I think it's a good song, but i feel like i've listened to stuff like this so many times in the past. I think it lacks an identity.

like if you are a godforsaken heathen who wasn't moved by feli's female-empowering revolution that's fine but WHY would someone vote for this house of mirrors version of demi lovato's skyscraper when jukebox and bella were right there with a much superior yell-based song? ROMANIA YOU FUCKED UP. semi 2 is way too strong for them to drop the ball like this. they better hope against hope that juries are nice enough to them.

This Eurovision feels like travelling back 20 years in time, when every country except Ireland and UK gave a sh*t

Worst Romanian entry ever.

Some of the hits this NF had and this ended up winning. xcrazy What a disappointing choice really. It's not awful but it's not particularly interesting either... It's just there and about as generic as a song can get. I guess they're lucky to have Moldovas 24 points in the bag already...

5pts for now

I'm sort of disappointed cause i had some faves here who would ccore much better for me..but seriously it is not bad at all...it's decent and well perfromed..I have to check the final performance cause I missed it, i only watched semifinal performance which was strong vocally and official video (studio version)..

It's much better than Romania 2017 for example, and better than Moldova in 2017 and 2018!

8 in the poll!

Dora Gaitanovic please come back next year and win it! She was 5th with televoting, not bad at all. :)

2011 was a horrible trash heap of a year though lol basically 5 songs deserved to advance in that semi (and then europe somehow managed to kill poli anyway? yuck. at least now we know it was because destiny had Greater Plans for her)

Watch the winning reprise performance if you can. It's amazing. She gets really emotional.

This is the song basically I wished Kaliopi would have returned with. If she could very almost make the final with "Dona", then why can't Romania make the final with "Goodbye"?

It was impossible to find something acceptable in this NF. Feli at least was different. Sorry Romania, but I think this is the first year you stay in the semifinal. 0 points.

THE GOOD:
-It's got good vocals and instrumentals.

THE BAD:
-They're lacking a bit of spark when they perform (I've only seen the music video for this song).
-It's a bit repetitive.

THE VERDICT:
It's just your typical power ballad. Nothing special to see here from Romania. With so many good songs from other countries, this one feels a bit lacking. This song is good, but it could've been better, and that is what disappoints me about it. 7 points

Some people from the Romanian ESC Facebook group voted for this so that Alexia & Matei would not win. Smh
