I believed this could make it though from the beginning, and after seeing the performance, it definitely deserved the final. Great staging and a refrain that instantly makes the song stand out.

I am happy for :ro: .

Embrace yourself for 200+ TV points tonight. This is a tune, the crowd will go crazy as well.

Let's break the curse of position 2, I think this will get some televote points, not sure it will be as much as 200+, but never say never in Eurovision.

This was not on my radar before Eurovision rehearsals started, but I've absolutely fallen in love with it and voted for it tonight. The performance is so fun and dynamic and the song is a banger that takes me straight to hot summer nights. I'll be singing "hola mi bebebé" for weeks to come to be honest.

Awful televote result to be honest. Moldova took their votes with this disgusting running order… he was great. 🔥

Ok, I can’t get this song out of my head. It’s really funny because it really sounds like “Niama me, niama me” which in Bulgarian means like “I’m not here “. Yesterday we all were singing it this way at our party, I even made a video lol.

Concerning the latest new story, I think they should count themselves lucky that they qualified for the final over more deserving songs anyway. I remember hearing someone elsewhere saying before the contest that they might withdraw if they didn't do well, but this wasn't the song to back up a desire to do well.

They did exceptionally well considering they had that cursed second slot in the final. One of the few performances I keep on rewatching because it was just so damn entertaining.

If Estonia came 2nd in the running order and Romania last, they would have swapped at least 50 points in the televoting or more.

The recency bias always works against the early entries, while a decent inoffensive act like Hope can get a decent score as well coming so late in the running.

Having a good position helps a lot. However Hope didn't have it's backscreen which made it totally dependent on his charisma and the more unique style song he had in this contest.

WRS had a more typical Eurovision style song, and arguably the Israeli entry was better (had more to it). And in the final Chanel had a similar (meant to be 'sexy') dance entry that stood out more as well.

"Hope"´s style is "unique" whereas "Ilamame" is typically Eurovision??

"Hope" is a catchy bop but it´s the epitome of being generic - Some even compare it to "Heroes" whereas I can´t think of any other songs in recent Eurovision editions which are really close to "Ilamame".

I really heavily disagree with the comment above. I honestly don´t believe that "Hope" finished higher "because of being more unique than Ilamame".
