She sings wonderful indeed (as I expected), but song is way too ordinary (for me). It should have been more powerful with that kind of singer, I felt like she doesn't give 10% of her talent to this song. For my taste, there will be better ballads in semi2 - Slovenia, Croatia. Sorry Bosnia, Hara Mata Hari would be better choice this year.
6 points cause she's so sweet!

6 pts for vocals and piano. The song is too feminine to me. Pure female songwriting, very tender and fragile. And I agree with Interrail that it could be more powerful. Well, but this is how she wrote it.
I like how it gets more complicated in the end.

5 points for the beautiful flute part. The rest sounds a bit boring and cliché to me. And btw isn't it playback?

Those who are familiar with my taste in music know that I appreciate a well composed and sung ballad but for some reason this one just doesn't do it for me. It's too...I don't know.....soft and forgettable. It's something I would expect to hear in a restaurant as background music because it blends in and it's not too distracting but in ESC terms I would think it's a bad thing because you want to stand out. Maya has a beautiful voice though and orchestration is really neat so 5 points from me.

If you have to go to the bathroom during the (semi)final, you wouldn't have missed something essencial if you went while this song were on. It's a 17 on the dozen kind of ballad. It's pretty, but totally forgettable. 3 points.

As always, quality of B&H. But boring. For too long, the song develops, through the 30 seconds is possible to fall asleep. I have mixed feelings

Good song but it has not something so special. This year all the entries from the ex-Yugoslavia are so similar to me. The only exception is Montenegro:?!

I'm not sure what I think, but contrary to what most seem to think here, I like that she doesn't wail and over-sing, but instead sings more soft... to me that's so much better... can't really stand those annoying "big vocals".

This year's Disney ballad. :lol: I like it. It's cute and elegant, just not strong or epic.
I'm not sure what Juries will think about it. Semi-final 2 has so many ballads (Croatia, Estonia, Slovenia)... We'll see.

It is nice, definitely, but also it misses something. I can't really put my finger on it, but it lacks a climax. It is indeed "elevator music", and I am afraid it is quite forgettable. And it is also a bit of a bummer that this year several countries chose a ballad in their own language and they're all in the same semi. I think that B-H will be forgotten next to the (imo) better ballads from Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia and Estonia. And if they are drawn close to each other, they will surely all lose points to the others.

Decided to give it 8 pts after listening to studio version :D

Btw, just saw that BHT1 added mp3 of the song to official website :D

I like the song. Yes, someone can call it boring, but I found the song relaxing and calming. It's made well and Maya sings perfectly. And she looks nice ;)
This song really makes me feel positive... I hope that it will be in the final. At least this became my favourite.
