I would lie if I said I wasn't super bummed about not winning there at the end. So close and yet so far. Fantastic song by one of my absolute top favorite artists.
Congratulations @Kimrt! I told you that would bring you success!
Big thanks to @Journalist and @Mike for the organization especially for the innovative presentation of SF results and clean .xlsx of course. I will look into numbers tomorrow.
And I feel honored to be the co-host of WV 130, which will take place somewhere in Ukraine
Sorry for not taking part this edition; if I only played, would have won as, they were a contender for my along with after listening to the final LL What an unfortunate timing.
Having said that, is excited to send their delegation to
Congratulations Kimrt and on your win! A really nice winner!
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart to everyone who brought to the final and voted for "California Stars" once it got there. It was such a nice surprise to qualify with this song and super fun to watch the points come in for it today.
Thank you as well to our hosting team! Y'all rocked it!
This edition fell at a slightly less busy and less personally challenging time, and it was nice to be a bit more engaged, including dusting off the ol' greenroom thread. Hoping this next edition is more of the same!
Firstly, I want to congratulate Ukraine and @Kimrt for the 1st victory! Well done, it's the great song and I'm happy cause you've made it here in Serbia. Such a good feeling to receive12 points from winning country.
Thank you guys for your votes for this super hot Serbian entry called "Papi", from our well-known artist MILICA PAVLOVIĆ.
7th place, 140 points

Thank you for the chance to organise this edition. I really enjoyed in every second of my organisation. It's a kind of challenge but it's very interesting and awesome. I hope you all have a good time here in Belgrade, cause we tried to give you our best. ( @Mike thanks once again, great co-host! )
You should have found place there where Danube kisses the sky, so I hope you've found it.
Thank you once again for your kind words which I really appreciate and I'm thankful to all of you cause this organisation for sure
would not be like this if not all of you contributed to it.
Best regards from hosting team and see you in the WV 130 Ukraine.
Congrats and thank you Journalist and Mike for a wonderful hosting!
I was already very happy with Gülşen qualifying to the grand final and finally break the curse of DNQ when it's me who's sharing her songs. I was hoping to avoid the bottom 5, but achieving the 15th place with 99 points was way above my expectations, so thanks to everyone who contributed with some points.
Better late than never: Congratulations again to Kimrt for your first win. This is always something very special.
Also congratulations Steph for your silver finish although I hoped you can finally get your long-awaited 2nd win with that stunning choice
Mikes would also have been a well-deserved and worthy winner, congrats for 3rd place anyway
In general all my favorites in the final have done amazingly: all my Top 5 songs have achieved Top 10 results, I dont remember if it ever happened before
Finally, big thank you to the host team. You guys did a flawless job and enthused us with amazing ideas like the SF2 results show concept
Congratulations on the victory! Even though I was not a fan of the song, I am happy for you. Glad to see Canada doing so well, this is by far the best song of Loreena McKennitt and this success is well deserved. Great results for USA, Iceland, Central Portugal as well, all great songs that I also enjoyed. And another great result for my country and my former region, that also makes me happy.
Thank you for an amazing show @Journalist and @Mike. See you in the next edition.
