Ukraine UKRAINE 2016 - Jamala - 1944

[Verjamem]

jury said that Jamala's song was a 'bullshit' and opinion in Belgian jury about it is very divided.

Juries are failing their job this year so hard.

12 points from Croatia go to Jamala.I will definitely vote for THIS masterpiece!

Hvala!

 

[SaladBreak]

when it comes music at least

hahah! The dress is still fab!

 

[AlekS]

New haircut, MUCH more confident than in the semi... no frightened eyes in the beginning, very funky/energized.
There's no pause during culmination.

When I said I'll vote for her I meant vote for her more than 20 times.I am serious.Don't remember when I wanted a song to win this much.

 

[Chorizo]

I guess they are still mad because of Axel two years ago. ::haha

Edit:

Hahaha Axel himself is in the jury!

Jamala should bake him a cake and she will get his 12 points.

A juror who didn't like Jamala has no freaking taste.

Or.. they just don't like it. Even music professionals don't have to like Jamala and 1944.

 

[LoveStormGuy]

Music professionals....Yeah, we saw that on Periscope.Anyway, I don't see how someone could like the cheesy & overused LED performance that is Russia and ignore Jamala's beautiful voice & strong song.
I understand if the televoters don't like it but jurors should imo.

Hands down - this is (for me) the best Eurovision Song of all time. People might call me crazy but I NEVER felt such an emotional connection to a song. The performance yesterday was just breathtaking - the moment she sang the first note my heartbeat went crazy and I had goosebumps all over my body. When the first chorus kicked in I felt the tears flooding my eyes (It was so hard not to cry, not kidding).
I've watched the Semi with a few friends, as you can imagine there was a lot of laughing, chatting and debating throughout the evening but during that one performance no one made even the slightest noise - We were all just listening and watching. Those 3 minutes were magical and if it would be up to me this song would win by a landslide.

Only 20 votes (per 1 SIM card) are allowed, as far as I know. As soon as you will send 21st one, the previous 20 will be invalid. So, don´t lose your count.

I hope we won't win. I would feel fine with top-3 if Jamala delivers song well, but our victory and next ESC in Kyiv will make event very political since our government still thinks on eurovision performs some diplomatical mission.

Honey, I have so many phones and so many people will be in the room with me.Don't worry :-)

Along with the best one last night. Extremely powerful and gave me goosebumps all over. Definetly a winner of semi 2. And she will end up either 2nd or 3rd tomorrow easily..

Thank you for your words. The whole day I wanted to post something like that, but I was afraid that I would just fail to find the right words and make myself understood. That moment at the end, when she looks up, sings that high note and then the tree of light appears above her...that was really a very very special and magical ESC moment, and I confess that I could not hold the tears back, and why should I?

[VikingTiger]

I havent really liked this song before. I know Jamala is a good singer. But the song...
And then, yesterday, I suddenly felt all the emotions!!! Wow!!! Straight into my top 10. But I now see what many of you people saw in this entry from early on...

 

[A-lister]

The verses are still weak (bad English lyrics brings down the overall impression)... but the chorus is haunting and she did a great job...

This and Italy are the best ballads this year, but of course juries will go for the more souless 100% English basic Australian stuff *yawn*

You are funny. We're not twins, but it happens that we share some ESC-related opinions. Is that OK for you?

I hope for a surprise.
