Each day until May 9, I will (hopefully) be posting my review of all the entries, so you can expect what's coming up from them. I have decided to do a review of each country in alphabetical order by song name, and Serbia is fifth.
Country: Serbia
Capital: Belgrade
Local Time for ESC: 21:00
Artist: Nina
Song: Caroban
In my own words, this song is about: I'm not good with finding the meaning of these songs, especially those not in English. But since I have heard the English version, I'll go with this: She met a guy and he does things she likes and he's a keeper. Or something like that.
Thoughts: This song is ma-gi-cal. I would listen to this about 3-4 times a day, but that's it, but this is a good song to listen to if you like the 60s (with the dresses and all that from the national final). Well done, Serbia. You got me with that shoe song and an ode to the balkans, you did it again with a magical song. (By the way, Serbia's song at the Junior Contest in 2010 had a similar title called "Carobna Noc" but it's a ballad)
Verdict: Final, and probably a top 20 finish, or top 15 depending on how many Bosnians and/or Croatians will vote for it (think neighbor voting)
To all the Serbians out there, the family affair is over and Kristina Kovac (the author of the song) won over her dad and sister.
