Neither the song nor the guy is 100% my cup of tea, tbh, even though, I know that both parts are pefect on paper.
This entry just lacks some oomph and originality, I think... whilst I love the beat of the verses, I really think that the chorus could have been more convincing. The track could have been better as well, I miss a chorus to sing along to and some ethno vibes... My Azerbaijani friend told me that he's so proud of him making use of the mugham singing style but seriously, I can't hear it. It's a well-produced but boring entry.

Trivia: It's the first Azerbaijani entry (apart from 2008) which isn't part of my Top 10.
Azerbaijani entries ended up being part of my Top 10 from 2009 to 2018, respectively.
