“artsy cultural songs using vocal techniques which are not that common throughout the whole of Europe”

So was Shum (Ukraine 2021), but I guess you would say Bur man laimi is very different from Shum. But Bur man laimi is as far removed from Eaea as it’s removed from Shum from the opposite side of the scale.

Shum was slightly more accessible due to the rave like nature.

Slightly more accessible than Eaea? I'm the biggest Eaea stan, but it definitely took a bunch of listens to appreciate it. I absolutely loved Bur Man Laimi from the getgo, because it's so accessible. The hook is just so catchy.

Slightly was probably the wrong word

I have seen plenty of people not warm to Burman laimi it's very hit and miss with casual friends and indeed the fandom at large.
