1:08 Jake: "I hope this won't sound like [Zena's song]" Me laughing hysterically for the rest of the video 😂😂😂 BTW, when you have a chance you should check out the runner up in their national final: Maria Ermakova - Vetra / Viatry. It's an ethnic / diva style fan fave that's better than most jesc entries this year.
This is interesting, my reaction to the song from Belarus is your reaction to the song from Australia, and my reaction to the song from Australia was your reaction to the song from Belarus, which I find quite funny. 😂 (Australia is 18th place and Belarus is 6th place in my top 19 ranking)
I like this song but they actually had a masterpiece in their nf (Viatry by Maria Ermakova, you should react to her live performance) but the jury voted against her bc they were against the composer of her song:((
The music video was throwing some early 90s style, which I don't mind, except now I have this strong urge to listen to East 17 and wear a hypercolor t-shirt and slap bracelets.
I like the song, but the text looks meaningless (I know Russian and I can understand what Lisa sings about) Still the top 2, but the text is frustrating
I feel like you're just not really familiar with Eastern European music trends. This type of sound isn't dated there. Doesn't mean it's good though haha I don't like this song either.
PLEASE Jake, you should react to the National Final runner up performance VETRA (amazing song) by Maria Ermakova. She won the public vote, people wanted her to go to JESC but their national jury *cough* let's break the rules... *cough* placed her so low and Liza ended up winning. I'm telling you man, VETRA was a much better song to send... Hope you have a good day/night!
Lmao Jake you had one in three chance of getting the stress in the last name correct (last syllable is for French only) and you picked two wrong vowels to stress. Lol M’isnikova But you tried lol all one can ask.
I hope this won't sound like ZENA...yeah about that... At least this fits jesc and their usual entries here.Translating the chorus in english was not really a good idea because it doesn't feel organic but oh well...
