So, there are around 190 nations to which Portugal could have lost last monday. From all of those, they chose to lost against the country I live in, The Netherlands However, i was surprised by the reactions when i went to work today, as apparently nobody cared about it (while if it was in Portugal, it would be a whole day conversation topic hahaha)

Are you predicting the future? (i'm assuming you mean Portugal since it's the only of those teams who will go to the world cup haha)

Ok so I'll just be the first and put the Portuguese song. To be honest I wasn't thinking about participating this time because I now live in the netherlands and therefore I have no idea about what music was launched in Portugal this past year. However, two weeks ago while I went to Portugal to visit my family I heard a very nice song on the radio, a collaboration between a Portuguese and Brazilian singers, and found out that the song was from last year (at least i hope so :-) ). After the song that I have shown you last year, with a mix of portuguese and african culture, I thought this would be the perfect entry, especially for this year, a mix between two countries that make some jokes about each other, but that in the end are really brothers and support each other. DIOGO PIÇARRA + ANAVITORIA

Portugal will be in

He was sick (still a bit), needed the heart transplant, and is in recover. Not sure if he will be able to sing at the Eurovision final, it will depend on the doctors opinion, but he is recovering well for now

Only now i could come here, but what a match! And very funny how, just like in Euro 2016 for football, our best player is injured, has to leave the match, and then a more unknown "hero" scores the victory goal

I live here now for a bit more than one year. There is no way i would ever get close to those waters after seeing all the "things" that end up on the canals haha

just in case you all wonder why the Dutch dominate the speed ice skating (according to NBC commentador):

Yep, just checked: "The top four ranked teams that do not qualify for UEFA EURO 2020 will enter a play-off in March 2020, with one finals place on offer." Which is good for those big teams that surprisely dont qualify for the final phase (like Italy and Netherlands this year), they get a second chance

here are the League A groups for the UEFA Nations League I think that, apart from group 2, we can expect some amazing games!

Eurovision presenters were just announced for Lisbon 2018! Four women, three of them were already expected (the usual Portuguese Eurovision presenters) and the 4th one is none other than NCIS - Los Angeles main star, Daniela Ruah.

Not sure if anyone has already posted this, but here are the four official Leagues of the first UEFA League of Nations: - Each league has 4 groups of three (except for Leagues C and D who can have groups of four) - First 4 teams of League A qualify to the League of Nations Final Phase. - First 4 teams of all other leagues get promoted; - Last 4 teams get relegated - Best 4 teams from each league who can't qualify to Euro 2020 through the "normal qualification process" will be qualified to a playoff, selecting the last 4 spots to Euro 2020 - The draw for the groups will be made on 24th January

Not bad group for Portugal Spain will be probably the winner, but i think portugal should have the strength to be better than iran and morocco.

Nice!! I see that Portugal ended up on 19 place with quite a bunch of points Given the fact that it was a full instrumental song (not sure if it was the first time ever here) i knew it would be difficult to get points, so I am really happy that a few of you really did like the song! As I always say, my goal on this contest is to show you the best portuguese music of different genres, and if at least one of you like it, I consider my goal achieved (now i have to think about which music genre I will pick next time ) Also I would like to congratulate the winners, Ireland, and the organizers, Tunisia, but most of all, congrat France and USA, as their songs were (apart from well known Enrique Iglesias) the only ones that I really did like this year

Last year i sent a metal song, and don't regret it! I'm not sure how points did it take, but the truth is that its (in my opinion) the best metal band from Portugal, and i'm glad you guys had the change to hear it (even if you don't like it )

Liked the logo and the slogan! We are a country very connected to the sea Looking forward to see how it will work out on my beautiful city of Lisboa

My favorite song is the Mormon one, the "Dumb dumb dumb" song. And the funniest thing was when i went to Salt lake city and visited the mormon temple there, where some of their "sisters" make you a tour of the "church", and i couldnt stop playing the south park song while they were explaining all their religion story xD

Eivor!!! I love her Dansadu Vindur song

A secret language only Portuguese can hear! xD

Lieke Martens won the FIFA Award as the BEST Women's Player in the world!! As for the mens, Cristiano Ronaldo won the award for the 5th time!!

People in Portugal say that he is going to be a great goalkepper, there was already a lot of expectation, and he sound actually quite good! (he made that horrible mistake but come on, he is 18 years old, playing against one of the top teams in the world in the best competition in the world). I am not a Benfica fan, but I think they did a great purchase with this kid, looking forward to see him playing this weekend

I totally agree with you, although I recognize that different people see different goals for this contest I actually see this contest as a way of showing what I think are the best singers/bands/musicians from my country, in all different music genres. They might not be the most popular/winning choice, but if I get at least one person here that gets interested in portuguese music, I will have achieved my goal!

In Portugal, the communist party is actually part of the parlament majority that supports the Left-centered government

Hurricanes on Ireland, and a fire hell in Portugal

Dont be so hateful, he’s just a rich guy who happens to play very good football and that likes to order his babies on Amazon i actually dont care what he does or how he behave on private (not so private) life. He is the best Portuguese player we ever have, one of the best players in the world, so I just want him to help us getting more nice results like the ones we had this past years haha
