Absolutely scandalous result. Unknown singer Lynn Chircop won Maltese preselection with quite an average pop tune "To dream again" narrowly defeating Lawrence Gray, who smashed televoting but was put down by international jury.

Абсолютно скандальный результат на Мальте. Никому не известная исполнительница Линн Киркоп победила в Мальтийском финале с мягко сказать весьма средней песней "Снова  мечтать", набрав большинство голосов у международного жюри. Лоуренс Грей победив с огромным отрывом в телеголосовании занял в итоге лишь второе место.

To dream again

You’re my vision of love
The very heart of life
The last word

You made me dream again
To dream again
Took me where I’d never been
You made me dream again

Don’t let me fall apart
Please don’t break my heart
I love you.

Your kisses I would miss
Your smile and your caress
I love you

Summers roll and winters too
Yet my feelings for you stay true

Now I’m helpless as you
Just drift away from me
I miss you

You made me dream again
You took me where I’d never been
You made me dream again

Don’t let me fall apart…

You made me dream again

Started singing and playing the piano at very young age. She studied classical music as a child and continued her music studies in a Music Academy in Leipzig, Germany, where she had the opportunity to interpret the role as a musician in various places in Leipzig.
Recently she launched her first two Singles 'Our Love Could Never Be' and 'Woman of our times', and her latest release is 'God Within'. She is working on different musical interpretations, which she intends to publish in the near future. Currently she is a resident pianist in various prominent hotels and restaurants in Malta and Gozo.
Also she is currently involved in the production of the TVM programme 'Klabbzone' every Friday at 18:45 which she host, along with Natal Attard and Ludwig Galea. Klabbzone is a youth oriented programme wherein Lynn makes a concerted effort to deliver meaningful messages on important issues in a relaxing and entertaining fashion.
This includes discussions on a broad spectrum of issues and areas of interest ranging from music, to fashion, adventure zones, mental health, Naturally, she, included music by performing live, however she promotes other local bands by inviting them to perform in the programme.
Another formerly latent talent in Lynn came through were she performed as an actress in the popular soap opera 'Ipokriti'. Where played the part of a Plastic Surgeon, Doctor Samantha Jones known as Doctor Sam. However if she were not so engrossed in music Lynn would probably be in a profession possibly a doctor or a lawyer and she would be just like Doctor Sam. Anyway let's get back to music and focus on Blend 7.
Led by Lynn, Blend 7 - Lynn (Vocalist), They all brought with them considerable highly valid experience from previous bands in the local live music circuit. Their music can be described as a mixture of different styles just like tasteful ingredients in a musical melting pot. This is particularly apparent in the way they deliver there original songs such as 'Differences', 'Magic Wand' and 'Searching for Life'.		 Линн начала петь и играть на пианино в очень раннем возрасте. В детстве она изучала классическую музыку, а затем продолжила свои занятия в Музыкальной академии Лейпцига, Германия, где она получила шиирокие возможности для практики.

Недавно она выпустила два первых сингла 'Our Love Could Never Be' и 'Woman of our times', ее самым недавним релизом стал 'God Within'. Сейчас она работает над различными музыкальными интерпретациями, которые она планирует выпустиить в ближайшем будущем. Также сейчас она играет на пианино в различных отелях и ресторанах в Мальте и Гозо.

Также сейчас она принимает участие в программе телеканала ТВМ "Клубная зона" каждую пятницу, которую она ведет вместе с Натал Аттард и Людвигом Галеа. Клабзон - молодежная программа рассказивающая о различных сторонах жизни -  музыке, моде, приключениях, здоровье. В программе выступают различные местные музыканты.

Другой талант проявился у Линн, когда она сыграла роль в местной мыльной опере "Ipokriti". Там она исполнила роль врача - доктора Саманты Джоунс, известной как доктор Сэм. Как говорит Линн, если бы она не стала певицей, то наверно выбрала профессию врача или юриста и она была бы похожа на доктора Сэм.

Музыкальная группа Линн - Blend 7. Все члены группы обладают определенным опытом участия в других местных группах. Их музыку можно описать, как смесь различных музыкальных стилей. Самыми популярные песни группы - 'Differences', 'Magic Wand' и 'Searching for Life'.

WHY NOT

Singer : Lawrence Gray
Composer : Ray Agius
Author : Ray Agius

Lyrics

I’ve waited for so long
This time I can’t wrong
Cause now I know my destination

I feel I’m in control
Sometimes it doesn’t show
There’s much more than imagination
It’s no use trying to pretend
So come along and take my hand

Why not, if I feel this way
So what, be it night or day
Cant hide, what I feel inside
You know I can’t survive.

Why not, say it loud and clear
I want all the world to hear
That I wish you can be mine
Till the end of time.

This can be our last chance
To save a true romance
My mind is set for your devotion.

Believe me when I say
I need you all the way
A love much deeper than the ocean
It’s no use trying to pretend
So сome along and take my hand.

Why not, if I feel this way
So what, be it night or day
Cant hide, what I feel inside
You know I can’t survive.

Why not, say it loud and clear
I want all the world to hear
That I wish you can be mine
Till the end of time.

Believe me when I say
I need you right away
I just can’t wait another day

Why not….

How I wish you can be mine. Why Not.

AND THE MUSIC

Singer : Lawrence Gray
Composer : Dominic Galea
Author : Mark Doneo

Lyrics

Time asked me where would I be
If time would steal your love
‘cause time can’t steal our destiny
so it’s the day the night will stay

And the music plays on
And your prayers are answered
All the rhythm has gone
Down the memory lane
That still has a name

And the music plays on
All your memories dance there
All the reasons are gone
If you’ll believe in the end of time

You asked me ‘what do I dream’
I told you ‘of love’
If you asked me ‘what do I need’
‘You’ from the start, ‘you’ in my heart

And the music plays on
And your prayers are answered
All the rhythm has gone
Down the memory lane
That still has a name

And the music plays on
All your memories dance there
All the reasons are gone
If you’ll believe in the end of time

You and I have laughed and cried
But the tune plays on

And the music plays on
And your prayers are answered
All the rhythm has gone
Down the memory lane
That still has a name

And the music plays on
All your memories dance there
All the reasons are gone
If you’ll believe in the end of time

ONE TOUCH

Singer : Karen Polidano
Composer : Philip Vella
Author : Joe Chircop

Lyrics

One touch, one feeling
That is shared by two
One love, one meaning
Make my dreams some true

Feel the warmth inside my heart
We can never drift apart
A dream, until the morning light
Let the winds of passion blow
Let your inner feelings show
One touch, is all I need tonight

You’re my one desire
On the way to paradise
Lost in your warm embrace

One touch, one whisper
Give me wings to fly
Your words, your laughter
Lift my spirits high

Feel the warmth inside my heart
We can never drift apart
A dream, until the morning light
Let the winds of passion blow
Let your inner feelings show
One touch, is all I need tonight

Waves of emotion
Fire burning deep inside
Lost in your warm embrace

One touch, one feeling…

Feel the warmth inside my heart
We can never drift apart
A dream, until the morning light
Let the winds of passion blow
Let your inner feelings show
One touch, is all I need tonight
