Eleven years later, I still listen to this masterpiece.

[@ingridnorman7919]

12 and still hits the same ❤

[@Mariechen1981]

13 years😊

[@yolandasamuels3213]

13 years and this is still a great song!

[@brandon3872]

My favourite song of Eurovision 2011, I keep coming back to watch this years later. Loving the 1960's vibe.

[@bazzab44]

Jason Leer I'm with you mate. Awesome track. My 2nd best track ever in Eurovision after Loreen euphoria 👍. But this is awesome.

[@DraganCheGagi]

Great lyrics, though.

[@ivamandekic7413]

me to :D i'm doing it now in 2022 :D

[@olyako1998]

Omg, I still loving this song too. Nina is a beautiful woman with amazing vocals. And Serbian language pleases my ears.

[@SaraESC]

Why didn't this song get a better place? Excellent performance, excellent song, excellent singer... Love it! 12 points from Spain! Thumbs up if you love it too!

[@LakiLeGarcon]

Sara ESC live performance wasn't that good I must admit.

[@cloudsmiles1]

I love the fact they sing in Serbian. It gives a better atmosphere in the Eurovision when there are more of variety in the languages. With that said, this is an excellent song! So much vibrant life and happiness. 12 points from La Suéde

[@DraganCheGagi]

The chorus says 'My man is ma-giii-caaaal !' 🤗💗

[@rafomic4210]

Lyrics: Ciča zima i svud je prokleti led Baš sam imala težak dan Ljudi čudni su, niko ne zna za red Kući vučem se umorna I dok kopam po tašni da pronađem ključ Već na ivici nerava Moje sunce, moj mesec i zvezdice sve Moj muškarac mi otvara Moj je čovek na vratima I istog trena vredim kao hiljadu žena Jer njemu sam lepa i jaka k'o stena I kad me grli, znam da sve je u redu Čovek je čaroban Sve moje mrakove u proleće boji Od kad me voli, ja uspravno stojim I njemu, ja sam dobra baš kakva jesam Čovek je čaroban Zbogom, tugo i zdravo, osmehu moj Sreća s' njim se doselila Tako topao, nežan i predivno svoj Samo meni on pripada Dugo pričamo, moj je najbolji drug S' njim se smejem k'o blesava Ljudi mi kažu nisu videli par Koji tako isijava Naša ljubav je zarazna I istog trena vredim kao hiljadu žena Jer njemu sam lepa i jaka k'o stena I kad me grli, znam da sve je u redu Čovek je čaroban Sve moje mrakove u proleće boji Od kad me voli, ja uspravno stojim I njemu, ja sam dobra baš kakva jesam Čovek je čaroban I istog trena vredim kao hiljadu žena Jer njemu sam lepa i jaka k'o stena I kad me grli, znam da sve je u redu Čovek je čaroban Sve moje mrakove u proleće boji Od kad me voli, ja uspravno stojim I njemu, ja sam dobra baš kakva jesam Čovek je čaroban Čovek je čaroban

[@frankosborneuk]

Great song and singer. Stunning girl backing group. Looks a little dated but that's what I like about it. Far too good to win Eurovision.

[@ZakhadWOW]

the "dated" thing was an intentional reference to the 60s style of music and dress. As someone who was a little boy in the 60s it's a great flashback to my early.

[@quriOusmOOn]

Still after so many years, I absolutely love this woman and this song. Truly magical. Imagine my face when they didn't wear that year. Serbia should have definitely won for sure.

[@papaquonis]

Oh, I remember voting for this one. Great song!

[@yadayadapete8400]

Still loving Nina singing Čaroban in 2021 🎶🎶🎶

[@Immigrantwriter]

jestem z Polski, troche rozumiem, SUPER ta piosenka po Serbsku!!! pozdrawiam!

[@lukasdziadosz7186]

Love from polish man in Australia

[@Gotfong]

She is fantastic! Bring her to the US. This girl has talent!. Love her back-up singers too! Regards from California!

[@miwakotachibana7905]

That song was truly magical... I still remember it!

[@leighduffell1281]

still love this song after 3 years :D

[@dzonsmitjutjub]

What about four more

[@sanjamatsuri]

Nina and girls are magical!... the best Serbian entry ever!

[@christofferringstrom1878]

Best song ever

[@milenazivojinovic1002]

Predivna Nina, bozanstven glas i interpretacija, ne pamtim ni da je neko napisao ovako mocan, autentican zenski tekst kao Kristina Kovac, kao i muziku, a tek refren je prava poslastica: "sve moje mrakove u prolece boji", s pravom je pobedila u Srbiji u konkurenciji sa clanovima svoje poredice kao autorima pesama za Euro Song Contest, a trebalo je da pobedi te godine i na Euro Song-u, puno srece u zivotu i radu Nina i Kristina!!! Poljubac za Vas!

[@milojovovich]

The REAL winner. Greetings from Spain. I love it.

[@mikesinclair7135]

Absolutely............. Magical as the song says!! Should have won it

[@Jeshikun]

This is amazingly catchy. When I saw the crazy 60s styling I was expecting another Danzing but the song is actually incredibly fantastic.

[@Bakshishi]

Love the 'happinness' the song exudes. I just don't understand how it could be ranked so low.

[@SilverStrumer]

This was my favorite that year. Very gutted that it ended up outside Top 10. 12 points from New Zealand.

[@pederman15]

i like the backup singers in this version. amazing song. nothing else come close.

[@bunds1986]

One of my fave songs this year! Serbia you have my vote :D Greetings from Hungary

[@Mezczynapolska]

This is a good song, nice and enjoyable. Good job Serbia, in general, the songs have have come from Serbia tend to be very nice, and also sung in the native language, which is kinda rare for Eurovision.

[@brentvsmaximvsone]

I don't even pay attention to Eurovision and I love this song

[@mykelowe]

Magical

[@user-wo3sl3cu9n]

Absolutely amazing. Brilliant, the BEST song that year.

[@Sydney83]

Sounds like Bridget Jones Diaries soundtrack or something. Very catchy and nice.

[@maiko60]

[@brandon3872]

sangreazul46 I agree, I'm from the United Kingdom and look forward to Eurovision every year. Often the best songs are in languages I don't understand but that doesn't bother me, I love hearing them. One of my favourites was Moldova in 2009.

[@OwIHaveUrPancake]

I hate the fact that people hate countries that done bad in the past.Will you just forget about that and listen how the woman has a magical voice? God dam it

[@MrEasyskanker]

[@bagzi303]

Freezing cold and damn ice everywhere I’ve really had a rough day People are weird, nobody has manners I’m dragging myself home, tired And while I’m digging through my purse to find my key losing my nerve already My Sun, my Moon and all of my stars my man opens the door my man is at the door And at the same moment I’m a thousand women worth because, to him, I’m beautiful and strong as a rock and when he holds me, I know everything is alright the man is magical

[@Magnoliade]

Great song!!! 12 points from Lithuania!

[@iavorst]

I actually really like this song. One of the few good ones. I`m not exactly smitten by the visual conception, but the voice and the music (no idea about the lyrics) were more than good. Greetings from Bulgaria :)
