For two years in a row, Portugal surprises us with another masterpiece. I think I like it even more than Salvador's song, it is so beautiful, emotional, magical, one of my favorites this year.

What a beautiful song. Without any frills on stage. Good luck for another good result!

Instrumental version

 

[mauve]

This instrumental version actually sounds beautiful! To be true, I dislike the song because of her singing. Her voice is not my taste at all, but this version without her voice is really like easy listening. Good!

 

[DanielLuis]

The music video with the remastered version will be out by the end of April. Hopefully it'll gain us some momentum

 

[JonnyWest]

Today they said they will attend a pre-party but didn't say which one... it's probably Madrid anyway

Another day, another tear #triggered

And my love thinks I am romantic and melancholic as I read him the lyrics in Spanish

For me it is hard to decide which one of them I love more! I think I love O jardim slightly more, too!

I know it won't win but needs to get a good place! Maybe top 10!

I also hope for at least top 10, this beautiful song doesn't deserve to come among last places, like Portugal usually does.

Only winner country since 2014 that the year hosted the competition managed to get a good result is Sweden! Still remember Austria in 2015 ending last with 0 points! Ukraine ended 24th in 2017! Let's hope that Portugal will have better luck.

In the past decade, Serbia won in 2007, and in 2008 we came 6th, so it is possible.

 

[Soul]

Well, Austria's song was horrible. O jardim on the other hand is even better than Amar Pelos Dois

Yes that's true! But was only t/v back then so things were different!

I agree!
