My ratings:

1. Hollow (9/10) (The Latvian version is even better wub.gif )
2. Mine (8/10)
3. AI (7/10) (Outsold My AI by MILES, and THAT'S ON PERIODT!!! w00t.gif )
4. The Cat's Song (7/10)
5. Tick Tock (7/10)
6. kur? (7/10)
7. Wildfire (6/10)
8. Rock 'n Roll Supernova (6/10)
9. For the Show (6/10) (Imagine Markus Riva singing this rotf.gif )
10. Amsterdam (5/10)
11. Mind Breaker (5/10)
12. Love Is a Language (5/10)
13. Heaven's Raining Down on Me (4/10)
14. Na chystu vodu (4/10)
15. Outsider (2/10) (What in the TikTok f*ckboy is this?)

Top 5: 7.6/10
Overall: 5.87/10

I like that Latvia is doing something pretty different this year. Hope they select Hollow because that has the biggest potential to do the best, but I would be fine with Mine, AI and The Cat's Song, particularly latter where the staging could elevate the song a lot femboy dancers uwu.

switched over to this while waiting for results in Finland and have been greeted with both some rather cool pop-rap in Saint Levica (either this or 'Hollow' please from my skim listen of the tracks) and a track that seems like it was snatched from a time portal to 1974's studio waste paper basket in 'Rock 'n Roll Supernova', never change Latvia 💀

She was robbed

But "Hollow" is a solid entry and definitely putting an end to their NQ streak

Not as engaging as last year's song but they will have a better running order spot this year so they have a better chance of qualifying.

Don’t mind this song. Think people are expecting a non-qualification

Random q - can anyone else hear ‘Reasons I Drink’ by Alanis Morrissette on this song? (like a slower version of it)
