i'm still quite in a shock tbh. getting 7th is an incredible achievement ESPECIALLY after all the struggle I had and not even coming close to qualify like ever. the aq zone was basically so close but I have absolutely nothing to be sad about, this was a really crazy journey. AND on top of that, I managed to win SF3 somehow so thank you so much to everyone who has voted for my song or just supported it in any way, I already expressed how much I love this song and how close it is to me, so achieving my best result with this particular song is truly the cherry on top. thanks to y'all once again!! congrats on the victory ^^ you deserved the aq spot undoubtedly and you would've deserved to win too, it's a bummer that you got 2nd again and soon that breakthrough will happen, keep up the good work ^^ you managed to become my favourite and I'm over the moon to see this in the Top 3, that's how we underdogs roll WHAT A BANGEER. an another country that was done dirty lately, glad to see you take revenge and grab the AQ like that, well done ^^ congrats on the AQ Dylan ^^ in other news, , , and were underrated, but all in all the results were nice.

5th. Wtf? I thought I would struggle to qualify, and even though I was so happy to be in the final I didn't get my hopes up, and hoped to come at least in the top 15. But not in the top 5 at all. I don't really know what else to say, other than THANK YOU! What a lovely way as well to join the FBARG Thanks to everyone who voted for Dýria. I must admit, "Heyrðu mig" is now my favourite entry by far, as I have 100+ scrobbles of it, so to see it get top 5 (barely!) is just so satisfying. I'd like to personally thank Syr for bringing my attention to the song in the first place, you suggested it to me and I instantly got hooked Dýrian (Icelandic) is now my tied best native language alongside Irsan (Irish) which also got 5th place exactly 10 editions ago. I never thought I'd see my songs up in the high ranks at all Thanks to those who gave me points within their top 3: (special thanks for the 24!) Vradiazi, Zylofonija, Levalle, Pashlanahuy, Scandavia and Sirenforest. And to everyone else who gave me lower points as well, love you Now onto my reaction, first full one I'm doing in quite some time woo! Not the best song, but definitely not deserving of the lowest final score at ALL. first big robbery tonight - yes it did PQR in NVSC but that wasn't deserved, and its 25th wasn't deserved either. Robbed, but sadly expected. ( ) A nice enough song, just wasn't enough for my points. Kinda catchy in the recap, but that's it, in full I'm not a fan. A bit underrated methinks, I didn't really stan it in the beginning but yeah. A cute song. It kinda just got lost for me tbh, not as good as her last attempt. expected but a bit underrated. ( ) Another nice song but didn't really have a huge impact on me A decent debut, not one of my favourites but it was definitely decent. Well done! Oh another underrated one. But I'm glad you got your best result Domas! Well done ( ) expected it to do MUCH better. still a solid song imo. ( ) Oh another underrated one [3] but a decent result for a final return I guess, well done on that. ( ) Wow that was unexpected, I thought it would end higher. But deserved much more, a great song really, congrats Vuka anyways love ( ) Grew off me from the semi-final, but to qualify with this song is quite good in the first place! I thought this would AQ, nevertheless solid song again that deserved to slip into the top 10, sad it didn't. Congrats babe ( ) issa cute song grew on me too late, well done Thought this was an easy AQ, but nevertheless 8th is nothing to be disappointed about, félicitations Hugo ( ) A very cute song, well done on the 7th place Levi, I know it was close but you should be proud of this But if it AQd I wouldn't be mad either. ( ) Never would've expected this to come 6th, well done since it's a decent song! Though it was close in the end, I'm glad since Llort doesn't do well that often so it's quite impressive. A bop that grew off me just a little bit. Was able to get my televoting 12 though, congrats it was well deserved! If I'm not mistaken, this is Vradiazi's best result and first AQ so it's a great achievement. ( ) WOW I never expected this to do as well as it did. But I'm not mad about it, it's really a solid entry and you know what, it's about time that gets their first AQ after not so impressive results recently. Well done Anes ( ) nooo grá not again,, I'm happy this AQd in the end (and quite expected, ngl) but also I'm sad since this is the 3rd time gets 2nd. Regardless, comhghairdeas leat a pheata, one day we'll both win ( ) Well here we are. Honestly there was no doubt in my mind that this song would win, I knew it would since the moment all songs were submitted. While it's not my favourite by any means, I do have to say it's a beautiful song and that's why it got from our jury. Moreover I'm more happy for Marika, after narrowly missing out on a victory in #19, it's really nice to see Evergreen finally win. Well done We will miss you here in the 2nd placers club, but hopefully one day we'll leave it as well. I now have hope Overall, an amazing edition with a great batch of songs. See y'all in #23!

Me, Daniel, Matt and Dimitris officially started this contest 5 years and 2 months ago. In this time I have grown so much. Not just physically, but mentally, as a person. I've learnt so much, not just academically, but about the world, about myself, about other people. In this time so many people have come and gone. In my real life as well as in my online life. When this contest started I was about to go into 9th grade. Throughout this time I've started and graduated from high school, and started university and am now in my 2nd year. I've come close to winning before, of course. But GOD does nothing feel more correct than the way it's happened now, which is why in hindsight I'm glad my first win wasn't with "Bloodmoney", or any of my other songs. "I Know the End" is special to me. Extremely special. It may have only been out for less than half a year, but in this time this song and the album it's on have carved a position into my heart that perhaps no album or song ever have. Of course those who know me longer know I've went through countless periods of stanning artists, songs and albums. But Phoebe Bridgers, Punisher and "I Know the End" all hit me so much more differently than anything else. I cannot actually put into words how much this actually means to me. Yes, I've of course been aware of the hype my song had throughout the course of this edition and to say I'm surprised would be grossly overstated, because I'm not. But there's practically no reason you have to be surprised by a result to appreciate it. And I simply appreciate this so so so much. I'll just end this with a simple thank you.

From not even being predicted to qualify from my semi-final (which I ended up winning btw like what?!?) to placing an astonishing 6th place. Anything is possible. Of course, losing an AQ spot by 4 points is worth noting, but I have such a poor qualification rate that I'll take any result in the Grand Final with gratitude. I personally expected to place in the bottom half considering the prediction in the semis. But to place so high up in the Top 10 for the second time since joining FC back in the 9th edition is such a pleasure. I'd like to thank Fordia, Katsyria, and Pashlanahuy for your in the jury vote and also Fyor, Katsyria (again), Namimori, Sylvan, and Trivania for your in the televote. I can't wait to follow up my success next edition. Also, hannahannah, I laughed at your comment in the CyTube show comparing the drop in my entry to farting.
Everything was in your favor this edition. Though this did not get points from me, I understand the emotional appeal that is the essence of this song. After a long time, it's so nice to see Evergreen finally win FC. Congrats, Marika! Great songs to round out the Top 3. It is an international crime to underrate this song. This deserves to place in the Top 10.
See you next edition in Evergreen, where this contest all began!

Thank you all for 21st! Honestly even though its a lower placement, the fact that I managed to qualify at all was a bloody miracle. This type of song doesn't make it to the final that often, so I knew I wasn't gonna do massively well. Thank you to everyone who voted for Jarea as well.
As for our winner, I'm very happy that mMrika and Evergreen finally won. Our first ever host nation, and knowing that Marika has watched basically the whole council win Fantasia Contest at some point. The amount of work they have put over the 5 years since we started this contest has been amazing and should be recognised a lot more than it is. Knowing how much they care about this entry as well, makes me even happier for them. Congrats Marika!
Overall this is a good top 5 so congrats, Llort robbed tho of an aq spot tho.
See everyone in Evergreen, where it all began!

did you just... for me? I won't re-tell what I already wrote an essay about in the Semi-Results thread, but I can at the very least say that I had some hopes of doing decently after seeing more and more people liking my entry. Obviously, I also had doubts, as my high expectations often ends up with me either ending borderline top 10, or somewhere in the middle. But y'all really decided to give me a third place. T H I R DIt's been 3 days since the result show, and it still feels unreal that I've achieved such a result after 17 editions. I'd really like to thanks each and everyone of you who granted me any of your points in the Grand Final. It means a bunch, and I hope to grant you more bangers in the future
Either ways, onto the result itself:
I didn't want to predict this last, but definitely was the weakest of the bunch, even tho it certainly did not deserve just 24 points. After seeing it flop in NVSC, I kind of expected it to have the same treatment here as well (not deserved either). At least you got over 100 points Didn't grant it any points, but I did lowkey enjoy this tbf. Not sure if a 24th place is deserving of it, however. I really wanted to give this points, but alas, other songs caught my attention more. Also didn't think this deserved to be this low. Never really cared much about this entry. A decent placing, if anything. This qualifying surprised me, and the fact that it earwormed me during an entire morning some weeks ago surprised me more. Not a song I cared about either, but hey, at least you made it. I really wanted to like this more, but smth about it just felt lackluster. Still a respectable entry, all and all. I frankly enjoyed this, ngl. Tho I really think this deserved to be placed much higher than it did. Thought this would place much higher, ngl. Almost thought about giving it points, but again, other entries caught my attention more. Didn't think this would do that well to begin with, but I'd be lying if I thought this wasn't robbed of a better placement. This... surprised me. This instantly caught my liking, even though I don't have much to say about it. Really calm and collected. A fairly decent placing as well. Never really liked this. Nothing else to say about it, really. Still can't unhear "Like a Prayer". Slightly grew on me, but not enough to gain my points. However, a 14th place is quite a decent placing after such a long break from the Grand Final o/ Grew slightly off of me, but still an enjoyable entry. 13th seems like a plausible placement for this as well. So close to a top 10 </3 Really enjoyed the whole song, and I'm glad it got placed in the left-hand side of the scoreboard. The song was slightly lacking for me, but I did expect this to do somewhat decent, and looks like I wasn't wrong. Was not expecting this to top 10, but I'm glad it did. The song manages to both have a catchy tune, yet stay in a completely calm lane at the same time (no pun intended). Love this. Honestly, I never saw what other people did with this entry, but hey, congrats on another top 10 placement ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really thought you had that top 5 in the bag, honestly. Still, 8th place is still fantastic, and I'm happy people loved this. Damn this grew on me so much during the edition. I casually threw this aside while listening to the recap, but listening to the full song a few times made me love this more and more. I couldn't give this more points, but I am thrilled to see this being that respectable, both with a return to the final after many editions, as well as your best placing/scoring entry. Congratulations! I have criticism for this song, but that chorus also slaps really hard, ngl. 6th place is really damn high, but heck, it's a great achievement in the end, good job. I predicted this to AQ, but I was honestly skeptical, but I'm really happy I was wrong. This song is an absolute banger, and I'm glad it placed this high. This song has it's moments, but overall, I never really cared about it that much. On the other hand, welcome to the first-aq club lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Was really surprised to find out this was Estonian, ngl. ANYWAYS back on topic, this was a clear top 5 entry in my mind. Maybe not 2nd, but still in there. I really enjoyed what "Milka" offered, and a top 5 placement is well deserved. Can't wait to see what Flírskmasto's first actual winning entry will be 0pt I love how I "only" placed this 3rd in my ranking of Semi Final 1, but damn, this song really hits hard. Out of all of Marika's entries, I'm really happy this entry gave you a victory. I find the whole song to be beautifully composed, and it all and all elevates so well together. Still haven't listened to any of Bridgers remaining songs (of said album), but considering the hype surrounding it, I guess giving it a try shouldn't be that bad Congratulations on your first victory, Marika
And I'll gladly see the rest of you from the AQ side of #23
