''Frans'' of this year.
Freedom of opinion for everyone. But this comparison really hurts me.
"If I were sorry" on the same level as "City Lights", really?
I voted for Belgium last night Should have been top 3!
Blanche's performance was great, so so much better than in the semi-final and in the rehearsals! I am very glad the Portuguese people rewarded her with 10 points in the televoting!
I was genuinely happy for Blanche's smile when she saw Belgium's televote score, it made my heart melt
Quite astonishing that one of the more current, unique and frankly best entries wouldn't even have qualified to the finals if it was up for the so called "experts" in the juries, apparently the meaningless wailfest of Georgia amongst other inferior entries were better than this gem. Again why do we have juries? I will never understand...

Maybe because the live performance was terrible and awkward?
I didn't know this was a pure wailing contest? But apparently Georgia and Czech, two of the least memorable or current entries, were better than an actual current and somewhat original pop song? The juries prove that they are clueless, I mean if they are only put to judge vocals, then why not turn this into European American Idol, let the singers sing karaoke, why spend time on finding original songs when it's apparent it doesn't matter in the end? Someone wailing the telephone catalogue would still get more jury points than something actually interesting. SInging and performances do matter, but this is a song contest first and foremost with the concept to find the best song, not just another lame "talent show", people are surely brainwashed with The Voice and other crap shows, it's a shame that Eurovision is no longer about the songs.

It is not a pure wailing contest.
I don't deny the qualities of the song. But to see them it's needed a proper performance and I just felt so fear and awkwardness from it that I couldn't see any of the qualities I used to see in the studio versión.
It's a live contest and in the end it got a 4th place after a much better performance in the final.
Performance level is a big part of the scoring. And her performance in the jury show was not good. Tamara was excellent, despite the not great song. Also, current doesn't = good. Juries shouldn't award points for just that reason.
Thankfully in the final she put on a fantastic performance and deserved her position.
