Lithuania LITHUANIA 2024 - Silvester Belt - Luktelk

The "Luktelk" part is repeated too many times, and doesn't really do that much to me. The verse has some emotion to it, but i'd like more expression. It's quite similar to Felix Sandman's "Boys With Emotions" that also suffered from an overly repeated "chorus" and too little of the actual singer, as well as Latvia's "Heartbeat" from a while ago.

I think there is a good chance it will do well in Malmö. It builds on the tendency of the songs not necessarily having a strong melodic chorus, but rather a convincing beat (like Italy's entry). I'm not the biggest fan of that development, but I can see that it works. Good that we still have the juries to support the musicality, so it won't be too much "Luktelk luktelk" and "Cha cha cha".

Shower – Impossible It became my favorite and I was surprised to see it in 2nd place.

Regarding the winner, I still haven't understood the big hype around the song.
A modern sound in their own language with a very strong and memorable beat, but it seems like something is missing

Actually, it has grown on me a bit since the semis (which I really didn't like), so it might be promising, which is why I'm giving it points for now.

What does Luktelk mean and what is it about?

Word luktelk is a form of telling someone to 'wait', but more accurately it would be something like 'wait a second' like when asking someone not to leave just yet.

I gave it a for now but I feel like it has room to grow on me.

For some reason it's not quite clicking for me, but it's not bad.

Thanks for the superfinal, LRT! It literally saved both of our lives.

 

[Realest]

The Juries didnt know that Showers Appeal outside Lithuania doesnt exist?

Thanks for the superfinal, LRT! It literally saved both of our lives.

The super final is silly though. They could just change the tie-breaker to the tele-vote instead of padding the show an extra 30 minutes. Shower would've qualified as well to be honest but not do as well.

Since I watched the Lithuanian national final, Eurovizija.LT 2024 Final, online from the UK, on demand, one day late (18 February 2024), I've made a review video, containing my opinions on all ten finalist songs, in order of performance (based on Eurovizija.LT 2024 Final performances), and my ranking from tenth to first in My Eurovision Scoreboard.

The song has a good rhythm that still keeps my head nodding while I´m writing that post. I also like that it´s in Lithuanian, in English this would kinda sound cheep in my opinion.

The issue I have is that while the rhythm itself is great the chorus is a bit too tame for my taste, I kinda miss a bit of an "explosion" if you know what I mean. It also gets a bit too repetitive for me while it goes on.

Since I still kinda like it I give a good . Final isn´t in danger with that song but I´m sceptical if it´ll be as successful as some here and on other sites predict.

I was just rewatching his superfinal performance and I love how they seemingly had to change some of the camera angles because the audience was standing up to dance and blocking the camera angles.

 

[JenJen94]

Absolutely thrilled with this choice!! Best out of the lot from the final choices in Lithuania imo, hoping it'll do well in Malmo.

 

[Lance Esgard]

I've been having this and Sentimentai on repeat all day. The absolute excellence that Lithuania has been giving us this last few years...

I don't follow many Eurovision artists past Eurovision. Monika Liu is one of the exceptions.

 

[Iker]

Oh, I'd wish there was a singer like Monika Marija in Denmark and in DMGP.

Yeah, she'd stand out with her high quality vocals in that bunch. But she'd need a better song. Her typical ones are snoozefests.

 

[Iker]

I am shocked ... not at wiwigays eating this up. But it's still not quite in slayyy queen category for them I think. xD I like it too.

It's too cool for them actually. Not the slay yass queen huntie type of song they are preferring.

Yeah, if this was more tacky and even more in your face they'd love it even more. Especially if sung by a woman.

who will give the first banana?

 

[ZoboCamel]

for now, though it does feel like it has potential to grow on me.

My feeling was right. .
