    He is 18, at an art high school, doing theater, with an amazing voice and almost no support from the Romanian organizers (TVR, the national state television). Because...budget , 0 professionalism and complete lack of interest. So he did everything himself, pesonal tastes are subjective and debatable. Even the official video was produced and directed by him, with no financing. So what are we talking about, what production value?! Yes, the staging can and should be improved (for his own good, I hope he manages to convince TVR to act professionally). But I don't get all the negativity towards this entry, the song is not bad, the overall composition pretty good and quite catchy even though we have no clue what he's singing about, and his voice is amazing. Cheap nudity, "familiy friendly" show. But of course, we are all pudics and moralists now. I did not see these strong reactions last year for Spain, Romania, or this year's Poland. Humans and hypocrisy, we make the perfect symbiosis!

The romanian eurovion staff were super unprofessional and did a shitty lighting and backround video aldo theodor had told them any times what he wanted. those stairs should of been a throne and many other things. when he was presented the lighting stagind and backround , it was shown to him an hour before the moment starded. and funny story theodor actually went to the staff by himself nad just did the backgorund and lighting HIMSELF the best he could in matters of minutes :)). He didnt have much oportunity he made the best with what he could. HE HAS BIG PLANS FOR LIVERPOOL AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO SEE WHAT HE HAS PLANNED !!

      Știm cu toții cum este TVR-ul însă nu ei le-au îmbrăcat așa pe fete, nu i-au dezbrăcat ei pe scenă, etc. Nu s-a uitat nimeni la modelul scaunelor. Asta e, a încercat ceva, nu a funcționat, să-și învețe lecția și să-și facă bine temele pentru ce va urma. E clar că trebuie ceva minimalist și potrivit vârstei lui. Contează foarte mult și conexiunea cu publicul, străinii nu gustă deloc declarațiile "am venit ca să câștig".

Așa au spus și cei de la The Humans, că pe ei nu îi interesează ce spun oamenii despre actul lor artistic, uitând că pentru acei oameni cântă și acei oameni vor vota. Așa că au păstrat manechinele pe scenă char dacă majoritatea au spus că nu este bine. Nu cred că renunțarea la niște manechine sau la niște dansatoare dezbrăcate înseamnă sacrificarea actului artistic. Dacă publicul spune că melodia are un impact mult mai mare asupra lor într-un cadru minimalist de ce să te sabotezi singur? Nu asta contează, impactul și emoția transmisă? Un alt aspect este că el se duce la acest concurs să reprezinte Romania, totul va fi plătit din banii românilor. Când îți sponsorizezi singur un spectacol poți spune că nu te interesează ce spune publicul și îți e indiferent dacă vinzi 2 bilete sau 500, îți asumi pe banii tăi.

    I don’t keep up with Eurovision much these days. But this was one of the first songs from the 2023 edition that really caught my attention very recently.
    I was doing some chores, so I played this in the background. And I remembered the moment the dude began with a soft-spoken buildup, to belting out with a rough edge, made me stop what I was doing completely.
    Personally the staging was average To me. But this has got such a catchy hook to it. And I don’t even know a lick of Romanian.

Maybe if there was not the naked women you wouldn't interested in this performance. That is a big problem, because the show (symbolic only a competition) is about the singing/musical performance, and the things like erotic women is a strategy to attire some categories of public. Maybe this could have a success for instant for the show only but this can damage the represented country in the long period of time.

    Ea ma bagă-n-trun film de mă simt iar copil - She brings me into a movie, I feel like a child
    Mă învârt gen vinyl - I spin around like a vinyl
    Că eu vreau să joc în filmul ei - Cause I want to act in her movie
    -
    Oricât stau, oricât dau - How much I stay, how much I give
    Oricât vreau, oricât beau - How much I want, how much I drink
    Orice top, orice toc - With any top, any heel
    Orice alții vorbeau - Whatever the others talked
    Mie tot nu-mi păsa - I still didn't care
    O alegeam și din mii de femei - I would've chosen her out of thousands of women
    -
    Că eu număr, ea se-ascunde - Cause I count, she hides
    Eu o sun, ea nu raspunde - I call her, she doesn't answer
    Meci de box cu-atâtea runde - A boxing match with dozens of rounds
    Și ca pe un inel - And just like a ring
    -
    Mă joacă pe degete - She plays me on her fingers
    Am încredere - I believe in her
    Da' minte așa frumos - But she lies so beautifully
    Mă-ntoarce pe dos - She turns me upside-down
    Vorbește murdar - Cause she talks dirty
    Da' când vrea ea doar - But only when she wants
    Minte așa-ușor - Lies so easily
    Lasă patul gol - Leaves the bed empty
    Pe degete - On her fingers
    Am încredere - I believe in her
    Da' minte așa frumos - But she lies so beautifully
    Mă-ntoarce pe dos - She turns me upside-down
    Vorbește murdar - Talks dirty
    Da' când vrea ea doar - But only when she wants
    Minte așa-ușor - Lies so easily
    Lasă patul gol - Leaves the bed empty
    -
    Don't you now, don't you now
    Don't you just wanna sit right next to me
    (With your favorite dress on the floor and your dreams)
    The scent of mistake just reminds you of me
    And now all of your demons keep screaming my name
    Take a little sip of venom now
    Say you love me
    Say you want me now
    Fool me all over again baby
    Lost in your eyes
    Nights I crave the touch of you
    Wondering just what you do
    I'm begging you, I'm on my knees
    Take your clothes off
    Step on me
    -
    And I'm lost in your bedsheets
    Tryna get closer
    With marks on my neck and your makeup all over
    Photos of us
    They remind me, I still love you
    What's a king without a queen
    What's another way to get me sober
    -
    De-ge-te, de ce te temi, spune-mi repede - DGT, why are you scared, tell me quickly
    Mi-ai alergat prin cap pe toate pernele - You rushed through my head on all of my pillows
    De-ge-te, de ce nu vezi că mi-e sete de - DGT, why can't you see that i'm thirsty for
    Otrava ei - Her poison
    -
    Off and on
    Like a radio song (What?)
    Messing me around (Uh)
    Turning upside down (Yeah)
    Dirty talking me
    Everyday's a game (Everyday's a game)
    Lets me sleep alone
    She plays me like oh
    -
    Am încredere - I believe in her
    Da' minte așa frumos - But she lies so beautifully
    Mă-ntoarce pe dos - She turns me upside-down
    Că vorbește murdar - Cause she talks dirty
    Da' când vrea ea doar - But only when she wants
    Minte așa-ușor - Lies so easily
    Lasă patul gol - Leaves the bed empty
    Pe degete - On her fingers
    Am încredere - I believe in her
    Da' minte așa frumos - But she lies so beautifully
    Mă-ntoarce pe dos - She turns me upside-down
    Vorbește murdar - Talks dirty
    Da' când vrea ea doar - But only when she wants
    Minte așa-ușor - Lies so easily
    Laѕă pаtul gol - Leаves the bed empty
    -
    (Pe degete) - (On her fingerѕ)
