Vienna 2015, 60th ESC 40 For 40: Nadav Guedj "Golden Boy"


The 40 for 40 for Vienna 2015 continues. Up next is a review of Nadav Guedj (pictured) with "Golden Boy" (Israel).

"Golden Boy" is not a song about the boxer and promoter Oscar de la Hoya, who won Olympic gold in 1992. This is a song about something else. However, with its beats and flow, and it's mainstream vibe, I'm thinking: what the fuck is this? Just another pretty boy for Europeans to vote for...oh wait, they will be smart by not voting for him for a reason! On the other hand, Israel has sent good, reasonable songs over the years, but this is one of their worst. He will perform in the second semifinal on May 21, but will have one of the lowest point totals in semifinal history. Maybe two points? We'll see.
