Tim: This got sent in to us recently by our reader Christian, and came out last March. Niila (surname Arajuuri) is from Finland, but as yet has had most success in Germany – so much so, in fact, that German Wikipedia is the only one he’s featured on, which I think speaks for itself.
Tom: Really not sure about that Comic-Relief-without-the-charity video, but as for the music: not entirely certain about what appears to be a kazoo hidden in the mix during that hook, but even so.
Tim: Doesn’t waste any time brining us that hook, a sensible move because it’s a good one to get listeners going – it is, in fact, by some distance the highlight of the song, particularly when they bring out the brass to accompany it.
Tom: It really is: it’s easily the strongest part of the track, and deploying it at the start is a good decision.
Tim: As for the rest of it: well, the verses aren’t that memorable, and it take until the final repeats until that really becomes notable. Which, now I think about it, coincides with the time it’s sung on top of that hook. Hmm. May need to try a bit harder in future with the vocal lines then, but it’s certainly a good hook.
