Don't get offended ,Serbs are passionate,and we do have dark sense of humour.

Serbians are normay cool by nature, and this song + last year song is the proof of it. I love it.

this is my number 1 right now. when i tell you i’m obsessed i haven’t stopped watching the performance since he won

I' m still laughing you two 🤣🤣🤣 Don' t be afraid of us Serbians. I' m sooooo happy that Luke won. I pray for him to do well in UK.

Сербия отличная заявка ❤️🇷🇺🙏 Если ты читаешь это из Сербии, я шлю тебе воздушный поцелуй и обнимашки из Москвы 😘😘😘 ☺️

שנה מצוינת השנה בעיני! שיר מדהים!

Serbia an interesting entry,very different and strange,I like it 🥺

Serbs listen this kind of music,in 80' we had great new wave scene.This is electro ghotic and I like it.Thank you ))

After 2018 and 2019 I would never say that Serbia will be able to send a song like this. Im so proud and happy. Another top 10. For a win I think it needs a completely different staging, but its already good enough.

I loooove your humor in this video!!! 😂😂😂 And we,Serbs,are like that,we NEED to comment everything,so do not get offend by some of our comments. 😂 And we can not wait to see Luke on a big stage on ESC. It will be amazing. 🥰

Little help: The lobster is a symbol of regeneration, as in the beginning the white water lily is a symbol of rebirth.. Such a deep message. This song is a critique of the modern society and contemporary world. He makes connection with a video games where young people (and everyone else) are, artistically speaking, controlled by someone else and are just observers of all the horror happening around the Globe. He uses himself as a metaphor - (he only wants to sleep), as it is the easiest thing to do - to oversleep all the tragedies and to wake up in a better world. If you carefully look the performance - you will see that they are dancing as zombies as they are under anesthesia not reacting on this "world on fire" as he notices. However, the message of the song is quite opposite - we should all wake up, we should react, we should have more conscience and sapience that he calls on, especially to decision makers. At the end of the song he "releases" those "controlled" masses in order to become more active, more energetic and they together react - walk, make changes together. The "hello" part was written inspired by the Sims game, where the characters wave the player when they want something, instead of taking action, so he uses a parallel with people today.

My new winner so far 🇷🇸♥️

I'm sorry we've traumatized you so much as a nation 😂 Great reaction! ❤

Best reaction videos belongs to you. 👍👏😊

Thank you very much for your lovely reaction. Love from Serbia ❤️

The message is that the whole world is burning and young people would rather plug themselves in a video game and sleep through it, and as young person myself I completely agree.

Me at 2 a.m - Samo mi se spava 😂 First time ever I looove Serbian song at ESC❤️🥹😂 PS: He was studying in UK. It feels like almost everyone who is coming to ESC this year, has some connection with UK and Its sooo nice.

Hello from Serbia my lovely guys❣️thanks for reaction🥳🎉🥇

I appreciate Serbia in the contest because they were basically in Eurovision jail* for like 10 years and then they came back in 2004 (or 2007 if you wanna get super technical) and since then they've mostly sent banger after banger *in case anyone doesn't know, Yugoslavia (which was just Serbia and Montenegro at the time) had UN sanctions against them starting in 92 because of the wars going on in the 90s and those were lifted in the early 2000s which is why Serbia has a short lifespan in the contest.

Luke Black : " - Many times before and after the pandemic, it happened that the world became too intense and that I always feel better somehow when I take a nap. I feel like I'm regenerating somehow. As good as it is for me as an individual, it is not good on a global level for us all to sleep while something is happening around us. I believe that we need to control our environment a little. One of the messages is a collective awareness, which I hope will happen - Luke told the Telegraph earlier. ............. "The song tells people that they should wake up because evil grows when we keep our eyes closed. Only when we wake up can we defeat them".

First place Serbia Luke Black 🔥🖤

Peace&Love from Serbia for you 2! 😘😘

Im so proud of our countries entry. Year after year, we send different song and quality, which i love! :)

Tnx for reaction! Greetings from🇷🇸🦞

Finally 😂❤️ thank you guys, love from Serbia 👏👏👏👏

I enjoy watching you ♥️ from Serbia.

I could not wait for your reaction! As for each Eurovision! You are unbiased simply led by your own genuine preferences!! Im from Serbia and your fan❤ when I saw your reaction for Luke, I had to see it right away… while walking on the street!!! 😂i couldn’t wait to get home! Thanks for your genuine reaction!!! as always

you two are always the vibe! Love your reaction, and Luke!

This song and Finlandś Cha Cha Cha are my favorites for the ESC win. Love both songs and hope for a great result for them

Fun fact: The guy who made music for Konstraktas song last year is the same guy who worked on this song. So both In Corpore Sano and Samo mi se spava are comming out of kinda same group of people. Great reaction! 😊

Absolutely love this, definitely could come in the top 5

I just looooved your reaction! It was so interesting. Regards from Belgrade❤

so winner vibes! Belgrade 2024? 🇷🇸

The best line for me is: RAZUM SPAVA, DOK SVET GORI Translation: Reason sleeps while the World burns.

i love you guys even if you dont like our song😂❤. you are so funny and cute, lots of love from 🇷🇸

Guys , love from Serbia

But we LOOOOVE u over here!! We just like a good "discussion" and love to put down our own choices!

This is my 2nd place right now, absolutely love this song. Meanwhile I'm still pissed off at TVP for ruining my perfect electronic trio for this year (Luke, Käärijä and Jann). Thanks, TVP.

This was Luke's first performance on big stage in his life. And special message for Goy (who is still pissed 😁) is : weee loveè youuuu Goyyyy !! 😘❤

Listen to Luke Black-Amsterdam 😁 He is an artist.

Great reaction. Greetings from Serbia! Read the lyrics.

love you guys, great reaction as always!

It's more sci fi than horror. He's saying that we're all in a simulation. That "hello" is from the game Sims. He's saying that we're all sleeping while the world around us burns.

It will be in the top 5 this song.

Dark vibes and very artistic 🫶🦞. Luke is harismatic, but this song not about vocals.☺️

Are Luke Black's lyrics and music so dark? Je ne crois pas.Serbie🇷🇸💥 my top.5 de Paris 🇫🇷

Such a deep message. This song is a critique of the modern society and contemporary world.

you two crack me up LOL! love ya both

Love from Serbia🇷🇸❤

Tnx boys ❤️ Greetings from Novi Sad Serbia

You guys are awesome sweetness! Forget about haters, they hate themselves the most. Keep doing this, and thank you for a great reaction.

The whole performance is a boss battle and Luke defeats the boss by un-wiring the dancers. I am pretty sure it doesn't have anything to do with covid. Also the "Hello?" part where he looks up is a reference to The Sims!

Love this one! For me it's the only entry which can beat Loreen.

My number one song right now and I am not from Serbia 😆

Haha I loved you guys watching this!! I loved this performance.

Love this entry! Serbia has so many good entries this year. You two would have loved Filip Balos, zeijna, Angelina and Savo

Thanks for your reaction, glad you like it 🙈 The Song is from the perspective of an Sims Character. Samo mi se spava - I only want to sleep. He only want to sleep, while the world is on fire. Really enjoyed it, all the best to you!

Bless him! 2023 needs Luke. Whether he's a real artist or just a big show-off doesn't matter. He is a breath of fresh air. - Full confession: I still do love Konstrakta more. 🙄

Big tnx for your reaction 😍🤩😍 from Serbia. In the simplest terms : the song appeals to our reason and our conscience, ...therefore the message of this song is COLLECTIVE AWAKENING (the age of Aquarius is coming) , from the crisis the world has fallen into. The old (current) order of civilization is collapsing... obviously, a NEW one emerges from the collapse of the old.We all expect the complete collapse of EVERYTHING if we don't take action immediately.The song is certainly multi-layered.This is a powerful message conveyed through this performance, which will be specially upgraded for Liverpool. You guys need to study the text: Baby watch the world on fire It is all a game to me I don't wanna choose my fighter Who's taking control of me? Hello? I just wanna sleep Go to sleep I just wanna sleep forever Like it better when I dream I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire I just wanna close my eyes And just get it over with I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire Night, infinite hours Devils on my shoulder I just wanna sleep forever To beat them that way Hello? Game over (go to sleep) (I just wanna sleep) I just wanna sleep forever Like it better when I dream I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire I just wanna close my eyes And just get it over with I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire War (War) Hunger Hopeless Moral sleeps While the world is on fire (Burn) It's the end Darkness Lasts Moral sleeps While the world is on fire (go to sleep) (I just wanna sleep) (I just wannа ѕleep)

Once again, love your watching your reactions and enjoyment with all these songs fellas. Happy fishing 🎣🤣😂

Main mesaage is in the end when says "Reason sleeps While the world is burning the song is about a collective awakening You can see lyrics in english and to understand it

Based on what I know about your reaction to Konstrakta, I'm gonna guess you guys are not going to like it, before even watching the video 😂😆 I also think that you will say that the runner-up of the Serbian national selection was a better choice for Serbia, after you listen to his song. Let's see if I hit the nail on the head about your reaction, or if I'm way off. Still love your reactions regardless which way it goes 💙 Update: Okay I was way off, but I will say Luke lived in the UK for a long time, and hearing you say that you like electronic music makes sense. Luke is very into that underground UK artsy/clubby music scene, so it makes a lot of sense. Also, Serbia's national selection was so queer and androgynous, you guys. Kind of shocking for a relatively conservative Balkan country.

🤣🤣 yes u 2 are funny buy im still having my eye on you 😆

What or who is Coy? :) I guess it is cat? or a gnome ? ghost? dwarf ?do not torture your fans :)))):) please introduce:)... but Serbia- Extremely actual theme and absolute fantasy bop of the new reality of young generation!

Primera vez que estoy completamente de acuerdo con ustedes 😅😅

The song talks about something very evil happening in the world right now but we are all asleep (the New World Order with the The 2030 Agenda and Covid plan, etc). He wake up, but repeats all the time that he would like to continue sleeping cause the reality is very dark. All the song shows a computer fight with the evil (who looks like Baphomet?) I LOVE the song. My TOP5 so far

Awwww..hahahaha...We send another smart song ,second year ,in a row and it makes difficulties to these two bees..again...😂😂😂😂❤

I am from Serbia,love song and love u guys. You are so funny. Miss the fat guy that reacted with you guys

What I got from it as a first reaction without knowing the translation of the lyrics was so much cooler than what it supposed to represent. I thought he was part of an alien species/insect related but technologically advanced, hence the flower bed and the charging cables to his 4 warrior robots that he was unplugging.

Its funny how lot of people who are not Serbian says "Biti slava" which means "Be glory" instead of " Biti zdrava" 😄😅

Last year, the Jury stole Konstrakta.. now Luke Black is here to avenge her

Omg you two make me laugh as a crazy. 😂😂😂😂😂

That's what I'm looking for when I watch Eurovision...

Ahahahahah, you two look cute :D I just started watching. The issue with Hurricane is that we, Serbs, actually hated Hurricane and were ashamed of it :D

He is serbian from uk he is popular in asia he went on a tour that sold out ao fast. Also konstrakta team is behind him and konstrakta herself too.

His song talks about the desire to escape from the madness of this world through a dream. At the same time, he feels that something is controlling him, like in a video game, and he doesn't want to stay in that state. That robot in the background represents that. So at the end he shuts down the dancers and this robot dies, it says 'ENEMY DEFEATED' at the end. The message is to wake up, it is a collective awakening. It's a pity that this boy will be abused by people from Serbia who are not even close to him in terms of talent, education, intelligence, or character...and I feel sorry for those people. Kao sto bi moj kolega rekao " Mani me poucnih poruka u pesmama. Mi smo plitak narod i navikli smo na balkanjero seljanu"

Please guys, when you have time, react to the choices we had, like Filip Balos, Princ, Dzipsi, Zejna. You can choose any of them, Princ got only 300 more votes than Luke and after that was Filip. We had many good choices but please be honest if we made good choice like last year. Thank you for reaction. ❤️❤️

This intro was mother of all disclaimers 😁

My favourite duo😍😍😍😎😎😘😘😘😘😘

Your reaction on Konstrakta was good because was honest. Don't mind Serbian teenage salty boys. Greetings from Serbia.

I would recommend listening to the studio version. The ending bit especially is trance inducing for me - it makes me feel like I'm in a nightclub. Unfortunately, his live vocal takes me out of it, so I'm hoping he works on that. That's the only part of his performance that makes me nervous regarding his chances on doing well in May. However, he did show some improvement compared to his semi-final performance, so I'm hopeful. This year was basically the year of the twink in the Serbian NF - made it for some fun, interesting and boppy performances.

Only Eurovision Chanel I need❤🎉🤗

In my top 3 with sweden and Czech

Omg it's a video game ...matrix style inspired. Easy

SAMO MI SE SPAVA (I AM JUST SLEEPY) Baby watch the world on fire It is all a game to me I don't wanna choose my fighter Who's taking control of me? Hello? Samo mi se spava (I am just sleepy) I just wanna sleep forever I like it better when I dream Želim zauvek da spavam (spavam) (I want to sleep forever) Dok svet gori (While the world burns) I just want to close my eyes And just get it over with Želim zauvek da spavam (I want to sleep forever) Dok svet gori (While the world burns) Noć je, beskonačni sati (It's night, endless hours) Na ramenu đavoli (Devils on my shoulder) Želim samo večno spati (I just want to sleep forever) Tako da ih pobedim (So I beat them) Hello? Game Over (sleep) I just wanna sleep forever I like it better when I dream Želim zauvek da spavam (I just wanna sleep forever) Dok svet gori (While the world burns) I just wanna close my eyes And just get it over with Želim zauvek da spavam (I want to sleep forever) Dok svet gori (While the world burns) This comes to an end now War, glad je (War It's hunger or It's famine) Bez nade (Without hope) Savest spava (Conscience is sleeping) Dok svet gori (While the world burns) Gori, kraj je (Burn, It is the end) Mrak traje (Darkness lasts) Razum spava (Reason sleeps) Dok svet gori (While the world burns)

omg guys u are hilarious and i love it hahaha, ly

oh praising Sara Jo's 9/8 song was smart of you to notice :P

Omg I can't believe you like it 🤣. I seems that everyone likes it, except 50% of Serbs. We are really strange country 🤦‍♀️. I just don't agree with you that this year is weak, I think this will go down is history as one of the strongest and most memorable years. P.s. by the way, I agree with you for Konstrakta. That performance is interesting and mathematicaly precise (which I like), but the song itself is nothing, I would never listened to audio alone. And this Luke's song I listened 100 times 😁

Luka came out two days after winning national final on tik tok. So your gaydar was spot on.

"THE MEANING OF THE SONG IS ACTUALLY VERY DEEP, HE TALKS ABOUT "- comments incoming. Prepare for landing. 😷

You are sooo cute ! Thanks from Serbia.

Love ya 😘

fantastic😍

he will win, no worries

13:40 there was no studio audience just camermans and staff

❤❤❤

song is wake up call while he singing...i just want to sleep

Think of it as waking up from the matrix.

Baby watch the world on fire It is all a game to me I don't wanna choose my fighter Who's taking control of me? Hello? I just wanna sleep Go to sleep I just wanna sleep forever Like it better when I dream I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire I just wanna close my eyes And just get it over with I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire Night, infinite hours Devils on my shoulder I just wanna sleep forever To beat them that way Hello? Game over (go to sleep) (I just wanna sleep) I just wanna sleep forever Like it better when I dream I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire I just wanna close my eyes And just get it over with I want to sleep forever While the world is on fire War (War) Hunger Hopeless Moral sleeps While the world is on fire (Burn) It's the end Darkness Lasts Moral sleeps While the world is on fire (go to sleep) (I just wanna sleep) (I just wannа ѕleep)
