      Always cool songs. I think its because they are not trying to be hip. Just like this song lyrics go: "You started acting way too too hip". Its a great way to stand out and be original.

    I wake up, and I think I could use another drink
    I'm reaching for a smoke to forget about last night, last night
    I get up 'cause I need a shot of instant remedy
    I put a record on, it makes me think about last night, last night
    It all ended in the weirdest trip
    He started actin' way too hip
    That's why I ignored you for a long, long time
    But then you had the best opening line
    (You're in the wrong place)
    You're lying next to me, I don't know where to hide
    I see his smiley face that makes me wanna cry
    What was I thinking? 'Cause all we did was fight
    Don't you еver dare to wear my Johnny Cash t-shirt
    You wake up, and you think you won't need another drink
    You don't want me to smoke, though I didn't stop last night, last night
    You get up 'cause you need an organic cup of tea
    You put a record on, it makes you think about last night, last night
    You confuse me with your blurry eyes
    Thought you were a different kind of guy
    That's why, I took you to my messy place
    But it felt as if we were in a different space
    (You're in the wrong place)
    You're lying next to me, I don't know where to hide
    I see his smiley face that makes me wanna cry
    What was I thinking? 'Cause all we did was fight
    Don't you ever dare to wear my Johnny Cash t-shirt
    You're in the wrong place
    You're in the wrong place
    You're in the wrong place
    You're in the wrong place
    You're in the wrong place
    Don't you ever dare to wear my Johnny Cash t-shirt

    Belgium is a country of elegance and good taste with modest artists like Hooverphonic. Remember 'Mad about you'? Not the spectacle some are referring too but definitely one of the best songs of the first semi finals. A real song and a high quality performance, and that is what Eurovision should be about.

      Totally agree, this song is my favourite from 1st semi final indeed. Performance, voice, music and whole structure of this song and vibe is just so stylish and tasty. I feel so sorry for this band because so many eurovision viewers think they didn't deserve to qualify for final, because they didn't have sparkles glitter and loud chorus with shooting fire. It's a song/music contest not glitter contest, but if someone wants all sparkles and colours maybe they should go to see circus. Also people who complain about performance, because other countries did this or that etc.... not every performance need constant action and change on stage, it depends from song, and in my opinion this song was performed perfect. Loud song requires louder performance, and this song needed this subtle performance in my opinion. It's sad that such bands are so underrated in eurovision because it makes me think what people are watching this contest, they don't understand much of true art, and that what stops most really great bands and singers even participate in this contest. I believe that most of true artist/musician wouldn't even consider eurovision, because of the audience watching it and expecting all this circus flying around them when it's totally not with artists style of performance. Music is diverse and different music for different people. People shouldn't slag Belgium for qualifying

I've never heard of this band but I will check out some of their music after hearing this and I'll be sure to give them a vote in the final. I'm not so sure how good they will do but you don't always need crazy staging and whatever else, Duncan Laurence's Arcade is proof that a great song is enough.

So everybody can say what they want this happens every year at the esc a song eliminated through an unlucky order of the live performances in my opinion if you won't believe you can look back at older esc's you will see it....
