North Macedonia NORTH MACEDONIA 2022 - Andrea - Circles

[escYOUnited]

I just want a healthy conversation
Get it right and fix this situation
Everything is crumbling down beneath us
We run around, run around in circles
Tell me, is this our last temptation?
Can we even fix this situation?
Do I listen to my heart or mind, 'cause
We run around, run around in circles
Circles, circles
Oh, circles


You don't wanna test my limits
But something tells me you're not listenin'
Probably, you're going crazy
It's all you've been doing lately
You don't wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you're not listenin'
Can you stop calling me baby
I've made up my mind already
We're running in circles


I just want a hеalthy conversation
Get it right and fix this situation
Everything is crumbling down bеneath us
We run around, run around in circles
We run around in circles
Ooh, yeah


You don't wanna test my limits
But something tells me you're not listenin'
Probably, you're going crazy
It's all you've been doing lately
You don't wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you're not listenin'
Can you stop calling me baby
I've made up my mind already, yeah-eah
We're running


You don't wanna test my limits
But something tells me you're not listenin'
Probably, you're going crazy
It's all you've been doing lately
You don't wanna test my limits
I gave you all, but you're not listenin'
Can you stop calling me baby
I've made up my mind already
We're running in circles​

I doubt, that North Macedonia will pass the semi with it, quite an average song... hoped for Superman

 

[lasse braun]

they throw away a true trash pearl (superman) into the trash bin and got a weak pop 0815 song.
ok - houston we have a problem.

 

[aletem]

Well done! I knew they gonna choose Andrea even before the songs were released. Hopefully she will enjoy the experience and represent Macedonia respectively!

I really enjoyed this song from her that was also released last year:

 

[fango]

For me, "Circles" is a boring, bland song, 3 points.
At least "Superman" could get some televote points.
This is the only chance to make it to the final.
Cheesy pop song but happy party song.

Once again some random people, who aren't even from the country, chose the entry over the will of the people the entry is going to represent. At least the Macedonian broadcaster didn't have the audacity to make people pay for their votes.
"Circles" has nice verses but the chorus is kinda meh. The song and the lyrics get repetitive after the first chorus too. Maybe a small revamp would help.
Unless the performance is superb, I don't see it qualifying, but I don't think it will be. They have managed to bury great songs with bad performances, so I highly doubt that they can elevate an average song with a good staging but we will see.

 

[Ana Raquel]

My last so far but at least it wasn't yon idy

because I don't even dislike it, it's just there

 

[Sammy]

Those lyrics are a sample of the most annoying phrases you hear in fights of couples. why make a song out of these hollow, toxic conversations?

 

[crashworld]

Seriously I just cannot take her facial expressions in the lyrics video, it's pretty off-putting. The song is just a big pile of meh.
Please stay in the SF, thank you. Giving her a for participation points. Easily one of the worst entries from North Macedonia in the 2000s.

 

[ZoboCamel]

#justiceforsuperman. He can ping and he can pong, a man of many talents... but alas, Macedonia decided to give all the other countries a chance by holding him back from Eurovision.

As for the winner... well, it's pleasant to listen to, and I actually really love her voice. Unfortunate then that the song kind of stays in one gear throughout; I feel like Macedonia will struggle to get through the semis again.

Still, 6 points from me for now... which might not sound super high, but it's enough to make Macedonia probably my equal second favourite in what has been a pretty unremarkable lineup of songs for my taste so far this year.

 

[HayashiM]

This might come to life when sung live, but it's gonna be a long stretch. I don't remember much about the song after 5 replays, except that I don't really like the flow of the lyrics.
In its current form, it is my last place of the current season - I am sorry. points.

 

[hungo]

thats a very boring song. 1 point

 

[Shadowfuxcs]

Never thought I would be missing Vasil.

 

[ESCREGION]

A mediocre song but there was nothing better . points

 

[Gera11]

Similar to Ireland, a nice song but nothing that gets me excited. I'm gonna need a revamp for this. points

 

[Yazy]

Flat, inoffensive and uneventful.

Last time a song sounded to me like a straight endless line was when I heard Ira Losco´s "Chameleon".

But this song here might be good for something maybe.
Like listening to it while meditating.

Because when I meditate, I try not to think about anything.
And there is sure as hell nothing happening in this song.

 

[rasmuslights]

it's definitely better than vasil.

 

[Gera11]

it's definitely better than vasil.

Is that hard to achieve though?

 

[Yazy]

I think I prefer Vasil.

At least Vasil made me feel something, whether its good or bad.

 

[Looren]

Vasil was my 3rd last year, Andrea will probably finish in my top 10 but I like Vasil more

 

[Ezio]

This song mediocre and depressing. Better luck next year. Viktor was camp, but broadcasters seem very scared to please the televoters these days.
