Hersi told me not to tell anyone, soz y'all have to wait on 20th :D

Showoff. :lol:

Anyway, if they have decided on the English version, of course I'll still be a little bit disappointed about no Albanian in the contest, but I feel sorry for Hersi now. She wanted to perform it in English for her own reasons related to the lyrics, it's her song, and I think the debate has gone too far if she is intimidated by it. I hope all translations are as tasteful as they can be, and I'm excited to hear the revamp, since Albania usually delivers shiny, dramatic finished products.

I don't feel sorry xshrug

I don't like selling-out and the delusion of the "universal English" and not giving the fans what they ask for...

I know she's young, but atleast her team should know better.

If you know but can't tell, then why even mention it? It'll just piss people off.

Is there a problem mentioning it? I'm happy with the result. I just thought you would all know that Hersi has made her decision and that the official video has been done. I don't know how that can piss people off.

I bet he is under 15 years old.
All kids like to do such games.

Under 15 years old and writes for wiwibloggs.com? Yeah right I'm 15 years old xlol

You're torturing A-Lister. I can't bare to see him in so much painxcry1

LOL oh RainyWoods. That person needs to grow up that it's the artist's decision not fans.

Have you actually had a listen to the revamp yet? I'm dying to hear itxheat

I'll be happy with either language as long as Hersi is happy herself. The thing i'm actually more concerned about is the intro staying intact.

I haven't heard the revamp yet, but both Hersi and the composer are very happy with it, which is the main thing. I'm not sure if the intro has been removed.. ok I'll tell y'all she's singing in Swahili. xlol

Don't tell me to grow up for having my own opinion thank you very much?

This is not the "sucking up to *put in artist name* forum", this is a Eurovision fan forum where we can have whatever opinions on the entries and artists as we want (regardless of what the artists want - they should think about what the fans want instead!). We're not here as spokespersons for the artists (like some of us seem to be)... we're in a discussing forum representing our own opinions.

Anyways, that answer sorta confirmed it's English...

You keep complaining that the song should be in the native language.. on and on and it's very annoying. You've said it once, you don't need to say it 1 million times. For me personally some entries have been better in English and some sound better in Albanian. It's All About You was great in English. Tomorrow I go was horrible in English and amazing in Albanian.

And it's my right to complain as much as I want thank you very much...

Its a typical Albanian entry. I like that style, but I won't bet on it, that Albania reaches the final. Let's see. I for myself like the song.

I noticed on Hersi's Facebook that she just performed on a chat show in Albania. I hope somebody puts it on Youtube, we could hear something new sooner than expected!
