So hopefully the song will be improved even further - I reckon Ukraine will get it's 3rd #2 placing this year!

I'm glad they're going to revamp the song, I strongly suggest to put more emphasis on the trumpets, that would be really awesome!!!

I saw Giatana's name there, and I said "Oh, let's hope for a jazzy-pop song, that fits her voice"! I started listening, and it was like going back to the 80's with a bad copy of a Diana-Ross-Whitney-Houston-uptempo song! Her voice sounds very annoying in this kind of songs... What a waste... :(

4 points, just because I like Gaitana, and it has some good moments.

Btw, is it only me, or the dancers are similar to that awful dancers that Nikki Ponte had last year? :eek:

Edit: I'm glad to hear that she will revamp the song! Let's make it an extreme makeover, and yes, emphasis on the trumpets would be a very good idea! Please please please...

I do like the beginning of the song, and most of the verses are fine too, but for me the chorus is too boring and repetitive with just the single line. Am looking forward to the revamped version, yes more emphasis on those trumpets please, and as always with Ukraine, looking forward to the performance! Oh, and if you internally select Zlata next year (yes please!), can you do the same for Max in 2014? :cool:

^Same here, every day I listen to Max (Dance) at least once....lol. It's a great song/performer and could end up top3 or even win for Ukraine.
I see GRE mentioned Jamala...:D I miss Jamala, I loved 'smile', what a positive song it was:D

^ Both flopped their live performances :D

With such pale performance and sucky vocals - definitely bottom 10.
After seeing 2 Max's performances in our NFs I'm against him representing us in any year if he continues performing like that :(


Zlata said that she didn't apply this year because she chose to have rest (whole January in Thailand) and concentrated on releasing 2 albums and tour (1 album in February, tour with a band in April and another album later). She's working like crazy in the studio and most def we should expect her next year :D

There is nothing to change or develop in this song. it is totally awful. You can think another but changing the package garbage will stay a garbage inside anyway.

Ruslana :

“Me and Sasha congratulate whole-heartedly Gaitana and wish her good luck! Gaitana has a wonderful charisma. It is very important thing for the victory! I believe in her victory and will keep my fingers crossed! I am not sure we know a recipe for success but we have a great experience and we are ready to share it!”.

Aleks, does every performer from Ukraine prepare for (go to) Eurovision with her/his own team or is there a core group of people that's involved with every delegation?
