Arnold Schwarzenegger’s titular character was once asked in the 1982 classic, “Conan, what is best in life?”
After reviewing your response to yesterday’s Festival da Canção 2019 poll, Conan Osiris will respond with the exact same line as Arnold’s Barbarian: “To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you!”
And with a whopping 75% of the vote, #YOU voted for Conan in a crushing victory over his seven rivals for the Festival da Canção 2019. Given the chatter in our forums, the result of this poll was never in doubt, though given the warm response to the other entries, the sheer margin of victory was unexpected.
With 9 votes each, Calema and Matay came in joint second to Conan’s 87 votes, and some entries – some of whom actually were enjoyed by members of our forum – did not even earn a single vote.
The results of our follow are as follows:
- Conan Osiris: 75%
- Calema: 8% and Matay: 8%
- Surma: 4%
- Ana Claudia: 3% and NBC: 3%
- Madrepaz: 0% and Mariana Bragada: 0%
With Festival da Canção 2019 commencing in a few hours, we shall see if Portugal agrees and sends Conan Osiris with as much enthusiasm as #YOU showed in our poll.
