"Suus" (Latin pronunciation: [ˈsʊ.ʊs]; transl. "His" [m.sg.]) is a song by Kosovo-Albanian singer and songwriter Rona Nishliu. It was released as part of a CD compilation on 4 May 2012 by Universal Music. The song was written by the singer herself and composed by Florent Boshnjaku. Musically, it is an Albanian-language folklore-inspired ballad, which lyrically addresses an emotional circumstance reflecting the moments that occurred in the past and the expectations of insecure tomorrows.
The song represented Albania in the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest in Baku, Azerbaijan, after winning the country's pre-selection competition Festivali i Këngës. It reached the fifth place in a field of twenty-six, scoring a total of one hundred and forty six points and remaining the country's highest placement to date. During her minimalistic performance, Nishliu was performing alone in front of dark-coloured LED screens featuring red and white flashing lights in the background.
"Suus" received positive reviews from music critics upon its release, commending its authenticity and the singer's vocal delivery. An accompanying music video was premiered to the official YouTube channel of the Eurovision Song Contest on 17 March 2012. It visually amplifies the absurdity of life through an abstract art form simultaneously allowing the viewer to create a variety of interpretations. In 2012, the singer performed the song on multiple occasions in Cyprus, Hungary, Romania and the Netherlands.
