Eh. I understand why people like it, but it hits on so many of my pet peeves (super smooth vocals, that distorted vocal production thing at the start that a lot of people are doing now that I just loathe) that I can't say I'm among them. 6 points.

Actually, screw that anti-existentialist version of objectivity in which I have to like it because other people say it's good. 3 points.

Are we really so intolerant of your opinion? I dont mind if you dislike song. Go ahead, be my guest hahahahaha

Your post made me smile now xrofl

Good entry. But there are a lot of the same kind this year. Good, but not outstanding, well done but not great... I wish Bulgaria good luck!
A lot better then Na Inat in any case.

All the waiting was worthy. I'm, however, worried about the live performance because this song, with so many voices, so many backing vocalist needed, it's quite fragile to sing live. Let's wait, but this is definitely a qualifier unless it's a disaster. 8 points.

I don't think Poli can carry a song with such contemporary production. Just like Ira I think this will strike back at her. This is really disappointing especially after Na Inat which was one of my favourites of 2011. 3 points.

This lives up to the hype. Bulgaria should be proud of this entry.

Generic, synth pop trash. This is the stuff I'd hear on the radio all the time. NOT what I was looking for from Poli. The first 10 seconds are a total wtf moment. I hope this grows me on me, but I can only give 2 points at the moment. Such wasted talent.

THE GOOD:

-This song will lift your spirits up, so that's always a good thing.
-It has enough Balkan rhythms to distinguish itself.
-The lyrics are feelgood, too.

THE BAD:

-Her vocals, while pretty good, can get a little twee for my taste. This is minor, though.

THE VERDICT:

This is a really good song, and this is a really good feelgood song, too. I do see this song in the Final for those reasons and more. It's a Balkan-lite pop song in the vein of KT Tunstall. Where it lands after it gets to the Final is up to the audience, as always. 10 points

Did i insult you that you had to answer in such a rude manner?
Especially for you i wrote the time where melodical similarities start, in very small parts, not whole songs.
