    I am OBSESSED with this song. "Overthinking" be damned, this is just the right amount of analysis we need for a song oozing with symbolism. I swear, Luke Black really just wrote a song specifically for me and injected it right into my veins. Outstanding song and I hope this gets the recognition it deserves in Liverpool.

    Literal or metaphorical sleep as an escape from suffering seems to be a theme this year. I can think of Serbia, Latvia, and Spain, three very different songs that treat the topic from different perspectives. A lovely trilogy.

    As a covid gamer, definitely relate a lot to this, regressing to comfort in a world that doesn't exist and where tasks are given to you. Perhaps it's a chance encounter with my first Eurovision (especially seeing the age of some of the contestants and feeling wild that some are young 20's or even teens!).
    Much respect for it and I actually really enjoy it.

    Our national broadcaster should include English translation of song titles for national selection so people can immediately know what title means. "Samo mi se spava" many people translate by online translator incorrectly as "I am just sleepy". That has much less impact than "I just want to sleep forever"

    • @hazy-skies2630

      Like "spava" must be sleep, but I don't get what the words "samo" "mi" and "se" mean when sees a single.

    • @tead5675
      @tead5675 Год назад +17

      ​​@@hazy-skies2630 you can't translate them separately. "Samo" is "just". Me=to me, se=untranslatable, similar to"myself" but not with that meaning in this context, spava=sleep, but the verb construction of Luke's sentence doesn't correspond to the English one ( I just wanna sleep, I feel like sleeping all the time) and doesn't exist in English.

    • @colinafobe2152
      @colinafobe2152 Год назад +18

      @@hazy-skies2630 Serbian grammar doesn't always literally correspondent to English one. samo mi se ... can be translated as "I just want to"... then add verb /sleep, eat, live, fight, sing (spava, jede, živi, bori, peva) and you get "verb is making me only want to do that" there is alternative way to say the say, as Luke is singing "želim zauvek da spavam" which literally means "I want just forever to sleep". Serbian is like a Yoda speaks, it can be used backwards to make a point. that is why google translate fails, and they should put proper translation to avoid confusion. where you from?

      This is an interesting question. The map isn't supposed to be accurate and up-to-date. If it were just a current map then this could be the intro to ANY Eurovision channel. But using an old map is supposed to be a nod to the idea of the "old world," and an indication that we're coming at these songs more from an historical and academic perspective rather than with deep contemporary knowledge. Our first big opening was a microphone bursting through a Renaissance map of Europe, and we like that idea of new pop music colliding with old traditions and customs.
