Montenegro 2022: Vladana with ‘Breathe’

Montenegro’s first participation in a few years sees Vladana represent the country with ‘Breathe’ :

Unfortunately for Montenegro, one of the least competitive types of entry is the big ballad which gives of no emotion and feels completely flat (see Slovenia last year for a similar example). I appreciate the meaning behind this it holds for Vladana but I don't think that translates at all. It feels like this is straight from 2007 whilst the production and tempo make it quite messy.

A lot of people have commented on the enunciation and yeah it might have been a best not to send this in English. Vladana has a nice voice but it's lost here trying to get through this.

I was expecting this to be slightly better (at least borderline q) but sadly I don't see this making it out of the semi although Serbia and North Macedonia should ensure it's not left with an embarrassing points total.

Personal Rating: 3/10

Competitve Rating: 2/10

Early Prediction: Semi 2 14th-18th
