I'm so glad that they're keeping the song in Albanian. It creates so much more of an atmosphere and obviously they saw the success of keeping a song written in Albanian in Albanian from last year rather than translating it to English as they have done in other years. I look forward to seeing their competition because this is an amazing start.
Your reaction is pretty much on point,I'm one of those fans or maybe just me that I get strange feelings when Albania brings a new entry, I mean it in a good way,like intrigued, thrilled, I don't know Albania is really unique and mysterious, they have a massive history, very ancient country been suffering so much unfairly, there is pain and emotion in this beautiful entry,this is goes in places and crying for like the mother land loves you and welcomes you whenever you miss it is always here for you bcs loves you and you love her back,there are parts that could relate far back with the Albania 's history being occupied and Albanians are very patriotic and would come back and fight and die for their country,Albania mother land is the best thing that Albanians praise a lot and are very very proud,very powerful song,my absolute favourite, good luck Albania, hope Eurovision finally credits Albania for bringing so much uniqueness, love, passion, beauty and so much respect to this Euro stage,thank you Albania for this masterpiece.
Yay! I need to play catch up with your 2019 songs. Before the revamp, I love everything about it. And damn, that voice!!! After the revamp/music video, it took it up a notch. I can’t wait to see the staging for it. So glad she’s keeping it in Albanian.
I SCREAMED. HIIIII. I love Albania, they always send good stuff. Honestly, she could win. Your channel is almost 10 months old, I can't believe it has almost been one year since I started watching you. It'd be such a great winner. Sorry Nicosia, but Tirana 2020. Nicosia 2021. The song's about immigrants, and she said this song if for the Albanians and for everyone who searches for a better life and that it's inspired particularly in the Kosovo war. This is one translation I found: You sing and cry, In hands, tears are gathered You held them,
One day you live 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
One day you live 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 TIRANA 2020.
Yep. Albania is setting the bar super high. The rest of the countries better step their games up. Thanks for the translation by the way. My interpretation was actually not too far off.
That’s it. Stay where you’re born and atop mucking about on silly holidays. Most dopey fools can’t see that. Muh divErSwiTy doesn’t work. It just makes you lose your culture.
Unless this is an AMAZING year this'll end in my top 5 Greetings from Spain!! You are my fave country Albania, you always choose good voice over generic song :)
Typical for Albania. They ALWAYS send huge Quality. The Problem is mostly that they revamp the song into English. Last year it wasn't the case and they got 11th. And this year it seems that they don't gonna revamp it into English which is very good.
She singing for people to came back on they land where belong, cuz in other places they are without identity... And the beautiful part it's she will sing in our language.. ALBANIA
I missed your reactions, Jake! This is PURE ART, your face says everything!!!! 💗 I was speechless too the first time. I hope she wins or end in a good place. She deserves the world!!!!
6:30 you are completly right, with this song she calls the albanians that emigrated to different countries (diaspora) to comeback to their land, and the name of the song Ktheju Tokës means Comeback to Land, I am happy that you and other people understood the meaning wothout knowing anything in words because of language, and this means that language is not needed to understand a song 😍😍😍 thankyou for reacting, im a subscriber and countinue with other stuff of 2019 GoAl🇦🇱🇦🇱
I am from Albania and the title of the song is "return to your land" .It refers to all Albanians abroad or everyone who for different reasons left their country, it kinda says to not forget your roots, your language , your origin, culture etc....Its an awesome song with a very deep meaning :)
This song is so captivating D: After 2018 which Albania is my #1 favourite, I am watching you Albania. And this one is very good, the music is so good.
I agree with you TOTALLY A STUNNING PRODUCTION AND SINGER...WOW. HOPE THIS WINS AND I CANNOT UNDERSTAND A WORD WHICH MAKES EUROVISION ALL THE MORE SPECIAL....XXXXX LOVE TO ALL.
Welcome back, Jake! I'm glad I'm listening to this the first time with you. I totally agree with you. Her voice is stunning and I'm loving the ethnic vibe in this. I'm surprised my friends all hated the song and found it boring. ok maybe not the most amazing song but this may end up in my top 15 this year wow.
Hey Jake how are you,i hope you had great holidays and i hope in 2019 you will have better luck with keeping your videos alive on the channel. And about Albania...wow what a strong start.we need that ethnic influence....and that voice wow
The song is meaningful, beautiful... And well, maybe, everyone already knew that Albania is a country of great vocalists :-) It's hard to say what place it would take on ESC, as we need to listen to other contestants, but still this performance is decent.
Hello from Australia! Not entirely sure how I stumbled across this channel last night, but it gives me such joy so I don't even care. I think I've binge watched about 4 or 5 hours of content. I love Eurovision, so I just keep clicking on the next video. If you haven't already, I definitely recommend checking out Iceland 1997 and the interval act from 1994.
Albania is in it to win it! I still prefer "Mall" from last year as it's more my style of music, but Jonida's song easily stands out from the rest of the pack. I already predict qualification for Albania as long as they don't mess up the staging.
I seriously get Albania 2017 vibes with her. That voice is unforgettable in the best way possible. I think she will do well, if they keep it in the albanian language.
First time hearing this song and it definitely hit home. I do not know the story behind the song but if this wasn't written for the many Albanians that have had to leave their country, I would be surprised. Albanian text and English translation next to it. Title: Ktheju tokes (Return to your land/motherland) Ti kendon edhe qan (You sing and cry) Në duar lotët mbledh (You gather your tears in your hand) I mban... (You hold them) Një ditë jeton (One day you live) Në tjetrën vdes (The next you die) Sa mall, pak shpresë (So much longing, so little hope) I vetëm, pa identitet (Alone with no identity) Ktheju tokës tende (Return to your motherland) O njeri që zemrën lë peng (Oh you person that left your heart hostage) Ktheju tokës tende (Return to your motherland) Ti e di një zemër të pret (You know a heart waits for you) Një ditë jeton (One day you live) Në tjetrën vdes (The next you die) Sa mall, pak shpresë (So much longing, so little hope) I vetëm, pa identitet (Alone with no identity) Ktheju tokës tende (Return to your motherland) O njeri që zemrën lë peng (Oh you person that left your heart hostage) Ktheju tokës tende (Return to your motherland) Ti e di një zemër të pret (You know a heart waits for you)
Hi Jake, good to have you back Albania never disappoints vocally.....i get Jamala vibes from this performance.......Jonida is epic..... However, I'm feeling that we have seen it before....echoes of Albania 2017 anybody? This is excellent without a doubt, but Eugent raised the bar SO high last year.......I have a sneaky feeling that this may remain in the semi-final....would be a pity though
Literally everytime I listen to this song in my room, I literally randomly go " ktheju tokës tendeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee hmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmm le peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeng" ... I feel sorry for my neighbours :'D
Hi everyone. So im albanian and she has an amazing voice and face. You are right . She is yelling to people to come back to albania. Ktheju tokes-means come back to your place (ktheju-come back and toke-earth) because of problems we are facing ,lots of people are leaving for a better life. And thats painful.
Long time no see, Jake! Welcome back to us! Nice to see you back. The Albanian song reminds me a bit about Estonia 2009 in the beginning. Unfortunately it's not my cup of tea this year, but, good luck, Albania!
Albania always sends something that couldn't be from anywhere else, and this is no exception! It's growing on me already, but I don't think it has instant mass appeal - we shall see. PS - Please PLEASE react to Hungary's A Dal for this year. It's an amazing lineup.
Jasmin B I like that this song will be unlike any other this year, and thats true about Albanian entries, but there were a couple of better songs like Nene by Mirud, and Leyla. thx for support!
I like it as well, and I'm hoping that the usual revamp that Albania does on their songs will keep what makes this song so interesting. I also hope they'll keep it in Albanian, too. And without being Albanian, I believe that the theme of the song talked about the massive exile that Albanians suffered during a civil war I believe. Btw this is the first comment in this channel, and I guess I have to congratulate you for the work you've done so far Jake😊😊
Welcome back and Happy New Year! I would like to recommend you a young Chinese singer Hua Chen Yu! He is one of the best story teller using music, Top performer in China now and his recent concert broke all records sales in China! Please check out Hua Chen Yu performance on Singer 2018, highly recommended "Child", "Qi Tian", " I don't care", "Ordinary Path" and "Wayfarer" Thank you and look forward to your reactions!
Yes!!!this great Chinese singer. His name is Hua Chenyu.He is a very talented singer, very unique.He has many styles to discover.Watching his performance is never boring.I can't find the perfect word to describe him. He is so perfect.Looking forward to your reaction video.It will definitely surprise you.😊
Hua Chenyu really amazing in Singer 2018!He has person characteristics,he can perform song's soul then he thinking more about the song.Please check out these performance,very awesome!
Hua Chenyu is invited to make a theme song named "Qi Tian" for the movie (Wu Kong). Wu kong is a character in the Chinese classic novel (Journey to the west). This song is so amazing with the elements of rap & opera. You would never regret.
Please check out from the channel of "Hua Chenyu English Subs" "Child" ua-cam.com/video/EC5tYrTJ64Y/v-deo.html "Ordinary Path" ua-cam.com/video/dBerHiVdG3U/v-deo.html "Wayfarer" ua-cam.com/video/b19J4tXbY0Q/v-deo.html "Qi Tian" ua-cam.com/video/7Um7Ji199Xc/v-deo.html "I don't care" ua-cam.com/video/YSDtylrCuBg/v-deo.html
@@roy.moreno Yep people mix them always lol I didn't see it live this year, but I saw Eugene the previous year and the audio of the live orchestra was pretty amazing! Such a pity RTSH doesn't improve the transmission quality and doesn't upload HD videos.
This song reminds me of Amina performing "Le dernier qui a parlé" ("The last one who spoke"), the French entry at the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest that came 1st, dont exactly know why? The intro with the drum reminds me a lot of Soha - "Mil Pasos" as well, but nothing can reach the emotional depth of that song!
This is a great start to the Eurovision season. Holy shit it so good. Another thing: Your 2017 seires got blocked in EU servers mostly because of copyright claims and stuff =/ I think its not just me.
oke i have to say this song has been growing on me for the past days, i really like it now , even that Mirud should have won . but i cant still see this qualifying for the final but if its in the i predict top 15 but this song is very emotional and good and really catchy as well its now my 20/42 good luck Albania .
LOVE IT! Have some issues with the instrumentalization choices (chorus needs more BASSSSSS - I don't mean go full dubstep, but that bass is just too weedy - and some of the electronic percussive sounds are very dated) BUT damn me if this isn't Albania's best song ever!
This voice and this look deserve to be in top 5. But every year eurosomg is blind for albania voice. Albania is the best contry and has the best artist...
Ktheju tokes( return to Earth) Albania always has a good singer and songs unfortunately is a small country and we don't have a very much favor from other
Hi Jake! Do you remember to Joci Pápai from Hungary? He applied for the 2019ESC with this song: ua-cam.com/video/2b_vZFUVs_g/v-deo.html English translation: "My father My father raised me like the wind Blowing softly, singing, telling fairy tales He lived where every road ended One thousand and one years aren’t enough for a life, for a life
I can hear him, his heart on the strings I can see him, bearing the passing time on my face I’m proud to confess his faith Of a thousand and one songs this is the one that I hum
Old days, beautiful days I love his memory He calls me and I run to him That was a lovely way to play
Old songs summon him I still feel the sun's light I can still hear the drone of the wind I can still hear him in the voice of the wind
With a song he drove my sadness far away All I can give him is that I belong to him And I can say to my son with pride He's my father, and here's my home
Old days, beautiful days I love his memory He calls me and I run to him That was a lovely way to play
Old songs summon him I still feel the sun's light The wind whistled a lullaby so my dream would be beautiful The wind whistled a lullaby, I can still hear it today" lyricstranslate.com/hu/az-%C3%A9n-ap%C3%A1m-my-father.html-0#songtranslation

Absolutely! Please don’t ruin the message of the song by translating it to English for Eurovision.
True, let's not forget Albania's best result so far is with a song in their language ("Suus", 2012).
an amazing entry from Albania!! the melody is breath takinggg
Good luck Albania!!

OMG I like this!! Hope Albania will win. And she is singing in her own language, that's important for me
Thx me to but dont she win im the from albania 💓💓🤗
Albania always has fantastic songs and good voices.... and she looks like Demi Moore .... I love this woman

Amazing i love it she has great voice!
It was about the people that left on immigration and she calls them to go back to their land
The title is :come back to your land

This song reminds me of Amina performing "Le dernier qui a parlé" ("The last one who spoke"), the French entry at the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest that came 1st, dont exactly know why? The intro with the drum reminds me a lot of Soha - "Mil Pasos" as well, but nothing can reach the emotional depth of that song!
I love the cleopatra look! Btw could you react to Armenia 2008 please?
You should react to the Destination Eurovision 2019 songs or the Eesti Laul 2019 songs.
Good news. I just taped my reactions to all of the Destination France performers. It will air this weekend.
@@JakesFaceReacts I hope you can do Estonia. They have the full songs and there are a few very good ones there.
Welcome back 😀
Glad to have you back Jake!
Thank you. You’re awesome.✌️
This is the orchestral version, you should listen to the studio version, it's even better 💕
ESC Nils Quite the opposite. The orchestral version is much more powerful.
I have whatched this reaction over and over 😂👊❤️
Amazing! the winner 👌
This is a great start to the Eurovision season. Holy shit it so good.
Another thing: Your 2017 seires got blocked in EU servers mostly because of copyright claims and stuff =/ I think its not just me.
STUNNING !!!! 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱
I wasn't expecting you to comeback! I'm really glad to be proven wrong!
Thank you for being patient.✌️
oke i have to say this song has been growing on me for the past days, i really like it now , even that Mirud should have won . but i cant still see this qualifying for the final but if its in the i predict top 15 but this song is very emotional and good and really catchy as well its now my 20/42 good luck Albania .
LOVE IT! Have some issues with the instrumentalization choices (chorus needs more BASSSSSS - I don't mean go full dubstep, but that bass is just too weedy - and some of the electronic percussive sounds are very dated) BUT damn me if this isn't Albania's best song ever!
Jake is back, yeaaaaah. Happy 2019, and please react to Kazka - Plakala Ukrainian super song🇺🇦😮
It's a pity that the song was released last year.
Bro..it's a stealed song...from.an albanian singer listen to "Ylli Limani" with a videoclip of cartoons...he realesed the song 1.5 month earlier...
Hi i am from Albania,i am so happyyy you liked it .Thank youuuu😍
Top Ten Jonida. Ti e meriton!
This voice and this look deserve to be in top 5. But every year eurosomg is blind for albania voice. Albania is the best contry and has the best artist...
Welcome back maate ❤
Wow bellissima
Oh welcome back Jake. I missed you dude
Thanks, man.✌️💚
The new revamp version and video clip is out. U must react to that! 🇦🇱😁
Go Jonida...Go ALBANIA❤
Ktheju tokes( return to Earth) Albania always has a good singer and songs unfortunately is a small country and we don't have a very much favor from other
We miss you so bad Jake
Beautiful song. Hope this song will make it to the top 5 in finals...then it wins or not is not very important but the performance is.
Hi Jake!
Do you remember to Joci Pápai from Hungary? He applied for the 2019ESC with this song:
ua-cam.com/video/2b_vZFUVs_g/v-deo.html
English translation:
"My father
My father raised me like the wind
Blowing softly, singing, telling fairy tales
He lived where every road ended
One thousand and one years aren’t enough for a life, for a life
I can hear him, his heart on the strings
I can see him, bearing the passing time on my face
I’m proud to confess his faith
Of a thousand and one songs this is the one that I hum
Old days, beautiful days
I love his memory
He calls me and I run to him
That was a lovely way to play
Old songs summon him
I still feel the sun's light
I can still hear the drone of the wind
I can still hear him in the voice of the wind
With a song he drove my sadness far away
All I can give him is that I belong to him
And I can say to my son with pride
He's my father, and here's my home
Old days, beautiful days
I love his memory
He calls me and I run to him
That was a lovely way to play
Old songs summon him
I still feel the sun's light
The wind whistled a lullaby so my dream would be beautiful
The wind whistled a lullaby, I can still hear it today"

She is amazing, the song is great but dancer shoud go out.
She should be alone or with drumers! I love the Cleopatra look.
she just confirmed that , there will be no dancers on the eurovision stage . They are keeping the focus on her .
Who wants live orchestra in esc again
I didn't realise Vixen from RPDR was singing for Albania.
Shut up
hahaha. No constructive argument? Just "shut up". Lame lame lame. I throw shade on you missy. [the comment was about her styling and outfit]@@elliegk9668
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO
