WklVids: Lara Fabian, Gianna Nannini, Isac Elliot, Man Meadow

This week we start with Eurovision 1988 entrant Lara Fabian and her latest release Deux ils, deux elles , her contribution to the wordlwide equal marriage debate and a very beautiful song indeed. Gianna Nannini has also a great track out, Indimenticabile .  La Nannini also created a debate in her native Italy when she became mother at the tender age of 56 a couple of years ago. She's ready to hit the road again with another tour and new album! She also wrote Marco Mengoni's other Sanremo track, Bellissimo . Move over Justin Bieber, here comes 13-year-old Finnish Isac Elliot from Espoo with his New way home , already noted by Billboard as one of the ten names to keep eye on... Last but not least a bit older track. Swedish Man Meadow has also been to the States to film their video for How does it feel . Good stuff.

MAN MEADOW BACK IN EUROVISION CIRCUIT

The Swedish guys of Man Meadow tried their luck twice in Poland with Viva la musica in 2008 and with Love is gonna get you in 2009 and then came back to the wonderful world of Eurovision from the backdoor by making of cover of a Danish national final song of 2012, Overflow . And now they have entered the Swiss selection with  How does it feel that comes with a video full of New York. Will they be third time, second country lucky? Well, they have some life outside Eurovision as well, like this pretty decent cover of Eaten alive , originally by Diana Ross ft Michael Jackson. 

Summer songs: Man Meadow - Overflow

The Swedish Man Meadow guys have covered Overflow , a song by Ditte Marie in MGP Danmark 2012. Which one do you prefer? Man Meadow themselves tried their luck twice in Poland, with Viva la musica and Love is gonna get you . They also covered Diana Ross's Eaten alive ....

Man Meadow gets eaten alive

Man Meadow, the Swedish duo that has graced the Polish Eurovision stage twice, in 2008 with Viva la musica and the year after with Love is gonna get you has managed to record a cover of Diana Ross's 1985 album's title track Eaten alive written and produced by Michael Jackson. Jackson also sings Diana's backing vocals. But here's Man Meadow Eaten alive . Not bad even if totally missing the urgency of Diana's and Michael's vocals.

Songs that slipped away 7: Love is gonna get you

Swedish boys of Man Meadow came third in Poland last year with Viva la musica so they tried again this year. It didn't go quite like planned with this very Modern Talking-esque Love is gonna get you : 6th place. It's still a nice track on record. Live and on stage it just doesn't work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgHLpL0Orrk , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwwy4mj5V-g

El Retorno: Diven - Forever with you

Today's tip for the Spanish El Retorno is fan favourite Diven with Forever with you . Nice pop song that could be following Man Meadow's footsteps but ... is there something missing after all? Their MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/divengranada
