I had listened before when it came out and got bored of it quickly. But tbh. Theje didn't age well either.But thinking about it,  Albania gets a  from me for now. Sekret is a good song (and thanks, god, not a ballad for once). However, it's also a bit annoying and my favourite part is the first part of the chorus ("Hey ... "). |

I really enjoyed this song and this is my most favourite Albanian entry since 2015. I think it could further grow in me to get the 12 pointer. The song blends the traditional elements of Albanian music with modern synths in pop music very well, which reminds me of the modern Israeli pop music industry (though they sound very different obviously). Probably the song will be revamped by shortening the exceptionally long buildup to the instrumental drop and the opening. Nonetheless, this is the most Eurovision-ready song in years for Albania and I wish they don't revamp too much to remove the essence of this banger.

No no no no no no Please do not... It's got an Albanian Ethnic feel to it. Translating it to english would just take it away. I concur. As a native English speaker, y'all translating the songs into English makes them so f*beep*g GENERIC to me. Language is a beautiful thing and we should preserve them instead of Anglifying everything v_v I take it back  You are right, it should stay in Albanian

If I had my own way, I'd bring back the rule of at least 60% of a song having to be in the native language of the country being represented. |

 I see (and hear) a lot of effort being put in to the whole package. If I'm going off of the live performance in the national final, it's off to a great start. Although there are some cool ethnic elements unique from Albania, it does lean toward the generic type of ethnic banger at times. It packs a punch overall. It would be a shame not to see this advance to the final. I hope both juries and televotes can carry this song to a deserved qualification. |
