I think this selection is fantastic but my big favorite is Nova Deca, if Serbia chooses that it will be in my top 10 for sure

Re: SERBIA 2018
It's quite solid selection surprisingly, to be honest...
I gave the highest marks to several entries based on studio versions, and I didn't expect it...
This is how i rank them:
1. Rambo Amadeus & Beti Djordjevic 10/10- really smth fresh and bold choice that would be IMO...I'm always for bold choice...lyrics are great too..I will definitelly vote them..
2. Ivan Kurtic 9/10 - really great orchestration, and again very bold choice, it's a Gypsy song, vocals are very intersting and he can sing live very good
3. Sanja Ilic & Balkanika 9/10 it has great potential, it has very good ethnic female vocals, and strong male pop vocal, combination and arrangement is good, they need to stage it right.
4. Saska Jankovic 9/10 - very interesting ballad and she was always strong vocally
5. Lana i Also 8.5/10 - its so retro, groovy at moments...I like it a lot.
6. Igor Lazarevic 8/10 This is simple yet effective and pleasent, i was positively surprised with it..
7. Biber & Dj Niko - 7/10 it's interesting concept, i know the singer and she is very good ethnic sound singer (traditional sogs), but a bit amateurish..i'm curious for live performance..
8. Rejbass 6.5/10 I really don't know who this is, but it;s very different, let's say..I have to see live perfromance to conclude my mark for this..
9. Maja Nikolic 6/10 it's to messy, some elements are OK though...she looks so trashy and funny in that picture, I couldn't stop laughing..
10. Dusan Svilar 6/10 it's nostalgic and features some nice music, but it lacks a lot of it, and his vocals are flat..
11. Lord 6/10 hmmmmm exactly that middle of the road..
12. Koktel Balkan 5/10 the same as for above, strange lyrics..
13. Sevdah bejbi 5/10 again, goes nowhere, but not that bad..
14. Daniejl Pavlovic 4/10 too cliche, not so appropriate type of voice for that song..I gave 4 for composition, it's decent at least..
15. Boris Rezak 3/10 I didn't expect this from him, it reminds me of Slovenian songs, maybe can grow bit on me after the live performance..
16. Srdjan Marjanovic 2/10 - not for me
17. Osmi vazduh i drugari 1.5/10 no comment :/

I thought Rambo Amadeus' song would be just as insightful and intelligent as Euro Neuro, it's quite a let down. Maja Nikolic is very good, as are Osmi Vazduh i Drugari and Ivan Kurtic. I'm a big fan of Sanja Ilic tho!

Re: SERBIA 2018
It's so refreshing with a selection that is not a total sell-out, while ESC is turning into a blandfest Anglovision with dated safe Pop (mostly ballads and midtempo) songs in English, it's nice to see a national selection with songs only in native language and lots of local influences. This is what ESC should be all about.

Wow, Maja actually delivered! Definitely my favourite from the selection.
But I doubt she has any chances, since people consider her crazy?

Re: SERBIA 2018
I think you have a lot of meh songs in your line up but there were many I also enjoyed very much. "Svatovi" "Nova deca" "Pod krošnjom bagrema" "Zemlja čuda" I think are my top 4 from what I listened to and each would make a great entry. After the displeasure of my own NF, Serbia has reignited my excitement for ESC this year.

I think your obligation now is to check our entries and judge them here!
