Intro Excerpt from Husavik by Atli Örvarsson
My favorite ballad this year!
Wish Serbia all the best from the Netherlands! :)
Not every ballad need a screaming frenzy ending. This song is delicate, fragile, extremely emotional with a powerful meaning behind it (probably the most powerful of all songs in ESC 2024).
❤ thank you for kind words from 🇷🇸
The song is not about a woman at all..
It is about the flower with the strong symbolism, methaphorics and message.. 🌸💜☮️
FIND WHAT THE SONG IS ABOUT FIRST .GREETINGS FROM AUSTRALIA
That's s true,but they don't know that,do they?!
@@user-fy9hb1iq5i They don't, so that's why I wrote - to let them know... 😏
I am quite disappointed with these people ...who are they ? Very disappointing....They have no clue what the song is about & no appreciation for her vocal talent.
"someone may have died/drowned" - yes, sadly, over five thousands of Serbian soldiers were "buried" in the sea near island Vido, Corfu, Greece after exodus from Serbia during WWI. It is called Blue tomb and it is heavily referenced trough lyrics and title of this song (not so clear for foreigners, I guess). Still it is a song about personal struggle and hope that it is always there. That's why it is so subtle and "doesn't explode".
👏👏
Testify 😔
In the First World War, Serbia lost about 30% of its population, 60% of its male population. The figure is around 1,200,000 inhabitants who lost their lives. This is perhaps the highest percentage that a country lost in that war. Ramonda is an endemic species and has 3 subspecies. One grows on the Iberian island and in Serbia there is Ramonda Serbica and Natalija's ramonda, which was named after the Serbian queen. Both species are endangered and are protected by law. Natalija's ramonda is also known as the phoenix because it can to dry completely and to revive again when the conditions are favorable. In the First World War, Natalija's ramonda was taken as a symbol of Armistice Day and as a symbol of Serbian suffering in that war, as a new beginning, as a phoenix. The song follows these two stories. It tells where the purple Ramonde disappeared, as a metaphor for the suffering that Serbia suffered. During the performance, purple luminous dots appear on the LED screens that rise and rise. They represent the souls of Serbian soldiers who died defending their country and which go to heaven. At the end of the words, a purple ramonda rises from the ashes. That verse represents the aspiration for a better tomorrow, for the end of war, for the end of suffering, for peace..
Blue tomb.
In one part of the song, he says, everything is quiet under the sea. When the Serbian army retreated through Albania to the Greek island of Vido, many soldiers died of disease and hunger. It is estimated that around 5,000 people died then and were thrown into the Ionian Sea for eternal rest. Since then, that place has been called the blue tomb.
Iberian island ? Do you mean the peninsula or one of the island near ?
@@samuelgordino Yes, I meant the peninsula. My mistake
@@majstoroviconline 👍
Thanks for explaining everything to these "experts". Greetings from Belgrade (Serbia). 🍀💜
A kog stranca to interesuje
I think a lot of people really underrate this song this year, maybe because Serbia has gone for several very out of the box entries the last few years, and this is more of a return to their Balkan ballad roots. I don't care, I think it's fantastic and it is also one of my favorites this entire year.
As a Serb I agree with you except for "Balkan ballad". It is a ballad but it doesn't give balkan vibe. I am from Balkan so i linda know how Balkan ballad sounds like 😂. This is more of something Billie Eilish would sing 😂😂😂
@@HailTheHordes oh I agree, this isn't your stereotypical midtempo folk ballad at all. It is only a Balkan ballad insofar as it is a ballot being sung by a nation that exists in the balkans, but that perception/misconception does still exist especially among Eurofans.
It does not sound like Serbian folk or pop songs at all. More like serbian classic music, it is full of dissonant rhymes. Newly composed pieces for piano for instance, and she is s pianist and a composer. I suppose that influenced her a little bit.
It is my number one, not just the song but the performance. Not very much singers are able of transmitting such emotion.
This song is about peace and hope.About Serbs solders in Great war who died for freedom.Lila Ramonda is flower symbol for peace in I World war❤
I consistently get goosebumps with this song. It's about resilience of populations and of individuals (via use of the ramonda as a metaphor) and speaks to how we must always hold onto hope and see possibility in our futures, even in the darkest of conditions. Currently my #3.
Hvala Kevane očigledno ste razumeli suštinu ovih stihova iako mnogima nije jasno zašto pesma o cvetu( ramonda ), a nama je simbolika važna jer smo se i mi kao narod više puta dizali iz pepela. Ogroman zagrljaj iz Srbije. Beskrajno hvala. ❤️🇷🇸💜🌸
@@djurdjinajovanovic5885
Yeah man its very good explanation..wow..in this time we dont have too much lightnes..but in future it will be better...regards from Serbia
This is definitely a jury song, its incredibly under appreciated especially with the general public. ❤
My kind of track. One of my favs for this 2024 edition ♥
This is very Nice...
The song grew on me and it was my fav this year, but ended in the second board, i already had given up by the first half of the jury, however the song was good. Yep, Politics....
I usually don't watch live performances and I'm really surprised how very good this live performance is.
Ramonda is masterpiece.
i'm really happy that she changed the final high note part because it didn't sound like that at the beginning. small change huge impact. Serbia is in my Top 5. 4th to be precise. so good!!
❤
Barkley graduated Teya Dora and her masterpiece for Eurovision song competition....Thank you Teya....and BRAVO
Such a beautiful song! The staging is great, the lyrics and the meaning of the song is amazing!❤
Saudade, Saudade was about the same! And was great! Harmoniiieees! There’s impact on the silence!
🇷🇸 ❤ 🇵🇹
Carlena always vibe with Serbian songs. She needs to visit Serbia. :)
Tema pesme je univerzalna i govori više o ličnom stradanju svakog čoveka na planeti. Svi mi u zivotu imamo mračne i teske trenutke kada ne vidimo izlaz,a ramonda je simbol snage i nade koja nam je tada potrebna da bismo opstali. Svetu je danas vise nego ikad potrebna lila ramonda! Nadam se da ce strana publika pesmu razumeti.
Song is about hard times in our life when we hardly function. Ramonda is a flower which can be found only in central Balkan on mounteens. Nickname of that flower is "Phoenix Flower" becouse it can completly dry out but only one drop of water and flower come back to life. It is clear metaphora on ppl who are going trough hard times and afhter some period "comes bacl to life". That flower symbolize Serbia during world War 1 when serbia is defetead in 1915 but at the end of war come back and won with allies. Every november 11th on armistrice day we put that flower on us in memory of resurection of Serbia in ww1. Something similar as English wore puppy flower on the same day but with slightly diferent motive.
Lovely harmonies❤
The song is about general hopelesness, both personal and societal. We live in dark times. No one believes in anything any more and she is calling for a hope to be reborn. In summary.
Serbia, it's a true artistic masterpiece. Ramonda is purple flower that grows out of stone and even when it dries out, it can be revived with iust one drop of water. Ramonda serbica grows only in
Serbia and it's kind of phoenix flower. Love it! 🌸💜
My favorit❤❤❤
This is a high praise coming from Maya, because she usually doesn't like ballads 💜
Lila ramonda, DZanum, Teya Dora SERBIA 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
Lyrics:
Ramonda
There's no rest for me, no rest for me
I am restless, I cannot sleep
The night won't give way to dawn
Doomed is the one who is alone.
It's as if underwater silence reigns
I'm screaming, but you can't hear my pain
Beyond the mountain gleam is white
Yet there's no end in sight
This is the path for the wounded.
And there is no one to guide me now
To Danitsa the Morning Star
The world is pyre burning each flower
Where have they evanesced, those lilac ramondas?
Lilac ramoda, lilac, ramonda, lilac ramoda...
Ramonda, lilac ramonda,
Lilac ramonda, lilac ramonda...
And there's no one who would guide me
For all the stars are sound asleep
Saying prayers is of no avail
Where have they evanesced, those lilac ramondas?
Lilac ramonda, lilac ramonda, lilac ramonda...
Ramonda, lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda, lilac ramonda!
From the ashes rises up
A single lilac ramonda.
Ramonda serbica is a lilac-colored flower that grows in central Balkans, mostly in the mountains of Serbia, and is a symbol of peace, hope, and resurrection. It is a very delicate and at the same time tough plant that can survive incredibly harsh conditions. It is worn as an emblem on Armistice Day, something like a poppy flower in the UK I think
There are other translations, but I found that this one is the best
And regarding the title, it is a very resilient flower en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramonda_serbica
One of my favourites 😍 this is a masterpiece😊❤
So delicate,great ballad about a symbol of peace and renewal Ramonda serbica 💗🇷🇸 Belgrade 2025.Serbia💗🇷🇸
Bože kako je lepo prvo nešto pročitati a ne lupetati bez veze. Slažem se da je važan prvi utisak, ali ne bih sebi dozvolila da napamet tumačim nešto o čemu ništa ne znam.
My favorit ramonda remember the song sounds victorious
I like almost all ballads this year, only a couple I don't. This one is one of my favorites though.
After watching the video I will agree with Tyler though that it definitely lacked something. I thought it was nice anyway.
To je nasa Ramonda 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🫶🫶🫶🌸🕊️
Idemooooo Teyaaa 🌸🌸🌸 glasamo iz 🇭🇷🙌🏼
It is about always having hope in everydays strugle for a person, nation, world...
Love singl"Ramonda''❤love singl,,Dzanum"❤🎉 love Tey Dora❤🎉😊

Best Song this Year🎉❤#1
Teya Dora is not her first name and a last name. Both words come from her real first name - Teodora. :D
She reminds me if Billie Eilish big time. The way she sings and acts ❤❤❤
Good luck Serbia
Ramonda, known scientifically as Ramonda Nathaliae or Ramonda Serbica, is an extraordinary flower indigenous to Serbia, thriving amidst the rugged landscape of mountain Rtanj, renowned for its distinctive pyramidal shape and potent geomagnetic field. Despite its delicate appearance, Ramonda possesses an unparalleled resilience, capable of revitalizing with just a scant few drops of water. This unique characteristic mirrors the indomitable spirit of the Serbian people, who have endured countless trials throughout history.Symbolically, Ramonda embodies the essence of resistance and the power to emerge triumphantly from adversity. It stands as a poignant reminder of Serbia's resilience, particularly in the aftermath of the Great War (1914-1918), during which the nation suffered the loss of nearly one-third of its population, predominantly males. This staggering loss created an unnatural gender imbalance within Serbian society, yet the spirit of the people endured.As the national flower of Serbia, Ramonda serves as a poignant symbol of hope, resilience, and the enduring strength of the Serbian people. It is a testament to the nation's ability to overcome challenges and rise from the ashes, embodying the spirit of renewal and perseverance that defines the Serbian identity.
🥰
it's about strong woman finally:)...sophisticated, gentle, sad and strong
She is a wonderful woman with a unique voice. The song is something very special that was given to us and we get to see and enjoy it live. Everything that is currently happening in the world, from all the wars to the stressful everyday life and the fast pace of life. This song brings us back down to earth. An unparalleled masterpiece. Thank you Teya! Thank you Serbia!!! For me the only real winner this year in Malmö....Belgrade 2025
❤❤Top best Song and Music
It's not "first name, last name" it's the name Teodora broken down to Teya (Thea) and Dora, she uses it as her stage name.
Wow guys! It's seriously emotional song. Have you noticed your face expression change from start till the end of performance?
Her name is Teodora😅 this is not her first and last name. This sonst is amazing due to the fact she singl in her language and about an serbian flower. She falls it by Herren nothing else needed. Tea mi te volimo ❤

Corfu Island (Greece) is also know as the Blue Grave.
💙 ❤ 🤍
Ramonda is purple flower which we use as a pin on our coats on November 11th (the end and victory of ww1). It's a kind of flower that goes almost dead and then when you put some water on it , it rises from the dead. It has wonderful purple colour. Also, it's called Nathalia's ramonda, in honor of Serbian queen.
During the ww1 Serbia list the 3rd of it's male population. Greece help us. We went through Albania to recover in Greece. But there our solders died in such a great numbers, they couldn't put them in the ground. So they put them in the sea. Blue graveyard.
Very sad... They were so young.
Also, threw out Albania, Albanians killed them too in creatve ways. Even tho they were hungry and weak.
🇷🇸 I'm glad you understand our song about Ramonda because it's a resurrection flower in the true sense - it hibernates and is born again when it rains!
I wish everyone new a positive spiritual resurrection and peace throughout Europe and the world like Ramoda !!!
Welcome in 🇷🇸 Serbia next year on Eurovision song contest !
Thank you for great reactions. Read what Ramonda means using google.
Totaly top2
Ramonda serbica - the phoenix flower, an endemic, relict plant of southeastern Serbia, is a symbol of the Serbian victory in WWI and the enormous sacrifice that the Serbian people made for their freedom and the freedom of neighboring nations. A third of the total population lost their lives, but the Serbian nation rose from the ashes like a phoenix. The song is about the pain of loss and the hope of resurrection!
She is a Berkley graduate and everyone feels like they are music experts 😂😂😂 can yall do better? Did u even read translation?
I did and its darn amazing.
U didn't get the meaning at all sadly, sorry😂
Ramonda is a flower!Symbol of strength and grow up only in Serbia!
1.This is not a Balad, it is Serbian Tužbalica or grief song. It is a lullaby form song that a mother would sing to the baby while griefing for the lost son, husband, father, brother since Serbs were dying left and right for centuries.
2.The Ramonda is a flower methaphor for Serb, and the song sings about Serbian lost of 60% of male population in Great War and 1 third of people.
3.The Sea is Ionian sea where Serbs threw the dead as there was no place to burry the dead.
4.The rocks are the Island of Corfu where Serbs rested and healed.
Oh, god its not, its modern balad
I have heard many times that the Ramonda song is a lullaby. Given that my language is Serbian and I understand every word as well as the lyrical meaning, I would not call this song a lullaby or a ballad, but I would call this song a scream in the silence of a wounded soul.
This song is modern ballad never heard before in Eurovision what dedicated to those who survived the worst possible suffering, faced with death and left to their own devices in that struggle.
The one who understands the song, cannot fall asleep listening to it, actually cries like a child.
If you've cried listening to a song by Celine Dion "My Heart Will Go On", then you'll understand why people cry listening to Ramonda or why some people get chills and goosebumps who don't understand the lyrics as well as any single word. That's why I call it the song of pure emotion and a reflection of our souls.
You were close about drowning. Many Serbians soldiers who died after walking through Albanian mountains died on the island of Korfu and had to be burried in the sea.
🌸💜🌸💜🌸💜🌸
It’s stunning song, gr8 voice 🔥
2:37 Someone did die. In this war time, Teya's Ramonda is a peace song. 5:33 As I see it, Teya is actually singing a new version of "Where have all the flowers gone" and if you know that song, you will understand that Ramonda is an anti-war song. Ramonda is the flower which symbolises the end of WW1, and Teya is saying "Where have all Ramondas gone" as once did Marlene Dietrich.
My favorite. Love from Türkiye❤
❤❤❤ teyaaa 🎉
Teşekkürler selamlar efendim 🙋🎁
Ramonda serbica, a rare flower that grows in southern Serbia. Known for its remarkable resilience, this plant has the unique ability to revive when watered, even from a fully dehydrated state-an attribute commonly referred to as desiccation tolerance.
❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
No1 ...🎉❤
Honestly, felt the same as Tyler the first time I heard the song, like eh is this it? But the more I listened to it, the subtlety of it got under my skin. I think the song is perfet like this.
Ramond":
[Stanza 1]
I don't have it, I don't have it, I don't have it
I have no peace, I have no sleep
Don't let night come day
Woe to him who is alone
Stanza 2]
Like under water, everything is quiet
I'm screaming, but I can't hear Behind the mountains a white glow, I can't see the end
This time is for the wounded
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's no one to lead me To the bright star of Danica The world is burning, every flower Where have the lila ramondas disappeared?
[Chorus]
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda
lila ramonda,
lila ramonda ramonda,
lilac ramonda
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda
[Pre-Chorus]
And there is no one to guide me
Because the stars are all asleep
Not even prayers help
Where did the lilac ramondas go?
[Transition]
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda [
Chorus]
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda
lila ramonda,
lila ramonda Ramonda, l
ila ramonda
lila ramonda,
lilac ramonda
[End]
It rises from the ashes
One lilac ramonda
It is an endemic, relict species that grows on the Balkan Peninsula.
The symbolism of this flower is multiple for the Serbian people, considering that, although it was tortured in the battles, it showed its power and courage in the war.
She survived Golgotha and disproportionate suffering in relation to the number of the population, but she came out of the war as a winner and managed to establish her state and sovereignty.
The ramonda flower grows in the east of Serbia and on Kajmakčalan, and in Greece, whose highest peak is St. Ilija, and where the Serbian army, under the command of Živojin Mišić, fought fiercely before the breakthrough of the Thessaloniki front in the First World War.
Therefore, the life of this unusual flower has a special significance in connection with the war and the Serbian army in it.
Ramonda is a flower not a persons name
someone died ? about 15 million in WWI !
Maybe you should pay more attention to the meaning of the text, look at the translation and the meaning of the song .
put the pens down and enjoy the music...
For sure all serbian kids at schools learn about Vila Ramknda. Her song is a perfect picture of Serbian culture. Something happened to France this year? Did they have on the stage little red Ones?
It's so funny to watch you,knowing the whole meaning of the flower symbolism and the understanding of the history she sings about.
Also, the guesses you made at the very begining 🙄....but as long as you are gay!🎉
Teya Dora in fact is an artistic version of the female version of theodore ;)
Yoi are good
Probably my favorite national final this year except the winking song is a little boring to me. Somewhere in the middle it gets very repetitive and the high and lows not pronounced enough.
#unitedbymusic
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Can you try to find lyrics before commenting ?
I think they are intentionally not looking up anything, to give us a legitimate first impression
😂😂😂😂
It would help if you researched the lyrics of any Eurovision song before commenting on it, including its meaning. Doing so is easy and will help you be a more informed viewer.
This guy is not too deep.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
What a lovely bunch of people.
First you need to know what song means.......
🇷🇸❤️🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸💜💜💜💜💜💜
How hard is to turn on subtitles ????
I have the same feeling as Tyler. For me the song doesn't arrive where I assume it would arrive.
After the darkest moment where you lost almost any hope, you can't intensely explode, but you slowly rise up from the ashes. And you survive, that's the point.
WATCH PORTUGALLLL
Her name is actually Teodora, it is not name and surname.
