We are not one to be drooling all over Eurovision contestants. In fact, we follow the annual show only because of its campiness and the fact that has geopolitical implications. But, this time around there’s one track that caught our ear and its not Loreen’s winning song “Euphoria.” It’s Ukraine’s contest Gaitana with her robust dance number “Be My Guest.” That track didn’t get winning numbers in votes but it won our hearts. It’s bold with deep vocals reminiscent of the early house offerings of Martha Wash. The lyrics are very pride-oriented, which is perfect for the season. It’s just a good and very uplifting dance track. We look forward to hearing more for Gaitana.
