After the tip off from someone on the list, I went to the Eurovision song
contest link provided
http://www.eurovision.tv/addons/mediaplayer/video/swe.html
Yes, the song sounds like the bastard child of Love Grows by Edison
Lighthouse and Shaun Cassidy's version of Da Doo Ron Ron, as interpreted by
the bastard children of Abba and Gary Glitter. But I sort of like it in a
perverse way, even if it's not really a great song, and the singer hasn't
got a super voice, but the hook is played with mighty confidence and the
swaggering defiance of what Roger Manning once described to me as "the super
strut" rhythm.
