Ilinca feat. Alex Florea - Yodel It video

Yodeleiooo! Romania‘s power duo Ilinca feat. Alex Florea have released the official video for “Yodel It!”, the song that won Selectia Nationala 2017. The “Yodel It!” video was filmed in Ilinca’s hometown of Cluj Napoca in Transylvania.

In the video, Ilinca is walking around town clad in a flowy, canary yellow dress when she notices Alex perched on top of a tall CGI tower. Dressed in his trademark dark clothes, Alex is singing to her. Soon enough, Ilinca also finds herself on top of a tower, yodeling with Alex to the city below. Other people join in on the fun and new towers spring up all around them, in a joyful chorus.

The visuals highlight the positive message of the song but also the beauty of Cluj Napoca, Ilinca’s home town that serves as a backdrop. The video was sponsored by Visit Cluj, a tourist programme run by the city hall.

“Yodel It!”, which was originally meant for Timebelle in Switzerland, was written by Al Mike, who has also recently released the Euroclub-ready official remix.

Ilinca Bacila and Alex Florea have been busy promoting the “Yodel It!” throughout Europe and are now preparing the last details for the staging for Kyiv. They will be joined by Alex’s brother, who will provide the backing vocals. The two singers promised us that things would look very different from the national final of Selectia Nationala. If the idea behind the staging is as original as the video, things are literally looking up for the Romanian power duo. Ilinca and Alex have their first rehearsals scheduled for 2 May at 13:40 local time.

If you enjoyed the video, you can now vote for it in our Best video poll on wiwibloggs.

What do you think about the “Yodel It!” video? And how would you stage Romania’s song in Kyiv? Sound off below and on the wiwibloggs app!

Loved it in the Kiev performances. I cannot hear it often enough, It is the only song in the ESC 2017 (including my own country’s) that I really like and that I include in my list of all time favourites with other songs that make me feel happy.
Ilinca and Alex exude energy and they rather than compete complement each others voices and the background support of Alex’s brother is a nice touch because his voice blends in so well.

This song is great and they were fantastic live on stage in London too. It’s hard to see how anyone could hate this, it’s such fun. the video is nice too, but it gives me vertigo (hello Malta).

There is nothing special about the video, it’s like they don’t even tried to come up with some original ideas. She is walking through the city for some seconds, then she is up on that “tour” and just sings. Same for him. There is nothing to understand from the video. It’s average and that’s it. It’s a shame.

The videoclip is nice, but the song is very bad. I liked their previous entries (especially De la Capat!!), this one is true disaster. Hopefully it won’t make it to the final, because there are better songs.

adriana People got different opinions about each song and they share it with others, you like it or not, you need to respect it. You can’t call anyone “crap people” just because they have different musical taste than you, stay cool!

The ones i called crap are the ones who actually have no other things to do ,than repeating themself like a broken tape…One thing is to bring constructive critics and honest opinion and another thing is to be a moron so thats the people i was talking about.

From a simple analysis of detractors’ comments, syntax of the phrase, use of the comma, the poor vocabulary Google translate peculiar, it can be concluded that the only grumbling guys are… Romanians.
Ilinca and Alex explain so often their artistic message – happines and youthfulness, the grumblers keep it about the call of the sheep.

Shame because I’d love to see Romania host a Eurovision in the future.

I like light, happy songs, from Jedward to Ilinca+Alex, from Verka Serduchka to SunStroke Project, and if somebody makes fun of Eurovision, you must know that without acts like these, Eurovision wouldn’t be so famous, is nothing to be ashamed of.

Actually this video is good, because they not only mixed yodel with rap-pop-rock, but now they even made yodel – URBAN. In the beginning yodel was a sound used in the country side to call the sheep.

just one little extra thing you might not know, those people in the video are some of Ilinca’s fans 🙂

they had a sort of contest which people could sign up to be in the music video, so those people were the ones selected

but i agree it has joy and love, it really suits the song, and her dress wow yellow really looks good on her 🙂
