The rehearsal video from Eurovision.tv is quite bad quality, I mean I couldn't see very well what's going on there on stage, I can't be 100% sure if I like it or not. But nevermind....the sound was very good, imo...and I think singing of Zeljko was (surprisingly?) good. I expected worse. So far so good. I'm OK with settings so far, hopefully it gets only better and better. I'd like if performance stay simple and minimalistic.

Boring! Don't like it! Every year Serbian entry is the same!

Yeah sure. Cipela, Čaroban, Ovo je Balkan and Molitva are totally identical, "amazing observation" :?

No doubt Zeljko is an awesome singer, but for me this is coming off a bit too stale presentation-wise (but its suitable to the song).

Qualifier for sure though, imo.

I am delighted with Zeljko's rehearsal :D Just like what I expected. The accent should definetly be on the song, and not on the dancers or some other external factors that may pull off the attention from the song.

The only disadvantage is that the basic concept of the show was already seen, but a song like this really doesn't require any stage show at all, so it is a choice between an act like this, or a "single man" show. I personally prefer this one.

He sang great as well. I am pretty sure that with the costumes it will look even better.

Also, I heard that the backdrop may be changed to something better in the next rehearsal........

Sweden calling.
Cipela is one of my favourite songs of Eurovision, ever. It's the only entry I can still enjoy as when I heard it the first time. Such grinding energy, almost like an orgasm. And I often appreciate the serbian entries, but this year you send a ballad with not enough power, imo. Anyway, I'll keep enjoy Cipela and hope for something more rhytmic from you guys next year. Serbian is a wonderful language too. It's so heavy but still relaxed.
I must wish you good luck!

Željko doesn't need all sorts of unnessecary gimmicks on stage. Unlike most other countries his presence alone is enough to make this entry magical and a possible winner candidate. Serbia is in my top-10 so it's very likely that I'm gonna vote for it in the final if(when!) he qualifies.

On a different note Željko seems like such a cool dude when interviewed, and probably one of my favorite persons we have in this year's ESC. Nothing arrogant or dramaqueen about him. He just performs and let's the music speak for itself.
