So many masterpieces in the National Selection and then this... • Average • Good #15 - I like it more and more! #14 - It’s still great, but getting bit boring... #13 - I don’t know how I could overrate this so badly, it’s rather meh. #12 - My favourite! Like it the more the more I listen to it! #11- Another ballad, but it’s well sung and also mysterious which I like!! #10 - The snippet seems amazing!
