What do I think of this?

The dear little madam Christine Brandy opens her ballard, plaintively informing us all "it's the question that drives us". Well, you sure haven't got the answer with this twee horror. Like Annie on mogadon, "Firefly" (no, I can't work out why it's called that either) is going to bomb big style, especially without Greece to give it points in the semi final.
Of course, there's something deeply worrying about throwing a teenager into the metaphorical back of the europop mogul's transit van, and although it worked for Cyprus in 2004, it won't in 2009. So, it's an awful piece of basic claptrap and needs to be shunned. Metaxa is a potent brandy based drink, ironically just the type of thing to help you through 3 minutes of this.

Cyprus' entrant this year is Christina Metaxa who performs a song written by her older brother. She's one of the youngest performers this year but will do everything possible to show the world 'teenagers have the strength to set targets and follow their inner light'.
The 17-year-old student will sing "Firefly" written and composed by Christina's older brother Nikolas Metaxas. The inspiration behind the song was Christina herself.
Nikolas says: "Christina is shy and sensitive and she often needs an extra push to take risks in her life and pursue her dreams, as all teenagers do. Firefly tries to tackle the insecurities and doubts that people often have and give them a motive to take a 'leap of faith'."
In March 2009, Christina had a leading role in a Cypriot production of Mamma Mia. As well as singing, Christina is a talented artist and paints to relax. She also dances and is a member of Diastasis young dancers group, one of the most famous cultural groups in the island of Cyprus. Christina also writes poetry and children stories and is ready to publish her first book with three stories for children as well as her first poetic collection. She also composed two songs for which she also wrote the lyrics.
Christina was deeply touched and honored by her brother's decision to write a song for her. Firefly talks about the importance of having faith in our dreams, the importance of finding the light we have inside of us and of having the strength to take the necessary risks to reach our dreams even if we have to look a bit different than the crowds.

Firefly

It's the question that drives us
Where we must go
It's the unknown that derives from us
What we want most
But the firefly sits in the corner and rests

And it won't care of you stare
But believe me, it's best to let go
Don't just go with the flow

And the firefly comes to you
Sits on your finger
It shudders and shakes
But she wants you to go with her now
Follow her out there

The firefly, spreading her wings open wide
Thinks the sky will come crashing down, fall to her side
She's afraid, but her fear slowly fades

So fly with the firefly
Fly side by side
Escaping the chains that held you from life
Don't look down
You're over the edge

Jump, take the leap of faith
Jump, take the leap of faith

It's the question that drives us
To where we must go
It's the unknown that derives from us
What we want most
But the firefly sits in the corner and rests

(It's the question that drives us)
(To where we must go)
(It's the unknown that derives from us)
(What we want most) Don't just go with the flow
(But the firefly sits in the corner and rests)

It's the question that drives us
To where we must go
It's the unknown that derives from us
What we want most
But the firefly sits in the corner and rests

(It's the question that drives us)
(To where we must go)
(It's the unknown that derives from us)
(What we want most) Don't just go with the flow
(But the firefly sits in the corner and rests)
