What is this? Instant gratification complaints? The beginning is very magical and when Ana has to deliver she DELIVERS. It's honestly quite beautiful when you open up to it

Why are you all so impatient? What is wrong with having that beautiful introduction? If viewers cant appreciate beauty then so be it.

Deban looking at the camera in crushed boredom cracked me up 😂

This is my number one right now it’s amazing! With a revamp and the correct staging. Like an amazing staging this CAN easily do what Macedonia did last year. EASSSILYYY. They just need to pump up that first verse.

She have a VOICE....!!! Good luck Slovenia....!! Vodaaaa....wateeeeer!! 🙌🙌🙌❤❤❤

THIS IS BANGER!!! QUALITY ESC SONG!! APPROPIATE! DECENT!!! UNIQUE!! THATS IMPORATNT!!! SOMETHING SPECIAL!!! THAT BRINGS FRESH AIR

It will stay in Slovene, and also get a revamp - probably shorter first verse

VOOOOOOOOOODKAAAAAAA

She needs to sing in Slovenian for sure in Netherlands and revamp the song to grab us faster and to amp up instrumentation...The chorus has to come in faster and the instrumentation with the water falling sound has to be more prominent...there is potential...

She got a great voice and somehow she reminds me “Kruna”.

The song is mesmerising! It builds slowly... I'm surprised you guys didn't feel that!!!

Great job sLOVEnia... amazing song and a incredible voice... a song for the final ....she is singing about loosing a child ...

Thank you! Greetings from Slovenia!🎶🥂😉

as a Slovene I was emotionally engaged from the very beginning and it got even better. (also lyric-wise) The lyric is really poetry - like Deban said!! I loved Ana Soklič's vocal from before (I knew what to expect and sort of started enjoying before she even started). Ballads are often boring and I get how this might seem boring in some contexts (not knowing the language is impractical but it's a google translate era and that's fun) but then again spectacles in chains are also boring ... I get soooooooooooo tired. I remember the year when Anouk -Birds was my lone favourite and she was the only one without some tiresome spectacle that was supposed to make me feel things instantly. In Ana's case I feel the flow of the song-it's not too much and it's not too little. I'm just wowed everytime. I love it, but I think I'll love however they change it tbh if they do.

As a Slovene I agree - the song takes too long to become "interesting," but Ana said in an intrrview that they're working on a revamp, though they don't have much time, so we'll see what happens. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that whatever they come up with will be good. Unfortunately, it'll be hard to qualify out of our semi-final because of which countries are in it. 😕

After listening to this a few times, I’ve suddenly come to realise just why I love this chorus. Remember in 2017, a certain singer from Iceland called Svala ended up representing Iceland with a song called ‘Paper’? Well the chorus in ‘Voda’ is reminiscent of the soaring chorus that was in ‘Paper’. And I loved ‘Paper’.

The chorus it's INSANELY GOOD. The first part it's a little long, I hope the revamp let her to fix the little issues. Her voice is ♥️

1. SLovEnia ❤️ 🇸🇮 winning song!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SONG! The emotion, the melody, the armosphere..... it all works for me. I don’t need a banger or a bop to get my attention (although at this point there are far too many ballads), but this is how it should be done. She takes it not to the next level, but in to the stratosphere! After she hit that high note, NASA reported finding a load of wigs on Mars! She definitely scalped me anyway.... Definitely needs a revamp in terms of getting things rolling at the beginning, but the rest is (as Deban says) “pure poetry”

I love it. My top 3 right now are Norway, Slovenia and Italy ❣️💞❣️💞❣️

She said that she's going to go back and revamp it with the composer. I really hope they shorten or do something with the verses because it kinda gets boring. That said, it's the biggest grower for me so far. Listened to it once and wasn't in love, 3- 4 listens and I loved it.

One of the best songs of 2020. Just get in touch with your soul to understand it.

Great reviews guys this song has a real mezmur attic feel about it the vocalist is absolutely beautiful and I really see with a little nip and tuck a little bit of a revamp going on this song could really take off and this could go where North Macedonia went last year good luck in the first semi-final this is one I really like

Lyrics Let's move on To a new era Let's run away from here Far away Let's never stop Anywhere This night will be long You can hear my mind pounding This unrest All this noise Let them say what they want As a nomad you know That words to actions is the longest road Water During the storm, I lay inside you until the end Water rushing But it cannot break inside us But it cannot break inside us Let's drive away Drive the other way Away from the lights From beliefs There is a broken chair Standing Waiting for someone Waiting for a child Water During the storm, I lay inside you until the end Water rushing But it cannot break inside us But it cannot break inside us

LMFAO THAT THUMBAIL KILL ME SO HARD

Really Beautiful, but she has to enter the first chorus before and DO NOT translate it! She said she still hasn't decided on the language.

It is honestly beautiful, I liked the waterfall moments both the music and the wiwi graphics :)) I am waiting for Poland's review. Alicja was chosen on Sunday.

Guys I love u sm, you always make my day, greetings from Poland 🇵🇱

Pretty ballad. Nothing more.

Potentially Slovenia's best ever

Debon is my spirit animal. His reactions are everything!!!!!!!!!

I'm from Slovenia 😁😁😁😁😁😁

Deban got new hairstyle. Much better! 👍

The chorus is really powerful but she needs to get there sooner, before people go for a toilet break!

Voda

It is poetry. I think noone would mind if thins wins ESC2020 (which it won't) but it could also come in last.

Left guy: i think voda means water Right guy: here we have some vOdA I am solvenia by the way

Hi, thanks for your reaction! here is the English translation: Unofficial Lyrics in English: [Verse 1] We move on, into a new time, we run away, far from here, we shoudn't stop, nowhere, the night will be long. You hear when my mind beats, this unrest, all this sound. [Pre-Chorus] Let them say anything, you as a nomad really know, that from words to action, the way is the longest. [Chorus] Water, as i lay down in the storm I'm in you till the end. The water is racing, but it can't go into us, but it can't go into us. [Verse 2] We still go on, in a different direction, so I can convince the lights. There's a ripped chair, standing, waiting for someone, waiting for a child. [Chorus] Water, as i lay down in the storm I'm in you till the end. Water, but it can't go into us, but it can't go into us.

you drink it the music is playing it :D hahaha funny you are guys :D

Slayvenia is back

Can you react to the new version of the song Voda? 💦I think that it is so much better than previous. I am so sad that the Eurovisiov is cancelled😢 but I think the song would have really good chance to get a lot of points. What do you think?

It's a fine ballad with a good voice. Nothing more. In a Bloodbath that is first semi, I don't see this qualifying.

kings of thumbnails

it means water

Voda=Water

❤️❤️❤️

This really reminds me of albania 2019. It will get through but will not get a high score in the final.

Please react to our Alicja with Empires ❤️🔥 Can't wait to hear your opinion!

Can't wait to see what Israel and Malta bring.

To be honest, Voda is like a grownup version of Vetra

My favourite is a good old still water. Dont get all the hype around sparkling water, I find it very unenjoyable

At least she is better than the other candidate from slovenia Ben Dolic

When is the reaction to Poland?❤️🇵🇱👑

Yes. Voda means water.

A Lucy Jones style revamp will do this wonders

That thumbnail tho ;D

3:29 😂😂😂😂😂😂

As a slovene. Can confirm that the song does not ring to deeply as a native speaker as well. Do not like her change to English in 2021. But I find this a common problem for slovenia and generally in smaller nations. On one side they are too afraid to go on with their local language. On the other side they try too hard to make the language too high Slovene. As tiny as this nation is there are pretty strong dialects (8 quite distinct dialect groups) so there exists a main "neutral" high dialect. Somewhat based on the mid but with a mix of other dialects. Basically it broadens the words in more sounds that you will ever hear a native speaker use. But such that each dialect understands. Imagine "queens english". But this also explains why most slovenians feel a bit...odd with slovenian in pop songs. For some reason the artists are obsessed with singing in neutral High Slovene. Would be like English pop songs would be mostly in Queens English. a bit...odd. I imagine the other tiny nations have a similar problem.

I ADOOOORRRREEEE everything about this... except for that first verse................................ litteraly

The chorus is pretty but the rest is just a total borefest.

It will draw former yugoslav countries in juries and televotes

Destiny's destiny :D

Are you going to make a reaction video about Polish entry?

Hiiiii! :)

Hey guys, why don't you react to Poland! Can't wait ^-^

I can't help but sing Vodka

In a nutshell, the chorus only has two notes, and that’s not enough to compensate for the static verses.

Hey guys, you gotta finally check out Poland's NF! All three songs were dope, well at least if you compare them to a whole bunch of mediocre songs you've already reacted to.

😂

I think it's good but something is missing, for me Gaja deserved to win

Твои слова водица, так не годится

Lol

My 2nd time and its good but still so f...... boring

I don't feel it. The staging could lift it, but good staging can't save a song from being boring half of the time.

The woman can sing but the song takes too long to make an impact, it needs a revamp

Well ... I understand Slovene because I live there for almost 5 years and the song is kinda boring (most of it) but I dig the chorus and the voice so you right them jury will love it not sure about the voters haha European have very unpredictable music taste .

And why SHOUTING so much?! You tell me...

the cheap videoclip realness is here yaaas

Water of life was great This song not so much

Good voice, but why is it a thing now to scream random two-syllable nouns on a melody that goes "fourth --> third"? "Voda"... "Paper"...

I'm slovenian

No no no

Dull, i think this will challenge Albania for the biggest flop song of the year. She can sing so give her a killer song.

My least favorite song so far.

The song is boring

I am from Slovenia and our song for Eurosong is booooooring. We need a song to light some fire not shut it down.

Bilive me you dont want to know slovenian ker ti ne predlagam

The song is boring in my opinion and Slovenia will not be in the finals
