Grazie mille Giuria d’Italia  ! I really needed the points to end a disastrous edition.

 

And congratulations on your second victory in a row 

 

Also well done @Wanderer  & @Belle for your deserved podium finish, as well as @Fer GUA  for your awesome debut!!

My personal votes and thoughts -

 

 - 12 (One of the clearest winner picks for me. Great vocals, visuals, arrangement. Plus, the Maori segments are beautiful. @Wanderer)

 - 11 (This was the only other song considered for my 12 points. It caught my attention quickly as well. It stood out from everything else, and the lyrics were interesting @Vektor)

 - 10 (I think we might have some overlapping taste @Vic Liu. I liked the "throwback" nature of this song, and the lyrics/video were fun.)

 - 9 (Just a fun, catchy, lively song. A nice ode to one's homeland @kungshamra71)

 - 8 (I like the risk you took with this @hckošice. It has a great message and stood out from many of the other entires.)

 - 7 (This is similar to some music I listen to more frequently. There was just something about it that keep me thinking about it @Wumo)

 - 6 (A nice dance/party track. It got points for the integration of Maltese @Glen)

 - 5 (Eley has a really good vocal. The song is a great pop track @Werloc) 

 - 4 (Retro in a way that was fun and stuck out @Henry_Leon @Gianlu33 @Pablita)

 - 3 (Definitely an artist with a lot of promise @Hipooo)

 - 2 (This originally feel outside my points, but creeped it's way back in. The vocal is nice and lyrics are interesting enough @Benolympique @Bohemia)

 - 1 (This got me to move, and it was fun, so finally some points for you @konig)

 - R1 (Catchy, but just under the line for points @mrv86)

 - R2 (This almost snuck into the points. I'll be interested to see how she does at Eurovision @NikolaB)

 - R3 (Great vocal, a nice country vibe. I just couldn't find room for it in my points @Fer GUA)

 - R4 (I couldn't find the translated lyrics, and that hurt your chances for points @justony. The song was interesting, but I couldn't undertsand the message.)

Congrats to , my favourite song here. Would also love to see  winning the Totallympics Eurovision Contest, just for a bit of a change...

 

 

It would be interesting indeed. This was huge opportunity, and taking into account song I have for the open I am nowhere close to the podium

I woke up huming it one day. It wasn't my favorite, but it was undeniably catchy.

Thank you, I know you to like most of my entries 

 

Lithuania on the other hand has hardly given points to Mexico, one of the few exceptions being the edition where they actually had Ximena Sariñana and Different as their top pick.

Joking aside, as popular as Billie is, her Barbie song is too low-key for a song contest to win. 

Yeah, that did cross my mind, but then that song kept winning everything, so we decided to send it anyway 

 

Olivia Rodrigo's "Vampire," AJR's "Maybe Man," and Lana Lubany's "ON MY WAY" were the other three finalists after the first round of consideration.

Thank you all for the music and the entertaining show.

 

A special thank to @vinipereira: I know that our beautiful radio could be a perfect logo for the contest but you really did an amazing job!

 

Hope you have enjoyed the show: we spent many hours with @Henry_Leon to choose songs, mascots and places.

Billie fell out of the top five at the end, so who's ready for an obscure indie entry next year? 

Yes, I need drugs now

Congratulation Italy on the win! I liked the song, so I am happy with the win!  And thank you @Henry_Leon and the rest of Italian jury for organizing the event and sharing a bit of Italian culture, music and places! I will be spending around 10 days in Italy this May so already have a good playlist of Italian music to help me improve my Italian 

 

Congratulation @Belle on the third place, and team gold

 

Ciao, ciao!
