Eurofans seemed to like our song before it won FdC. More reactions than usual from unusual sites as well (wiwi for instance). Then Grito won and all the previous love disappeared. It's been downhill ever since. Very weird.
Same here. I can't connect with this year. I like 2 or 3 songs, but I'm not really really passionate about them and that never happened before. I didn't write in any threads yet (apart from my own country) or rated hardly any songs. It's a weird year personally :-/
It's basically about her finding strength to battle and overcome her struggles/ insecurities/inner demons (represented by the faceless dancers).
I wish there was a way to translate this even better on stage. It's pretty straightforward to portuguese speakers, but non speakers will probably...
People here loved and praised the staging concept. Her being engulfed by her inner demons and finally being able to break from them. So I believe they'll do some minor tweaks here and there, but the concept is set in stone.
I wouldn't be mad if he won over Iolanda, as I like him and part of the song... It's right up my alley, but it misses something. I think the song eventually becomes a bit flat by the end and João needs a bit more oomph on stage (fixeable).
Still my personal runner up.
