Dear neighbors,

I really, really like the song. Honestly. It's one of these songs that you just remember after hearing 27 songs in the Grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest. IF, and only IF the staging, the live vocals and the performance are well done. The live vocals are okay. They maybe need a bit of work but not that much. It's rather the staging that I would worry about. Why the white dress, why is there an ocean in the background, why? The chorus is well staged with the lights and the fog is very fitting... but the stage is way to light, way to "normal" for this dark, very tense song. Please change that. I feel like you could really place in the Top10 but not with that staging. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE change it. Thank you xlove

I assume they will do a massive overhaul on the staging. I mean the song was made for an epic stage show with an apocalyptic theme to match the song lyrics.

Anyway. I am very happy with this choice for Switzerland and looking forward to seeing Rykka in Stockholm:D

I can't say i'm particularly feeling this song at all. From my memory it was the best song left from an incredibly poor bunch, so good job there for at least making the right decision. Haven't seen the live performance yet but the studio version deosn't excite me at all, and that's a shame as I love synth/electro pop. I'll give this 4 points for now.

Bella C coming second is great news. She was my second favorite. Great vocalist, she sounded amazing. Theo should have been dead last.
