Not a bad song. In fact, it's quite beautiful. I can see it growing on me too.

But it's so 'uneventful'. They'll need to figure out something to make it stand out, otherwise it really will not prompt many viewers to vote. I think singing it in English would be a good step one so that at least audience can make some kind of connection with it.

Oh, now I totally figured out where they got the idea (moving piano) for the video from!! :

lovely orchestration xheart
It's growing on me but it didn't make much of an impact to me when I first heard it. Good luck!

This is the only true italian song competing in this contest, since italian entry is really a swedish song, while B-H's has an italian composer. Too bad that now we lack something to represent B-H's music, though.

Well the singer and song writer are both Bosnian- plus the flute music in the middle is Balkan style- so I woulnt say a Bosnian song is lacking

Must admit I'm disappointed. Lyrics are nice and her voice is great, but this is very weak. I expected strong ballad. Maybe it grows on me :confused:
My angel, I agree with you! :mrgreen: I think it starts of nice and then you think it would build up, but strangely it just goes down. It's not bad, far from it, but too pale and has absolutely no impact. It doesn't go right in your face. I want Bosnia to do well, but I think this is the weakest ex-yu song this year. Dunno why. That doesn't mean it won't qualify.

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".

It's not about big vocals. Finland has a great song and is very quiet with no mindblowing arrangement but to me it's a lot more effective than Bosnia this year. This is too draggy for me.

My feelings exactly. Maya Sar delivers a nice ballad, but it doesn't stand out in any way.

This song just needs a better arrangement. Maja is a very interesting and talented performer!

Oh I see, I thought it was the vocals that was refereed to.
