25th! Lol yeah, Heavenly club was unfortunately never going to fare better than that. Thanks a lot to Azerbaijan for , Portugal and Guatemala for each and Ukraine for the ! Good winner. I thought it was going to be France winning, but okay. ^^ Also congrats to Russia for the top 3 (first one ever I believe?). I like how close the voting was btw. Luckily 7 / 10 songs I voted for got a top 15. The most unexpected results for me are the ones for Armenia, Iceland (higher than expected) and Italy (lower than expected).

I thought I sabotaged myself by giving my top 2 points to France and Russia and at the end I was especially convinced that Ukraine would give its 12 points to Russia so I'm very happy that I managed to pull through Thanks to everyone who voted for Germany but special thanks to Lithuania for awarding me my only 12

Right after getting my second victory in Retro WWWSC, I have unfortunately landed in the last place this edition to my great surprise. I would like to thank Cyprus, Ukraine, Portugal and Guatemala for voting for my entry, nonetheless I am a bit disappointed over receiving the worst placement for the 3rd time already in the last 20 editions (previously, it happened only once for a long time ago), but I guess I must work on my choices much more carefully to avoid such scenarios in the future. I am, on the other hand, happy about 5 entries from my top 10 advancing to the actual top 10 of the edition. Particularly happy about the results of Armenia, Mexico (you were surprised about my for your entry, but such folk songs usually enter my top 10), and Ukraine. Amongst the countries I consider underrated are Portugal and Turkey. Not disappointed with the winner, so congratulations to Germany for winning the edition My last remarks will be about the beautiful design of the edition. Quba has historically been known for its apples and carpet weaving industry, both of the symbols you could see on the recap video. On a side note, Golu Chichi carpet, which is depicted in the design, has been exhibited in the Metropolitan Museum of New York, and we have one of its kinds in our house as well. I would have never expected something from my house to be located in the recap video, but here we are Anyways, thanks for a great edition and design, Jasna Azerbaijan was happy to host you! See you in Germany, and happy New Year/merry Christmas to everyone

Oh, thanks for another top-10! It was a very interesting edition and many songs did not have enough points... Congratulations to the winner Germany, it is well deserved though a very famous thing. Thank you to everyone who voted for Ukraine, especially Latvia and Armenia! See you next year, thanks for hosting! Good luck to all and health!
@jυƖιαη I like Russian rock. A lot of artists from my childhood would get 12 points automatically. But Russian pop-music is not my thing. Although there are exceptions.

Another 7th place, now that's a great start into the new century Didn't know exactly what to expect as I've had very mixed results with such 90s entries (and some of them literally years ago), so I'm happy with that. Thanks for all your points, especially to for your ! If I'm right I got many of the points from people who vote less frequently for Austria, which is also nice Fun fact these are the first points I got from Russia since Edition #7 (but ok, they also skipped like 90 editions lol) Congratulations to the winner Germany (good one & finally I know again how this piece is called) and to everyone else who finished up there! Portugal and Indonesia for example are pretty underrated unfortunately... Happy for Mexico, Ukraine and Italy for reaching the Top 10 on the other hand Thanks for the edition, I thought it was a pretty strong one! Best wishes to the Retro participants for Christmas and for 2021

Happy 2021 to everyone!
Hope you had or will have very lovely holidays.
I wish for 2021 to be better in all aspects that 2020 couldn't be. I wish you physical and mental health. I wish you successful studies and careers. I wish you fun in the things you love doing. I wish you lovely new friendships and connections. And I wish Retro continues to bring you entertainment and joy in 2021 as well (assuming Retro didn't suck in 2020 lmao).
