    I do like the song, but probably would have got my 12 if it was the proper rock version from the CD.

    Do they not want to make the final? :eek::D


    I looked up Kapla Music on youtube I think the closest too it for Eurovision was Witloof bay but this is more a traditional sound.[/QUOTE]


    What are you talking about? I entered a Klapa song in the Fantasy rounds. Luka Nizetic ft Klapa Nostalgija. What short memories people have! I feel vindicated and I think it is a fantastic move by Croatia.

    It depends on how it's done. We don't know how 'pure' HRT want to be. In the traditional style, there will be severe doubts to its success, but in more of a pop format it cannot be predicted.

    Either way, it should bring to the contest something the others probably won't have, and it cannot be claimed that they are ignoring their own culture.

    And Eurovision is partially about bringing ethnic music from various countries to a wider primetime and commercial audience. Bravo Croatia!

    Would have put this as a definite qualifier. Great choice Anne.

    That's awesome and so much better than I expected! I just love a story of unrequited love....

    Thanks so much to Cuishla, Pepsi Max, Ross, Kaveey, Roger et all for those gorgeous points :)
