Here is what we think about the entries of Dora 2024:

Sebi:

“Croatia gifts us with a diverse and interesting line-up this year. I am very glad to hear so many songs in native language. My personal favourites on a first listen are Andel Dures, Let 3, Misha and Vatra but this can likely change once the songs have more time to grow on me.”

Dave:

“One of the most competent national finals so far. Croatia would not be put to shame with any of these in Malmö. But Let 3 is the clear standout for me!”

Jan:

“Wow, Croatia went all-in! We have so many well produced tracks this year, I have a feeling Croatia properly stepped up the game this year! It’s going to be an amazing national final, I’m so excited!“
