A decent song. Jurijus was my 2nd place (after Monika who by the way I believe had a higher chance of winning if she had kept "Criminal" not "Light On"). It's happy and uplifting and he looks nice so that is a plus, but the chorus is a little weak. 6 points for now.

I saw the title and though it was gonna be another "Nomads in the Night".... if anything, it's more contemporary but still a bit of that peculiar Broadway-like feel. Vocally pretty strong but impersonal, i don't get any real connection to him. Songs is too typical formulaic pop for me, though the climax in the end is kind of vigorous, the melody is unmemorable and i don't feel like this can become one of my favorites, sorry!

Monika Marija sounds absolutely boring how on earth was she the favourite? lmao. The actual winner is not bad at all. xthink 6 points.

Well, blow me down! Jurijus was my 3rd fave in the final and I still have misgivings about the chorus but the verses are lovely. Easy qualifier in May with a mid-table finish. 8 points.

THE GOOD:
-The song has good vocals and instrumentals.

THE BAD:
-This song doesn't really do anything for me. It's just there.

THE VERDICT:
Gee, another "Children of the Universe" clone from Lithuania. Kind of a bland one at that, as well. He's going to have to really sell the song in Tel Aviv if he wants to be in the Grand Final because right now, I'm not seeing it here. It's not a bad song, but it's not a great song, either. I'll just leave it at that. 7 points

so good to get a nice, calm, basically expected result from an NF for a change. and from lithuania of all countries! this year is upside down.

it was always between jurijus and monika and either would get 10 points in the poll from me, so that's that. yay jurijus!

I prefered Monikas songs, but if it was an another song to win, it was Jurijus. The song is a little generic pop song, but he sings it very well though and it doesn't feel awkward to me like most songs in Lithuania make me. I think this will qualify with ease (if not because of the good draw Lithuania has in the 2nd semi), but also the song is pretty decent. Overall really good choices from Europe all around tonight! :D

The televoting ranking and the jury ranking was exactly the same? What kind of black magic is that :eek:
It's probably the first time it ever happened on a NF

I have to laugh. After alll the Monika Marija drama it seems that Lithuanians just didn’t care anymore :lol:

i don't think they didn't care. it's likely that she was just never going to win regardless because jurijus was more loved from the beginning. criminal had already lost to jurijus in both the heat and the semi. she made the right choice to drop it because light on really kept it very close between the two of them.

I genuinely though Light On was a masterpiece. Would’ve easily been in my Top 3 as of right now. Very sad to see it go :’(.

The best part of this is that we'll now get to enjoy Monika Marija next year with another two songs that can only be stopped by a handsome man with an ok-ish one said about three people here.
