perfecto slovenia...
god luck rebeka good luck slovenia...
u got my vote
slovenian lyrics and stronger sound quality wiil make slovenia finish in top 5 i believe..Very good potential of win!
One of the worst Slovenian entries in my opinion since the debut.
I don't care whether she sings in Slovenian or English. I definitely prefer her not to sing at all. At least not this song.
Remix version isn't so strong!!! I hope she will turn it back to original version!!
Please in slovenian!!!
The song is really good.
Hehe, no amount of remixing or translating can save the Slovene entry if she turns up in that pukey reseda-green frock we saw last night in Greece (the eyesore of the evening). 
A simple black spandex dress would prove to be helpful (a little).
i hope she sings in slovenian and that they change it back to the original arrangement/production
she seems really nice though
God... she's so amazing! You can totally tell what a nice and funny person this is by watching this video! I love Rebeka, she's got natural charm!
Hmm... I am okay with the last chorus in English but the rest has got to stay in Slovenian!
Well, Rebeka is a wonderful woman, I believe in her and I am very positive about her qualifying...
Go, Slovenia!
Oh, and "Pojdi z menoj" was a wonderful song... my favourite in 2005!
Slovene's are really the experts with translating the lyrics. Ne ni res (it isn't true) they translate into energy-ecstasy and vrag naj vzame (to hell with) into heavy weather :-P i think the major concern isn't in which language will she sing. the problem is that slovene's didn't choose the latino rmx of the song. i'm sure if she would participate at EMA with this rmx, we surely wouldn't sent her to belgrade.
Not good enough !!!!!WILL BE RUN OVER BY THE IRISH TURKEY
On the night only last chourse will be in english... otherwise she will sing the original lyrics
Full slovenian please !and don't like the new version 
love Rebeka though 
The English version is crap, I don't like it. Why Rebekka???? Turn it again in Slovenian!!!

well "Samara" was my favourite in the Slovenian final this year but i like this song too..
Good luck from Greece to beautiful Rebeka
The Slovenian song is in my top 3 so far, just as they were last year. Great that it'll be kept in Slovenian, no one needs another song in bad English. And for those who "need" to "understand" a ESC song, a last chorus in English will be more than enough!
Go Rebeka, we are with you! But you should sing in slovenian.
Well, I think she should sing the whole song in Slovenian, it's much better that way, but at least it's a relief to know it will be *mostly* in Slovenian 
She should stay in Slovenian - it's much better than the English one...
sweetheart stick to slovenian- this version is nasty
You ruined your song
It was so good in the 1st version and now it has some Spanish influences in the sound.
and the message of the song is different to the hell with it it was better
Nice song, ridiculous english lyrics. Why do after the win of Molitva the countrys still insist of changing song in english (Hungary) or singing the last third in english? It didn't help Germany, Macedonia, Iceland and Netherlands last year.
She's just LOVELY!
i really love this song, good luck Slovenia Glad that parts o fot will be kept in Slovene 
It is a touchiug, strong and powerfull pop song! and the most important thing it is not stupid! and that is not cheap! The pop songs these days are really cheap and with stupid lyrics... Rebeka has a qonderfull pop song! and She HAVE to make to the final cause she is great performer the song is powerfull and it has big chances!
