    Festivali i Këngës has produced a participant for the 67th Eurovision Song Contest… Albina & Familja Kelmendi will head to Liverpool with their song 'Duje'.
    This year, the show's overall winner was picked by the Festivali i Këngës juries - that was Elsa Lila with her song Evita - however, the act winning the chance to represent Albania at Eurovision next year had to win the public vote, and so Albina & Familja Kelmendi win the ticket to Liverpool.
    Thank you to our friends at RTSH for providing this performance.

    I love that Albanians have the guts to send something typical Balkanic and not some new-age artistic thing. This is the kind of music that we all love, all Balkan nations. Give me some rakia and this music, and I will open my soul, break a glass and cry as a child. ❤ Greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸

      Thanks. serbs have good taste when it comes to common sense, considering how decadent other countries have presented themselves i thought even though it is albania surely gets a lot of sympathizers from serbia. I think it's a pity that Serbia no longer presents itself with its own folklore but more and more with decadent excesses. Greetings from Macedonia. Përshendetje dhe Faleminderit

    This is a very meaningful song dedicated to the families which teared apart due to conflicts and sepparate their families, even up to relatives. Family is a very a weak point to Abanian culture and this family is singing and giving the message to love your family no matter, through good and hard time and not to let anything come between.
    No languange would perfectly translate this song, because it is singed with a nothern albanian accent called 'Gegë'.
    But, hopefully this translation will help you to kinda understand the song better :)
    *****
    Something inside,

    And having it all
    Still can’t get enough

    They are tearing apart, they’ve killed love
    They’re tearing apart
    They have forgotten that they have a home,

    LYRICS ADAPTATION:
    Something inside me leaves me breathless,
    I don’t know what’s going on but I want it to stop.
    They have it all and although they got it all they’re still unhappy.
    They’re (they= people/families)breaking apart, for the smallest word they’re breaking up, love is dead, they’re hurting each other forgetting they have a place they call home and children of their own.
    Love, just like you used to, cherish that love, love it as much as life.
    Don’t throw rocks at it, love it like back in the days, cherish the love as much as life itself.

That's why I'm really proud and I appreciate a lot that other east European and Balkan countries are spreading very high quality traditional music we are all in this together at the end of the day it's all our folklore and we all should be united and accept the fact that we all have the same or similar traditions and culture.
