I've heard it like 4 times already, and i still don't know what to think of it. This is not a good sign, but i'm giving this one a good chance to be a grower later in May. Hopefully

This is actually my jam. I give it 12 points, because I am a sucker for a good pop song and this one is very modern and big. BUT I have to say that the first verse is somewhat lackluster lyric wise. The second one is much better. I like it. Good job!

Issue though: Dont know if its easy accessible. I was really pumped about the chorus and the structure of the song, but they've put a lot into 3 minutes here.

Better than expected...this could do very well with good staging and vocals.

The production is so DNA from Australia. Expensive drumbeats trying to make it epic. But way too repetitive. So maybe juries will like it.

If it were 2010, this would be in the top 10. But it’s not, so I don’t really know what to think about this song. It’s just good enough in every way possible, but people don’t remember that at ESC. I’d say 6 points for now but seeing how 2019 is shaping up so far, that may well be enough to put Greece in my current top 10-15.

This is an epic song. I feel really good for what our broadcaster has chosen. Katerina is a woman with a lot of talent and her voice sounds amazing. I hope we organise our staging better this year so that we don't flop again. But I'm really optimistic :)

I could definitely grow to love this much more the more i listen to it. I had my mind set too much to a distinctive sound based on Katerine's previous work i think.

This is giving me the same exact vibes Bella Santiago gave me the more i listened to Army of Love.

It's a song that juries will like it for sure...But it's not a memorable song for the televoting....
It will probably qualify but in the right side in the Final

I think this will definitely depend on the performance and staging

Tumblr, mostly.
Mulled over it, relistened a few times. I really like it, but I'm not in love with it. Seven points for now, maybe upgrading to an eight as it grows on me.

First impression after hearing the song for the first time:

W- O -W! Does Greece have enough money to host next year?

I've given it a respectable 5 points. The song is well produced and I feel it's going to be a solid entry for Greece that will net them a decent to very good result. The song is simply not my thing though. It's the kind of stuff that goes in one ear and straight out the other. I find it exceedingly bland. When very mid sounding songs try to do the whole anthemic thing, it's very much a turn-off that leaves me cold. This kind of thing was always going to face an uphill struggle with me anyway. I'm not it's audience. No loss. I'm sure plenty of people are going to love it.

I think we all know that Soldi is winning this year, it's Rome 2020

Hmmmm...okay [MENTION=8763]Gera11[/MENTION], well this time you are not right, but [MENTION=9441]RainyWoods[/MENTION]..I don't ADORE it on the first listen..but I like it, quite a lot..
I like vocals here...the problem is that I cant think of that good staging in TA for this entry..
Video is good, and it kinda lifts the entry, but it has to deliver live..
I'd prefer if it was different color in the video though..

I will give 8 in the poll..
