Slovenia SLOVENIA 2021 - Ana Soklič - Amen

[escYOUnited]

Hey child
Why ya hiding from the light?
Why ya cowering in fright?

Don’t tell yourself
The heavens cast you out
And you’ve fallen from grace

You’ll get beaten and bruised
You’ll be scarred unto your core
But it’s gonna make you who you are

When ya learn to heal
When ya learn to rise again
You can tell the sun, “Amen”

Hallelujah
We’re gloriousl
Hallelujah,
The day is dawning!
The storm’s relentless
But everybody knows
Everybody knows
We’re born to the fight

Hey child
The fear’ll never go away
Might as well accept it now

Learn to persevere.
Learn to count your blessings down
Greet the future with Amen

Hallelujah
We’re gloriousl
Hallelujah
The day is dawning!
The storm’s relentless
But everybody knows
Everybody knows
We’re born to the fight

Not until the rain has stopped,
Not until the thunder’s hushed
Are we at rest, are we at peace…
Just imagine it
Not until the storm has passed,
Not until it’s quiet
Can the heart that’s broken cry.

Hallelujah
We’re gloriousl
Hallelujah
The day is dawning!
The storm’s relentless
But everybody knows
Everybody knows
We’re born to the fight

Hey child
Why ya hiding from the light?​

Can I have my "Voda" back?

This is awful, and if that's not a ballad for her, she might have some problems

 

[empo21]

Voda was such a good song, especially after the revamp. I'll need another listen, but I'm not feeling it so far

 

[Looren]

I really loved "Voda" but for me this it better !

And here is my fifth of this ESC season

 

[Mrm]

I really dont like "Amen", at moments it soudns like Eric Saade is singing that with a nasal voice..
And it reminds me of "Rise like a Phoenix" YUCK!

 

[BorisBubbles]

points in the poll for now.

I dislike this? Also, more than Norway? I mean, I don't rly have a festering dislike for it, but Tix at least fucking has a stage show. ANOTHER EZIO VICTORY!!

 

[MalagaToledo]

Cheap copy of voda. Vincent bueno na aparatima. Hahaha

Sorry, slovenia no Finals for you. 1 pt so far.

 

[tuorem]

Okay. I am rather a little disappointed tbh. I have to listen to the song agin, but Voda was much stronger in my ears.

Same. I expected more tbh. Ana does the work with her voice, but it's musically... uneventful? The chorus is rather weak.

Apart from the fact Gospel music is not really my favourite genre, it did not sound like that song had much character. Not a good first impression for me.

This deserves my second points this season so badly! And usually I'm not a fan of this gospel thing at all...

 

[Mrm]

And that right wing party/radical christianity..this not for me..

2 in the poll

 

[gingerale]

A bit like a Rise Like a Phoenix vs Proud Mash-Up. Voda was more memorable. But it's nice.

 

[Mainshow]

I don't know how to rank this song (I'm listening to it for the fourth time in a row now).

I'm partly blown away but also slightly disappointed.

 

[astatine86]

Voda was/is a masterpiece. This is very bland. Sorry, Slovenia.

 

[Yoozek]

I really loved "Voda" but for me this it better !

And here is my fifth of this ESC season

The highest score I've given to any song this year is 7.

 

[aef]

I didn't expect this to be perceived with such mixed emotions here... This is a true banger in my opinion. The verses are a bit slow though

 

[ESC94]

Is it just me or does her voice sound a bit like Anastacia at some points??

 

[PinchyCrabstina]

Ana is amazing but Voda was better

 

[rasmuslights]

tbh I think another country bought her original song, I have no other explanation - because this is in every way a ballad.

 

[rasmuslights]

she is amazing, the song is fine this is my verdict.
