Regardless of the context I am generally not a big fan of their entries, but this is a towering triumph and easily their best song since The Fire In Your Eyes. Both of them also share this haunting and captivating quality that just can't be ignored :12:
They really got the message of last year's success so WRONG! That said, this is not unsalvagable, I'll give :5:
I wanted Sini, but that turned out a bit shit, shame.
It was always going to be hard to follow up such a great entry like Carpe Diem, but is exceptionally weak for their (and her) standards. I really can't see a lot of people picking up their phone for this dirge :2:
Apart from Ukraine, this is the only song that offers something worthwhile as of now, and I'm happy they went with this instead of that Aqua carbon copy. That said, I don't think it's the best thing ever, but there is room for growth :8:
The production is kinda dated, it sounds like a song that would come out the same year when Ain't It Funny by J.Lo was a hit. You'd think that would be a compliment, but... eh, it doesn't do much for me. Hmm, they better invest in sim cards.
It all comes down to the following - does the instrumental have a strong enough captivating quality to overrule the rather cringy "Little Monster pretentious fanfic" vibe that this is also giving? And the answer is yes, yes it does.It goes hard and it slaps. If it catches on, I could see this...
