The first chosen song we heard for Malmö is Mon Amour by Slimane.
France surprised us by releasing the song on November 8, just a day after the announcement.

Mon Amour is written by Slimane Nebchi himself with Yaacov Salah and Meïr Salah.
The version on the official Malmö has some minor mastering changes to the original version. Mainly the orchestra is lower in the second half and the voice and piano are more upfront. Any thoughts?
(See comments, thanks Sander)

ReplyDeleteThank you Tom
DeleteOn the (digital) official eurovision cd, the song has some minor changes in the arrangment.
ReplyDeleteSander, would you mind pointing out the differences? Maybe I'm missing something really obvious but to me it sounds exactly like the single version that was released first.
