I‘m a big The Roop fan, together with KEiiNO and Maneskin they are among the greatest Eurovision treasures of the past five years for me. And I must say that I also like their new song a lot! It’s totally different though, more mature and no real fun song (though it’s called Simple Joy haha). I appreciate it very much for what it is and the message of the song is great.

I think it actually could be top 15 at Eurovision again but I guess I’d also go with Luktelk this year. I love Luktelk and it would be something new, not The Roop again.

I agree with you completely.

Monika Marija

The weird changed title aside, Monika Marija's song is really pretty albeit understated in the studio cut. :)

Instrumentation is absolutely gorgeous. She said she recorded the whole thing while in Nashville and you can definitely hear that. Can't wait to see the live performance on Saturday because every one of her songs is 10x better when done live.

With all that said I agree with comments that the acoustic piano stripped back version (a la Petunija) is far more powerful and if she makes the final I would be switching to that in Klaipėda. Will it win? I don't know but it will go close I believe.

Agree 100% with you. I love The Roop, but I think Luktelk would be a much better choice this year.

Loved both The Roop’s previous efforts but I’m struggling with Simple Joy as it’s just a little too cheesy and naff for my liking.

Monika Marija's staging looked incredible. It looks Eurovision ready and then some. She should soar through to the final tonight. xheart
