      This does have a Eurovision vibe for sure. Reminds me also a bit of that interval act they did in Sweden last time that was like a tutorial for a Eurovision song. This could actually work very well as an interval act.

    I keep coming back to this song because I absolutely love it. This for me is one of the Horne Section pieces that really stands out as a phenomenal bit of music and not just a joke or a comedy track. It's really fantastic. Similar vibes to "Seasons" which I also love. Fantastic.

    That wasn't Cantonese; that was mispronounced Mandarin (Mandarin pinyin pronounced using English rules).
    "少就是多" (shao jiu shi duo) or "少即是多" (shao ji shi duo) does mean "less is more", though.
