Some context for everyone: "čiūto tūto" (chootoh tootoh) is a non-translateable phrase common in Lithuanian folk songs. Repeating it helps you to hear your heart and find your inner voice.
As an expert in Lithuanian folklore :D, I would like to add on to this :):
"Many people are struggling translating words ČIŪTO TŪTO. Yeah, because it's impossible :D. Don't worry, we, as Lithuanians, don't know the true meaning. BUT not understanding smth with your mind doesn't mean you can't feel it with your heart and intuition :).
What we know for sure is that these words are definitely not without a substance. The exact opposite - it is believed that these words (called refrains) have very deep meanings, but we no longer understand them because they are incredibly ancient, older than our modern language.
Lithuanian folk songs and multipart songs have hundreds of different refrains, like: čiūto, tūto, čiūtyta, oi lylia lylia, liūlio, laduto, ralio, tatato, ratuto, dūno, dobilio, tram tralia, etc. It's possible that some of them are linked with pagan gods, rituals and have magical meanings. Other are like onomatopoeias - imitating nature or instrument sounds. Different refrains are found in different types of songs like war songs, lullabies, wedding songs, advent songs etc., they evoke certain feelings fitting the occasion but their true meaning is still a mystery :)"
Adding an example : czcams.com/video/Wbyn61KgaqA/video.html
In the video above is a traditional Lithuanian polyphonic song and it also has an element of "čiūto". Monika Linkytė is also referring to our folkclore with her modern style amber earrings.
My interpretation is that she Linkytė refers to this vibe of Lithuanian folk songs (including polyphonic sutartinės) with the last a cappella bit :)
It's chooto- o tooto all Lithuanian comenting forgetting "o" in a middle of two words
Thank you for this comment. Knowing that adds even more depth and beauty to this song ❤
"chootoh tootoh" gets in my nerves, it sounds repetitive, for me it destroys a good song. I can not listen this beautiful song until the end only because of this chant. I do not like it!
Lately, Lithuania is sending amazing artists who represent their pop music and culture greatfully on stage. It's one of the best songs this year so far. Love ❤️ your reaction on this one.
It’s not quite The Roop but she’s got a belting voice!
I definitely agree!
I’m so proud of her for doing well!
There are many reactions to the Eurovision entries; However, the comments of such a talented and honest vocal coach is of another level, indeed: a great video to learn from you Georgina. I am so happy that you are fond of the Lithuanian entry...´Čiūto tūto´ is an ancient ritual spell- affirmation of the Lithuanian ancestors calling to come-back to your inner-self, embrace your pain body and live in harmony with your spiritual YOU (closer to nature and your soul).Thank you so much!!!!
This song is pretty perfect to me. Great portion of drama, great vocals and presence. Lithuania always have quality songs. Thanks!
Thank you I m Lithuanian so happy 😊
This is wonderful voice
In addition to what others said about this beautiful song, I would like to mention that her dress represents amber, which is Lithuanian gold 🧡🧡🧡
This is my number one so for. Incredible how deep the lyrics is, wonderful voice and effective simple stage at the same tome. Amazing.

This song is a "grower". Next to France and Spain, so far, my three favorites. Btw. love watching your reaction videos.
I loved her "This Time" entry. Still among my Top 3 of every contest I have witnessed.
She wasn't alone though 😏
I loved that song and performance - was so charming
🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹 Go Lithuania ❣️
Its my favorite i love it too Georgina!!
This and Estonia are my winners for now but i love this more.That voice,its perfect
I'm really loving the song!
Well done, braliukas down south!
Monika is my absolute favourite this year! 🧡🧡🧡
Ciūto-tuto is our folkloric motive that was used in Lithuanian folklor songs and
Čiūto tūto,čiūto tūto...
Sėkmės!❤
I love this one it is magical ❤
Ladies and gentlemen, we will meet in Vilnius next year
A beautiful song, good voice, and meaningful lyrics. I hope it goes through.
Good luck Lithuania.
❤️ love your channel
Every year I look forward to your reaction to the Lithuanian Eurovision song 🙂🇱🇹💯😉
She is amazing!!! 😍🚀
Yass Lithuania
Currently my second place!!! :)
The refrain “čiūto tūto”, comes from Lithuanian folk music, from the sutartinės [multipart songs] which in 2010 were included into the UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Thank You so much for the reaction :) :) You should also see entrance of the contestant that took second place of Lithuanian selection - Rūta Mur with song So low. (Monika's dress looks like orange, but actually we call it amber's colour- the idea is amber's colour cause of amber is found in the Baltic see's shores, where do we live).
Ruta 👌👌
I think we could quietly have a really nice moment in Liverpool with Stay, as the crowd will most likely sing along with Monika which should give her song a memorability factor. She's also in the second half of semi two and the UK is voting in this one, and they tend to send a nice chunk of points to Lithuania. This song is being slept on a bit and that's a bit of a downer.
love it! 🧡
Love to watch your reactions. Thank you❤
Love your reaction ❤️
Watching your reaction videos is going to be part of my Eurovision lead-up from now on!
You changed my mind about Greece, and I've loved all of your comments on the videos I've watched so far... And now I'm watching you agree with me about Lithuania 😊
I hope you keep doing these ever year!!!
Awesome❤
You are mu favorite, and sweet vocal coach out there!! I always watch your reviews
From the very past Monika felt she is not adapting and then as she saying in the song “I took it all of myself” to “find myself within me” ❤ now she is opened, she is mature, she knows how to live happy 🎉 Monika is amazing person, behind her is deep story she in India establishes school for poor living children with the help of natives😢 which is amazing !!! Please support her ❤ Love from LTU 🇱🇹🔥
White saviour complex much
I would love to hear you covering this song :D I still listen to your cover from last year on repetition ☺
Really like her vocals and range of techniques and the Lithuanian refrain is a nice touch - makes it nice and catchy. Not sure if it's a potential winner think it should qualify for the final - I guess it will finish between 10 and 15th.
This is absolutely one of my favourites, I love it so much! But I have a slight feeling it's gonna be very underrated in the contest itself. I hope I'm wrong tho 🙏🏿
Her voice really touched my soul it was beautiful composition.
Super💛💚❤️🤩
❤❤❤i love it
I would love to hear your favourites so far once you hit the halfway point. I feel like everyone has a different favourite. Love your videos ❤
this is a masterpiece
Aww thanks from Lithuania
This is a wonderful song, it has stuck in my mind after the final
In my top list, lithuania have ranked on sixth place. This was incredible, I really love it and %100 it will qualify.
Tanks❤
Final!👏👏👏😍😊❤️
Great!
Her back vocals are from UK btw :)
Thanks🎉
Monika is very talented artist, strong and beutiful voice, and the song itself is great. One of my favorite songs, if not the favorite. ❤️👍
im so glad you liked this song! i cant wait to see what you think of Evidemment from France because i think for me its tied with Queen of Kings at the top of my list
Thank you for honest reaction. I love this hair colour on you - you look so refreshed and vibrant!
it my natural colour
Thank you very much for lovely comment, hi from France 🥰
WE LOVE Monika!!!!!!!!!
I resisted this song for so long- I adored Ruta Mur, but Monika won me over in the semi-final with her embrace of the song. a well deserved top 10 place.
Yeay!
I wouldn't be surprised if it won tbh.
This year Eurovision is stacked with many great songs. I wonder who will be in the end in top 10
That's my country!
Lithuania, France, Italy 💚💙🧡
Lowkey giving me Rebecca Lucy Taylor's (aka Self Esteem) vibes. Loving this
Okay. Im just obsessed with her.
I'd love to see your reaction to "Tattoo" by Loreen
I think it's pretty safe to assume that she will represent Sweden in this year's Eurovision.
🧡🧡🧡
Monika - -Bravi suppet 👏👏👏
Hoping you react to Australia. I know it's not live. But the mixed of genres and vocals are interesting
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I am waiting your reaction hopefully you like it 😊
For more than a decade, Lithuanian multi-voiced sutartinės have been internationally recognized and included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Čiūto tūto is from pagonism time meaning. Čiūto tūto - these are combinations of words used in Lithuanian contracts, which we cannot translate into any other language. It is said that Lithuanian goddesses used them when singing to return to themselves and thus hear their heart
Monika's song Po Dangum is something else 🫠
Beautiful song ❤ Funny enough the blonde backing singer Nicola used to sing with Anne Marie 😊
👌👍😁💕💕💕
🇱🇹♥️
Her hair still reminds me of Anne-Marie
If u are gonna react to Polish representation, Blanka-Solo, pls also react to Jann-Gladiator, there is a big controversies about him not winning the preselections. Anyway thx for your videos i love'em! :D
Oh yes I would love to hear Georgina's opinion on gladiator😍
Could you pretty please react to Lizzy McAlpine ? Ceilings, doomsday, or erase me are all great songs I'd love to see you analyze
Hope you listen to the Finnish entry really soon, gosh it’s crazy good 😅
as lithuanian i didnt like it at first i was mesmerised by competitor btw can you review RUTA MUR kinda interesting came second place, but more im listening i start to like this more somehow
Monika has a fantastic voice.
Very unlikely to stand out in the night (if it qualifies) - nothing really wrong with it though, and she has a great voice.
Its hybrid vehicle this performance. Half of it driven by traditional drama singing and half of Lithuanian continuing motives. Kind of nice mixure but could
Include more creative switching from
One motive to each other or go a tone higher at the end. This song’s
Enemy is monotony, run from
It 🎉🎉
Me 🇱🇹
I'm really waiting for your opinion on Finlands entry 🇫🇮✨
This is great 🇱🇹😎
See laul sobib filmi soundtrackiks Oleks väga hea laul filmis.
I like this song a lot aswell but Monika Liu from last year is better for me. Also Georgia are you excited that miss Loreen may make a comeback this year for Sweden
I am so unhappy that she did not get as many as jury votes I expected. 😔I do love Loreen and voted for her but that she didn't get what she and her vocals deserved to get is so upsetting and disappointing. 😭
Please react to Poland! Solo-Blanka.
Cheap silly empty song with no musical ar artistic value...
She’s got a better tone than Anne Marie
This is beautiful but it does remind me a lot of Duncan from The Netherlands 4 years ago. Pretty but too formulaic.
Почему так поздно выложили? Надо было выложить премьеру за пару лет до выхода видео, вот тогда было бы нормально.
лучше поздно, чем никогда :)
ruzzki mir?
She has such a grat vouce and this song! Amazing. Sadly she did not so well at the grand final, she had many mistakes in singing. Too bad. Such big potential!!
Best sing this year. But won’t win, ppl do not appreciate
Looking at the Lithuanian selection this year, her voice is poor in comparison :) You can react to Paulina Paukštaitytė - Let Me Think About Me. Yes, she is not a winner, but for fun . It's the same LT nacional Eurovision selection :)
Her voice is poor? Paulina got an amazing vocals but it doesn't make Monika's vocals less amazing.
The more I hear this the more I enjoy it. That costume must go, it's dreadful and takes my attention and that's not ideal for the live show only voters, it's a negative distraction. Especially the leggings & footwear.
Also, her physical movements towards the harmony vocalists need smoothed out. Staging improvement required to allow the singing to stand out.
strongly disagree
Chorus is a bit of a let down... personally i can't stand repeated line choruses it's so lazy.
Fab singer but the whole thing is one big cliche. Q'ing probably but midtable in the final at best
Exactly. I wouldn't be so sure about the final either
čiūto tūto comes from paganism
Your review is the only one that matters. I personally hate this song.
This song is so generic and nothing special.
