    This song is catchy as hell. I have high hopes for this, it could be Lithuania’s best result in Eurovision.

    This is top of my rankings ❤🇱🇹 I highly recommend the Eurovizija national final performance as it’s more polished (this is the winner’s performance at the end of the show)

    • @IanSowers
      @IanSowers 8 месяцев назад +9

      It's true that the national final performance was better. This was more of celebration, especially toward the end

    The performance you watched could have been from the super final or after the victory was announced. Silvester was a huge fan favorite and at this performance people just stood up, clapped and sang along with him. It was the atmosphere of the moment. I would probably do the same if I were there, because Luktelkt is my favorite next to Ulveham. I like the contrasts in this song: his delicate voice combined with the beat, the modern sound and a note of nostalgia in the melody, and the Lithuanian language itself, for my Polish ear, combines hardness and softness in an extremely beautiful way. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him. Greetings from Poland and Hungary :)

      @IanSowers 8 месяцев назад +4

      This was after the victory, so more of a celebration than a careful, polished performance. Still quite good, although it gets a bit loose toward the end

    i love that lithuania is sending different stuff each year in the recent years and not even basic stuff, and yet they qualify every year since 2021. i do prefer both monikas, but this is a great song

    Silvester is capturing the Troye Sivan zeitgeist. He’s proving that just because it’s not loud doesn’t mean it’s not effective.

    Very cool and slick! Definitely a top five contender! One of the best songs this year (alongside Estonia AND Croatia - oh boy have you got your work cut out!). The Baltics this year seem to be on fire! I think the audience were clapping and singing because this is the winner's performance?

    • @baidykle1
      @baidykle1 8 месяцев назад +2

      That's right! It's the winner's performance + he's already built quite a following in Lithuania. I got a feeling while watching the whole show that there were a lot of people who love his music in the audience. 🙂

      @Doivid297 8 месяцев назад +1

      @@ThePeaceAround I prefer it to Italy just a tad (although both in my top 6), but yeah, I can't see Lithuania winning overall. There's always the one favourite that you kind of aren't sure why it's there.

    The more I listen to this one the more I like it ! First I thought, this is some cheap 90's beat technology, but it changed for me, the minimalism is intentional I think and is pretty nice to the ears. My current number 4. I hope they do work on the other dancer's costumes though, those feel real cheap, but I love the strobe part a lot !

    • @ThePeaceAround
      @ThePeaceAround  8 месяцев назад +1

      The minimalism of this is really cool, completely agree!

  • @sarahenchanted
    @sarahenchanted 8 месяцев назад +3

    When I first heard it I didn't think much of it (this was during the first heat of that nf and it was being hyped up). Then I gave it another chance it grew on me and is now probably gonna stay in my top 10 this year. I think it's one of those songs you either don't care for at first and it grows on you or you're captivated right away.
    The clapping out of time can be annoying but I'm glad Lithuanians are behind this song at least 😂

    • @ThaGamingMisfit
      @ThaGamingMisfit 8 месяцев назад +1

      I had the same feeling, first I was like, they used like every 90's dance sample and called it done, but it grow on me and I'm quite sure the sound is minimalistic on purpose.

    I love this one. It's extremely atmospheric--there's almost something mystical about it. I hope they bring that lightshow to Malmö. The only thing is that when M&M inevitably win Melodifestivalen, they're going to be bringing a very similar sort of performance. Or at least similar enough that it might get people asking themselves if they can really support two club bangers in one final, even if the energy is completely different.

  • @GossipGirl770
    @GossipGirl770 8 месяцев назад +5

    I don’t understand why would they put up the winners performance to the official eurovision chanel rather than the actual performance in the final…the winners performance is always less serious and therefore you get all the clapping and it’s not as polished as the actual performance of the night

    • @ThePeaceAround
      @ThePeaceAround  8 месяцев назад +1

  • @helidon583
    @helidon583 8 месяцев назад +2

    I almost liked the artistic, cool vibe of Luktelk when I heard this for the first time, a bit similar artistic vibe to Serbia's Luke Black and his 'Samo mi se spava' last year.
    Now that I have listened to Luktelk a few times, its original strength, the cool vibe, is just simply deflating to the point where it's annoying; I feel the same thing about the nostalgic melody.
    Luktelk is really popular among the fandom, but maybe I am not in its target group. All the best to Silvester in Malmö, though, I think he will do well there.

  • @mantasgailiusful

  • @citizensallianceaustralia2025
    @citizensallianceaustralia2025 8 месяцев назад +2

    The song is Eurovision all night but unless they do something on stage they will be lost in the crowd and with Lithuania not among the countries who usually dominate blocks, they will need to up the stage presence. They have the voice and the composition but they need more of a show.

    Forgive me if this is taken the wrong way but did you say you have ADHD when commenting on claps at the start of song? He is the writer or co writer of the song is Silvester and he has a university degree in music which he got in London and where he will be for pre eurovision party.

    • @ThePeaceAround
      @ThePeaceAround  8 месяцев назад +1

      Yes I did - I do have ADHD haha, I think most musicians do (I’m diagnosed anyway) 😂 it’s what makes us good at listening to and playing music, spotting the intricacies because they’re so distracting 😅

    Your melody is rytoj rytoj part... meaning "tomorrow I promise you I will love u"
    It will get stuck in your head. Listen to it without getting caught in the edm part :) but really good review overall
