Which snippets sound most promising to you? 🇱🇻

[@lostmindCroatia]

For now it's Citi Zēni, Sinerģija and Tautumeitas (yes I'm a Tautumeitas defender idc what anyone else says) and Markus Riva

[@esc_stan_uk]

monster, something in the water, stronger, ramtai and bur man laimi 😍

[@ievaklavina5913]

Its definitly līgo and grēta and Emily .

[@SleepyNoah15]

Tautumeitas - "Bur man laimi"

[@quickestcat40]

Tepat, The Ludvig, and potentially Tautumeitas. I want to hear more from KoBra and Julianna before making a call on them. Everything else is striking me as fairly generic.

[@Adelinamusic]

I LOVED your reaction to my song! Thank you 💖💖💖

[@Wiwibloggs]

We are ready to dance with you! 🎉

Tautumeitas for Eurovision!

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@nikita2174 They’re giving spirituality. They’re giving drama. They’re giving potential winner 🥇

[@rexation8952]

Not taking anything away from Dons runaway win at Supernova 2024, but I'm really glad that right now there is not an obvious frontrunner in Supernova 2025 and there looks to be an actual competition between many excellent entries this year!!! Actually putting this Supernova on my calendar to watch!! Love from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, US 🇺🇲

[@Wiwibloggs]

Competitive selections are definitely more fun. Can' wait to see how this pans out.

[@kir250305]

I loved the snippet from Citi zeni ❤

[@Wiwibloggs]

SO FUN!

[@AmaanStorm]

Literally cried laughing through most of this video 😂😂😂 I'm LOVING this energy from you two 😂😂😂 More of this feelgood Wiwi-goodness baby!

[@Wiwibloggs]

Thank you so much!! Love you 🥰

[@AndrewGVN]

Tautumeitas, Tepat, and Citi Zeni are the big stand outs for me. Looking at past performances Tautumeitas & Citi Zeni know how to stage so very promising stuff.

[@Wiwibloggs]

So many different genres!

[@kieranedmunds2936]

Latvia are stepping it up, fantastic If you told me this was EESTI LAUL id belive you. Plenty of potential with these snippets 👏🇱🇻🇬🇧

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@kieranedmunds2936 The GROWTH! 😀

[@eliasortuno4320]

Thank God is strong! After weak years for supernova, Latvia deserved better. 🙏🏼🫶🏼

[@NikolinePatals]

Wow,strongest Supernova to date!Such good songs!There are so many songs that I really,really like but I guess my top 3 which I absolutely love would be Greta,Citi Zeni and Sinerģija but as said I really like half of the songs.

[@Wiwibloggs]

The snippets have me so hyped for the live shows 🥰

[@escfanbaltic]

I’m so excited already. I missed you guys! 🥺

You guys are amazing❤

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@ananthakrishnac.s3807 Thank you so much for watching !

[@ievaklavina5913]

You might wanna buy tickets bc this year most of them are won or been in x factor. Also went to eurovision. And some of them have had succesfull songs in Latvia. This is going to be BIG night and biggest fight yet .

[@Wiwibloggs]

It's like an All-Stars edition!

[@ecilaagguman5958]

27:28 Tautumeitas, if they can translate the lord-of-the-rings-elf vibe to the stage then, they will be my favs

[@Wiwibloggs]

It feels EPIC 😇

[@dagnetuce]

Tautumeitas (if you separate it is like tauta which means nation and meita means daughter) when you see a woman or girl in traditional costume then you will say she is a tautumeita. Also fun fact TAUTUMEITAS has their signature - crowns.

[@dagnetuce]

Bur man laimi (meaning man laimi - to me happiness). I don’t know how to translate “bur”, but meaning is something like to make it happen with magic spells.

[@ksesc]

I am so looking forward to this video! 😍

[@Wiwibloggs]

Hope you like it! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@markuserikssen]

I'm living for these reaction videos with William and Deban! Supernova is remarkably strong this year! Is it me, or are there more Nordic influences this year? More Swedish producers or so?

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@markuserikssen Thank you 😀 It definitely seems like LTV want to LEVEL UP 💥

[@markuserikssen]

@@Wiwibloggs For sure!

[@wualaa]

Julianna is my favorite

[@rimmawolfie3193]

can't wait to hear the full song of chris noah, if you only heard his new album! and he's super talented song writer as well, working with the best musicians in latvia

[@mijime_]

Tautumeitas will bring Latvia their 2nd Eurovision win! I'm calling it 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻

[@Wiwibloggs]

Oh wow. Riga 2026?

[@mijime_]

@Wiwibloggs Riga 2026 🇱🇻✨️🇱🇻✨️

[@kir250305]

No, not Tautumeitas. Other songs are way better.

[@mijime_]

@kir250305 listen to their discography first, then make the decision

[@degviela]

Emilija Heartbeat my favorite❤❤ Good job to my country definitly the best selection since 2015 a lot of good contenders to go.

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@degviela YES! This is gonna be TOUGH

[@poxie2637]

the tautumeitas "bur man laimi" translates to aproximately "conjure 'laimi' (for me)" laimi, depending on context could mean either luck or happiness. the closest English lyrics that could make sense are something in the lines of "make me happy".

[@shovkovskyi]

you are pretty much spot on... it can be translated in different ways (only Tautumeitas can tell which way it is)... you can translate it as "Bring me luck" or "Conjure happiness" or "Make me happy"... probably a few more options... it's basically a self empowering song...

[@poxie2637]

@shovkovskyi hello fellow latvian (?)

[@shovkovskyi]

@@poxie2637 indeed :)

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@poxie2637 thank you for clarifying!

[@Wiwibloggs]

That's so lovely to hear. THANK YOU!

[@MarteIl0]

@@Wiwibloggs omg of course! i literally love you guys

[@shovkovskyi]

this will be a tough year, because unlike other years, when one or two songs had it pretty easy due to the artists having big fan groups, this year there are multiple such artists... Tautumeitas, Markus Riva (who always gets his fans behind him even if the song is bad), Citi Zēni have probably the biggest fan bases, but then there's also Emilija, who's fan base is growing quick, Marta and Grēta, who also have pretty sizeable fan bases, and a few others, who might not have big fan bases just yet, but could really surprise (like Vēstulēs did last year).

[@Wiwibloggs]

@@shovkovskyi this is gonna be a GREAT show 🤩 Love a COMPETITION!

[@Marie-rq2gp]

Tautumeitas pleaseeeeeee

[@tomlukomsky2611]

LIGO 🎉

[@Wiwibloggs]

[@dalilam3994]

I usually skip Supernova (it never really catches me) but this year there is some very very respectable entries, that have a proper chance of doing well at the contest and that I’m really excited to see on stage! Namely my Top 4 (based on the snippets): 1. Tautumeitas 2. Citi Zēni 3. Julianna 4. The Ludvig

[@Bondo0407]

My Favorites: Katrina Marta Palu Tautumeitas Sinergija

[@Wiwibloggs]

Best of luck to your favourites!

[@Wiwibloggs]

Thanks! We hope so too!

[@AnduWALY]

27:14 Tautumeitas is Folk Girls and Bur Man Laimi means Bring Me Luck

[@ESCErik]

My favorites so far are Sadzejot, Zelts and Something in the Water :) Was a bit sad after the reaction to Zelts, I don‘t really think it sounds that outdated and it has something magical to it imo, but I can definitely see why you guys don’t think so Anyways, I‘m excited for the release of the full songs because so many of them sound promising!

[@mich9el]

It reminds me a bit of Kur? from last year! And we saw how well that song did 👀

[@augustina8246]

hello there latvian indie king haha i 100% agree with you, can't wait until the complete release of those 3 songs

[@rasmusirlind8829]

still haven't listened to any of the supernova snippets, but i hear they're good! tautumeitas i hope has the best song since i really want to see a folk ensemble like them in eurovision, but i'm interested in hearing legzdina as well since i messaged her over instagtam back in october asking if she had considered participating in supernova and possibly eurovision

[@Skorpio994]

Julianna is my favourite giving me Amanita vibes

From the selections, I don't think that Latvia has a Eurovision winner but I think some could qualify. I would prefer the ones in Latvian would be selected. See you in Basel!

When will you make a video about the official ban of Israel? They just said on the news that Israel will be banned out of every European contest and sport event. There is an international attest against Netanyahu which all European countries signed. So we will not see them in Eurovision.

[@KevinChantal]

Where did you get that news? I dont see anything offical that says that Israel will be banned. On eurovisionworld there are still listed as participant.

[@GianniDN]

@ They said on the news today that Israel will be banned out of every event and sports. They should have done this much earlier.

[@KevinChantal]

@GianniDN What news are you talking about? Whats the name of this news channel?

[@ZanKraken]

What news is saying this?

[@GianniDN]

@ All news. When there is an arrest against a leader, the country get sanctioned, like Russia. They will get the same treatment as Russia and get banned out of every event and sports
