Beacuse a lot of Croatians live in Germany , Ireland , Great Britain , Switzerland , Austria , Italy , Skandinavian countries , Belgium , USA , Canada , Brazil , Argentina , Chile, Peru , Australia etc. They leave your homes beacause of our government who cares about more for money than young peoples in my country , the government was so crazy and they have no smart ideas
He's got the whole world talking and now Croatia are THIRD in the odds! Every day he edges Croatia closer and closer to a Eurovision win! I really hope he will be selected!
I hope he wins the whole thing. He’s a genuine and decent guy with a fantastic song. The staging and live performance is the final hurdle plus HRT. Not hormone therapy to all the non Eurovision viewers. The little riverdance at the end I hope goes on stage 🥇🥇🥇🕺
This is NOT a party song. For us Croatians, it brings up a lot of sadness and anger because it shows how regular people are forced to leave their country, family and friends in search of a better life because the politics and corruption of our country is making it close to impossible to have a respectable life in most places here. We have lost friends, family members, loved ones over this... whole generations of people feel like ghosts living isolated in foreign lands and families separated. This is a painful song for us, and we relate to it very deeply.
We Armenians know this problem very well.Because our brothers and sisters living in Artsakh had to go in their own houses because some awfull people not allow them to live their.So we lost our land and our sisters lost their homes,friends,some of them sold their cows to get some money for living.And some Armenians imigrat too because of this political and economic situation and this is so awfull and sad.I understand you my brother we have to stay strong and work for the better future and live in our countries.❤❤❤❤Thank you for this meaningfull song that's so familiar🇦🇲🇭🇷🤗🤗🤗
As a Greek I can feel the sadness. This is a very common theme for many Greeks that have fled the country the past 20-15 years due to the economic and social meltdown. And yet, I'd say it's a positive song, and a very powerful one. At least that's how I perceive it.
Video tells a story, and it seems you kind of, missed it. It is his last day, in one of the first sentences he says he is leaving with a first light, everyone is normal (as you noticed) but he is excited and anxious as day passes. Techno part is also very well done, it builds a big anxiety, almost a trance like state, and after it is night and farewell party is almost over. The outro is early dawn, he is waiting for a ferry.
I wish the song could incorporate that piano at the end and the performance could have a lighting change that signifies that he's leaving his homeland. Croatia has to see how popular this is and realize they could win with Baby Lasagna.
@@antonela0821I feel you, we have the same problem in Poland (but we couldn't vote for our representatives at all this year) so now I'm hoping for you guys, maybe you'll get lucky 🤞
@@blackone2826 you couldn't vote? That's seriously even worse than Dora 😂. I hope that our jury won't even think twice about Baby Lasagna, because they should see for themselves that we're gonner if he won't win

The music video is perfect when you consider that the lyrics of the song are about young Croatians from the country LEAVING the countryside of Croatia to go to the city. The ending is showing someone going across sea to another country. The song is talking about how Croatia is going so downhill that it's very people are turning on it and selling out to the West!
The video is perfection. The women who created it and whoever else was in her team is amazing! The song is also very catchy. He has my vote! Just watched the performance too, he's good! I want him to bring the cat!
This is the only one among this year's most hyped songs (Belgium, Italy, Poland, Slovenia, Ukraine, France) where I actually *DO* get the hype, so I'm all for it! 😅 (It actually sounds a bit like a Finnish industrial metal band, so no wonder I love it as a Finn 😉)
It was the very same for Finland last year! In fact, I see a lot of "Finland last year" in this. I don't necessarily mean the song sounding similiar, but there just is something that gives me same kind of vibes about the whole thing. So, as a finnish Käärijä fan that really likes this song also, I wish all the best for you guys in the competition 😊 I know Baby lasagna is not chosen to be the representative yet, and everything can still happen and as we all know, you never know how things go. But enjoy the hype! 😁
7:33 He's not coming back, but leaving with "the first light"... No matter how exciting the music sounds, the song is actually sad. We Croatians are leaving our home, our tradition, our food, our families and friends to become like those "city boys" because there's nothing left for us young people in Croatia. The 'Rim tim tagi dim' in the song actually hints at our traditional folk music that we dance to, and this in the video is actually the last evening before leaving everything behind - forever. Don't get me wrong, I love jumping and dancing to this song, but I'm just explaining the actual kinda dark connotation about it
For Someone like me who left Croatia in 1994 forever, this felt very emotional and strangely familiar... except there was no big party just a silent ride to the airport and a final look through the plane window as a goodbye, this April it will be 30 years living in UK and I still have not been back! the answer to that is in an old Croatian song : " vrati se ljeto, vrati se zima , vrati se onaj ko nekog ima... -//- ja se ne mogu vratiti, na stara vrata kucati, yer nema nikog da otvori!
If he wins DORA and is able to transfer his message to the stage (thoughtful staging as Alesia would say) this could be a potential winner. It's a very rich song musically and well-produced. It keeps you excited somehow. The juries will have to admit this is a good song. The public will love it. In a few days......
the thing about the song not even being in the original lineup is exactly the same scenario when Maruv won Vidbir, Maruv was a filler when Tayanna pulled out
@@boaconstrictor3754 they are music group from Ukraine. In 2019 in their national selection Vidbir they won, but seems like they werent an option until one of the contestants withdrew just like Zsa Zsa and baby Lazagna at this years Dora. (Unfortunately Ukraine that year withdrew from Eurovision, the broadcast had problems with the group Maruv)
La chanson parle du départ d'un jeune de la maison parentale d'une zone agraire et de petites communautés vers une grande ville ou un autre pays pour toujours à la recherche d'un avenir et d'opportunités meilleurs. La vidéo montre la dernière soirée d'adieu avec la famille, les amis et les voisins. Il y a aussi des animaux avec lesquels on a grandi à la campagne. Baby Lasagna nous a raconté d'une manière un peu drôle la situation difficile et stressante de la vie lorsqu'on quitte tout ce qu'on a connu toute sa vie avec une valise à la main et qu'on part vers l'inconnu.
The amount of "Zagreb 2025" I saw today is insane, I mean - cool you're happy about your (possible) entry guys but it's STILL February, we have 17 songs left and you don't wanna pull off a Brividi in the end don't ya? ❤
As Losco6 wrote, we Croats do very poorly at ESC (deservedly so, because we usually send awful songs). Now we finally have one song that can fight for the top and we're enjoying it while we can... because we'll probably fall low again next year, like all the previous years. We know this is a chance we won't have for a long time and we feel we are going all-in this year. It's now or never for Croatia! 😉
story behind song is that young people from Croatia going from home to work in foreigner country's to make money for living, that's why he sad on start "i'm big boy now" he is old enough to go on path where lots of young was before him, and then he say i sold my cow, he make money from selling cow to have enough money to start better life in other country and buy ticket for boat to leave, he make party for his village to dance with them for last time because its best way to cover his sadness because he is leaving his loving village and loving people behind. On official video you can see him how he is going away and waiting for boat thats why end of song have melancholy piano at the end of video and thats why he have that suitcase on stage you mention on your video because he leaving away, i hope i explain you whats song is about, in short: he is leaving his village and he making last party for loving people from his village for last time....also i want to add THIS WAS HIS FIRST PERFOMANCE EVER, he made song in his badroom and now is on Eurosong and he win Dora as back up because one singer give up so iconic cheers from croatia 👋🏼🇭🇷
I do not think the song and video aim at humour at all. It is all very sad when people have to leave their beloved country to make a decent living in other lands. The hardship is real … Beautiful song and video. You can feel the anguish …
When I first heard it, I thought it was a great tune, but listening to it, it hits just how heartbreaking it is. I'm fortunate to never have had to leave my home country. It's an extremely powerful piece.
the song is about a work imigration( a lot of Croatian young people are leaving country)...at the end hes probably going to Ireland for work...now listen the song in that conotation.
not theatrical, it is a sad song. Croatial lost 1m young people due to bad demographic policies. He is, one young boy, leaving for better life. It is almost a necessity nowdays and most of his friends already left, that's why most of video he is shown with elders.
I mean Croatia lost over 200,000 people due to ethnic cleansing they enacted, on top of that 1,000,000 due to brain drain before and especially after joining the EU.
@@Marios_Gr You're delusional,what does a stage name gotta do with song meanings?Through the song dude is talking abt leaving his hometown and how anxious he is while going in a new place
I think he will be a big flop, he cannot sing live. Nobody ever saw him performing. So this all bu@@@t about this song is not relevant! :) And it - he is not singing in his native language ( I think is Serbian or Croatian). Jury does not like this.
@@lepdra Ti bese ono hejtovao Finsku prosle godine trpajuci im da je plagijat? Pa ovaj vas niski bez glasa je kopirao sve onda! Ajde mani me licemernosti.
This song theme is about Croatians leaving Croatia for search of a better life and him loosing friends in his small town.

@@romaricklinguer8365 international jury has been absolutely horrendous this year.....
@@Rash23215 no sorry
As an immigrant this song slaps me so bad. This song is rather sad than funny.
Even though some of the lyrics are funny, the song as a whole has a serious vibe - about life changing whether we like it or not.
The end is about him “ leaving with the first light ..” as he sings in the song .
"Rim tim tagi dim" is basically the rhythm of one of the most known traditional Croatian folk dances from the region of Istra called Istarski balun.
I hope he wins the whole thing. He’s a genuine and decent guy with a fantastic song.
The staging and live performance is the final hurdle plus HRT. Not hormone therapy to all the non Eurovision viewers.
