      He is the best thus far in Eurovision! Do not worry if he doesn't win or make it to the finals. Eurovision has gone down the tubes lately. Your singer is by far the best! 😊

    • @nikita2174

      As someone who really loved Queen of Kings last year (my #1) I’m so glad to hear that someone from Norway likes this piece! Definitely an excellent vocal performance just like that was last year and I love the composition of the song. Very well done!!!

    • @valeriagreen4819
      @valeriagreen4819 Před 10 dny +4

      I think it received bad reviews from people with limited interests and those who value form over substance.
      A great song and a skilled performer don’t need a flashy show and dancing. He stole my heart from the first notes 💙

    I hope Dons will hear this. You should hear his live performance in Latvian Music Awards where he performed this song in Latvian, which, from my point of view, showed his vocal skills even better.

    I totally LOVE this. A tinge of Ochman, Rag n Bone Man, I want this as a top 3. He is captivating, the staging is perfect here. His vocals make me drool. He looks perfect for the song. The video is jaw dropping too. He needs nothing else but his presence and vocals. Could win for sure.

    @JackPicko91 Před 2 měsíci +11

    I adore Hollow. It's so brilliant, I just worry it won't get through because Latvia don't have any real allies and with no juries in the semi anymore, I am concerned. Hopefully I'm proven wrong.

    @raivopelcis551 Před 2 měsíci +17

    Yaaaay, my country :)
    I knew you'll like it, I was patiently waiting for your reaction! He's a professional singer in my country, one of the most popular ones. He is very good live vocalist as you could hear, and he's very experienced as well! He also wrote this song in Spain with some friends, he's also a songwriter for most of his songs.
    And he's also experienced in making the right live performances and since we don't have much budget, he was going minimal here so he can plan more for big stage.
    And I'm not sure, but it's possible that he possibly could revamp and improve this song even more, but that's only my assumption.
    But yes, I loved your reaction, thank you from Latvia!🇱🇻 after 7 years in row we can maybe qualify to final again...I hope so at least!

    Whole song is so refreshing and beautiful and so well sung. This artist is the one I didn't know we need. Really happy and proud for him for being such well mannered on and of the stage. Beautiful voice, beautiful personality. My top 3 definitely. I will remember him when this is over.

    I read somewhere he lived in the US for some time.That's why he has that American pronunciation I think.As far as vocals he is my most favorite.He doesn't need extra flash or dance.It's enough the staging , the voice.He understands what he is singing about.

    When he sang this song in the national semi-final everyone said there was no more intrigue in the competition, He was a sure winner.

    I just hope he will somehow make it to the final
    The juries will boost it close if not in top 10
