[@AmaanStorm]

I'm feeling this. If the staging is fire, this will effing SLAY so hard! Love the bass and the melody. Its such a sexy little mid 2000's influenced dance track and it packs a real punch! If I was Sini, I would rock a modern twist on a 1920's flapper look and stand in the centre acting cheeky with a microphone stand whilst four dancers serve an intense choreography whilst an amazing L.E.D light show bathes them in colours and movement. I love this song!!!!

[@gloriachenhuizhi]

This is ADDICTION! Another year, another great selection of UMK, Sini and Sara my favorite. This song in fact in the theme of the lyrics resembles Cha Cha Cha, but it's so true that life is quite stressful for many people. I like how in Finland they have great social awareness of providing psychological help to people in need, like in a few of the songs here therapy is mentioned. I have a Finnish friend who worked as a school teacher and she told me that she got permission for leave and quality psychological assistance when she was stressed from work. I think every modern society should look to this example.
