Thanks to participating broadcaster LTV: @LTVSupernova

~~~~~ Lyrics provided by LTV ~~~~~

You said some words
Didn't hear you fall asleep
People were talking louder
From my TV screen
I heard them scream
It was too dark to see

Don't cry, I'll try to
Say the right words at the right times
Sing you lullabies
Please don't wake up wake up

Used to think we live
In a world so beautiful
You see
I think I don't believe
In this stuff anymore

Don't cry, I'll try to
Say the right words at the right times
Sing you lullabies
Please don't wake up wake up

Don't cry, I'll try to
Say the right words at the right times
Sing you lullabies
Please don't wake up wake up

Please don’t make me wake
Don’t make me wake
Please don’t wake up wake up

Aijā (Lull)
Aijā (Lull)
Saldā miegā (In sweet sleep)

Aijā
Aijā
Saldā miegā

As an artist, I need to say that this is pure art and probably one of the best entries this year.

[sierrapartridge]

I’m here to mourn this masterpiece not making it through to the GF. We love you Latvia!!! 12 points from the U.S

[Sonia-Sally]

Latvia deserved to be in the final for its quality composition, its own style and its elegance. It is a pity that they do not know how to value it. From a disappointed Spanish eurofan.❤😢

[lorenabateau]

2 years have passed and I still remember this masterpiece. It was my fav one of ESC 2023. Love from 🇪🇦

[TheKaroleq]

Probably not for a eurovision audience but that is a master classe Indie Spotify song! My fav in eurovision, greetings from 15 years watching eurovision fan from Poland! 33# in odds? Funny! GO LATVIA! 🇵🇱🇱🇻

[tunderbreaker]

It's been a year. And still I think is the most underrated song of last year. THIS SONG SLAPS

[emilsrotgalvis]

Very proud of Sudden Lights for representing my country at the ESC. This is something very authentic, very thoughtful and very Latvian.

[lisanordic]

This song is far above the level of the Eurovision. Having it on repeat on my Spotify, like this is what I casually listen to and I didn't expect to hear anything like this on ESC <3

[Noirie]

I really like how he sings in Latvian at the end. Such a charming language

[PuppyGames.]

Sudden lights was in my personal top 3 since the beginning. Absolute masterpiece of a song and I was gutted I wouldn't be hearing it again at the grand finals.

You should be proud!

[someothername]

For me, this song perfectly encapsulates how the world is right now. We’re trying to find any type of comfort to save us from chaos. I’m rooting for Latvia from the U.S. and I really hope that this song qualifies to the finals. ❤️

[Duygut]

Its been more than a month since the Eurovision and I still listen to this song. It wasn’t a random Eurovision song that people forget in a week. Its deep.

[dandeonly]

Never getting tired of this, it gets better with each listen. We NEED them in the grand final, they deserve it so much.

[Super-JD]

Not the kind of songs that win Eurovision and yet the most quality entry we had for years. This goes right into my playlists! Good job 🇱🇻

[sebastianperezpizarro]

Dear latvians: you must be proud for this piece of art. This is so meaningful! It deserves a good place, because it's so avant-garde. I feel listening an alternative radio.

Greetings from Chile 🇨🇱

[SpectacularSuperSoup]

So good. So sad they didn't qualify.

Every year there's at least one amazing song that doesn't make it. I'm sorry that fate befalls Latvia once again.

Much love from Lapland!!

[SceneGirlPanda]

this song brings me so much comfort and there’s just something about it that’s so nostalgic and soothing like a lullaby. not to mention how catchy it is! i’ve wanted sudden lights to represent latvia since 2018 and now they get to do it with the beautiful song aijā. please massvote for them in the 1st semifinal! they deserve to be in the final 💕🇱🇻

[annapetlovana]

I don’t care about qualifications - this is the best Latvia song for many years ❤

[anahitghukasyan]

Thank you Latvia for this masterpiece, i will always protect this entry, will vote for you, hope to see you in final❤️🇱🇻

Can’t believe this was my #1 song of 2023, congrats sudden lights on creating a truly year long captivating song!
