Wow, that was way better than I was expecting, thanks a ton to all y'all who voted :us: this month! I wasn't exactly sure how this one would pan out, but I'm glad to see it work out. It's probably my favorite Foster the People song (Pumped up Kicks is good, but hits to close to home having grown up in the 00s/10s)

I thank everyone for this victory :it: ! I didn't think I would win, because I saw that 4 consecutive countries had not given me points. In the end, with the last 7 countries I climbed the ranking, from eighth to first. A nice surprise!

an unexpected victory but one that has an emotional meaning for me. This song is for all the women mistreated by strangers, by exes, husbands, boyfriends. Especially for a girl who died a month ago in my city. Killed with a knife by a university colleague, because she didn't give him attention (she to already being engaged). He stalked her, sent her lots of messages, followed her under the house. Until she was alone and he acted by leaving her in the street covered in blood and running away like a rat. She was only 22 years old and had recently applied for her thesis for her degree.

The lyrics of the song "Figlia d' 'a Tempesta" which is in Neapolitan say:
"for all the wounds you left us
for all the lies you told us
for all the stabs we took
for all the promises never kept
for the dreams you stole from us
for the sisters you took from us and who never came back"

Thank you from my heart hred I didn't want to explain the meaning of the song beforehand and all this so as not to influence the users in their voting. But I think that many of you, unconsciously, have felt something in this song.

It makes me very sad that we seem to be having this conversation much too often these days.
The song becomes more powerful now that I know the true meaning behind it. Thanks for sharing @elanyvx hred

Many Congratulations to :it: Italy with FSC-victory!

My absolute favourites this month were: :us::rs::my: (great choices all!) but well done to all countries that ended in my top 10, you all sent enjoyable songs!

The countries that ended just outside my top 10 - & my points - this FSC-month, were (in no particular order): :es::ch::nl: Nice entries these too

Thank You to everyone for the votes/points (special thanx for the 12 pointers!) - and a good 9th place - for Norway in FSC #194 April.

My tribal ambient entry by AURORA was unconventional, something deliberately different from Norway, and perhaps a bit risky, to show added diversity, and I was uncertain how it would be received although I know AURORA with her creative artistic talent has a fanbase. I am very pleased to see it embraced by several members and enjoyed for its organic and unique musical nature :)


Here are the Norwegian Jury-votes for FSC #194 April

The Norwegian jury looks forward to presenting more Norwegian music for you in FSC #195 May!

Congrats :it:! Not my cup of tea, but it doesn't matter :) My Top 3 had 3 fantastic entries. Only one of them finished in Top 10, but all of them + :ua: ended pretty high, so it's a good outcome.

Thank you for points on :pl:! Outside Top 20, but I'm glad some of you liked it and was able to show you this one :D
xlove
