I’ve tried to write
A million other songs but
Somehow I can’t move on, oh you’re gone

Takes time, alright
And I know it’s no one’s fault but
Somehow I can’t move on, oh you’re gone

Saudade
Saudade
Nothing more that I can say
Says it in a better way

Saudade
Saudade
Nothing more that I can say
Says it in a better way

Tem tanto que trago comigo
Foi sempre o meu porto de abrigo
E agora nada faz sentido
Perdi o meu melhor amigo

E se não for demais
Peço por sinais
Resta uma só palavra

Saudade
Saudade
Nothing more that I can say
Says it in a better way

Saudade
Saudade
Nothing more that I can say
Says it in a better way

Nothing more that I can say
Says it in a better way

I’ve tried, alright
But it’s killing me inside
Thought you’d be by my side always

I think Syro is almost a given based on his interviews and questionnaires for RTP. He seems to love Eurovision.
Aurea is almost certain too I'd say.
Agir and Syro already hinted about singing their songs.
Aurea is in silence about FdC.
Teresa Salgueiro would be amazing for the lineup but she is not even an invited composer... What composer would take her? Fábia Rebordão?

I have a good feeling about the songs...
And from the quizzes from FDC Instagram, I could notice a good knowledge from Aurea about FDC...

If I got a penny for everytime „saudade“ appears in a portuguese song, I could retire. :mrgreen:
It's called "Lebensgefühl" :sneaky:

Aurea is super boring. I appreciate the fragile lyrics but overall, it is just a non-event for me - partly too cheesy
Not even the "dramatic" ending of the song could save the whole entry for me.

Shocketh to hear German lines in Inês Homem de Melo – Fome de Viagem

Oo :de: in :pt: ? xD​


unfortunately, it´s a grammatically wrong sentence in the lyric video but still super cute:
"Ich fahre jedes Autobahn"
(she sings it correctly, though: "Ich fahre jede Autobahn".)

So far, I think that besides Fado Bicha, I´ll settle for this to be my favourite

The first seconds of "DÉGRÁ.DE" reminded me of the sound of Untitled Goose Game (if anyone here knows that game haha) :ROFLMAO:

Thats all I can say so far. I need to listen, let's go!

He's also my favourite. Who is the favourite to win though, who has got the biggest fanbase before the live performances?

Great we share the same favourite.

I think that Aurea is the most famous one? She has also won the MTV Europe - Best Portuguese Act twice and her singles and albums are very successful (like almost hitting #1 in Portugal most of the time).

Not sure about her fanbase, though (if they really pick up the phone to vote for her) or if other acts have become more social media-friendly and so on...
