@@leapinggrotto4926 u never know who will qualify at all ...this year is soo open ...His live performance in Ukraine is examle that he can qualify but yeah i am not fun of revamp, lets see staging amd then criticize ...
Tom _ I like his performance at Vidbir. The revamp is just....ugh. It’s like Montenegro last year before their revamp. Let’s hope they scrap the revamp or at least tune the guitar down at the live performance
While I am really not a fan of Albania's song this year (I think live it could do better), but I cannot understand why people here hype so much Norway then call our song Cliche? I totally opted for Albania to send smth upbeat this year, but again, calling the song cliche, Norway's one is another cliche ballad too, surprisingly is considered favorite to win the competition. The double standards are staggering tbh
Because it's a well produced modern Ballad. Norway sends different songs every year. Albania sends the same thing over and over and over again. It has come to a point, fans simply know what song Albania is bringing. The bad results of the country speak themselves.
It doesn't mater what language she's singing, what does matter is the voice and she has a powerful voice 👏🏻 plus the song is simple classy not compilcated at all.
Why are speaking so bad for this song and her english and your face so suprised , this is no good for you, maybe you still missing Elvanna but she is nothing live before Arilena , she dont need your like because she is a star, bye bye.
@@ESC-zh2wb of course she will be in top 5 and dont need their support, the way that they coment is so bad but she will shine like a star on the stage.
@dirty hands neither the song of Elvana was so good and she cant sing live, and about song of Arilena is masterpeace and sure on top 5, she is a star and can not compare with Elvana.
Remember when no one liked Last Years North Macedonia? Although that message was way more powerful, this is still a good ballad with a stunning performer. Hope it does well
I can't believe I wasted 5 minutes of my life listening to a " girl " who don't know what music is. Are you human or ... ? 1. how could you possibly not like Arilene's voice that is extraordinary 2. The emotion that this song conveys, there are so many feelings 3. the lyric it's beautiful, emotional and very felt. Apart from the fact that you know about good music, at least pretend to be human and share positive feelings. Hajt shnet
They shouldn't have changed a lot of things. Especially the moment when she isn't singing and backvocals are like '' Oooo ooo ooo Shaj ooo ooo Shaj'' i loved that moment and now it' s like a basic ballad song with no ethnic elements.
To be honest, this revamp was good, but they kinda removed the parts that gave the song more power like the Violin Instrumental and the backvocals singing "ooh oooh ooh Shaj" or even in english. its that part where it send chills but the revamp is good.
Whilst I agree that in the past with English language revamps, the likes of Autumn Leaves come to mind, they have tended to damage the song and remove the mystery and natural beauty behind the original song, in this case I think it is the opposite. Whilst I liked the original, I think with this song, as it was originally written in English, the true beauty of the song comes out when sung in English. Definetly earned a place within my top 10 and I honestly can see this finishing very highly in the final if given good staging, as we already know she can sing brilliantly live.
Albanian is just such a beautiful language and it added so much authenticity to the song, and without the language, I feel like a big part of that has been stripped away.
I prefer the English version, in terms of production and also as a whole. I just miss the violins from the old version. However, as a whole the new version is much better. I get Sanna Nielsen vibes :D
peace baby this is not me trying to be shady towards Arilena, I’m just saying what I think will happen. She has a fantastic voice but the song will be forgotten, especially with the revamp. It’s Lindita 2016 all over again.
The song is very good she can't make happy everyone, and she is doing her best, the English version is very good beacouse Arilena wants the people to understand her message which is very powerful and that bridge is OMG, ARILENA can sing and she will rock that stage.
this version has much more power and energy and the lyrics are better in the english version. lyrics are really an important part of a song i don't see how not understanding the lyrics makes it better with good staging this song will really shine
Whats going on?! This song was first written in english than in albanian than again in english. I love both versions and Norway last year had a cliche ballad. Arilena's is different because the lurics are powerful and the message is great. Her vocals are no like any singer.
The revamp sounds just like another James-Bond-Wannabe song. The title "Fall from the Sky" doesn't help to fight this feeling. And there are already too many of those songs in the contest. As You said it: The Albanian version gives the song a ethnic, almost mystical vibe. Arilena did have an international success with "Nentori". This song proved, that you can be successful even by singing in your mother tongue. I hope they decide to perform in Albanian on stage...
The Problem is if they kept it in Albanian most people can’t connect to it as they aren’t typically able to understand Albanian unless you’re Albanian but you can’t vote for your own country. They also saw how enthnic/mother tongue songs in previous years were not rated highly by juries etc e.g Jonida Maliqi, but changing to English can help avoid that but then you loose the magic and mystery it once had. Either way If it was in Albanian people would say I want it in English, and if its in English people will want it in Albanian so there’s not an easy soloution..
deban said that a language change can't steal all your votes... if Hatari switched their song to English I'm sure they would've been out of that top 10
Im sorry but what???!!!A cliche????No i think we have so many more cliche songs this year who talks about a sad ending of a relationship and this song tells you that you can fall from the sky but you will always find the power to get up and keep going because thats how life works many times...So this is definetly not a cliche...I think you guys didnt even understood the lyrics...
Wtf man. That's a ballad. It requires belting and power. Albanian version was more personal to her but the English version is more powerful and has a better technique. She is a vocalist man not a performer. Stop shading. When it comes to ballads nothing can be easy
Because as a native English speaker the lyrics are so cliché. Maybe they are in Albanian too but most of us eurovision fans wouldn't know because we don't speak Albanian, so to us it's just a pretty language.
You're right. It does not mean at all the same thing. I mean in English it IS cliché and in Albanian on the contrary it's very deep. Funny how you get it without speaking the language. Vocally no change. Girl can sing! Music is good. Lyrics are way better in Albanian. Punch in the guts. And the struggle is internal, nothing to do with someone trying to hold her back.
Our language Albanian 🇦🇱,is really beautiful,and the song in english it’s not the same text,only melody is like the same but not the words ..Shaj is very deep and beautiful song...
To be honest in albanian it was more unique in terms of both instrumental and lyrics...now it may clash with some other ballads in sf2 and maybe won't stand out but let's wait for the staging.
I have seen other Albanian entries in Albanian language, and they didn't reach that high. Sad thing is that if a song is unintelligible, no matter how "mystical" it sounds, rarely it makes it to the top.
Where this song will come alive is on stage, i do like this however there is just that IT thing about it missing; however I do believe with the live performance that is when the IT thing will come into play. She’s at her best when she’s live. Albanian creative team need go with staging something like Roko from Croatia2019 without the awful cheap angel wings but start off moody to reflect her feeling in the beginning almost trapped in darkness and end with that heavenly feel where she’s breaks free and soars... although they could do her wrong like they did with Jonida Maliqi’s staging... still mad
Arilena will definitely qualify for the final. There is no better singer than her this year. She also has more followers in instagram than all singers this year so she is well known 😉🇦🇱
I completely disagree, while I don't care about if it was in Albania or English and I think both were great it's pretty clear to win it's better to sing in English. Only Portugal and Ukraine in the last 10 years have won while singing in their native language while the other 8 have all been in English.
4:20 no it doesn’t sound strange at all I’m not a native Speaker but my understanding of the English language is so good that I know what most English songs are about and Cliche Lyrics also bother me. ;-; But my big problem with the Revamp is the complete shift in tone and the Modernization Of the Instrumental. The Instrumental was my favorite instrumental of this Years Eurovision but now it’s nor as powerful nor as unique as the Original. I know Serbia had a very similar Instrumental last year. Edit: I obviously prefer the Albanian Version but the English Version wouldn’t have been much worse if they’d kept the old Instrumental.
You call it "Shash"?! ^^ Have you never listened to the original thoroughly? It's not like "shy" were a word that English speakers couldn't pronounce... and it's so front and centre in the original that it's obvious how the title is pronounced. Or is this just a running gag on your channel that merely escaped me? :P
Arilena: dua ta SHAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Ps:I love you guys. Enjoy this year.
I love it in English! Its more powerful and more modern! How much you would have loved it if there wasnt any albanian version before? ☺️
I actually love this revamp and I didn’t think I would. It has risen in my ranking to my number 3 now
Same! I absolutely love this version
I personally prefer English version. It is more powerful than Albanian studio version. I can feel the emotions.
It doesn't mater what language she's singing, what does matter is the voice and she has a powerful voice 👏🏻 plus the song is simple classy not compilcated at all.

Are you kiddin, If you read the lyrics of Shaj it doesnt make sense.. The english version has amazing lyrics and they correlate each other finally.
Juan Carlos Domínguez Interesting point - just because a song has native lyrics, it doesn’t mean it’s good lyrics.
Yeah because the lyrics make more sense to an Albanian than to another language speaker.
The Albanian Words are different sometimes
And this was different
The Albanian version it was of swearing to the beast
Now it's just flying
I wish it will be performed with the same energy as the albanian version.
Remember when no one liked Last Years North Macedonia?
Although that message was way more powerful, this is still a good ballad with a stunning performer. Hope it does well

Switch the first part to albanian, and retain the bridge until the end in English. That would be much better.
