Important to note why he sings with such splendid emotion. He was very sick with heart problems, and his sister wrote this (amar pelos dois or, I will love for both of us) saying that even if he is to pass, she will always carry on his love, for herself and for others, ie. loving in his absence. So in the moment, this song and performance was essentially his goodbye. Fortunately he survived and is mostly well of what I've heard.
I'm Portuguese and I can say it is a true story guys... He received a heart transplant and survived. To everyone that like Portuguese music and like Portugal. Be inspired by love, love cures, loves heals, love creates and makes happen. To all of you, love and be loved.
Nice comment! The Portuguese text/poem doesn't say she will love for the 2 in case of his heart dies (it says she will love for the 2 even if he doesn't love her); but maybe it's really a message from the sister to her brother! (All the real life health conditions mentioned are true.)
God, i'm still obsessed 6 years later. My heart is breaking every time i'm listening to this music, no idea why. I hope he is fine and keeps doing music.
Salvador Sobral is very much alive and kicking,💓 and is making music like crazy and performs all over Europe!💓🎶🇵🇹 And sometimes he even sings this beautiful ballad.
I meet him 2 weeks ago at a concert in Faro, Portugal. He is a very humble person and he looks fine and healthy (besides the fact that he had to stop the concert to take his medicines on the stage)
This is the best ballad that I have ever heard. Congrats for Portugal as the winner of Eurovision 2017. The instrument and language so touching. Respect
As an American, this song reminds me why music can deeply touch one’s soul without language barriers. This guy’s way of singing coupled with the sound of Portuguese is simply unbelievable.
@@user-eq2gk7oq3r Это правда! Радостно было видеть единодушие миллионов людей в оценке прекрасного певца, и глубокое сострадание ему тогда, перед серьезной операцией.
I dont speak Portuguese, i dont have the slightest idea what the lyrics are about, he could be reciting a market list for all I know. I dont care. The voice, the music, the feeling, he is ABSOLUTELY DIVINE.
English is a very limited language, this is the best translation you can do, but it loses a lot of the emotion of the words. If one day someone asks about me Tell them I lived to love you Before you, I only existed Tired and with nothing to give My dear, listen to my prayers I beg you to return, to want me again I know that one can't love alone Maybe slowly you might learn again My dear, listen to my prayers I beg you to return, to want me again I know that one can't love alone Maybe slowly you might learn again If your heart doesn't wish to give in Not to feel passion, not to suffer Without making plans of what will come after My heart can love for the both of us
I've been in Portugal 2 weeks ago, and I fell in love , Portugal! I love your culture and language! This song very unusual and completely different from others, It has something high and good! 12 points from Russia, I hope you'll pass to the final! Obrigado, Portugal!
i'm so happy for portugal! i was a student for 6 month at universidade técnica de lisboa and i fell in love with this country. now i'm back in germany and my saudade never end
Thank's Berlin !!! Germany :) ESC_Lisbon 2018 ! A dream all together in Portugal :) a Big big event in the Atlantic Sea! Beach! Music! Friends! Peace :) All Europe United in Portugal with art and culture !
I normally root for rock/metal songs on Eurovision, but as soon as i heard this song it's had a special place in my heart. Everything feels more complete when i listen to this guy. Look at how his eyes shine as he sings. Him being goofy but also fucking beautiful at the same time is perfection
I still remember it clearly - I lay in bed and thought: when will a song finally be played that really touches my heart? No show, no effects, no make-up and dancers - Just simple, pure, honest. And then came Salvador. I'll never forget this even if I didn't knew what he sung. For me it is still the best song ever sung at ESC. Greetings from Germany.
For me this is the straw that broke the camel's back. Portuguese language is so unbelievable melodical and after this song I decided I have to start learning it. Muito Obrigado
One of the only songs recently that have had any true emotion and sung in native language that won. Says it all for a performer when people don't understand the words yet feel the sentiment. What Eurovision is all about. Unity in spirit not language.
Low budget , quality , emotional , native language... simple but great! Eurovision has definately, at last , raised the bar for something powerful and true! I'm beginning to truly like this competition !
Portugal - finally your time has come! Not only does this performance ooze warmth and passion, the song will stand out so much against the rest that you have an excellent chance of winning this year. Good Luck!
I've lived in Portugal 6 months. i saw Lisbon, Faro, Porto, Sintra, Coimbra, Leiria, Cabo da Roca, Cascais, Covilha, Idanha a Nova, Aveiro, Monsanto....miss you, pretty little country
@@F0nkyNinja excellent comparison. It’s always reminded me of something from The Great American Songbook and your Hoagy Carmichael ‘Stardust’ comparison is spot on 🤙🏽
Beautiful, magical and most of all - real. Thank you Portugal for Salvador and his fantastic song. In a sea of blandness this year I see it as a breath of fresh air. Sometimes less is more :) Million points from Poland!
the great thing about this song that it is so simple and purely focuses on the music, and doesn't try to distract with fancy light shows. it's just a guy singing
Always love seeing Portugal in Eurovision. They love to sing in their own language and promote their culture---that is what it is supposed to be all about,,good luck John from Sydney, Australia
Yes our young Aussie boy should do well.It is great having been allowed the privilege of competing in Eurovision. Like many Australians, I look forward to it each year john
Eurovision is becoming less european and more worldwide, attracting fans from throughout the globe. Wonder if one day we will have Worldvision :) that would be neat
This masterpiece is the calm before the storm that was Eurovision 2018. (no pun intended) May Salvador's Amar Pelos Dois be listened to 100 million times more.
@@beatrizalmeida3151 Will Ferrel made a comedy film about the Eurovision competition and many Eurovision contestants made cameos at a house party. Sobral had his own cameo where his song plays over a scene while he's playing the piano.
Living in Paris with my Portuguese boyfriend and he showed me this song. I loved it so much and him too. Hope one day we could use this song in our wedding
if you're asian and with a Portuguese boyfriend living in Paris and getting married with this song and having children? That is a beautiful love story!!
Not a wedding song. Ask your boyfriend what this lyrics means. The music is beautiful, indeed, but lyrics is sad because it speaks about the end of a relation.
Hello my dear Portuguese friends. I am Italian and i just want to say that I LOVE THIS SONG! I usually don't easily love a song but this one really entered my heart! It seems to me that it's very underrated. I find it one of the best songs i ever heard! I love the song and Salvador's voice! The wonderful melody reminds me Elvis Costello's "She" a bit. I love it! I LOVE IT SO MUCH! So far i think this one and "Occidentali's Karma" are the only original songs in this year Eurovision worth the victory. It would be great if both songs were in the top 3! Good luck Portugal! I love you! :)
For what i listened, "Occidentali's Karma", has quite a lot of good chances to win this year's contest. However, and as you may esily understand, it can only come second, in my list of wishes. I know, realistically speaking, that it's somehow dificult for us, to have high hopes about winning, but, life is full of surprises... and we must never say never. And, above all, we really are very proud of the song, which we chose to represent Portugal. Thank you, and good luck for Italy.
GIADA DE FRANCESCO AND WE LOVE ITALY.EU often come to think that in any incarnation I was Italian such as the love I feel for this beautiful country, beautiful language and for the good taste of Italians who are present in everything: art, fashion, cities, Anyway, I love Italy. And if you have been attentive to the various festivals of Eurovision Portugal always, or almost always, punctuated Italy with a maximum note because, in fact, Italy has a very special fascination about us. Tante GRATZIE per voi
I would NEVER understand why people hated him so much😭 It’s so pure song, I always have a goosebumps. And I feel my soul naked, when I listen this song. So much love to Salvador♥️
A bullseye in my heart ;) This is my favorite song of this years Eurovision. When i hear it i think of Elis Regina, Chet Baker, Billie Holiday. He is the best singer this year and he completely nails this rendition of the song. Probably Portugal's best entry ever, and it certainly deserves to win. Good luck!!! 12 points from Sweden!!!!
Love this song, even I don't understand what is about. His voice is so so beautiful. Calm me down and be more attentive to listen the song with his soulful voice.. Thank you.
What is going wrong in this world?Do you call this song music?Can we stil call this eurovision?I don't think so,this song are the badest song ever from portugal.What a shame..........
I understand what you are saying. I advise you to listen again the whole song and give yourself 3 minutes to understand it. It is not about rythm or a vibrant show. it is about the actual song, and what it feels like. Its only him and a microphone. I thought like you at first, but then I listened again. Hope we win!
Im from Cyprus and this song has restored my faith in the eurovision song contest - i was a huge fan but over the last years (with all the fixed songs that won) i stopped watching! This year ill watch it again because of this beautiful wonderfull song! I just can't get enough of his glorious voice! Portugal should win this year because this the best song period!
Wow, I listened to 17 ESC-Songs so far. By now this is the best song. It puts tears in my eyes. Beautiful!!! Followed by Finland. So far. Thank you so much, Portugal - Greetings from Germany :-)
LOVE FOR BOTH If anyone ever wonders about me Tell them I have lived solely to love you Before you, I only existed Worn out and with nothing left to give My love, listen to my pleas I beg you to come back, to want me again I know, that one can't love by oneself But maybe with time, you will learn to love me as well My love, listen to my pleas I beg you to come back, to want me again I know, that one can't love by oneself But maybe with time, you will learn to love me as well If your heart won't be wiling to give in Won't be willing to feel, won't be willing to suffer Without making plans of what will come ahead My heart can love for both of us instead
I started to learn Portuguese a few months ago and I have to say that it's truly worth it to learn such a beautiful language. This song just simply flows into my heart. I would definitely love to see this song ranked first at the Grand Final.
The beauty of the song and love, softness and kindness it conveys plays the strings of any heart without even understanding a single world! This is the universal language of love which is simple and needs no gimmick!
I am dazzled by this song. What a fantastic musical composition and touching performance. I didn't expect for this in Eurovision. I wish he would win. It would be almost a revolution in the current panoroma of eurovision electopop contest. All my respect from Greece.
Such a beautiful song, so happy it won. I feel like it really shows the European spirit...whenever I hear the music, I picture an old European town, with people going by chatting and laughing, cafes and fountains with statues...
It is almost ironic that probably is one of the few contestants who speaks English fluently but is singing in is native language. I bet a lot of contestants that sung in English can't mantain a 2 minute speech in English. Thanks for being original... thanks for being diferent! Diversity is what makes us genuine... go Portugal, be truthfull to yourself
In 2017, I had a connecting flight from Frankfurt to Lisbon. He was on the plane. I saw him signing autugraphs but I didn't know who hw was. We arrived in Lisbon and there were crowds waiting for him. He is very talented. Fond memories.
Thanks my Italian cousin. If salvador doesn`t win i hope Italy wins this year. Grazie for sending very good songs and always in Italian that is a beautiful language. Go Portugal!!! Go Italy
This is really a winner song! I think every country should sing in their mother language. You don't need to understand the lyrics to capture the beauty of a song. Unfortunately my country made a different option .... Congratulations! 12 points from Serbia.
Thank you Portugal, it's a divine tune! You have a wonderful song this year. I'm so glad you got back. I will store this on my shelf of classics of music. I wish you the best, dear friends! Greetings from UK! See you next summer!
12 points from Spain :-) Great song, emotional and sensitive. This year's big surprise at Eurovision. The only song not in English. Sensational, very emotional, singer with a great physical overcoming. Must win Portugal and Salvador Sobral.
Ooooh A beautiful classy song ! I love his voice, it makes me want to melt into my seat! Its so rich and mellow. The world needs more amazing singers like him. Greetings from France
Vous avez une chanson fantastique. Rythme très accrocheur qui invite à danser. Une composition que serait une merveille si elle etait accompagnée par un orchestre. J'adore les violons dans votre chanson. Certainement une chanson avec du bon-goût. J'adore Alma. Bonne chance France!
OBRIGADO PORTUGAL!!! Goosebumps! Fado and Portugal pure! I`ll vote for you and I wish you a lot of points from Germany and from all over of our Europe!
I am, in fact, somewhat surprised, with so many good impressions coming from your country. I understand that, both our languages, can be quite a bit hard to be assimilated. We really apreciate the respect, and above all, consideration, no matter what. Vielen dank.
Mulțumesc Diana. Sunt foarte bucuroși să vă avem aici. Apreciem foarte mult sprijinul și trimitem dragostea noastră, împreună cu dorințele de noroc pentru țara dumneavoastră. ❤️
Olá! Sou russa, estudo português há 4 anos :) Todos os anos voto por Portugal nessa competição, e vou fazer o mesmo nesse ano. Salvador tem uma voz maravilhosa, mesmo se ele não ganhar, deve ficar entre 5 os melhores. Espero muito que ele consiga!
Escrever assim em Português, se relamente és Russa é um prazer ler as tuas palavras. Além de defenderes um cantor e uma música que são de facto muito bonittas, fico de boca aberta como não há no teu português de 4 anos um único erro a apontar. Obrigado Rose Marin.
Friend, is it possible to sing so cool? You are incredible! For me, this is the best song in decades. Now the final in Kyiv will forever be remembered for me by this song
Important to note why he sings with such splendid emotion.

Were you listening or reading? It’s a song not a literary bestseller thus the reason why trash like this won
I don't speak a word of Portuguese, and yet that was one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Brought me to tears. Thank you.
Laura Marshallsay if you hunderstnad basicly the title is" love for the two" he lost is love and he was try get them back
I was the same ...and still am.this song is just so beautiful
Everyone's trying to make the loudest bassiest extreme songs to win, and then this guy comes with such a gentle song and steals everyone's hearts.
First
God, i'm still obsessed 6 years later. My heart is breaking every time i'm listening to this music, no idea why. I hope he is fine and keeps doing music.

A real Eurovision song. No fuss, just a guy singing in his native tounge and traditional style with an orchestra. So good and sweet...
@@AP-xw5px +1
Well actually it's not a traditional style, it's based on the Great American Songbook
Just like 50s and 60s ahh good old days

The Lyrics are really really beautiful tho
This song and performance is the male non-English version of Adele's "Someone like You". Simple beautiful sound and lyrics.

If one day someone asks about me
Tell them I lived to love you
Before you, I only existed
Tired and with nothing to give
My dear, listen to my prayers
I beg you to return, to want me again
I know that one can't love alone
Maybe slowly you might learn again
My dear, listen to my prayers
I beg you to return, to want me again

My heart can love for the both of us

Love this song, even I don't understand what is about. His voice is so so beautiful. Calm me down and be more attentive to listen the song with his soulful voice.. Thank you.
"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
This is not simplicity but ignorance and lack of work!
@@iosephantonivs4262 whaaat? Lack of work? Ignorance? Wht do you mean by that?
@@iosephantonivs4262 Did you like your own comment?
@@tildalemon I'm dead😂😂😂😂😂
agreed. he brought something else to the contest. but this contest was too "flamming" for this amazing performance.
lots of love from Israel IL
Now that's pure beauty of music,language and culture.-greetings from Hungary
Hungary... Thank's Angela... thank's to be here... beautiful picture_profile you have like a Poetess and writer...
Angéla Demeter 👌🇵🇹😍
Thanks Hungary! I love your singer! Wish you the best! 💖
This song is the most beautiful and unique song of ALL the other countries participating! Greetings from Denmark
Thank you, Lasse! I hope that Europe like it too! Good luck Denmark!
What is going wrong in this world?Do you call this song music?Can we stil call this eurovision?I don't think so,this song are the badest song ever from portugal.What a shame..........
I understand what you are saying. I advise you to listen again the whole song and give yourself 3 minutes to understand it. It is not about rythm or a vibrant show. it is about the actual song, and what it feels like. Its only him and a microphone. I thought like you at first, but then I listened again. Hope we win!
It's ESC season again - and once more I am back to this song. One of the best ESC songs of all times. Just magical
Me too
Enfin un vrai chanteur ! Salvador tu es merveilleux ! 12 points from France.
Merci, mon amie! Certainement un vrai chanteur! J'aime beaucoup votre chanson aussi! Bonne chance pour toi e pour Alma! 💖 la France!
Im from Cyprus and this song has restored my faith in the eurovision song contest - i was a huge fan but over the last years (with all the fixed songs that won) i stopped watching! This year ill watch it again because of this beautiful wonderfull song! I just can't get enough of his glorious voice! Portugal should win this year because this the best song period!
Thank you my friend. Best luck to Cyprus!
Beautiful Cyprus! thank's
I am crying. Way too good and beautiful for Eurovision.
6 years, still listening. Just music and true feelings. Thank you so much for this masterpiece.
Wow, I listened to 17 ESC-Songs so far. By now this is the best song. It puts tears in my eyes. Beautiful!!! Followed by Finland. So far. Thank you so much, Portugal - Greetings from Germany :-)
Also my two favourites, with Hungary finishing the top 3 :D
LOVE FOR BOTH
If anyone ever wonders about me
Tell them I have lived solely to love you
Before you, I only existed
Worn out and with nothing left to give My love, listen to my pleas
I beg you to come back, to want me again
I know, that one can't love by oneself
But maybe with time, you will learn to love me as well My love, listen to my pleas
I beg you to come back, to want me again
I know, that one can't love by oneself
But maybe with time, you will learn to love me as well If your heart won't be wiling to give in
Won't be willing to feel, won't be willing to suffer
Without making plans of what will come ahead
My heart can love for both of us instead
I started to learn Portuguese a few months ago and I have to say that it's truly worth it to learn such a beautiful language. This song just simply flows into my heart. I would definitely love to see this song ranked first at the Grand Final.
Huỳnh Lân 🇵🇹🤞🇵🇹
Beautiful words.... :)
Padeira de Aljubarrota ainda é viva minha senhora? onde é que andou estes anos todos? vamos lá dar mais umas pazadas desta vez no festival ! 😂
Yessss !!! Me and all the minions happy from Portugal !!!! :) go go go !!
Huỳnh Lân i will start learning portuguese at university. It is going to be my last major romance language to learn(i know the rest). i can't wait❤❤
this is the first time of all time that eurovision song made me cry... this is simply BEAUTIFUL. this man,this song.... beautiful
Thanks raudonasaule We are glad you like it! I guess you are a wonderful person. God bless you!
The beauty of the song and love, softness and kindness it conveys plays the strings of any heart without even understanding a single world! This is the universal language of love which is simple and needs no gimmick!
The most beautiful, magical song ever, and the winner! Masterpiece! Come on, Lisbon 2018!
Zedd1500 now that a problem.... A big problem because I prefer Porto 2018!!! 😘
Maria Mota OK. Porto 2018! Xx
Zedd150♥️thanks! :)
2:19 - I like how his eyes widen up when they start applauding, like he's thinking "wait, hold up guys, the song's not over yet!"
Legit XD
Hehe
True! lol
Think it was quite cute
Yeah like wtf man let him sing -.-
Pure perfection! Victory for Portugal!
Marko Vettenranta thank you!
Lindo!! Brasil sempre te aplaude!!
Best proof that music is a universal language. Absolutely LOVE this song!
Thanks for your suport. Enjoy the song. Hugs from Portugal
que letra tan linda ! una melodia encantadora !!! Enhorabuena Portugal !!!!! Espero que gane el pais vecino con esa balada linda !!!!
paco7477 gracias vecinos :)
me flipo oyendola !!!!!! enhorabuena !!!!! Salvador canta genial !
paco7477 Estoy de acuerdo contigo. ¡Venga, Portugal!
I am dazzled by this song. What a fantastic musical composition and touching performance. I didn't expect for this in Eurovision. I wish he would win. It would be almost a revolution in the current panoroma of eurovision electopop contest. All my respect from Greece.
What a fantastic comment from my second country, Greece! Thank you very much. I am happy. I wish you a long and prosperous life, my friend!
Hail to Greece, Mother of civilization!
Best luck to lovely demy!
Vote for him:) only one sms may change everything.
Γιάννης Κουτσουράδης Yannis Koutsouradis Thank you so much!
We can always trust the Portugals to produce this genre. Songs that gave you nostalgia, bringing the innocence of older music into a modern approach.
We will never have something like this in eurovision again. It just makes me appreciate it even more. Best winner of all time.
@@connorito8231Tthat's neat.
@@connorito8231 what
Chicken lady was better. Her’s was terrible.
Arcade came close but I do have to admit this moment was a special one.
Best winner of all time was 2007 Molitva, and 2012 Euphoria. For me.
Such a beautiful song, so happy it won. I feel like it really shows the European spirit...whenever I hear the music, I picture an old European town, with people going by chatting and laughing, cafes and fountains with statues...
So.. a regular Portuguese town, like Faro, Bragança, or Porto.
❤❤❤
At least what the European spirit used to be.
He looks like a street singer who is singing out of passion and I love it
touch my soul this song maybe win Eurovision 2017 good luck Portugal from greece
thank you Greece, good luck to you, great song!
χρυσοβαλαντης καραμπιμπερης παίρνεις ναρκωτικά ;
It is almost ironic that probably is one of the few contestants who speaks English fluently but is singing in is native language. I bet a lot of contestants that sung in English can't mantain a 2 minute speech in English. Thanks for being original... thanks for being diferent! Diversity is what makes us genuine... go Portugal, be truthfull to yourself
I do not understand Portuguese but he is great at expressing emotions.
Thanks!
In 2017, I had a connecting flight from Frankfurt to Lisbon. He was on the plane. I saw him signing autugraphs but I didn't know who hw was. We arrived in Lisbon and there were crowds waiting for him. He is very talented. Fond memories.
Good luck to our Portuguese cousins from Italy! This is amazing! I will vote for Salvador on Semifinal 1!
Thanks my Italian cousin. If salvador doesn`t win i hope Italy wins this year. Grazie for sending very good songs and always in Italian that is a beautiful language. Go Portugal!!! Go Italy
Giuseppe De Bonis thanks for your support! I love italy song as well!!! its amazing! :)
Portugal is the most unique country in esc, love it!!!
Майк Шмидт Yeah, and this should be their year. Together, let's help Portugal to get their very first Eurovision victory!
yeah let's all vote for Portugal!! YK Belgium
This is the winner song ! 12 points from The Netherlands.
Thank you very much. Love your wonderful trio as well. Wish you the best!
I love this song. When the world goes crazy and you hear sirens every 3 hours in Ukraine. This song brings peace and calmness. Thank you, Salvador ❤
I hope you're safe brother
My winner, one of the most beautiful songs in the history of this contest
This is really a winner song! I think every country should sing in their mother language. You don't need to understand the lyrics to capture the beauty of a song. Unfortunately my country made a different option .... Congratulations! 12 points from Serbia.
Thank you very much for your kind comment my friend. I like Serbian song too. Respect. Good luck!
Бранислав Иванишевић love you Serbia.
This wonderful song is written by his sister .amazing.Bravo
The only language I know is English, but I didn’t even have to understand the words to know how beautiful this song is❤️
sou brasileiro e torço TANTO pra que Portugal vença! será lindo uma canção na nossa língua a ganhar. :)
Obrigado! :) :) :)
Obrigado irmão, os Brasileiros estão sempre no nosso coração
E ganhou

straight into my heart.
Bravo Portogallo and good luck!!

Wow, all I can say that I am deeply impressed by this song. I sincerely hope you qualify this year Portugal, you deserve it more than anyone else

One of the best eurovision songs ever
Thank you Portugal, it's a divine tune! You have a wonderful song this year. I'm so glad you got back. I will store this on my shelf of classics of music. I wish you the best, dear friends! Greetings from UK! See you next summer!
Thank you very much! You are always welcome in Portugal. See you!
12 points from Spain :-)
Great song, emotional and sensitive. This year's big surprise at Eurovision. The only song not in English. Sensational, very emotional, singer with a great physical overcoming. Must win Portugal and Salvador Sobral.
I love this song, I will vote for Portugal. Força Portugal, um abraço desde Espanha! 🇵🇹🇪🇸
Thanks my dear neighbour! Portugal 💖 Spain! Good luck to Manel!

This is truly one of these songs that show the magic of music. I don't understand and yet it speaks straight to my heart
he is my winner !greetings from italy
Ooooh A beautiful classy song ! I love his voice, it makes me want to melt into my seat! Its so rich and mellow. The world needs more amazing singers like him. Greetings from France
Vous avez une chanson fantastique. Rythme très accrocheur qui invite à danser. Une composition que serait une merveille si elle etait accompagnée par un orchestre. J'adore les violons dans votre chanson. Certainement une chanson avec du bon-goût. J'adore Alma. Bonne chance France!
This is just a wonderful song, it deserves to be the NO.1. More than 12 points from Holland. If you appreciate good music, vote for this gem.
Indeed! Thank for your comment. Wish you the best, my friend!
Thank you from my heart!
I could not stay indifferent to your comment. Thank you very much, your appeal is very appreciated. All the best to you. :)
Aristides da Silva tchê vc Dj f D FC cx aqui X cx
It gave me goosebumps when I first listened to this wonderful song... I felt so relaxed and thought to myself - He'll become the winner...
OBRIGADO PORTUGAL!!! Goosebumps! Fado and Portugal pure! I`ll vote for you and I wish you a lot of points from Germany and from all over of our Europe!
I am, in fact, somewhat surprised, with so many good impressions coming from your country. I understand that, both our languages, can be quite a bit hard to be assimilated. We really apreciate the respect, and above all, consideration, no matter what. Vielen dank.
staikmuc another one from Germany :D

How nice of you! Thanks. I send you my best wishes my friend.
The way he feels and sings the music makes me want to cry. He is a genius! A true artist... Good luck!
Valeria Georgieva realy true Valeria!
Olá! Sou russa, estudo português há 4 anos :) Todos os anos voto por Portugal nessa competição, e vou fazer o mesmo nesse ano. Salvador tem uma voz maravilhosa, mesmo se ele não ganhar, deve ficar entre 5 os melhores. Espero muito que ele consiga!
Rose Marin Obrigado Rose! Felicidades!
Obrigado. Saudações desde Portugal. :)
Escrever assim em Português, se relamente és Russa é um prazer ler as tuas palavras. Além de defenderes um cantor e uma música que são de facto muito bonittas, fico de boca aberta como não há no teu português de 4 anos um único erro a apontar.
Obrigado Rose Marin.
Rose Marin obrigado o Salvador tem uma voz maravilhosa desde a primeira vez que a ouvi ficou logo a minha música favorita
Muito obrigada , José! É um prazer em ouvir :) Sou russa, sim :p Chamo-me na verdade Anastasia (Анастасия)
Friend, is it possible to sing so cool? You are incredible! For me, this is the best song in decades. Now the final in Kyiv will forever be remembered for me by this song
Que alegría senti ese día por la victoria portuguesa !🇪🇦🇵🇹
I love having Spain as neighbor. 🇪🇸🇵🇹
obrigada irmão 🙏
