Aqua Perform On 'The X Factor' (Denmark)
Oh boy! One thing is hearing the catchiness of its euro-pop sound in its studio version, and one very different is watching Aqua performing their new single "How R U Doing?" on a stage! Lene (aged 37) has got such a mature look now - reminds a lot to the chick in 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' - to be singing such bubbly-poppy tunes and Rene...no words. But! They'll always be Aqua. Euro/dance-pop is in their veins. The performance on the Danish version of 'The X Factor' was okay. They clearly sang over a pre-recorded track so no real effort on their part. Congrats are in order though! 'How R U Doing?' has quickly cracked the Top 5 on the Danish iTunes. Yey! So happy the song is doing good. It's so catchy! BTW, after the 'How R U Doing?' performance, Aqua delivered a cool rendition of their 2009 hit single 'Back To The 80's', from their Greatest Hits compilation. I also like this more subdued pop style.
