![]() ![]() The performance of Go_A was suiting what you can expect with this song. The Polish song of 2019 nearly made it to the final, so clearly there is a target audience for this type of music. The same style of singing, which is very dependable on personal taste, added with a better beat and interesting rhythm. Right from the first listen I labeled ‘Solovey’ as ‘Pali Sei 2.0’. A strong visual performance as it was in this year’s national selection may sway me slightly, but we’ll have to wait and see. That’s down to the fact that I don’t find her voice enjoyable to listen to, so it won’t really matter what the song is, I don’t know if i’d be able to get on board. Look, it’s only fair that the acts chosen this year are re-selected next year, but chances are, I won’t like their song for 2021. The pyro guitar is probably overkill, but it’s Eurovision after all. The colours and lighting really worked, and I think it would have translated well to the Eurovision stage. The stage performance I have less negative things to say, as I think it was really strong on camera. Would the public vote for this? I don’t know. Would juries really go for this? I don’t know. ![]() In a sense, it makes it hard to tell whether this would have qualified. Some people really love this song, and others are on the same page as me, and I don’t know if anyone really sits in the middle. I can’t necessarily tell if i’m a majority or minority in this opinion. It reminds me a lot of Bulgaria’s entry in 2007, which still to my surprise did as well as it did, but is probably my least favourite Eurovision entry of all time. Her voice is piercing, and so harsh to the ears. The vocals hit, and that’s where I can’t get on board with this song. The instrumentals are fantastic, and the atmosphere the song brings is great. Since selected, I’ve only listened to this once in full, and now will be the second time I struggle through for the sake of this review. In reality, I genuinely cannot stand this song. It has a lot of ethnic flair, strong instrumentals and an overall cultural feel about it. On paper, this is a song that I would really enjoy. ![]() This year it was up to the group Go_A to continue that streak of good results with their song Solovey. That’s not to mention the handful of Top 5 results, so it’s safe to say they are a force at Eurovision. Ukraine have a perfect qualification record at Eurovision, and in their fairly short history of the contest, have won twice. ![]()
