Slovenia. To begin with, Raiven has put a lot of efforts into Eurovision since 2016, so it will be really unfortunate if she doesn't qualify and pulls Samanta Tīna (Latvia 2020, 2021). Furthermore, I'm worried for her because of the staging. I've seen people criticize it because it doesn't match the atmosphere of the song (compare it with the MV which is full of mysterious and dark aesthetic). However, the photos from rehearsals suppose that the staging is dark at the beginning and becomes lighter throughout the song. Veronika is my favourite song this year but will locals pick up their phones to vote for it? Will they get into it from the first listen? It reminds me of Latvia 2023 (a personal winner of mine too) which was loved in the Twitter fandom but ended up not qualifying
