.
Yeah, I know that we're not considering the visual aspects of the song, but you're kind of on the money, Charlie, because the music video is her playing the piano in the middle of a desert.
So I think that's kind of the vibe that she's going for.
So the song starts in this ballad space, and then as we move into the chorus and get to the end of it, we move into this folk-pop, almost stomp-clap beat.
There's this massive chorus and stacks and stacks of vocals.
If you take away the banjos from Mumford & Sons, maybe you'd get something close to this song.
You know, very, like, One Republic adjacent.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I hear you.
I felt that way until I got two minutes into this song.
Every Eurovision song is three minutes max.
So in the back third of this track, she switches it up a little bit and gives it that real element that kind of puts it over the edge for me.
Nate, you kind of have to turn your brain off with these lyrics.
Like Eurovision, you need to kind of shut off the part of your brain that understands logic.
So we have vocals, we have interesting composition with that key change, even though I wish it was more of the song, but nonetheless.
And the je ne sais quoi of this track, Eclipse, it grew on me a little bit.
When I listened to it the first time, I kind of threw my head in my hands.
It was like, oh my God, not this.
