My father also liked Belgium (even though his favourite was Ukraine) so maybe Belgium got the elusive Boomer vote. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really does not sound like 1944 to me though? 1944 was still a fully pop song, but Shum is more ethno-dance/folk-dance. They are not even in the same language. I like the song, because it has energy and it dares to be different and it is a marvellous combination of cultural heritage and modern sounds. However you have to keep in mind that one of the most popular recent bands in Estonia does something similar - combines folk with pop/rock so maybe my country just likes this stuff. I would not be surprised if there was a large geographical divide in the votes in a sense that Eastern-Europe loves the song and Western-Europe not so much as many Eastern-European countries have a similar folk-song heritage/sound with Ukraine.
