Thanks, I was doubting if I went for 12 (because I got all emotional lady-like with this song years ago) or for 0 (because I thought I'd be too biased), but apparently I went for the first one

I remember the whole story you said about it. Apparently the song was playing on the airport when you were stalking meeting your Brazilian girlfriend for the first time, or something.

Almost  

 

Ok, because I've got nothing better to do: this Brazilian girl and me were kind of saying we were dating, even though we had never met face to face yet. Before I went to Brazil to meet her for the first time (which eventually resulted in a 3,5 year relationship) I used to watch videos of other people on YouTube going through the exact same thing (especially that insanely nervous first moment) and in my favourite one they used 'A moment like this' for the backdrop

No  What did those three nations pay you to start in the gold medal match?!

What three nations?

 

Oh, wait. Those three nations ( ) are not starting in the gold medal match. It only means that their votes will be looked at to decide the gold medal match results.

 

And it's those specific three nations because they are the final 3 voters.
