Upgraded my 8 to 12. I've had a long up and down journey with this song but my love for it is going to stick now. I'm besotted with Ktheju tokës and haven't been able to get it out of my head for weeks. It has been haunting me. I think this is probably my favourite Albanian entry since Suus. The vocal melody in the chorus is supreme. There's something so spectral about the way Jonida sings it. Her voice is the focal point but everything around it is complimentary and intricate, yet so hypnotic. I really was a stubborn old oak with this entry, but I'm just glad I'm finally appreciating its beauty to the full. Took me too long to start my worship of Albania this year. Outstanding entry.

Albanian is such an interesting language, it doesn't fit into any category for me. I am glad they decided to keep the song in Albanian.

When more than half of the acts will flop during rehearsals, Albania will sneak through top 10 in the betting odds.
Just don't mess up the dress and hair. The one in FiK was outrageous.

She kinda missed some notes in London. I think the song matches her skills which can lead either to feeling that she gives it all, or that it's not enough when she fails to hit the right notes.

Jonida has confirmed on Instagram that her backing vocalists will include Tiri Gjoci (FiK 2017 + 2016) and Artemisa Mithi (iconic queen)

Well, she slayed again xheart.
Anyway, I didn't like when she asked the public to sing with her. Don't think it's the appropriate kind of song to do that. But this is just a preparty!

OMG! She slayed!!!!! Flawless vocal performance! - Seriously, I loved the song at first sight and it has been part of my Top 3 for months now but I still have the feeling it's even growing on me every time I listen to it. It's simply a pure masterpiece.
I will be devastated if it doesn't reach the final ;:(
