I gave this 5 points. I honestly have no ide what to write about this song. It's a dull balland mixed up with rockish segments. For me it doesn't go together.

Holy hell. The atmosphere it creates, the long notes she does at the end, when the instruments fully kick in xheat I love this. Especially considering I didn't expect this from them, this feels like a truly special entry and I don't know why I feel this way. It also just has so much heart, power, it goes all out... It might not bring anything new and it's fairly cheesy, but it creates a strong feeling in me and warms me and to me that's what matters the most.

She's got a great voice, imo she's the best of this act! The song itself is just ok, a bit dated even, but there's nothing wrong with it at all, it's just there for me xshrug I'm quite surprised they chose this one

I gave it 4 points in the poll. I think it will struggle to qualify... anyways, good luck Romania! ;)

Does anyone know here, why is it, that the band's name in eurovision.tv is displayed as "Human Touch" and not "The Humans"? Will they change their name for Lisbon? Maybe they thought, that "The Humans will represent Romania..." sentences are just way too funny. Who the hell represented them before, if not humans? haha BTW, it is such a great song, reminds me of Nova Prospect from our A Dal heats, but with better vocals. For Hungary "Goodbye, summer", for Romania it is simply "Goodbye" :D

You took the words out of my mouth. I feel the same way. The song rather reminds me of the Hard Rock Songs of the 80's like Heart or Lita Ford. But hey, I still like this song a lot. A mixture of power and emotion. I hope they will do fine in May.

Hmmm, the Romanians are very proud of their Entry, but the International Fans dislike it and want Romania to have their first NQ. So I suggest something should happen.

The international fans dislike it? Where are you getting that from? I'm not saying it's universally praised, but the reaction from a lot of circles has been very good. I also think it has tremendous appeal outside of the fan bubble.

In all german Forums, here and in ESCForum the Majority want it to be eliminated. In youtube-Toplistes its nearly always Bottom-Third. Betting Odds have it around 32nd.

306/49 Likes, which is very good. I feared it might have a ratio around 60% because of some Butthurtness.

In some youtube tops I've seen the song in top 10.
And please ignore Nicky. He changes his mind every day and he's still (understandable) hurt that Feli didn't win.

Last year, Romania gave us the amazing Yodel It!, so my expectations were high for this year as well. Unfortunately, this year's song is pretty ordinary, though. It is nice enough and has a certain retro vibe that I like but it's not a song that I have to put in my top 10 because it is so great. It's no Yodel It!
I give it 7 points.

I'm finally getting this song xheat I still don't love but surely don't dislike it anymore. Her voice is great and I find this quite emotional

7 points in the poll now ;)
