Long post coming up...
Definitely underrated, however it was more or less expected that the juries would support it and the televoters would make them drop, just like in 2016... Opening the show didn't help them either.
Great entry, nicely performed but I guess it was already one of the least expected qualifiers of its semi final (being on the borderline for most people) so they still did a decent job!
Just 7 points from the televoting is harsh! Such a nice and energetic performance; definitely deserved better!
It didn't manage to avoid the nul points but still didn't end up last; that's at least good for them.
Feels like Sergey will be chased by
3rd places
Thought he'd be higher in the televoting though...
I find this overrated to be honest; alright it's cute but I mean that's all about it.
Glad to see them achieving their best result ever! Well done!
She was really good and had to do well and fortunately she did! The jury result came as shocking but the televoting balanced things out. Still their best result ever so congratulations!
Yeah alright, what are you sending next year? No need to tell me, you'll be in the jury TOP 3
I mean this is a bad joke that really has to stop at some point. At least the public gave a reasonable score.
Nice performance and everything, though I feel like it went a bit unnoticed...
Tamta did a great job and I thought we'd do better at the televoting (the jury result surprised me positively to be honest). It's also funny how some people think that the televoters didn't go for her because of her vocals because she was actually good (the song is not as easy to sing as some might think lol) and I doubt the televoters who ranked Serhat above paid attention to the vocals
In any case, it is a good result for us.
Congratulations, although I feel like we knew this already. Still a decent performance and a nice winner!
This grew on me during the week but the whole outcome turned out to be a bit mediocre. Great voice though!
He had a nice performance but never been a fan of the song so...
I thought they'd do great at the televoting and the juries would rank them down but winning the televoting even, that was probably unexpected...
Not a deserved last place, he did his best and the song was not the worst of the final...
Nice to see them achieving a good result.
This went quite unnoticed too; still not a bad result for them.
We expected it not to do well so not surprise. However, I guess it could've done slightly better.
Never been a fan so I find it quite overrated but well done for a good result!
Glad to see this not making it to the TOP 10 as it was just taking advantage of all this 'diversity' concept to get votes when the song was in fact nothing special.
Thought they would win after the good jury result as the country seems to be doing well with the televoters. I guess that a
2nd place is also good for them.
It was not bad but quite forgettable at the end of the show...
A great performer and he brought the country its best result after so many years! Well done to him!
Surprising that the juries didn't rank them as high as in previous years but fortunately they didn't... This circus act finishing 9th is already too much to be honest but at least we avoided seeing them winning it.
This was an underrated one... Such a fun performance, full of energy! Unfortunately the juries didn't see that. Sorry for them.
Now as for the 2 semi finals non-qualifiers...
Semi Final 1: I thought they'd be the ones to just miss out. Had to go through to be honest...
I still think 12th is overrated for that song but glad the televoters ranked it where it should have been...
Thought they would do even worse after that performance...Alright placing I guess.
I expected them to be even higher. In any case they avoided the last place that many thought they'd get.
I had been thinking that this wouldn't score well particularly in the juries and I am not surprised therefore...
Glad to see them avoiding last but still not an ideal result...
The song was really good but just like most songs of this genre, they have no luck in the contest...
Semi Final 2: I understand why people are surprised but then again, they had
UK,
Ireland and
Norway voting where the diaspora is just too much (thus the 3 sets of
they got from those countries in the televoting). Not to mention
Latvia supporting them because they're neighbours... So it was more or less expected they'd do well but maybe just not enough to get through...
This was one of the songs I could've seen being a shocking qualifier. Still not a bad job, could've gone worse for them...
This was quite a flop, especially in the televoting... Maybe time to recall your selection process?
This was not a big surprise; they still had a great vocal performance.
Surprised to see this avoiding the bottom 3 to be honest! That was nice
Now that was a flop. To be honest I am not sure what didn't work out for them but I guess they deserved better than that.
The only nul points of the televoting in the semi finals; not that it was very unexpected but they could've done better. Glad that the juries helped them escape from last.
An obvious last place to me. The song would just go unnoticed and I wouldn't really see the juries supporting it... Performing as 2nd didn't help either apparently.
