I found it at amazon.com. But just try to contact Noko Woi at their FB-page, they offered me to send a copy via inbox. I have no idea how this works, but you are a smart girl, you'll find out.

They have it on iTunes but it would be kinda nice to have a physical copy. :) I´ll check around some more :)

Exactely. The EBU must end this.

None of this Juries did something forbidden. Or do you want to force them to give Points to each other?

I am still in a state of dreaming and disbelief. For me personally, it completely feels like 2014 all over again, and even better.

Unfortunately we havent heard anything from him since then. And if you look on his Facebook, he writes only in portuguese.
If Kristian won , we could have discussions about russian press laughing his A.. off about Ukraine, broken Glasstrophys etc... :D :D
I fear that Salvador might become a more forgettable Winner than Marija and Emmelie, but i hope not.

His disease unfortunately stops him from doing a lot of press. He was invited to go on Jimmy Fallon on the US, to go to UK talk shows and to attend the Swedish king's annual concert, but he had to decline these invitations because he can't stay way from his medical team in Portugal for that much time anymore. It's a big shame :(

thank god Salvador is an artist and not a tabloid figure. he's busy, he's on tour and he 's on various other projects.
He can't be that sick if he's doing so many concerts... although his condition is serious, it mustn't be life threatening.

I doubt that a broken trophy would make a better or longer discussion than Salvador's speech :lol:

besides there's hasn't been a single winner from the last 20 years that's been memorable besides maybe Loreen, so I don't know why people have the need to diss on him :lol:

No, i dont diss him, he is a worthy opinion (even if Kris was better), but i find its a pity that he writes only in portuguese on FB and apparently doesnt care about his international Fans. And i think there were at least a few winners (Alex Rybak, Lena etc..) from whom we have heard since then.

Loreen isn't that memorable neither. Hardly anyone knows her outside the bubble. Maybe Lordi is the most memorable winner of the last 20 years.

Anyways, Salvador does not want to be star, he only wants to sing and cherish music. Nothing to blame him for.

But that's where you're wrong. They are not memorable. I haven't heard from Rybak unless it''s Eurovision related, and Lena I haven't heard anything at all and I live in Germany.
Besides, it's not Salvador Sobral who writes on his Facebook or any social media, it's someone from his team.

Loreen isn't that memorable neither. Hardly anyone knows her outside the bubble. Maybe Lordi is the most memorable winner of the last 20 years.

Anyways, Salvador does not want to be star, he only wants to sing and cherish music. Nothing to blame him for.

and Lordi only because they already had an international career before eurovision. I really don't understand all this complains.

, and Lena I haven't heard anything at all and I live in Germany.

Then you probably missed the leak from her naked pictures 4-5 months ago, which was enough discussions stuff :D And she had with "Traffic Lights" and "wild and free" 2 huge hits. And only last week she released her new single "if i wasnt your daughter". So i think she is memorable enough.

Let's be honest, Eurovision winners are stars at home, but not much more.

Lena, Nicole, Udo Jürgens and Conchita are stars in max. 2 countries.

Loreen may be the queen of the North. And Alex Rybak the king.

Eurovision does not bring international fame. Although the audience is big, it is a rather exclusive audience and they mostly dont tune in for the music but for which country is winning.

It is his management who is running his FB and instagram accounts.
We do have a Facebook group for international fans though (well two as it seem), and the portugese people there have been more than helpful and willing to translate for us who don´t speak portugese. :) xheart

Pls, don't forget Stardust xheart Lena and Mans are probably the only winners that I am still listening to.

This is so true. It is very rare to see someone going world wide, specially in recent years.
Balkan crew example: Kaliopi, Šerifović, Badrić, Hari Mata Hari, Joksimović, even Maya Sar are huge stars here, but their international careers (except ESC bubble) do not exist. And imo, that it is not necessarily bad. :)

Today's news from Portugal are horrifying and devastating. So many lives and homes lost!! Those pictures of cars on the road consumed by the wildfire are haunting. I hope everyone in this forum and their loved ones are well.

I almost happened to witness the wildfire last year on my vacation and it was a terrible sight of burned wood along the road and a scary imagination of the firestorm that eventually occurred.

I don't know why this year spells so much disaster and I don't mean terror attacks, but natural disasters and accidents. It reminds me of 1998-2002 when there was one event after another in Europe and particularly in my home country that claimed a lot of lives.
