This was AMAZING. I really really like the song and this is an obvious qualifier (at least i hope so). But i have one issue 😭 the staging is just too silly, i really hope the staging gets revamped a bit if it qualifies for the final, it would be nice to see the actual band instead of just 2 singers. Good luck citi zeni! Love from poland! 🇵🇱 ❤🇱🇻
@@oliversmatvejevs4218 Kaut ko līdzīgu kā Lietuvai bija pagajušo gad, tikai ar saviem melnajiem kostīmiem, manuprāt būtu labi, šeit viņi pārspīlēja par daudz, lai gan krāsas bija ok
The staging makes it feel like a single act with a featuring rapper not a group. The outfits are too silly, this song is a club bop, I expected some rich matching suits, a dance floor, a lot more colourful rather than the bland lighting/colours we see here. It's a shame as it is very difficult to figure out staging for this type of song but the staging here is dragging it down rather than elevating it unfortunately. You've made an absolute banger look very cheap and unfortunately not much can be changed in time for the final, shame.
I just feel the need to say, I loved this song so much. The second I heard it I knew I wanted it to win the national final with no hesitation. It’s been stuck in my head nonstop. But now that I’ve seen the staging… let’s just say there needs to be some BIG changes or it might not be one of my favorites anymore. It’s just to see a song with so much potential to go waste like this 😢
What I imagined was all of them in the outfits they had in the cover, dancing to the beat, and having flashy lights all around them. Like Silvester Belt would do with ECTO "Outsider" flashy lights. That would be soooo goood! And then I see this. It was a suprise, but unfortunately not a pleasant one.
This was a very fun and nice performance. Their vocals were great, the song is a bop, I just expected a different staging. I think that if Latvia sends this to ESC.. they defo need a better staging and something more energetic. Because I feel like this weird staging does not fit the song. Im glad they qualified. :)
Laurim gan bija trakas versijas, ko nozīmē tādi tērpi. Varbūt tās esot poda birstes. Man izskatās pēc mošķīšiem. Šī dziesma pamodinātu visus, kuri aizmiguši, klausoties n-tās balādes. Ļoti laba enerģija, Dagnis labi nodziedāja.
I love this so much more than Eat Your Salad. I do hope we get to see the rest of the group in the performance. They had such charisma in 2022. Hate to see it lost in the tissue paper costumes. Still love this song though. RAMTAI RAMTAI!!!!!
I think that the idea is not bad - the lyrics talk about Ramtai being something strange, uncontrollable and with no discerning meaning, so this fits perfect. But maybe it could use a bit of a revamp, this one would rock at Eurovision!
am i the only one who loves the staging? i mean yeah, they can easily change the outfit and stuff. But in 2025. Eurovision is for fun, and i think this staging can go through Eurovision Finals 100%. It is super unique for them to change it. It's just my opinion
I much prefer this song to līgo, but I just don’t get the staging, I think it just feels too claustrophobic. I think the fuzzy outfits are a hit, and like the reveal towards the end, but something just feels off
vislabakā dziesma no visām, maisiņmonstri bija ļoti incanti un super, man liekas ka viss bija super, jāpārstāv eirovīzijā un jadabū augsta vieta! :) nez ko citi cepās un ko tur vel pievienot, jo manuprāt viss super :3
bij ok. Daiņa tērps uz visa pārējā krīt laukā no visa. maisiņtērpi ir nice. godīgi sakot, kinostudija ir slikta vieta kur uzņemt šo pasākumu. skaņa nekāda, skatuve maza kur mākslinieki nevar izplesties, tumšs. es nesaprotu kur ir gaismas!? visiem sejas ēnā! tiešām no priekšas neviena prožektora? Martas čali kurš meta salto pa visu skatuvi man liekas neviens neredzēja 😅
jesus christ first i saw ligo being such a goddamn dissapointment NOW THIS ANOTHER AWESOME SONG i mean what are those, trash bags dancing around you its a shame you did not use the staging potential of this song however you might still win so i hope you fix it for eurovision stage...
I feel like Citi Zēni wanted to pay tribute to Doja Cat’s performance of Demons at Coachella. She did almost the same thing. But the background dancers were Yetis
I don’t get this staging at all. So messy and so cheap. Their power is in their charisma… but there’s no charisma when all the members are completely covered in trash-bags. A great example how to ruin an EXCELLENT song with a horrible staging… Citi Zēni were my absolute #1 before the show and now I even didn’t see them qualifying. But they qualified and there is one week to completely redo this from a scratch.
I like it but only a sample as chorus? 🤔 The rap part needs to start earlier and the last 20 sek singing on top needs to be expand or become the chorus. Then it might work to get more jury votes for the vocals. Come on! I like them, I don't want to see them loosing again at the ESC! It's a banger but it needs some kind of upliftings to make it a better live version.
Paldies 💛💛💛
The best ❤
But on Eurovision you need better staging
finālā pievienojiet mirogjošās gaismas kā 2:24, piedziedājumā 🙏
Iconic! 👌🇱🇻
желаю победы
I still like you guys regardless!
I LOVE RAMTAI ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
priekšnesums💯💯💯
So tough between this and Ligo. This is so so much better than their previous entry. Certain qualifier on EV.
This was AMAZING. I really really like the song and this is an obvious qualifier (at least i hope so).

Better than their previous ESC entry. A lot of love from Hungary 🇭🇺
Teikšu godīgi. Dziesma man ļoti patīk, bet noformējums, priekšnesums nebija tas, kas man bija prātā.
Gribējās tādus tērpus kā tājā dziesmas bildē, un kaut kā lai visi kopā dejo, bet nu cerams ka izlabos, nedēļal laiks ir.
@@pienvedejiofficial tieši tā. Man tāda pati doma.
Šo var nosaukt par dziesmu,vai par kaut kādu bezpriģelu?

I agree 100%
Song with such staging potential and this is the best staging you could think of? I think you should just scrap it and think of something else..
not what i expected but if this is what they are going with, they really need more strong lighting like in the bridge
@ihavenoidea25 the lights and chosen color scheme was good, but those outfits just ain't it... and can definitely improve on dance moves...
agreed
@@shovkovskyi no, i meant it like look at 2:24 , it's perfect with the lighting, but the chorus lacks the energy
That’s exactly what I was thinking!

I could not agree with you more!
Janis deserves more credibility as a rapper… his skills are really good

Ditch the costumes for the finals
Come on Latvia we want to hear Latvian at Eurovision! 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
What I imagined was all of them in the outfits they had in the cover, dancing to the beat, and having flashy lights all around them. Like Silvester Belt would do with ECTO "Outsider" flashy lights. That would be soooo goood!
And then I see this. It was a suprise, but unfortunately not a pleasant one.
SAME
This is a masterpiece that must win
This giving me Silvester Belt vibes 🔥
WINNERRR
I like song but I dont like performance
This was giving “Cup-a-Soup - a great big hug in a mug”
Patika skārdulīši, bet pietrūka pārējie grupas dalībnieki. Ja vien varētu uzstāties 12 cilvēki 🫠
Malači! ❤️

wait that's actually such a great correlation
was my fav to win but not w this performance, they added too much, they just needed a normal dance and thoes outifts in the cover
Dziesma 10/10, bet priekšnesumu lūdzu salabot steidzami!! :((
You already had your shot a few years ago and you blew it
Decisions were certainly made. Why can't we see your beautiful faces? :(
Does anyone know what verrrryyyyyy popular song have a mv similar to this with a dancing hairy monster? It was very popular in like 2016 🤔
It gives me UMK shampanataivas from Finland. I don't remember the year
Light it up major lazer
@Quandoanno THANK YOU SOSOSO MUCH!!!!!
The glasses fell off at 2:45
YESSS THIS IS THE ONE

Is it their sax guy? DIdn't knew he could sing so well
I much prefer this song to līgo, but I just don’t get the staging, I think it just feels too claustrophobic. I think the fuzzy outfits are a hit, and like the reveal towards the end, but something just feels off

It was good, although the performance needs improvement. In particular, the costumes should be changed
LETS DO THE RAMTAI IN BASEL. THIS IS SO COOL
It makes me so angry that we don't get to see the other 4 members AT ALL, like, not even at the end of the performance...
I loved it
Nu šeit ir piemērs visiem latviešiem ka no ļoti labas dziesas uztaisīt suuuuuuuudu 🙈
bij ok. Daiņa tērps uz visa pārējā krīt laukā no visa. maisiņtērpi ir nice.
godīgi sakot, kinostudija ir slikta vieta kur uzņemt šo pasākumu. skaņa nekāda, skatuve maza kur mākslinieki nevar izplesties, tumšs.
es nesaprotu kur ir gaismas!? visiem sejas ēnā! tiešām no priekšas neviena prožektora?
Martas čali kurš meta salto pa visu skatuvi man liekas neviens neredzēja 😅
Dude what are those monsters?
Look up for hairy monster dance 😂
vajag dažas lietas noņemt un dažas pievienot, piemēram tas background, un pievienot vairāk ar gaismu saistītu lietu (arī tērpus varētu pamainīt)
pourquoi faut-il qu'on a 3 excellents choix la même année, s'il n'y a rien l'année prochaine nous seront bien mal d'avoir vu ça
Kas ir Dagnim mugurā?
Dziesma ir ok, bet prasās vairāk enerģijas, degsmi, izteiktāk emocijas!!!!
Dziesma laba,lipiga un eiropai varetu patikt,bet.... kas tie pa terpiem???
Šo tu sauc par dziesmu,tas ir kaut kāds nesaprotams murgs,un džeki kaut ko lēkā apkārt satērpušies miskastes maisos
What performance was that. That's really bad😢😢😢...
jesus christ first i saw ligo being such a goddamn dissapointment
NOW THIS
ANOTHER AWESOME SONG
i mean what are those, trash bags dancing around you
its a shame you did not use the staging potential of this song
however you might still win so i hope you fix it for eurovision stage...
I feel like Citi Zēni wanted to pay tribute to Doja Cat’s performance of Demons at Coachella. She did almost the same thing. But the background dancers were Yetis
@dougxvale i understand if that was their goal, however doen't mean it ended up good as they thought
@@JeskelaKovačevič I didn’t get it at first, the song is fire though.
@@dougxvale i said song is sick, i like listened to it on a daily basis and still will, but can't deny that staging was a missed opportunity
What did you expect from Līgo? As a Latvian, this staging is basically what I expected to be, and I like it.
I had high expectations for this amazing song. I'm disappointed. It really needs changes to have a chance to win :/
Skan jau labi, bet nu nez, nez nez....

Atgādina pagajusa gada dziesmu baby lazanja😂
The staging is so cheap
Eat your salad
is this what the plastic bags in the trash can do when nobody is looking?
Hahaha...?
stupidity and irrelevance win
They were robbed in 2022
Man nepatika. Tās birstes izskatās nokopētas no ukraiņiem un dziesma latviski nepatīk. Vienīgi tās Ramtai, bet ar to vien Eirovīziju nepacelsi.
Winner❤
Croatia 2024 song from Temu
More like Lithuania 2024
Interesanti! Tikai vajadzēja angliski!
Neeee🤐
This sucks.
