Sigh. And so we have another case of Përrallë becoming Fairytale...
Has there been a single Albanian revamp that has resulted in a better song?
More than a decade ago, perhaps.
This is... kind of sad, though. Once again, we have Albania trying to give its entry a broader appeal by sanding away every edge that made it unique, without adding anything new to replace it. The ethnic touches, the orchestra, the power... it's just gone. And for what? Certainly not more modern production, since it still sounds as dated as before, just in a less interesting way. And wow, that is one
incredibly low-energy rap verse now. Ugh. The only positive they
haven't neutered is the melody in the chorus. Who at RTSH keeps insisting that "make your song as bland as possible" is the ideal strategy for a revamp?
Zemren n'dore had fallen out of my top 10, yes, but I still enjoyed it. This is just turning a

into... barely a

, if that. No, scratch that; a

. And for what? I don't think this revamp is suddenly going to turn this into a huge favourite for other people...
Albania, please either get better at revamping your songs, or stop revamping them at all. You do this almost every year.
