Damn I wish more songs were in native languages, this is sooo much more unique then basic pop song in English

I can't understand a word she's saying but for me this is exactly what ALL CONTRIES should send to the ESC, in their own fashion of course but it sounds great, it's in their native language and it's just so well done! I love it.

We need Go_A to be representing Ukraine every year, their songs are freaking amazing

if Eurovision 2020 happened we wouldn't hear Shum

Meaning of the Song Lyrics Solovey (nightingale -a symbol of Ukrainian folk culture) is a bird which sings early in the morning. The song is about a girl who fell in love with a guy, but in old Ukraine girls couldn't choose husbands and usualy had to marry someone picked by their parents. So she fell in love, but she can see the guy only at night to hide her love from her mother. In the chorus the girl asks the bird not to sing very early, because it means that the morning is coming and she has to go back home and forget about him, but she doesn't know how to do this. The flute playing in the song is kind of imitation of the nightingale's singing.

i don't know your culture at all, but i love this way of singing, seems traditional to me, congratulations Ukraine Love from Portugal

She makes me want to learn Ukrainian Edit: Thank you so much for the likes! I'm learning Ukrainian for some weeks now and extremely enjoying my progress so much! Your language is so so beautiful! Wish I can visit there after the pandemic!

I'm here after 2021 Eurovision to bow down again to this queen and the Go_A band. I'm madly in love with them. Greetings from 🇮🇹

This song is addictive! I've replayed this like a gazillion times already! Best wishes from Indonesia 🇮🇩🙏🙌

It feels like Ukraine is so underrated. Like even in 2021 it still is playing in my head 24/7. Love from Sweden ❤️❤️❤️

a woman has a magical voice and it's not fair that she didn't win Eurovision I hope she will reappear

Katreyna Pavlenko is totally mesmerizing, no need for fancy dancing etc.. the music says it all with great presence.

This is like a Traditional song, modernized in the best way ever.

Im always a sucker for these folk tunes from this part of Europe ! Mixing it with this other music style, it had me instantly enjoying this within the 10 sec of it! Well done! Love from Norway 🇳🇴🇳🇴😁🙌🏻

Заглянула после "Шума", сравнить. Катя интересна! Этника в современной подаче это высокий уровень и вкус!

it doesn't have those mysterious, slightly menacing crazy vibes that Shum has, but damn the music and the vocals are amazing

My favourite so far. 12 points from Romania 🇷🇴👌

MY WINNER !!!!🚨🔥🔥🔥🌟 👸SHE IS THE QUEEN OF 2020 ESC!👸 12 POINTS FROM PORTUGAL!

I have no idea what they're singing about but man this song is great. Totally my jam. Love from Canada

Irish person crying here every time I listen to go_A

Кто здесь после бомбического выступления Украины на евровиденьи 2021?

The most awesome thing about this music is that it possesses UNIQUENESS and AUTHENTICITY - this is what I failed to find in other contestants’ songs!!! Go Ahead Ukraine 🇺🇦😍

I can't get a word but i like this song soooo much! It fees like a fantasy world ost!

My favorite is Ukraine in Eurovision this year, it was Ukraine last year too. I hope they win. Love from Turkey

Here's the reason that Ukraine is the only country left with a 100% qualifying streak. Hit after hit sent our way! Victories in 2004 and 2016 after their first year in 2003! Can't wait to see what they send for ESC 2022!!!

Nightingale, nightingale, oh, what do I do now? I came to love him - and cannot forget him

first time listening: omg, this voice🥴 second time listening: wait, let me hear this again... now: SOLOVEEEEEEEEYYYYYYY SOLOOOOOVEEEEEEYYYY

Because of Go_a, especially Kateryna, I want to study Ukrainian. Pozz iz Hrvatske 🇭🇷❣️🇺🇦

I hope it European countries understand we like when they sing in their native languages.

I have no clue what she is singing. But I love it. This screams eurovision. Well done ukraine. Straight into my top 3.

Listen to this rhythm, listen to this voice... This is how magic sounds. They are worth to be heard in Europe. Wish them good luck!

Both this one and Shum are completely mindblowing. Go Go_A!!

Не, в 20 году песня бы не заняла такую высокую позицию, хорошая, но не такая ритмичная. В 21 году песня шедевральна.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is how folk-electro-pop song should be done. Also I really appreciate when participants singing in their own language. Great job Ukraine, I hope you'll get great result :D

I didn't understand a word of it. But could she win? YES! Greeting from Amsterdam

I liked this song, but i’m glad they got a chance to come back in 2021 because nothing compares to SHUM. They really upped their game even more

They performed at the liberation festival in Den Bosch (south of the Netherlands) today. I liked this song and shum, but after tonight I am a big fan. They performed so well and they gave much energy to the audience. It was amazing. Everybody sang along with shum and solovey, even the people who dont speak Ukranian

To the people who are commenting on the singer's voice. She is doing that for a purpose - it's called a white voice. It's an ethnic / folk type of singing technique native to Eastern Europe. You can google the definition. That's the band's intention here and the idea is taking old traditional song / singing style and modernizing it with music. I can assure you she can sing differently otherwise.

Ukraine is one of the best countries in Eurovision. Its weird that everytime they send a great song, you think it just cant get better than that, but then they keep on sending a better one the year after. This is a top 5 song.

Me listening to this song going anyway: "Siyu siyu siyu siyu konopelechki, siyu siyu siyu siyu zelenesenki"

Шкода, що лише через півтора роки до мене дійшло наскільки ця пісня крута

So proud to be slavic. Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷

I don't have any words. Oh Gods. Why Ukraine always have best songs? I'll vote for them with any of my phones.

*Хто тут після суперового виступу на Євробаченні 2021?)*

I got opsessed with this Band i even started to learn Ukranian !

100% ця пісня буде відрізнятися від усіх учасників євробачення . Я дуже счастлива що українська пісня буде представлена на весь світ і нашу співучу мову , почує весь світ . Дуже крута пісня , Вітаю з перемогою .

I thought Lithuania's song was the best until I heard this one GO SLAVIC BROTHERS 🇧🇬❤️🇺🇦

I already loved them last year but this year they literally smashed it! I'm so happy that they were second in the televote🎉 Personally in my top 3 with Italy (my country) and Finland. Love from Italy❤

I love UKRAİNE 🇺🇦 From TURKEY🇹🇷

FINALLY! A country with their native language. That's Eurovision, countries with their culture.

I don't need any more entries. Ukraine stole my folk soul this year! I absolutely ADORE this song. 12 points from Poland!!!

I really love how traditional slavic sounds are being combined with today's music! Amazing song! It is a bit sadder than Shum, but still a great song!

I am from America and have dual citizenship in the US and UK. Recently I have been looking for Ukrainian songs as a way to support Ukraine in what way I can and to honor the Ukrainian people. I quickly remembered that Eurovision exists, so I looked for all the Ukranian Eurovision songs and this one is probably my favourite Slava Ukraine. People around the world are thinking of you, rooting for you, and praying for you.

Your's ethnic is amazing.Straight to the final.Good luck from Lithuania

12 баллов от Беларуси!))) 12 points from Belarus!)))

I am literally crying, this is so beautiful. My Slavic heart is so happy 💚

Love from Korea I am literally in love with this song and shum. It gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it💖💖

Прыгожа! 12 балаў ад паўночных суседзяў, Беларусь! 🇧🇾❤🇺🇦

So this was originally a folk song. This needs to become a new genre: pop folk songs. And Lithuania needs to do a rock version of oi šermukšnio.

That is so unique and so freaking well made.....Go_A really are the most exciting act for me in a long, long time ....and I'm watching the ESC for quiet a while, still remebering the moment when ABBA entered the stage in 1974 and changed my musical point of view for years to come. All the best from (East) Germany!

Unbelievable sound, codes in rhythms and words. Everything is very old, so it resonates with those who are not from Ukraine. A song with a deep meaning - the Sun, the awakening of nature, sowing grain, and "SHUM"/NOISE (the noise of trees in spring; the noise of branches that girls broke when they danced to welcome spring). The rhythm is accelerated, because in such a way, our ancestors woke up Spring, so that the Earth would wake up and be fertile for sowing. There is another meaning - in uniting people towards a common goal. Sowing the blessed one that gives Light. Thanks a lot to Katerina and Go_A.

She only sing in ukrainian, YES ! Finally a song that really represents a country and its culture! I think this is the best definition of what eurovision should be, representing your country with the best way in native language and cultural richness !

This is everything I want from Eurovision! 24 points from Croatia

Яка вишукана солістка,без всяких надутих губ,нарощеного волосся і силіконових цицьок.....Музика просто шикарна

Why cant we send a song like this in eurovision, we have great traditional music too. Greetings from Albania

As a lithuanian, we have a strong competitor right here, i think this is underrated 🔥🇱🇹🇺🇦

Actually I can’t undarstand about what song is about because I don’t speak this language but it really has unique sound and looks great. I like it. Wishes from 🇱🇹

Прошло 2 года, а до сих пор с первых секунд мурашки...

one of the best songs in the eurovision history. big loves from turkey 🇹🇷💕💕

Ukraine is my favourite country in Eurovision. They just keep sending high quality songs! Love from Estonia

Under this song, Europeans will confidently say that it is sung by Ukrainians and under others will only question what country it is. It is original, colorful, authentic. The perfect combination of folklore and contemporary rhythms. All songs in the competition must be like this.😇😍🐦

I live in Italy, but I LOVE Ukraine's song! 🇺🇦❤️🇮🇹

Это волшебство.. Я открыла новую любовь. Шум пошумит завтра

Наверое именно таким должно быть евровидение. Страны поют песни на своем языке и со своим культурным уклоном. Народы показывают друг другу свои традиции и свой этнос, надеюсь что когда-нибудь это произойдет

Amazing song, style and performance. Good luck in the Netherlands.

The song of 2021 is much better! 12 points from Belgium 🇧🇪 And go for the win!

i really like this song but it doesn't really compare to SHUM - that song is a masterpiece

12 points from Italy! 🇮🇹 Fantastic song!

Great song, great artists.. three minutes isn't enough. Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷

Ось як все починалося рік тому. А сьогодні 1 місце на Spotify :)

Didn't understand a word, yet I'm a fan!! Greetings from TR

I'm not Ukranian but I appreciate that song is folk based and in a native language. I really like it too. Greetings from Bulgaria🇧🇬🇺🇦

ПРИВІТ ІЗ ІТАЛІЇ!! СОЛОВЕЙ ЦЕ ПРОСТО, СТИЛЬНО, ПО-УКРАЇНСЬКІ, НОВИЙ СТИЛЬ, МОЛОДЦІ !!!!!! BRAVIIIIII!!!! Не міняйте нічого, кожна деталь вашого виступу, кожний рух, вбрання, голос чудові та мають дуже гарний смак!!! SIETE BRAVISSIMI! ВДАЧІ ВАМ НА ЄВРОБАЧЕННІ!!!🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

This past year’s I’m really liking the songs that Ukraine is sending to Eurovision and this year I’m more hyped to see this live performance at Eurovision, what I like the most about this song is that it’s in Ukrainian❤️ Love to Ukraine from Portugal 🇵🇹

Послухав пісню і зловив себе на думці, що мені не важливо яке місце вона займе на Євробаченні - я просто хочу її там чути.

I just found this and wondered that WHY I don't remember this performance, but then I realized that Eurovision was cancelled in 2020.. :O time flies...

Ой ходила я в долину По червоную калину Ой ходила я в долину По червоную калину Назбирала квіточок Заплітала в віночок Заплітала в віночок Руту і барвіночок А до мене Ванюша Із за гаю поспіша А до мене Ванюша Ти Катруся хороша! Мила моя Катруся Я з тобою люблюся Я з тобою люблюся Поки не зна матуся Соловей, соловей не співай раненько А мені на серденьку знов не веселенько Соловей, соловей ой як мені бути Вміла його полюбити - не вміла забути Якби я того не знала То з тобою б не гуляла Не ходила в долину Не ламала б калину Я з тобою люблюся Поки не зна матуся А як узна матуся, то розійдемося Не співай раненько Щось не веселенько Ой як мені бути Соловей, соловей не співай раненько А мені на серденьку знов не веселенько Соловей, соловей ой як мені бути Вміла його полюбити - не вміла забути Соловей, соловей не співай раненько Бо мені на серденьку знов не веселенько Соловей, соловей ой як мені бути Вміла його полюбити - не вміла забути

Lithuania, Norway, Ukraine...these a my favorite. So far.

Вялікі рэспект спявачцы! Адразу бачна, што добра валодае традыцыйным стылем выканання народных песень. І "Салавей", і "Шум" гучаць аўтэнтычна нават нягледзячы на сучасны біт. Таксама варта адзначыць, што спявачка трымаецца на сцэне вельмі натуральна, без крыўляння і вульгарнасці. Прыемна глядзець і слухаць! Таленавіты гурт с добрым густам.
