In the dress rehearsal this afternoon:
What did he say right after the song was finished? I couldn't understand it.

His dress rehearsal is just ... :lol:


He recently said in an interview that he needed to do this in the rehearsals (improvise and sing has he feels in the moment), because so many rehearsals were driving him crazy.
His sister (the big boss xD ) "allowed" him to do that in the dress rehearsals. Obviously he will keep things as expected in the jury rehearsal and in the final

Was it as good as in the semi?

Reports are that it was even better. ESCTips said it was like Gabbani was his warm-up act.

Ouch. I'm just staying mildly optimistic for the time being. I'm afraid i'll jinx it otherwise.:oops:

Still, i can't really rely on those type of comparison between Italy and Portugal. They're both excelent in their own terms. And my two favourites in this whole competition (emotional aspect aside, of course).

What a year this has been... xhug

Reaction of the last rehearsal of the Salvador (tonight for the jury)

Oikotimes - Simply superb! Arena and press area covered with excitement and applause. Congratulations Salvador and thank you Luisa for this song. Lisbon prepares you!

ESCTips - The enchantment of the Savior. Press area almost completely silent. Portugal very strong for tomorrow. Giant reaction.

ESCToday - Another magical and clean performance by Salvador Tonight, bringing elegance to the arena and captivating the audience in the process. The simplicity of music and performance makes the Portuguese entrance even more magical as a whole. Continuing to climb the stakes, Portugal can have its best result ever.

ESCKAZ - Salvador with an incredibly sensitive performance. Artistically unique.

ESCDaily - Salvador looks like a clock in every performance here in Kiev. Today again. There are one or two notes that I can not stand as long as I would like, but that's details. This song is so unique that it remains difficult to know how the jury will vote. But it sure hit the vocals.

Eurovoix - A wonderful performance from Salvador, very strong and completely silent the arena and the press zone. They must have a great result.

Translation is not the best, sorry.

Never have I been such a bundle of nerves like I am this year. I feel so emotionally invested that I don't think I can manage if he does not win. Seriously. I want the show to be over already. Daaaaamn.

Eurovision perfection.

Even if it doesn't win; Be proud. Be very proud of yourself, your fellow countrymen, your friends, all the people around you who had the spiritual presence and taste to accepting such a masterpiece to represent all of you. Portugal is a wonderful country. Let his voice be your essential representative for that.

I hate Salvador!
I was gonna vote for Francesco and maybe Croatia a few votes, and now Salvador comes into play :/. I guess I have to drop them all equal amount of votes and let somone else decide :)
