I was supporting Italy all the way but I cannot be but happy for Portugal. Their first win! They have waited for so long, even longer than we Finns did. And with a song that is in a native language, and real music. It recalls Serbia's win in Helsinki 2007; a ballad in native language. Eurovision song contest needs this kind of music, too, and it's good it won. And for the first time we have a winner that won both televote and the jury vote, if I'm not mistaken. Salvador continues the trend Jamala started last year - Eurovision bubble gum pop isn't maybe the way to go anymore, as also the runner up Bulgaria is better than average song with great vocals.
