This song and performance aged like fine wine and would probably be the winner nowadays. Absolutely mind blowing that she wasn’t top five. Robbed queen
Aminata was PERFECT last night. Original and innovative song, elegant and beautiful performance. I felt in love with her and I'm happy for Latvia, you have to be proud of what she has done. I'm waiting to hear more songs from her.
Felipe Welchz Check out at Spotify or iTunes! Her debt album "Inner Voice" is reaaly enjoyable - contemporary arrangement and great sound. And of course, music and lyrics by herselve!!! Love it! :)
Olga Ivanova It won but it wasn't the best. And I'm Latvian saying that. Brainstorm in 2000, Walters and Kazha in 2005 and of course Aminata was WAAY better in my opinion. :)
This is the best song in the history of Eurovision. This is a musical masterpiece. A fantastically built atmosphere and an explosion of power with the chorus and a voice breaking glass. Greetings to Latvia from Poland.
Almost a year later and I'm still so pissed she didn't win like that voice is one in a billion ??? I remember watching this for the first time during the semi final and when she started I was like hm okay but then when she broke into the chorus my mouth fell open she had such rage and sang so perfect it's sad Latvia is so small and overlooked Aminata killed it and truly deserved to win! (But she's a winner in my heart)
If she would have been from Sweden, she woud have wipped the floor with more than 300 points and win it all. it makes me so sad cause this was a masterpiece!
Still one of my favourite ESC song ever. Not to mention the interpretation, Aminata’s voice and the whole performance… it gives my goosebumps everytime I watch it
This song is living proof that the best song rarely wins eurovision. It's not a song competition, seems more like a popularity contest between neighbouring countries. Too bad this wasn't at least in the top 3, such an underestimated song and artists. very disappointed that this didn't win.
@@4bbi3 How do you know that exactly? I mean where it was showed she was second by the jury? I watched the Grand Final and she came sixth. Where is the seperate televoting?
Guys it's 2023, and i'm still listening this MASTERPIECE 😍👏. ROBBED QUEEN in Eurovision 2015 and Supernova 2022👑👸😭. But Poland gave you 10 points in ESC, Aminata, and I'm proud of it 🇵🇱❤️🇱🇻
When I first heard this unique, original, sensational song 2 months ago, I loved it. When I saw that performance though... I STARTED WORSHIPING HER. O_O
THE FACT that this is 7 years old but still a bop and THE AUDACITY that it did not win the contest makes me wanna rub my head against the wall. Thank you.
Damn, 2015 was SUCH A STRONG YEAR! Belgium, Estonia, Italy, Sweden, Russia, Israel, Georgia, Latvia, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, Serbia, Slovenia, Azerbaijan, Switzerland, HELL EVEN MONTENEGRO! Any of these would have been a contender in other years...absolutely stunning performance from Aminata...her vocals...Jesus... Imagine Latvia winning with "that song" in 2002 and now compare it to this... And this did not even get top 5....That's how strong 2015 was!
4th January 2022: The entries of the Supernova 2022 are out (Latvian national selection) among all the entries she returns with a spectacular song. Animata we are waiting for you in Turin.❤️
May 2015....Husband screaming from the living room"your country gonna perform now(i am latvian living abroad).I am laughing from another room"sorry not coming to watch, wasting 3 minutes. ( because of all previous eurovision entries from latvia,very average))...20 seconds later i was by that TV chocking on my tea..because AMINATA did something I would never expect,I lOVED the song.and hoped she would at least make it to top 3 !
Говорю от всех адекватных не подкупленных людей мира без всякого псевдо патриотизма я скажу вам, это самое сильное выступление и Самая Прекрасная Неординарная Песня и Девочка на этом конкурсе! the most beautiful girl and Unconventional song in this competition!
The strength in her voice and performance is beyond amazing. I keep coming back to hear the power. This is definitely tied for my win of the year. Latvia should be so proud
Great Job Aminata, my favorite this night. And I think she is the only one who composed a music and wrote the lyrics for herself. You also have to take on account that Latvia had't passed semifinals last 4 years, and she is the highest from the countries that weren't favorites.
geminix365 Latvia, Belgium and Israel were stunning that night!!!! And these three countries's past records weren't good, so 2015 is really the year of these three, by giving impressive performance and such a good try :)
2022 and I still don't get it how this did not WIN? Musically, technically, artistically and emotionally best performance from Latvia ever, and to be honest in Eurovision ever...
Mine too. But I need to say Latvia is constantly underrated. I also love 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2023. Aminata overshadows them all with ease though.
I'm from France. This is by far the best song and performance. Really Deserved to win. Really happy to have discovered this incredible artist ! La chair de poule!
I totaly agree with all you said. She evokes an afro and sublimated Björk. The choice of the artist, the song, the dress, the ligths, every thing was tasteful and for now it s the feeling i will keep in my mind from Latvia.
