Earlier today, well above sea level in the mountain resort of Bukovel, Ukraine’s search for its 2014 Junior Eurovision representative came to an end, with Sympho-Nick winning the ticket to Malta.
Their song, “Priyde Vesna”, which translates as “Spring Will Come”, is an ethnic style ballad which showcases the trios’ fruity vocals. Their turquoise nightgowns and mystical background brought a little bedtime magic to the stage.

The trio, consisting of Sofia Kutsenko, Amalia Krymska, and Marta Rak, formed after winning the kids show “Music Academy Eurovision”. Today is their lucky day: they were given equal points by both the jury and televoting.
Full Televoting Results:
The show, crammed with folk ballads and occasional teenybopper jams, paid homage to beloved Ukraine. Kids know how to love!
As we previously announced, Ukraine 2013 representative Zlata Ognevich and one half of Eurovision 2011 winning duo Eldar Qasimov debuted their song “Ice and Fire”, while Gaia Cauchi performed the dance version of her winning song “The Start” – on playback! As it usually goes, Ukraine’s previous representative Sofia Tarasova was also an interval act, where she performed her new song.
Can Priyde Vesna win for Ukraine? Were you surprised to see Gaia singing on playback? Write in the comments below!

I actually really enjoy it and it’s probably one of my favourite Ukrainian entries, it gives me that ethnic vibe that “Nebo” gave. However, this isn’t the type of song 10-12 year olds would like, maybe 13+ and up would but I’m not sure. I would’ve liked it at that age but I’m into all this weird indie/folky music 😛
Ukraine already came last in 2010 – so they can only get lower if more than 14 countries participate.
It has the feel of Georgia 2009–that country’s worst result. Just a bit boring…
Nothing special! Sorry
i agree with beccaboo1212
Gaia was obviously playbacking XD
I was really suprised by the results… There were two treegirls, I rooted for them TBH xD This song is probably Ukraine’s worst JESC entries in years XD
Sorry. “We Are One” was better.
@Matt: it’s when artists don’t sing live and lip-sing with the original track in the background.
What’s playback?
Are you kidding me? These are real televoting results? If I don’t know which country’s results they are, I would quess San Marino’s!
And of course good luck to them. They weren’t my favourites, but they sound good together. They should be proud! 🙂
Didn’t all the performers in the interval act playback? I though I saw Eldar & Zlata and Sofia playbacking too?
Gaia probably singing on playback because she is probably sick of yelping out that song
