passionpopMontenegro has a perfect record in Eurovision. In 5 attempts they have perfectly managed to not qualify every time. This year they have decided to out Eurovision the old hands at Eurovision with plausibly their best Eurovision entry yet.
Artist: Sergej Ćetković
Song: Moj Svijet
The only fault I feel with this song is that is sounds like it was meant to be a 4 minute epic ballad and it was cut short to fit into Eurovision's 3 minute maximum. The song kinds stops at the end as it leads to another chorus. Even if it had another chorus though, I probably wouldn't care for it. I am the Grumpy Cat of Eurovision.
Other then the songs abrupt end at the 3 minute mark, there also feels like there was a couple of other edits. It it still a pretty ballad. I just don't like pretty. The video is beautiful too. I don't like that either
The interesting this is that the national presentation of this song was not a live performance, but the playing of this clip, which makes one wonder if he can sing live. Anything that even sounds like vocals on the backing recording are a breach of the rules so he better be able to sing.
In 2007 another song went to Eurovision with a remarkably similar name to this one, actually the translate to about the same thing. It was “Мојот свет”(Mojot svet) from Macedonia.
