Serbia SERBIA 2023 - Luke Black - Samo mi se spava

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[aef]

Hahah I just randomly listened to Luke Black - Samo mi se spava hahaha and this actually is quite amazing. Totally crazy song. I haven't listened to the other songs, let's find out what is offering us this year.

 

[mauve]

Looking forward to listen to them!

 

[tsegaye]

I've had a quick listen and I LOOOOVE Filip Balos. Maybe the same genre as Gustaph but this feel way more fresh and interesting and it could be a great moment on stage. Luke Black also stood out during the first listen. This national final will be exciting!

Serbia delivers Hit after Hit, i can't remember when i have so many 10 the last time. I love the songs from Zejna, Filarri, Savo, Filip and Princ, they are bangers and so hot.
Serbia have high chance to be very high in my ranking, i prefer Zejna as winner, but any of my top 5 would be amazing. Also Luke, Stefan & again Hurricane would be a strong pick for Serbia.

on first contact i have an early favorite - why is this song not in benidorm today?
when we have cha,cha,cha in liverpool we also need a rumba there.
(like the male rumba chorus in this track) + the horny trumpets!

 

[Mainshow]

Unfortunately, "Flamenco" didn´t qualify despite being #2 in the televoting and thus, we don´t need "Rumba" in Liverpool, either

 

[Deleted member 12761]

It's not as good as last year for me but the quality is again very high. At first listen I really liked Luke Black, Hurricane, Chegi and Zejna.

 

[lasse braun]

the horny trumpets!

for similar horny trumpets you have to wait until 2:26.
UK has not had the balls to send this very nice song last year - they have sent a happy man with long hair.

Actually I am a bit disappointed about this selection. There is no real song that instantly clicks with me. But nevertheless I have a few favorites that can change though. Need to listen to this section again to capture all songs.
For now:

Mattia Zanatta and Angela Kassiani – Novi svet
Luke Black – Samo mi se spava
Zejna – Rumba
Angellina – Lanac
Nadia – Devojka tvog dečka

 

[randajad]

I am yet to hear any of them, but Balkan twitter is having fine reactions which is rare given the toxicity and will to drag everything through filth, so the expectations are relatively high.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I really like Luke Blacks song.

Though I haven't listened to any of the other songs yet so I can't say if it's my pick. It's a good sign for this selection though for sure!

 

[EscGeek]

Hurricane 2.0. are making the exact same type of music as before. They are my winners!
I'm sure there's a place in my top 3/top 5 waiting for them if selected.

Filip Baloš has an absolute banger too.

I was expecting a little bit more from Angellina given that she was my favorite last year, but she's still worthy of being on my list.

LOL at Duo Grand... good idea, but i'm not willing to endure the opera part for those 30 seconds of the song that sound so good they're on par with my top faves. Speaking of opera... "Cvet sa istoka" > "Cvet z juga"

My top 9:

1-Hurricane "Zumi zimi zami"
2-Filip Baloš "Novi plan drugi san"
3-Nadia "Devojka tvog dečka"
4-Zejna "Rumba"
5-Tijana Dapčević "Mamim"
6-Angellina "Lanac"
7-Savo Perović "Presidente"
8-Princ "Cvet sa Istoka"
9-Chegi & Braća Bluz Band "Svadba ili kavga"

 

[AlekS]

Hurricane - obviously oriented at zoomers (even the song title sounds alike). Usually I expect something like this from Armenia. At JESC.

If I had to choose between 3 prominent dumBop entries, I would chose Zejna, but ESC jury would crucify her for this lyrics... not Savo Perović because Spain will choose Agoney most def who's miles better than this.
I would chose Luke Black. The Nine Inch Nails-like beginning gets me I don't mind another contemp masterpiece after Konstrakta.



The number of likes divided on the number of views:

1. Luke Black - 5.7%
2. Filip Baloš - 5.6%
3. Nađa - 5.1%
4. Stefan Shy / Zejna - 4.95%
6. Savo Perović - 4.77%
7. Hurricane - 4.6%

Is TikTok popular in Serbia? That and previous popularity can help Hurricane to massively win the televoting.

I also wouldn't mind Hurricane going again tbh

 

[aef]

Haha by looking at the participants I just got to know that there is Hurricane 2.0. What's even the point of keeping a band name in use when each original band member has left the band at the same time. Quite silly IMHO

Talking about the song, wow this is boring. Even with completely new members they are serving us a song we've more or less heard like that two years ago. Where is the innovation?

There were many such bands though.
