      Maybe even better then the studio version. Excellent vocals and arrangements. She performed slightly better in the second semi final. I did' t put this song in my top 10 but it was very close. That tells alot about the quality of the songs this year. Finished 17th in the final, the worst coming from the second semi final.

      Fisnik Xhelili It was all staged. Since North Macedonia has changed the name very recently, they wanted it to become recognizable - the reason North Macedonia got so many points from the juries. (they couldn’t control the telvotes though lmao) Many other entries lost jury points because of that.

    The next you die
    How much nostalgy, how little hope
    Alone, no identity
    Return to your Land
    Oh man that held hostage the heart
    Return to your Land
    You know there is a heart waiting for you

      You sing and cry

      One day she lives
      The other dies
      What a craving, a little hope
      Single, without identity
      Return to your land
      O man who let the heart hostage
      Return to your land
      You know a heart awaits you
