She doesn't need to playback, marc x.
Take a look @youtube for her performances @Stars of Europe and the TMF-Awards.

She has very good songs on the new album: "I surrender", "Tonight we ride", "Ella elle l'a"...

@Mark X
You're totally right. I think Belgium should give her one more chance.

It looks like Belgium should sent her once more..... everybody seems to love her now. Sent her again , let her playback her own song, put two great Swedish backings and at last another win for Belgium. I mean Madonna does it all the time. Pretending to sing....

"Nikolas P" is that you Vincent?

Good luck to Kate. "Ella elle l'a" is still in the Swedish charts but this week number 52.

Her best song is "no digas que no" in my opinion :D Theres just something about it which makes it so awesome! :) OK, Kate may lack stage charisma but her recorded songs are immense!

Vote Kate!
