Clip is terrible. Visuals do not converge with the song:? I was waiting for something to summer, beach, sea, sun, disco
That's what I expected too... This music video is like for an alternative rock song, not a dance pop summer song!

Boring and predictable :twisted:
Cuddoes for the video, very surprising, 12 poins from me))

I'm guessing the idea was that Snow White is waiting for 'La La Love' to awaken her, but I'm not sure it was done particularly well! I like the video, and I like the song, but they don't reaaally work together. That, and there is absolutely no chemistry between Ivi and her prince

Actually the prince is barely there at all during the video.
I am a bit disappointed in the video, it doesn't fit the song at all and the visuals seem off. The same director also did Kostas Martaki's video for "Entasi". It also has a futuristic surreal vibe, but the visuals in Martaki's video come off much better in my opinion. Maybe the darkness of the clip is throwing me off?
In my opinion they should have done a fun summer-like video showcasing Cyprus's beauty. Something bright and fun, maybe even use Ivi's hometown. Isn't she from a resort town?

Same problem as France. An upbeat summery song with a dark and cold video. At least Anggun looked hot in hers.

The concept of the music video is that she is waiting for his la la love to come, and he comes in the end! That's what I understood!
Although a music video in Ayia Napa beach (in Ivi's hometown) would be preferred by me, it would be so predictable and boring I think. It would seem like a tourist commercial, like our 80s and 90s preview videos!

Exactly, therefore i love that dark version of La La Love, the song itself is too cheerful for a hard rock fan as myself hehe, i'm giving them credit for the originality.
And i honestly don't find any dissonance between a video and a song, it all looks and sounds perfect.

CypriotGirl Well the main thing all the same song. A video show for the completeness of sensations. Here is a complete mismatch. I hope its number in the ending (and I'm sure it will be in the finals) will not like the clip. It is better to let it be predictable and cool than the unpredictable and crazy.
I personally don't care for music videos so it doesn't bother me that the music & video are totally unrelated.
Cyprus is very catchy and may be my guilty pleasure of 2012

Cyprus song was posted to Estonian site with the new official video.
Not yet any comments (and in Estonia it's mostly a great thing)

I really like the official video. I'm hoping she'll have a great stage performance, this has definitely evolved into one of my favourites this year.
