Austria AUSTRIA 2014 - Conchita Wurst - Rise like a Phoenix

[Luki]

PERFORMANCE.OF.THE.NIGHT.HANDS.DOWN. FLAWLESS, FIERCE, POWERFUL YOU NAME IT!!! WINNER ALERT!

 

[A-lister]

Next year everyone should send cliché B-versions of 80's Bond songs and dress as bearded drags...

Still overrated and this smells Finland 2006 to me... act over song

But hey, each to their own...

He DID vocally great though... I have to give him that...

 

[Mlyn]

I cried. Only Teardrops.

 

[Jeansy]

Shame on Denmark for leaving her till last, she was so mortified.

 

[Terence]

Second half would mean victory for Austria! I can see it!!!

 

[Celia]

Conchita blew it out of the water I knew she'd be the last qualifier! Totally amazing, she looked fabulous I definitely overlooked her chances.

But color of the vocal is so ugly for this song! :?

ESC is turning into mess!

No musical substance any more..

This was really nerve-wrecking! Almost killed me Fantastic performance. One of the contenders for the win (gosh, there are sooo many of them this year )

 

[PeterLPZ]

I´m sure, she will win on Saturday. 12 points from Germany for sure!!!!!!

 

[Mattan]

Though this doesn't quite rival what Netherlands did in the first semi, Conchita made the arena blow up and deservedly so. As a whole, it was the best performance of the night ahead of Norway, and I'm sure Conchita will repeat it in the final. Perhaps not a song I'd like to see to win, but a good position seems well deserved if the performance on Saturday equals this one.

 

[DaFlo]

this is aaaarggghhh just no.

Second half would mean victory for Austria! I can see it!!!

I think this song could even win from the first half. But it depends on the goodwill of Russia, Belarus and Armenia, I'm afraid....

 

[Happiness]

Did you feel his stress before he was annouced as a qualifier?
Very well job Conchita.

 

[Sultana]

hate Conchita :? but i should say that her performance was the best! I dont like her and her song, but the whole picture was completed. Stage performance perfectly match with her song and camera work and her dress and her singing was great ..Sad, that it is she, maybe Other singer wouldn't be in my bottom 5

 

[Sean]

Conchita absolutely destroyed the rest tonight and made that audience her bitch. Congrats Austria, one of the best performances I've seen in Eurovision history

 

[AdelAdel]

Best song of this year, hoping for a win now

 

[LonelyBrokenHero]

Congratulations neighbours. You deserved it. It was a good song. So sofisticated like some James Bond soundtrack or something.

What do Russians in general feel about Austria this year? Does everyone hate Conchita? Or does she have fans? Is there a chance for Russian votes?

 

[Pawhlen]

The only thing that will count against Conchita in the final is the Eastern countries. Will they give her points? That's the reason why I can't see her winning
