"Fool Moon (backing vocalists) is also the winner of several international contests of the said music genre: the International Ward Swingle A Capella Contest in Graz in 2005 as well as the Sixth Taiwan A Capella Contest in 2006 just to name a few."

The Spin

Csézy was born in November, 1979 in a small town far from the capital, called Mezokövesd. Her childhood was a little bit different from the one of average children, since Csézy's parents considered it extremely important to provide high-level musical education to their daughter from a very young age. This lead to her comprehensive musical qualification, which covers various fields, she is not only a singer of great talent and much creativity, but also plays on the piano.

Csézy graduated from the Béla Bartók Music Department of the University of Miskolc. Afterfinishing school, she toured with intensity in the company of her former classmates, and they did not have to wait too long for their first success. In Spain, the group won the first prize at an international contest where they were singing local folk and polyphonic songs. If we are talking about folk music, mention must be made that Csézy was born in a family which is proud to preserve Hungarian folk traditions, namely she is the last descendant of the worldwide famous Matyó dynasty.

In 2007, Csézy's childhood dream came true when her debut album hit the shelves of Hungarian music stores. There was no doubt about her classical background, but in order to gain a wider audience, she wanted to show her talent in the field of pop music as well. The first single from the album became a huge success in Hungary, since local radio stations picked up the moving ballad immediately. The spectacular, visually fantastic video prepared for the song also remained in high rotation of Hungarian music TV channels for weeks.

Candlelight,the song that Csézy will perform in English at the Semi-Final of the Eurovision Song Contest in Belgrade, is another beautiful, heartbreaking ballad. The composer is Viktor Rakonczai, its lyrics were written by Imre Mozsik. Viktor Rakonczai's name might be familiar to those who have been following the history of Eurovision Song Contest, as he was one of the singers of the boygroup named VIP which, representing Hungary, had attended the Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin in 1997. At that time they finished the contest in an outstanding 12th position. Now Viktor is eager to return to stage of Eurovision as a musician, since he will accompany Csézy on the piano at the event.

It is also worth saying a few words about the superb background vocalists. The four guys are members of the a cappella vocal band called Fool Moon. The band was formed in 2001 by five young men, each with a solid background in classical and light music. Fool Moon is also the winner of several international contests of the said music genre: the International Ward Swingle A Capella Contest in Graz in 2005 as well as the Sixth Taiwan A Capella Contest in 2006 just to name a few.

So now, the future for Csézy looks brighter than ever, and she is ready to conquer Europe by singing the fantastic song, Candlelight.

The Past
  
After a brief dalliance with Eurovision in the 1990's, 2005 hailed a welcome return for Hungary. Ginger-curled Charlie put a lot of people off wanting them back after 1998, but time is a great healer, and with many cheap airlines flying into Budapest for fun, we cheered on Hungary and still have change for a plate of perch in a paprika stew. Sadly this delicacy was stolen away from us, as Hungary decided not to partake in 2006. The teases, but after Magdi in 2007 everyone had a warm fuzzy feeling for the Magyars.

The Song

Sleek and well produced. Unfortunately adjectives just applying to the promo not the song, which is amateur and soporific. We can hear a passable and diverting attempt at English even during additional danger of shattering mirrors and backless dress. She's got a new shiny car too and she's not afraid to show it. The song seems to my un-Magyar ears, an upbeat version of Magdi's song, which shows little development, but why change an excellent formula.

Szivveres

Égszínkék
Szemeid színét
Mint szép emlék
Úgy orzöm még

Egy lány így él
Ugyanúgy mint én
Csak vár, csak hív
És bármit kibír

Gyere lépj elo a semmibol
Úgysem érhet baj
Mert a tiszta érzést védi majd
Egy láthatatlan pajzs

Hosszú éjszakán
Lépteidre várok még
Halvány gyertyaláng
Forró könnyét szórja

Szívverés
Ébreszti a csendet fel
Cinkos fénysugár
Iderajzol mellém már

Orangyal
Ide lép halkan
És súg egy szót
Egy vígasztalót

Az élet néha elszakít
De túl eros a vágy
Édes gondolattal játszom el
Mintha mindig itt volnál

Hosszú éjszakán
Lépteidre várok még
Halvány gyertyaláng
Forró könnyét szórja

Szívverés
Ébreszti a csendet fel
Cinkos fénysugár
Iderajzol mellém már

Mond miért van így
Nézd mit muvel a vágy
Az életem Vele úgy megosztanám

Hát Istenem
Most légy velem
Küld el hozzám Ot
Nem számít mennyi még
Olyan jó Rá várni

Hosszú éjszakán
Lépteidre várok még
Halvány gyertyaláng
Forró könnyét szórja

Szívverés
Ébreszti a csendet fel
Cinkos fénysugár
Iderajzol mellém már

Candlelight

Weeks go by,
Summer scents expire
Autumn leaves,
Memories, an untold desire

It burns in me,
Waiting patiently
Never sleeps or tires,
But grows by the hour

Come and wake me from this lonely place
All I want is you
If you take me to the stars and back
I will know my dream is true

I will fly tonight,
Forever keep you in my heart
Make it feel so right
When you love me by sweet

Candlelight,
Hold me till the morning shine
All my fears subside
When I look into your eyes

Rays of gold
As my fate unfolds
Unspent, never told,
A secret to hold

Take me from this abandoned place
To wake among the stars
Put an end to bitter lonely days
I need you as you are

I will fly tonight,
Forever keep you in my heart
Make it feel so right
When you love me by sweet

Candlelight,
Hold me till the morning shine
All my fears subside
When I look into your eyes

So step inside and place your hand into mine
What you are is a blessing to my life
I sacrificed so much time waiting for my fate
No matter where you are, I can't help waiting

I will fly tonight,
Forever keep you in my heart
Make it feel so right
When you love me by sweet

Candlelight,
Hold me till the morning shine
All my fears subside
When I look into your eyes
