Hi guys, and welcome back to my channel! If you’re new here, my name’s Rachel and I’m a huge Eurovision fan as well as a musician.
In today’s video, I reacted to Israel’s entry for Eurovision 2023, ‘Unicorn’ by Noa Kirel.
So instrumentally, this one has been produced really well. I especially like the sound design of the synths in the second verse, and vocally it’s strong. The use of strings in a sampled way is also a nice touch and makes the song more unique and well thought out.
However, the notes used in the chorus are very restrictive and lacked exploration.. It feels like it could have been more decorated, used more variation and sequencing to make it more interesting. The piano was quite monotonous as well, using a basic two note ostinato pattern to add an additional layer that wasn’t needed.
The ending of the song was a nice surprise though, the change up of the rhythms and signature was a great way to give the song a new lease of life.
Initial Score: 7/10

Pretty sure the whole centaur thing is intentional, getting people to comment on the "error" driving up eNgAgEmEnT on social media (I mean I'm doing it right now). Just like the "You want to see me dance?" bit has been put in so people will spread the song on TikTok. I'm not a huge fan of the song, though, so maybe I'm just being cynical 🙃

What I really need is someone to do a compilation of people's reactions to the Noa centaur reveal that happens before the dance break. 😂 7/10 seems fair. This is one of my favs, the vocals are great in the video but I'm not sure they are going to hold up quite that well live, especially since the performance will prob be very physical. Was rummaging for vids of Noa singing live and she seems to mime in a lot of them, though there are a few acoustic sets. Hard to tell how this one will go at the contest, but am definitely hype to find out! 🦄🤙

Quite agree with your analysis. It's well produced. It shows experts hands had the task of refining the song to its current state. But it's painfully visible that the base song is way too basic and uninteresting. The lyrics don't help with that, either. There's a lack of dynamic in her voice that also keeps the song in a constant, unmoving state the whole way through. It's fair. 6/10

@americaneurofans
@americaneurofans Год назад
Most frustrating song of the year by far. It's very nearly good, but not quite. Like you, I also feel as though this track is let down by a *very* basic chorus, especially in the first instance. The first thirty seconds are so intriguing, and then it's like, "Oh. Never mind." It picks back up in the next verse, and the dance breakdown and transition into it is quite good as well (though the synth horns really owe *a lot* to "Kill this Love", and maybe Kpop in general), but it's not a song that's greater than the sum of its parts. Unsurprisingly, it isn't really clicking with Eurovision superfans right now (in the couple of fan votes I've seen, it hasn't even qualified from the first semifinal), but I do suspect people will be more accepting of it once they see it performed, because Noa will undoubtedly sell what's here. As a composition, though, it's not an amazing effort. "Feker Libi" (I believe you mentioned this one), which had some similar ideas, was much better.

Your observation is perfectly correct, academically. Yet, the context is contemporary ESC which dictates--unfortunately--who, why and what wins. True, in its old format the ESC was quite classical as top renowned performers from Central and Western Europe (only) would not sing songs but rather 'chantent des chansons'; I don't recall any of them break dancing. Unicorn is sign of the times, i.e., dance music, simple, catchy and not necessarily intelligent--some would even ask whether it goes down well with drugs. Anyways, when I wish to immerse myself in rich melodies, I head to Vienna which is close by. As for the Centaur... ha ha. I've heard people your age calling that Sagittarius , Pegasus, Minotaur and even Mentor (now the latter blew me off). Seems like the video producers played around with the idea of integrating a human half into a Unicorn which definitely defies the mythological concept. If you'd look close enough, the Unicorn piece is badly cut/edited and lacks more frames; in fact, it's quite forced into an otherwise great video. I'll give the song a 9/10 for it was fun.

I really don't like this song. It feels very much like it was written specifically for Eurovision. Especially the "wanna see me dance" part which makes it feel like it is a performance you're supposed to see rather than a song you listen to. Also the "unicorn vibes" song from Estonia did the same thing she does at the end with chanting 'u-ni-corn' and that song came out many months ago. I prefer the Estonian song tbh because it actually feels more genuine than this, which comes off as contrived to me.

I am definitely a Noa Kirel fan, so I am heavily biased. I believe this is maybe an eight out of ten more than a seven, at least relatively to other Eurovision songs this year.

Yeah this one is a no from me. You summed up my thoughts pretty much with how it's doing a lot, but none of the things are that great. Sounds like a bunch of songs have been stitched together. It's clearly been written for Eurovision, and it feels like it's trying too hard to be this fierce girlpop and it feels quite see-through and hollow. The whole song sounds a few years out of date to me, especially the chorus, and the whole Unicorn makes me cringe. This song was written by the same guy that wrote Feker Libi! I think Feker Libi did it better though, I like the flip at the end there but here it just feels jarring.

This was definitely inspired by K-pop acts which are specifically designed to catch people’s attention.

The song is messy constantly building up to nothing and dance breakdown at the edn is wierd and lackluster. It sounds generic and the unicorn chorus is sooo cheesy and not enjoyable to listen to that part. Also there is 0 message to the song its overdone women power is bad way

Unicorn or not, how come nothing was said about the brilliant lyrics? You don't really think that the song is about unicorns, right? That's too shallow.

Dalia, I never said the song was about Unicorns though. Usually I don't take lyrics into account much in my reviews because I focus on the musical elements. Afterwards, I study the lyrics in my own time.

You are like a little child who doesn't like something he doesn't understand, there is a lot of meaning to the words and the principle of Unicorn but you couldn't understand that's why the song sounds simple.

For me this song is too "already heard". It sounds like an Ariadna Grande song. But it is ok.

This is what Michael Ben David WANTED to be last year except a lot more polished and interesting (sorry for the frankness). It's a bit quirky and sometimes unpredictable (ending was really quite out there) and yet it's quite typical of a lot of former girly pop entries by Israel in recent years. Not a winner, and not what I tend to listen to, but I think it's pretty good objectively and should get a good final position, methinks.

The thing is - is it STILL a centaur if it has a horn on its head? I'm just glad it's not "Unicorns I love them, unicorns I love them..."

She is the winner 🥇 The song talks about her, how can you not understand it? She is the unicorn, that's why they made her a figure of half human half horse and she is the unicorn! Unicorn is a special animal and not like all animals, she is not like everyone else and that is also what she says in the song with her Hebrew name, I am not like everyone else, not like the whole world.. excellent song👌🦄🏆 the best this year ❤

The song is very basic and stops halfway through, giving way to a dance break that continues to the end. Not a lot of song here for a song contest.

This song is not one of my favorites and I just can't get over the lyrics. What I hear is basically a political statement from Israel (there are references to " being out here all alone", "history repeating itself"...). Of course, I could be wrong but it sounds so obvious to me.

O.K., here goes: I am going to write my reaction before listening to Rachel's - I really dislike this song and this vocal performance, I give this a 2. jmho, it's irritating and she's dull. btw: why oh why can't Israel find a great song for Eli Huli to sing at ESC? He is a potential superstar and his getting the exposure of ESC would be phenomenal. The song they saddled him with for which he almost made it last year just wasn't strong enough for him - still it was so much better than that dance thing they chose instead of his song.
