Austria AUSTRIA 2023 - Teya & Salena - Who the Hell is Edgar?

Besides random televoting results, Dietmann's track record looks worse than before. All the fan faves lacked the energy and didnt attract the televotes ultimately.

8th place jury
21st televote

Similar to Zoe 2016 but other way round

I was totally surprised by the French and Belgian jury.

I was totally surprised by the French and Belgian jury.

I was shocked by Greece and Cyprus tbh. But then also by UK and Sweden not awarding us anything, and they were the show runners.

Well this was a bit of a surprise but not too much-I had this down to the left hand side and perhaps even a sneaky top 10. But nope, right hand side!! I guess being first had a bit of an impact on this

I mean we have got less televoting points than how is this possible

 

[SpiritofKeiino]

I thought it was dead as a potential top 10 but still shocked it ended this way.

That's surprising indeed...Switzerland was 3rd in RO and Austria 1st...not much difference

 

[Paddy]

So sad about the televoting results, I definitely expected that they would get more, especially after jury’s kinda appreciated it

2nd Place in the Semi.
Ezio wont be amused.

 

[Ana Raquel]

This is unbelievable honestly

 

[Sherlock]

we had 2 more points than Sweden in the Semifinal.

We were 2nd, Sweden was 2nd.

And they put us on first in the running order. Thank you for nothing, producers.

2nd Place in the Semi.
Ezio wont be amused.

I am pleased by the semifinal, a very strong and resounding result it is. We didn't lose by a lot and we scored from every country. I am not amused that our score compared to final got diminished by 120 points. Again by the running order.

I could foresee not so many 12 points due to all the affiliations between countries in this semi. There was no reason to kill us, but this was the wrong song for the wrong year, when Sweden wielded all their power for a self-serving scheme for their desperately needed win to host in ABBA anniversary.

Congrats to Belgium and Slovenia for our 12 and 10 in the semi.

It was 9 points shy of Top 10. I don't want to complain too much, because almost every country has reason to complain. In such a crushing event for everyone, we are left with the leftovers. Sweden, Finland, Norwy, Ukraine, Italy and Israel thanks to running order sucked up the votes, and the rest was dispersed among diaspora and neighbours mostly.

 

[Judas]

EBU literally said nah we don't need no Austrian victory let's kill their existing chances and put it on the first performance. 2nd in semi and almost nothing of televote in the final. just wow

 

[Ezio]

Austria went from better than Loreen in its semi to worst performing qualifier together with Portugal in the GF televote.

How could we do any better than this?

If we brought Stay or Bridges, we would have crashed out in the semi already or received 0 televoting points in the GF

Austria was 2nd in its Semi. Deban calls
that „borderline qualifier at best“

Some people just always have trash taste.

It is the terrible running order it got. I am absolutely devastated this did as bad as it did, this is my number 1 of the year. I am absolutely gutted for teya and salena they worked so hard and then to be destroyed by martin osterdahl, it disgusts me. This song was so new, modern and vibrant and did not deserve the bad placement it got. Even the juries understood the beauty of the song
