"Lucky" is a song by Swedish pop duo, Lucky Twice. The song was first released in Spain where it reached number one on the singles chart. It also managed to crack the top twenty in Finland and cracked the top 50 in Austria. The song contains a catchy dance tune to it with the catchy lyrics, "I'm so lucky, lucky, I'm so lovely, lovely"
Background and song details
"Lucky" was offered to Lucky Twice a week after they were signed. However, the pop duo rejected the song calling it "Babyish" and insisted they wrote their own song. Europa Records rejected the song they had written and said that "Lucky" was suitable for their debut but they refused. Two months later, Lucky Twice chose "Hip Non Stop" as their debut but Europa refused and threatened to drop them if they didn't pick "Lucky". Lucky Twice finally gave in and made "Lucky" their debut.
Euro-Pop revival
"Lucky" has been considered a Euro-pop comeback. Music website PopStar wrote that Lucky was a "Breakthrough of hope to Euro-pop singers wanting to make it big in the UK" Lucky Twice also appeared on the cover of Norweigan magazine Strumm with the title "The New Pop Princesses".
Critical reception
"Lucky" received mixed reviews from around Europe. Finnish magazine MusicMatters said the song was "..irresistable", music website Panella said, "A fun, party anthem that everyone will love". However, "Lucky" received numerous negative reviews. Austrian newspaper Benhellt quoted, "Has the world gone mad? This must be song in the world, this was absolutely the worst choice Europa Records have ever done", German music website HallowPop quoted, "I bet in two years, the producers will say "what the hell have we done?" honestly this song is a bomb". Even their hometown Sweden has been harsh to the pop duo, Swedish celebrity magazine StarrHulst quoted, "This song has given the country a bad name" and Swedish music website Sikko quoted, "This song is scum, it is just awful. This song should have been for the Teletubbies or something, not a song".
