Having said that, I must admit that this song isn't my favorite. It sounds and feels too familiar, like something I've heard before. Most of Bunji's fans won't care and will surely love the song. But to be sure, I feel that it sounds too reminiscent of past carnival hits and does not bring the excitement usually expected from a Viking music release.
So, what do you think? Do you believe "Thousand" will achieve success, or will it fall short of expectations for Carnival 2025? Share your thoughts below!
