Latvia LATVIA 2023 - Sudden Lights - Aijā

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Smudy]

Switzerland might have made it over them.

 

[Geborgenheit]

Switzerland might have made it over them.

With a massive help of jury. And then in the final... Switzerland gets from the public 0 points.

 

[Wynnter]

I knew it

Not only my favorites Q broken since 2016, my heart also torn into pieces. I feel numb

Which jury this time?

 

[Wynnter]

I swear if they would have qualified with the juries I'm going to..... do something to the EBU headquarters.

 

[Geborgenheit]

Which jury this time?

The rest of the world.

 

[Sammy]

Sorry for Latvia. This was quite a grower for me, but I fear the staging was not memorable enough. I hope they were at least close to qualification.

Yeah and the worst part is that Latvia really would have need a final. Why should country like Latvia and Malta complete when they always get voted out and Croatia and Serbia with crazy songs get final. I,m afraid this could mean that some country will ask them selv why should we take part? And don,t forget that also Moldova, Israel and my country (Norway) also was going to final. So nearly every show songs get to final

If Latvia ending up 11 and would Q with jury. That would hurt even more

 

[lacrymea]

The odds give us something to talk about over the months. But they also ruin everything. It's like if the odds say this, the public votes accordingly. It kills the magic and room for surprise.

I'm gutted for Latvia and the guys. Hope they know there are a lot of people out there that loved them. Unfortunately, we were not enough.

 

[Ana Raquel]

Me seeing my Vodafone bill sum up to 100+ euros after all my 2047 votes for Latvia were in vain

 

[Ajeje Brazorf]

I have a weird feeling we won't see Latvia in Eurovision next year. I hope to be very wrong... But I think this NQ will be the end for Latvia in Eurovision for a while.

 

[Judas]

I never particularly enjoyed this song but during the rehearsals I loved the vibe it gave off -- calm and pleasing. I enjoyed the performance and I wish Latvia had a room in the final. I guess I am mostly sad for Latvia among the songs that didn't make it tonight. These guys ought to give us the good vibes all around. Thanks Latvia for these lovely performers and that song. Gonna be listening quite a lot during the summer.

 

[Luneaux]

Logged in to send a message that I'm sorry not to see Latvia on the final! Sudden Lights' performance was great and I voted for them too. They would have deserved it! However I'm glad that I found the band through Eurovision and now I can listen their music more.

They participated in Forum Song Contest (with my suggestion ) long before coming to Eurovision:

FSC - Forum Song Contest

Eurovision all year long

The sudden lights guys have three albums of great songs with more music to come just support them by continuing to listen, it’s a real shame they NQ’d but it is what it is

 

[Gera11]

Sadly this suffered from not having space where to squeeze into the final, like I can't see who could've stayed in the semi instead of them. In sf2 it would be different. Ultimately it was a bit too niche-y

 

[SirPeterGriffin]

Great song, just not suited for the hyperactive and in your face eurovision. The lack of jury probably sealed their fate. Nevertheless, very glad that they competed allowing me to discover more about this group and adding it to my playlist.

 

[vavera4ka]

They were perfect. it sucks that perfect isn’t enough for this f’ing show. Gutted.
I hope the guys don’t take it personally. The love for this entry might not be widespread, but on a person by person level it might only be rivaled by Cha Cha Cha… and it might eclipse that too.
