SEMI FINAL TWO 2019 – CROATIA
Today Ida Andia from Romania turns her attention to CROATIA who is one of the songs in the second semi final.
Roko is a young singer who comes this year with a nice ballad; the composer/ his mentor is well-know in the Eurovision – the 2017 contestant of Croatia, Jacques Houdek. I like the mix of the English language with the Croatian one. He has a strong voice, on some parts a voice of an angel, but I think he will not qualify. I really love this song and it’s on 11th in my TOP (for this semi-final). But Roko could dare to dream he could make it – to pass in the Final.
