Bah, seems I'm in the minority here. It just seems to have lost the charm and that has been replaced by loads of pointless beats to try and make it more powerful. I really wish acts would stick with the version they won the NF with unless there is a legit reason not to.

Nooo they took out the bit about Johnny Logan still being "kinda famous" and she stopped referring to him as "Jagger, Mick" :(

Even worse than that, I no longer find it terrible.

And why do people say she's ugly?? xshrug

Yes, she did funny faces during her live performance, but she's probably one of the better looking ladies of this year's ESC.

I totally agree!

Especially in this pink dress

-I don't know what it is they added between 0:57 and 1:00. Space/carnaval/kindergarten sounds. It sounds childish (und superfluous).

-I don't like the additions from 1:40 (guitar-esque sounds)

-The vocal modulation from 2:47 is a great idea however.

I agree that it has lost abit of it's charm. Part of it's appeal before was it's simplicity. It's still the wonderfully catchy little song it's always been though and this new updated version will help it do alot better in May I think. It's nice to have a Latvian entry I don't despise with a burning passion for a change :lol: This was my 2nd favourite for a long while until the sudden explosion of amazing songs. Sits comfortably still in my top 10 though.

This Latvian song is utterly woeful. The lyrics are an embarrassment... worse than it's entry last year, and that was terrible.

I think it sounds less cheap now, but still on the verge of unacceptable. Hopefully PeR and Trianas Parks will enter the selection again next year with better songs...

I don't hate this new version as much but it still makes me cringe a little. Nowhere near as embarassing as it was before though so good job Latvia :D

A lot less embarassing and I must the say new arrangement is really, really good. So this is a major improvement. It's still a bit silly but considering the worst parts of the song have been eliminated this may soon become a "like" entry of mine.

Lmao even the clip is Hilarious!

With have truely some masterpieces who will join annual tv show about eurovision in the worst category!

I admit her singing and the tunes improved but she seemed determined to ruin the few things she has with that song with a stupid stage show!
