He is genuinely crying. What you're watching is his winner performance, not the initial performance that night. He was incredible in both performances.
He was crying a lot because he found out he is the winner and then, he had to sing again his song, that is why it was difficult for him not to cry. anyway, Sheldon is amazing
Sheldon is an amazing singer. This voice is stunning and needs way more recognition. 2 points only in the main contest is so unfair. He was crying for real!!
He was overwhelmed in this performance because he had just won Australia decides. Sheldon was diagnosed three times with the Asperger Syndrome between age 6 - 12. He didn't speak and the docters told he never will. His father is Filipino and he is gay. That is why he didn't feel like he is the same as other kids. The song was written by him in a very young age. He wears the mask in other performances, too. I would prefer to see his beautiful face. I love this song. ❤
Australia is in Eurovision as it is for members of the European broadcasting union, which Australian channel sbs has been a member for decades offering multi cultural mainly European content to Australians who have immigrated
Thank you @Michael Tyler 😁 SBS an independent Australian TV channel has been a member of the EBU(as you've stated), and has been broadcasting Eurovision for over 30 years.
Sheldon was on the Voice. Killed it. Didnt win should have. Came back again as wild card! Should have won again as so good but didnt! Sheldon then went to Americas got talent! Nope! This talented kid tried another competition and finally won!! This kid has paid his dues. We were all crying with him!!! So deserved 💖💖💖💖💖
Great reaction video and his emotions were genuine. This is his life ambition and finally achieving winning something must have been such a feeling of relief for him. It really hits the feels and made this old man cry and I thought my tear ducts dried up years ago. 👍🇦🇺♥️
After WWII, Australia became a place for refugees and migrants from all parts of Europe. Many mixed on huge public infrastructure projects in isolated areas. Nostalgia for home, including music , was part of life. Eurovision came to life, and with it interest in the competing national songs. The interest in the competition grew, particularly with the start of the public Special Broadcasting Service, the aim of which was to promote and serve the multicultural communities of Australia. Interest in Eurovision grew, and developed amongst first generation Australians. Now, it’s become a mainstream interest for many.
Ty I pray for your Country Sheldon Riley Amazing 🎵 🎶 Voice the outfit his passion and His Voice Long live Sheldon ❤️ you the universe already noted who you're Pal
Israel is not Europe. Nuff said. 👍- plus, Australia is basically mini-Europe based on our population, so we are basically all of Europe in one island-continent ! (And- we have loved Eurovision forever ❤️)
In his childhood he was diagnosted with Asperger, so he felt always different. And he never sang without the mask before, because he wanted people to focus on the song, and not on him 🤷🏼♀️
This is the *8th year* Australia has been in Eurovision - and you still want to make an issue of it? Israel isn't in Europe either so do your research and educate yourself. BTW - great performance Australia!! 12pts from Israel
STRAIGHT TO MY TOP 3 🇦🇺 What rating 0-10 do you give this song? 💕

Hé was crying. This is his second performance after he actually won.
Great reaction video and his emotions were genuine. This is his life ambition and finally achieving winning something must have been such a feeling of relief for him. It really hits the feels and made this old man cry and I thought my tear ducts dried up years ago. 👍🇦🇺♥️
Unbelievable, that voice is from another world.
He was crying in the final but If you realise how amazing he held his tears to end the song with a great high note It was Fenomenal

This was his second performance just after he found out he won
Thank you for understanding Sheldon’s performance. I’m wishing him all the luck for a few hours time although he’s already a winner to me ❤️
EUROPE, GET READY FOR THE FIRST AUSTRALIAN WINNER 🇦🇺♥️
I give all the points I've got. This is one of the best songs in eurovision ever
Surprised he could sing at all after having just been picked to represent Australia. Well done!
I love the vocal and beautiful song but still Poland 🇵🇱 it's my 😍 favourite
Sheldon Riley ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ty I pray for your Country
Sheldon Riley Amazing 🎵 🎶 Voice the outfit his passion and His Voice

Europe - 750 million
Australia - 25 million
@@ThemeParkLuke no- I meant the population has a large formerly-European population - or those of Euro descent

Ooooh I had no idea!! This is brilliant, good luck today!
Its real crying

Thank you so much❤️🇺🇦

You actually watched his winning performance and not the national final performance btw
This is the reprisal after he won.
I think the vocals are a bit shouty on the choruses but I do relate to these lyrics a lot unfortunately.
by that logic you could argue that conchita was shouting
@@meda4979 yes, you could.
there's always one that has a silly gripe.
his voice is a mix of Sam Smith/Lewis Capaldi (without his raspy tone)
