It's a fun song that touches a lot of bases. I don't think it's particularly strong and I have doubts about Eden being able to carry such a song in Rotterdam. Most important thing is that the melodies are there and it's not a hard song to sing, so the general impression will always be positive. I give it a 7. I think this song is right in the middle of the pack basically. I don't see this as a jury magnet at all, but televoters will generally like this kind of stuff. I think she has decent chances of qualifying for the final.

The right choice was made! Feker Libi is just so joyous and charming, and Eden seems the most comfortable with it.
Roots was great too and I loved the colourful staging, but that chorus could get jarring and would be too divisive.
Rakata just didn't work live as it came across too juvenile.
Saviour In The Sand was nice but was always the 4th choice here.

It fits as a soundtrack for a Disney's remake of the Tarzan animated movieEhm...may I ask what you mean with that comment?

Just woke up and watched the entries (just as the results started to come in) - this really was a damn good NF! Based on the live versions I got fully behind Roots (which might actually have been my first 12 and new #1 had it won... which unfortunately wasn't to be. Kind of sad to keep missing out on my potential 12s in every NF).
But Feker Libi was quite good too; I think I'll give a low 8 for now. Not what I would've picked, but this should do quite well in May, I reckon!

It's funny that both songs with "Rakata" in it are pretty much sabotaged by the staging. But at least Eden tried her best in every possible way to sell the song.
I know alot of "Rakata" fans are disappointed and started saying Israel will not go through to the finals with "Feker Libi".
Please biatch, even if "Savior In The Sound" is the winning song, she would have qualified with ease.
That's how strong the 4 songs are in this years Israeli's NF song selection.
I am very PLEASED!

You can't deny it's really OUT OF THE BOX song, with a big mix of culture and music, also langauges. I'm proud!

So overrated. I don’t like it at all.
Not as overrated as your Swedish entries. People giving this below a 5 needs to get their ears checked.

You're on a Eurovision forum. This song is exactly the common denominator of the taste of most of the people here. This isn't perceived as fanwank like Serbia is, but it has the same function nonetheless. These entries are always going to be vastly overrated over here. It doesn't matter.So overrated. I don’t like it at all.
