Dana Gillespie - The Last Polar Bear (the San Marino sessions)

[@Novympia]

This is easily the strongest.

[@DanmarinoSM]

😭😭😭😭

[@d.fromage4301]

I agree! ❤

[@sheisveryfamous]

YESSSSSS 🎉

[@richardsons2003]

this is the song san marino! emotional and heartfelt lyrics with a giant polar bear on stage is the recipe to win eurovision 2024

[@marcellastoechal]

Yes Definitely ❤

@@treverthetree For me yes❤️🐻‍❄️🥺

[@NewJeans0fficial]

Sad that it didnt win Would be my Winner for this Years Eurovision

[@kirylmazitau7526]

I am sitting and crying 😢 He was just trying to survive, to stay alive 😭

[@konstantinospapaioannou2588]

I'm speechless. The most HONEST song that ESC has ever seen. If San Marino sends this piece, they will win the whole contest. It is so genuinely emotional that no one will escape its impact.

[@akrimos006]

its written by AI not that honest lol

[@pikosapikos13]

This is actually so good, what? 😭

[@iamtheodorx]

He passed semis. @iamtheodorx for more info.

[@imsohappy303]

This is unironically the best choice. San Marino save the polar bears

[@Mediesc]

A huge message, listen to that grandma, we need to save the planet 💖

[@Cowsaregreat]

She's not a grandma 😅

[@Mediesc]

@@Cowsaregreat I consider her as my spiritual grandma so now she is one ✨️

[@MCVEvoseti]

One of the calmest song in 🇸🇲

[@TheSlowStarman]

Marie Wegener, Meg Birch and Nicole Silva are young and will always have another chance. Dana Gillespie is an older lady and maybe next year she will have already left us, so we have to fulfill her dream and make her win Eurovision 2024 before it is too late. Let's go Dana Gillespie, we're rooting for you and this amazing and heartfelt ballad! By the way, did you know she was the first ever Maria Magdalena in Jesus Christ Superstar? MARIA MAGDALENA WILL WIN EUROVISION IN REVENGE FOR DORIS DRAGOVIC AND TONY WEGAS LET'S ALL ROOT FOR HER!

[@Catfish_Everdeen]

I need this on Spotify, my newest obsession 😩✨

[@eunbipov]

this is camp I think this NEEDS to be in Eurovision 2024

[@standa17]

Very nice song, this is the one, San Marino! Greetings from Prague.

[@Holgivision]

Wow, you have to choose this. Goosebumps everywhere

[@vitahealth.2372]

This track is so aplicable to any situation. It’s just sad the turns we see along life’s journey. It’s sad sad sad very sad

[@JoppingBen10Fan]

Agreed, I think the fact it's sung by an older singer adds more power

[@Michalis2m]

I think that’s part of its harsh beauty. You can see beyond the climate change message (if one is capable of doing so)

[@JoppingBen10Fan]

@@Michalis2m true, I also see it as a metaphor for being older and not knowing how much longer is left in your life, especially considering she's 74.

[@owenpurcell6403]

this is actually really sad 😢 beautiful

[@LMBTOEurovision]

When I heard the AI version of this, I thought that there was no way that "The Last Polar Bear" could be used in any way, shape or form. This proved me wrong - putting Dana with these lyrics is a masterstroke and her voice gives this the perfect lift, if that is possible for the subject matter. The other three songs are well sung but will blend into the pack at Una Voce per San Marino - go with this, if for no other reason than to give the National Final some variety and also some artistic credentials with Dana's musical background.

[@ESCSweden]

Wait this is actually really good, and with a message that is very current and in a way that is very symbolical! The best one out of all! 🐻‍❄️🌍❤

[@LattePrronto]

I felt so many emotions from this song, I hope it goes further and we see it on stage😢

[@esc_germany]

Wow, her voice is very unique and special

[@Knabberfritz]

Very genuine and a very important message. There is a lot of staging potential in this one too. Great job!

[@samoshampioni]

Wow, definitely hope this is selected!

[@Jayaa_Satyakaami]

Hats off, living legend Dana ...! What a voice ,so authoritatively speaking for us all ...! How deep and subtle her message is ...! The Last Homo sapien ...., Dana is prophetically warning us ...! She deserves the award ..., We people say ...! Full support from the East .., from the West ..., and the whole wide world ...!

[@wyacheslawkodanev2107]

that was a great one! bravo to Dana Gillespie (truly a legend), Casperaki and people involved in doing this song in any way!

[@aydin.asgarov]

The best choise

[@romaballa2625]

she HAS to win

[@VladEurovisionov]

74 роки, а вона ще може...🙏♥️

[@SUEKELLYCHRISTIE9]

This song is fabulous on so many levels. And Dana gives it a unique gravitas that makes one really stop and listen to the lyrics. The result has a profound effect on the listener. Which will raise the consciousness even higher to galvanise us all into further actions to save our precious planet. Absolute winner. Please - Save the Polar Bear.

[@NarutoUzumakiofficial]

omg yes please! this is so pretty

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

A lot of British artists in San Marino this year...

[@MeikeDraheim]

A good song with a message and a great voice! Greetings from Hamburg

[@its_eurovision]

OKAY, SHE WINNER.

[@francescomarenco8765]

I think this song should compete in the National Final of San Marino because I think it has a chance to stand out among the other entries. Wishing good luck to all the Una Voce per San Marino contestants! Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹🤙🏻

[@ivancolombo7734]

by far the best contribution of the four. warm, sweet and melancholic ❤️🥰

[@jackworrall7806]

This is the winning song

[@francois-josesoudrain1122]

Wow !! BEAUTIFUL

[@ayalleibowitz204]

Just perfect!

[@johannes_floehr]

wouldn't be suprised if this wins eurovision

[@croix1965]

Winner ! I m french and love it

[@IAmStillHere-ws4jc]

She’s right, too: I’m only in my 40s, and the climate where I live is significantly warmer now than 30 years ago. We used to get feet of snow every winer, and now we get a couple inches that melts within a few days a couple times a month. And each summer is breaking the record for hottest summer.

[@Adi-ez2cb]

It was selected !

[@menirsmith2305]

Beautiful song I hope she win..

[@Stashio833]

Out of the four songs, this is the best one. It has the best message and is all around beautiful. Please send this to the national final.

[@VilkasPilkas-uw8wl]

pure music! Hopefully San Marino chooses this ❤️ beautiful ❤️

[@zggeorgia]

This is the strongest song out of all of them!! San Marino please send her

[@Michalis2m]

I’m stunned!! Where did this come from?? Now i’ll go and read all about Dana. Thank you ma’am😊

I usually don't care about the lyrics even if it is in English. I'm only in it for the melody. But the lyrics of this song is as good as it's melody. So I hope this get chosen.

🐻‍❄️ this anthem to Eurovision!

[@stefanoaltea6254]

❤️❤️❤️Brava!

[@Titutitutitu-ur4ub]

4th place: Corazon de Mariposa I like that the song is in multiple languages but I do not think it would otherwise stand out because there are other songs that stand out more like the one from Luxembourg, it has a famous Italian composer and it is difficult to beat 3rd place: Neon Rain It is very catchy! But once again I think there are other songs that could have harsh competition, like Austria... She has a very good voice though! 2nd place: Dare to Dream OMG this song is great, I love Marie's vocals! It would also be an amazing choice, but- 1st place: The Last Polar Bear This song has a great message and stands out across the rest, I do not think other countries will send a song about the environment... Dana also has a very unique voice and it stands out, I think she cares a lot about the song and she has a lot of experience singing. the message is easy to grasp and a lot of people will understand, I really hope this brings San Marino out of their 0 points! I think The Last Polar Bear could qualify to the final, I hope it does well 😄
