Good afternoon!
Portugal won Eurovison Song Contest for the first time! The name of the singer who won is Salvador Sobral and is born in Lisboa, Portugal. He is only 27 years old and with his amazing voice, then he manage to gain a lot of points.
Got any comments about his singing? Feel free to post it down below!
Why were there so many countries who didn't sing in their own language? So fucking annoying that they suggest some countries to sing in English when their slogan this time is literally: "Celebrate Diversity"

Perhaps diversity in thinking is more important than singing in diverse languages where said ideas cannot spread.
OT: Congratulations... but they would have had my vote if they sang "Star Spangled Banner".

Haha, this is a singing contest, not EuroVision: Best Personality 2017.
It's about singing, and if you are trying to promote diversity, letting people sing in their own language is a great fucking start.

But different languages divides rather than unites people into one diverse-thinking group. Maybe we should take this to PMs or start another thread to discuss this because it could go way off topic very quickly

Obviously this is very relevant to EuroVision.
Again, EuroVision is about singing regardless of the language. It doesn't matter what their message is, it's about learning to get together despite difference in nationality and language. Also, English is extremely limited. Chinese would be better fit for this, if you're trying to spread an idea.
I thought Portugal's song was beautiful
Portugal's song was quite a boring song imo.
Gotta stick with Moldova.
Sax Guy ftw!

Portugal did very well
Well, certainly not bad for some as young. Hopefully he's gonna produce some more content outside the contest.
