I'm sure Nina's placement will surprise everyone, in a positive way, of course. Remember my words ;)
What would surprise me with this song is if it finnished dead last, and to me, that would be kind of positive :) But I know what you mean, and unfortunantly you're probably right.

Why unfortunately? The song is great, as well as Nina. You just don't like that kind of music, that's all. You should learn to distinguish your taste for music from objective quality of the song. For example, I don't listen to rock music. But I can clearly tell what is a good rock song, even though I won't like the song personally.

That's basicly what i'm saying when I say, that "you're probably right". She's a talented gal, it sure has quality, only problem is as you say, I don't like that sort of retro style music and I sure as hell don't want it to win. And because the song has quality, it WOULD be a real "surprise" if it ended up dead last, just as I said, It wouldn't make me sad if it did though. :) and it would be very "unfortunate" for my individual top10 if it won.

Are we understanding each other? :)

Not a cat's chance iN hell of this winning. It's a nice song, very light and cheerful and retro sixties but nowhere near strong enough to hit the top 5 let alone win. There are some much stronger, more immediate songs. But this is a pleasant filler and should make the final OK. Not a patch on Molitva or Oro, but better than the last two years entries.

Allthough I like this song, I also believe, that Nina couldn´t win. But with a good presentation it can end in TOP10. But favorites are other songs and countries.
Oh, I must say, that I´m very happy, that she will sing in her domestic language - this sounds more beautiful.

^ OK Now I understand what she sings in english. Not the entire chorus though. :p Anyway why is she singing this in english? I thought she would perform it in serbian in ESC.

I don't know if it's the song or the retro colors, but I like it.

Good luck Serbia! Usually songs don't grow on me a whole lot but this one did. Still not that excited about it but qualification is probably a possibility. 6 - 8th place and 13th in the Semis!

No matter how much I like the song, I still don't trust Nina's vocals and don't think juries will buy it.

Aw man this is such a cool song. I think it stands out as very distant from the mainstream pop fare, very kitch. On a personal note, I didn't think I would understand the Serbian language as much as I did (I am learning Czech), and its a very interesting language to contrast differences with.
