[@mystinary]

He was great, and the song was great. I respect him so much, the fact that he shows his true colors, and is so brave to stand on a scene so big, with thousands of people watching him. Austria should be proud.

[@fwesterbergh]

She*

[@mystinary]

Ahh yeah, just wanted to make it sure for everyone :) I consider her a she too.

[@malisa71]

you both are wrong !!! "IT"

[@fwesterbergh]

Maki Makic Calling a human being "it" is extremely disrespectful. Get your shit together.

[@mystinary]

Maki Makic You're one of the examples for a disgrace to humankind.

[@ChrisFlegg]

I am in love with this song! Conchita is getting a lot of negative comments from the Russians, and we all need to get behind her, and support her 100%! Dana International did it, and so could Conchita!

[@serkalac]

Perfect singer... I love Conchita. Congrats from Turkey.

[@acessacessoria575]

Amazing!!! What a voice!!! This song could be in the next 007 movie soudtrack, no doubt about it!!

[@Markus-xm4zv]

we Austrians sent conchita to prove europeans are open minded and she was the ultimate underdog.what a cool song contest and thanks to all who voted for her :)

[@goldfish4474]

So you are "openminded" if you grow a beard and pretend to be a woman with a D.? Is that what an open minded person does to prove their "open minded"? lol such a weird logic.

[@malisa71]

Which wire in your brain has broken? That is the weirdest logic EVER...

[@skywatcherA]

open minded to have no morality at all? If your kid would be like this,will you be also the same open minded? If your son will bring you at home an IT for bride,will you be the same open minded?

[@malisa71]

***** Now that is the right question !!! I wonder how he will respond.

[@thamessinclair2010]

***** What exactly is immoral about Conchita Wurst? Women are dressed and styled this way all the time on stage. Are they immoral too then? Chador proponents would probably say so. However shouldn't men also wear chadors then? Or maybe with men, for decency it's enough cover to grow a beard? ;)

[@matas91]

I love live performances, and i must say that was probably the best live voice for a quite a few years... No matter what Conchita i vote for You.

[@xleolovesyou]

Listen to the song of Belgium. Axel sings also very good live!

[@ZiLopes1]

***** Axel is also fantastic!!!

[@matas91]

Zi Lopes Indeed

[@IvankoFrame]

Почитал посты и удивился - как, все-таки, личная неприязнь может влиять на оценку. Причем это характерно, в основном, только для русских. Видимо их с детства приучили различать добро и зло, хорошее и плохое не по делам человека, а с позиции - кто этот человек. И если этот человек, не дай бог, не вписывается в рамки "свой", то он моментально становится врагом. Вот почему у России столько много врагов.

[@nuriyarumyanceva]

Вы молодец и я полностью поддерживаю Вас! Спасибо Вам!!!

[@rjjames9202]

Can you believe that a Serbian priest had the audacity to suggest that the floods in Southeast Europe, which killed about 63 people, were because God was punishing Europe for Conchita winning? Does this man, or any of you, not understand who God is? He is our loving and just creator, and that means He created Conchita, and she created this amazing song. Congratulations Conchita, do not ever let those who have nothing but hate in their hearts poison your talent!

[@AbsoluteTitt]

so basically our greatest achievements aren't because of our amazing efforts and blood sweat and tears but because of God? Who's the one "poisoning" the talent here?

[@BellumNonAequa]

Im just gonna put this out there, think about it for a second, just a second. God does not exist.

[@rjjames9202]

It doesn't matter how many times anyone tells me that, I will never not believe in a God that loves me and everyone else on this Earth. That's what faith is

[@carolynevers7924]

***** Neither do you.

[@DzinkyDzink]

"our loving and just" I am already signing in a que to torture you because you're going to hell for cheap religious trolling. I am also glad you failed with only 9 lieks and 4 comments including mine.

[@Axpojken]

WOW, SERIOUSLY WOOOOOW! She owns it. It's amazaing, my winner this year

[@spyware60]

Definitely top 10, wishing all the best from Belgium!

[@RiaGreece]

great voice!

[@danoindigo2]

I think this is probably the most well sung performance from technical perspective. Spot on! Well done! Every note was perfect!

[@MALAIXIYAREN]

I'm so rooting for Austria this year, Conchita is gorgeous! 12 points and genuine love from the Netherlands Vienna 2015!

[@IzzyLaif]

Well, bearded males singing female parts is exactly in Euro tradition, dating like 3000 years back to ancient Greek theater... So nothing new here, live on.

[@Darkdemonoflite]

LOL Exactly I just said the same in another vid

[@kotekutalia]

It's not theater, this guy takes her/himself serious as a girl unlike in Greek, which is Orthodox nation and I hope no one will do such thing YET!

[@IzzyLaif]

You're so wrong. Homosexuality was common place in Ancient Greece, which is all in the literature. Achilles and Patroclus slept with each other, for instance.

[@kotekutalia]

It was long time ago, when so called "left handed path" pagan religions were mainstream. I think we both should agree that upgrade is really good :)

[@IzzyLaif]

Unfortunately, present day Greeks and especially Egyptians were fucked and impregnated so much and so often by conquering Arabs, that this is a downgrade, genetically and spiritually. For instance when traveling for Greek ruins, I go to Turkey, not Greece, as most of them are on present-day Turkish territory.

[@LadyJaninka98]

even if you don't like conchita, you have to admit that she is really talented (if you disagree than you are totally tone deaf).

[@williammine1243]

Škoda že moc Čechů to tak nevidí

[@KenotheWolf]

Great she won (Its a man) Stop insulting conshita guys, why you cant accept People who are different? I like her

[@KenotheWolf]

Why you care? Not your problem. Its special.

[@maartjevandegriendt3130]

Levan Lortkipanidze She tries to explain the world that, no matter who you are, that you still need to be acceptable, and that's why she has a beard, she wants to be a woman, but she shows that she was a man, so she can explain that you can be whatever you want. She is great, and I'm happy that she won!

[@KenotheWolf]

maartje vd Griendt exactly but its difficult to tell these idiots

[@KenotheWolf]

Eoghan Murphy Sorry but its really sad people from 2014 still dont have the tolerance to accept others who are just different. She dont hurts other people or insults. She is a victim of dumb people who insult her. Nobody is forced to like her, and that is what she said too. But please have the tolerance to accept her as a human.

[@KenotheWolf]

***** Naja wenn es dir Spaß macht dann nur zu, nur finde ich nicht dass du dann Respekt verdienst :/

[@sixeyesheavens7]

You Don't Judge Anyone By Their Looks. I Love Austria's Choice This Year! It's Very Classical And This Is Austrian Style, Which Is Good. Because Each Country Has Originality! And This Is Austrian Originality :)

[@josevicentesaavedraperona8186]

you're completely right.

[@sixeyesheavens7]

I Am Thankful Others Are Really Agreeing

[@Whatsthequestionto42]

ahem, I hate to rain on your parade, but Tom/Conchita is years ahead of what Austria could ever be ... but we're not bad if he can make it that far and I'm proud of that. I kind of love all interviews because they show off how fab s/he is ... sorry for rambling ... migth need slep.

[@jygriselilja]

Peride Dacian he's a he in his everyday life and a she on stage. Both are correct. Don't be rude.

[@BridgetCameron]

Conchita definitely deserved to win. The performance was flawless, and awe inspiring. No other act 'moved' the audience and judges so greatly! Congratulations!

[@alexbartlett5118]

I'm sure God wouldn't appreciate all the bible bashers being disrespectful to this man. I thought he said "Love thy neighbor", not " discriminate against minorities"

[@Tim0o]

Or you know, common sense says that. You don't have to pull faith from a fictional source to be respectful of others.

[@alexbartlett5118]

Tim0o exactly.

[@alexbartlett5118]

***** *You're. God obviously didn't teach you how to use correct grammar

[@fwesterbergh]

I am so proud that Europe voted Conchita as our winner. This win is so much bigger than Eurovision it self - it's history. Amazing.

[@alymlon]

Oh dear... You will grow up one day

[@rexiwow]

Don't forget about La dolcevita Same thing diffrent song truly amazing .. Going trough every social media page and seeing all the hate is making me sick and along comes people like you that might be the hope for our world to be that little bit better :)

[@AnesBosna]

Amazing live, Conchita! You deserve a ticket to the final this year. I am gonna hope that you'll make it. Good luck in 8th may! :3

[@MentallyFive]

Absolutely amazing and incredible!!!! Perfection!!!

[@ramona1505]

Conchita is wonderful. ♥

[@leonheimbourger2231]

Quand j'ai regardé l'Eurovision 2014 je n'en croyais pas mes yeux. Et pourtant oui il était là avec une voix unique. Bravo et merci. Bonne chance pour l'avenir

[@oki10otakei]

He have a nice voice, I don't fucking care his gender. I only want to listen him singing, not reading stupid people calling him "ugly" or "disgusting" just for being a genderqueer :| It's his body and his voice, and he is so talented.

[@oki10otakei]

Владимир Кисьов I'm a heterosexual woman. And you don't care if I were gay, that's not your problem.

[@ullastromberg3672]

Владимир Кисьов Are you braindead ?

[@BraindeadCRY]

Ulla Strömberg I find insults to braindead people to be offensive! stop it!

[@TheMiffyMassacre]

This is like when swing/jazz became famous and people were disgusted and outraged because they felt their culture was invaded with ''black music''. In fifty, or even twenty, years people will laugh at the negative reactions to this person and be relieved they are so advanced in their values, just like we do today (and obviously we aren't very open minded..).

[@XtremuZ]

the problem is that people don't understand if he/she is supposed to have a penis or a vagina..

[@hils1973]

XtremuZ Why does it matter to you. Do you want her?

[@NN-fw5yg]

XtremuZ You stupid. Why should that be a problem for you bastards. This is a BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEING singing and that's all matters. Deal with it!

[@TheMiffyMassacre]

XtremuZ It's all a matter of adaptation. Soon this will be normalized and something else will become the outrageous phenomenon, just like it always has been through history.

[@XtremuZ]

comparing something that you entitle homophobic with racism is just pathetic

[@schreiberspence]

Marvelous performance. Gotta love the depth of her voice!

[@koorigirl88]

Guys its not your life to judge so keep your comments to yourself and let her live her life the way she wants it. i am so happy for her to express herself like that to the whole world these are the people who is an inspiration to all. GO CONCHITA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@volkodav05]

Кстати, почему никто не говорит о том, что Россия в голосовании отдала Кончите третье место?

[@volkodav05]

Видимо у вас своя Россия. И не вся Россия соответствует вашим требованиям. В принципе вы имеете право на свое мнение, так же как и те кто голосовал за Кончиту. Лично мне понравилась Sanna Nielsen.

[@kitcarson8462]

volkodav05 Консенсус !

[@YoraNoury]

Мы отдали Австрии лишь 5 баллов, что означает лишь, то, что люди, которые смотрели Евровидение, а не просто узнали результаты, куда более толлерантны, чем вы думаете х)

[@britainfannatic]

This was a strong, powerful performance. I applaud Conchita and anyone else who is gay/trans who wants to be exactly who they want to be.

[@youaremypreciousone]

It's just disgusting to read the homophobic and hating comments on this vid ....

[@gabrielgreenwoodschannel]

Austria never goes through to the final. If this manages to make it, with all the hate this song has gotten, it will surely be a breakthrough for Europe's LGBT community, especially since Russia's voting in this semi-final!

[@gabrielgreenwoodschannel]

wait, im wrong, Russia's not voting in this semi-final, whoops.

[@raenej4634]

Gabe Greenwood But Belarus is and that's the country that wants to cut Conchita from the broadcast.

[@jakobbjrk4614]

Nuna Nej They can fuck themselves, who cares about a country which stayed in the 18th century?? :-)

[@gabrielgreenwoodschannel]

Actually no I was right, russia IS voting. AND Belarus. oh shit, this will be interesting.

[@sighyan]

"In 2007, Neuwirth reached the final of the 2007 Austrian casting show Starmania, and returned to television in 2011 in drag as the character "Conchita Wurst," a persona he created in response to earlier experiences, and said, "This is about an important message, it's call for tolerance for everything that seems different." That is an amazing message. And he is right. We should be tolerant for everything that seems different. Just because he looks weird and different doesn't mean we should be hating him. He did absolutely nothing wrong. Great job to him, that was a fantastic performance!

Everyone has their reason for being. Whether gay, lesbian, bisexual women and men, Gay or transvestite as Conchita. If you do not want to see you then saving those comments that are looking away but below the belt. What would you say if someone were to ask you in public as merely? Surely you were not excited about it. Therefore completely ALL people should be treated with respect!

I really don't get with the amount of dislikes on he's videos. Just because he's gay and in drag. Who cares? If that what's make him happy and comfortable about himself, then it really doesn't matter. Who cares really, it's about the song and the talent, not about he's appearance. He seems like a genuine, nice guy.

[@_Forte]

как по мне, так песня совершенно не запоминающаяся, явно не хит! да, слух есть, но голос, сам тембр совершенно не нравится, исполнение так же... ну и за что 1 место то? за то, что мужик в образе бабы с бородой вышел на сцену??? почему вообще такое было разрешено к показу? евровидение смотрят дети!!! и что они должны видеть? вот это? это ненормально, товарищи! я не была за Россию, потому что девочки выступили все таки слабее, чем некоторые из участников, но ставить на 1 место транса с бородой и неудачной песней (тем более) - это абсурд!!! Да кто угодно Швеция, Армения, Норвегия... но только не ЭТО!

[@user-em7ki8rp2b]

Полностью согласна с Вами!)

[@user-ht8bl5dc6t]

Что тут не понятного, Европа давно тролит нас, а мы всё ведёмся, все обсуждают, у всех пригорело "как это так". Не смотрите телевизор, и уж тем более не позволяйте смотреть детям. И мне очень-очень понравилось выступление наших девочек. И да это не транс, это ОБРАЗ, как Верка Сердючка. В 1998 победил(а) Дана Интернэшнел.

[@Gangubas1]

В следующей раз Пустим певцов с х...ем на лбу

[@Rejax_de_Ketor]

Gangubas1 Джигурду в дуэте со Зверевым. И можно вешаться нахрен. Одно радует, 6-1 сегодня ^_^

[@_Forte]

Про казник Да, уже в контакте обсуждали данную тему. Да, конечно, Данилко, Дана - это мужины. НО! Есть огромная разница! Дану никто даже не заподозрил, что она была раньше - мужчиной и выглядит она как женщина. И если дети и смотрели телевизор, то они видели женщину! Когда выступал Данилко, с этим тоже все ясно - это юмористический персонаж на сцене, это образ, в конце концов яиц из под юбки и щетинки (а тем более БОРОДЫ) у него (Верки Сердючки) не было. А тут иная ситуация... Тут вроде бы женщина, а вроде бы и мужчина, потому что присутствует ростительность на лице. Ведь у детей есть же представление как должна выглядить тетя или дядя. И явно у тети не бывает такой вот растительности на лице , такое бывает только у дяди. И "Кончита" представил свой номер не как развлекательно-увеселительный (как Данилко), а вполне серьезный номер с глубоким подтекстом. Впрочем он и сам не отрицает этого и прежде всего тем самым он хотел выступить так именно что бы доказать и показать всему миру, что есть и вот такие как он и что нужно принимать их вот такими, какие они есть. Я НЕ ПРОТИВ геев, но я против вот такой массовой пропаганды, а Евровидение - это массовая передача,это шоу, которое весь мир смотрит

[@nyko7898]

WHY CANT AMERICA HAVE EUROVISION. I want stuff like this. Just amazing.

I hope we get more woman like her.. shes cooler and much better than a lot of the woman in my life.

[@MacPCtheGamerPlaysBrokenGames]

Listen here, you haters: 1: Conchita won, because she/he was popular, she/he is talented and she/he has a good singing voice 2: This is Europe, everyone can live their way they want. Everyone is and should be, equally respected. 3: Lets go back to 1960's: If women used jeans, she was very rude and thought to be crazy. Every girl had to use a dress in that timeline. 4: Yeah, if women puts up jeans, tuxedo, cuts her hair and uses make up, its completely okay. But when man has long hair, make up, a dress and a beard, its a red alert. 5: Stop... sending... those... god... damn... kill threats... to... Conchita. You can just tell us your opinion and complain about her/his look and talent, BUT YOU ARE GOING TOO FAR, IF YOU SEND KILL THREATS. 6: If you dont like this video, GO AWAY! DONT COMPLAIN ABOUT "Propagandavision" OR "Face of Europe" If you got a problem with these fine words, you can take them up with me. I DARE YOU!

Mari Laui Die ESC-Abstimmung als tolerant zu bezeichnen ist das absolut lustigste, was ich heute gelesen habe.

[@MrPassante]

***** Diese Entwicklung kann Chancen bringen, aber auch schnell negativ, im Sinne immer weiterer Übertrumpfung des außergewöhnlichen- ja, außergewöhnliches KANN kitschig und geschmacklos sein. Aber KUNST, ihre Entwicklung ist u war immer eine grenzüberschreitung, Ephatage, Schock- u das i sinnvoll, da es ne Vorbereitung des Menschen für gesellschaftliche Progresse, sonst blieben wir im Mittelalter. Das is 1 Grund, warum islamische Staaten rückständig bleiben:Hemmungen! Und noch ist seehr wichtig. Als Erzieher in vielen Grundschulen,weiß ich, wie die ungewöhnlich, z b HS, wirkende, Kinder schickaniert werden.Oder einige Viertklässler leiden an Gedanken, ob sie "normall" sind. Umfrage der EU-Grundrechteagentur: Zwei Drittel von HS,Trans.. haben in der Schule ihre sexuelle Ausrichtung verborgen oder verheimlicht. Mindestens 60 Prozent von ihnen wurden in der Schule mit abwertenden Kommentaren bedacht oder begegneten dort negativem Verhalten. Mir tun Leid nicht nur die Mobbingo​pfer sondern auch die "Täter". Ich kann nur mit den beiden nur reden, wofür ich fast immer zu wenig Zeit habe. Aber mir wurde aus Angst vor Eltern untersagt, mit der Gruppe mit dem Thema Mobbing auch wegen HS auseinanderzusetzen. Eine Schule u eine Gesellschaft ohne Angst und Diskriminierung egal wegen was zu schaffen, das wäre sowohl für die Opfer als auch für die "Täter" seeeehr gut. Also eher " Diese Entwicklung kann Chancen bringen"--ich stimme dir zu. C W und EU-Bürger haben ihren Beitrag dafür geleistet. Respekt u DANKE an alle!

[@marcelonayaravadapalabra7504]

SO glad she could pull it off. The vocals are almost flawless and it does feel heartfelt and serious. Hope the ones still wondering whether this was a joke entry will come round. Until the Russians (not all of them, though) find out about this clip and start commenting crap.

Amazing song and voice...I´ll vote for you. Good luck from Portugal.

[@aidenchia3663]

This song is so Austrian. The musical arrangements, the singing, I close my eyes and see Vienna.

[@MrZekefun]

It doesn't matter what he/she IS, she/or he has voice and that is what matters most more power to him or her well done

[@aimafa]

This song actually touches me...I really hope that she will be in the final!!!

[@djdean75]

Wow! Winner!!! I will be surprised if Austria doesn't win with this performance and by the way the singer is beautiful.. from Dean United Kingdom :)

[@nuriyarumyanceva]

Мощно! Ярко! Индивидуально и талантливо! Я восхищена! БЛАГОдарю!

[@fuudanshi]

i swear to god all the negative comments are making me sick like this performer is going up on stage sharing they passion and all you can say is "ew what is THAT why doesn't it shave" like excuse you they have every right to dress and identify however they want. Why do you care. They're incredibly talented and look incredible. (and to everyone who's trying to be respectful and polite, good for you!)

[@JBSBemome]

he is a good singer, I have to say!

[@dannydanutzu1]

***** and u are so stupid and brainwashed!! Seriously???

[@FeralNyxen]

***** Conchita is female, thanks. Transphobic much? Seriously, both of you, are you so sad that you go onto a video of a person you so overwhelmingly hate with however much hatred your narrow-minded brains allow, and then put down a comment? Really?

[@BitMan1010]

A trans-lover over me

[@user-qt5kh5ih9n]

Yacoub Autra better than a fucking ponyphile

[@INNUENDOIKA]

he? have you any idea what the fuck is that ? :D

[@fia9052]

He´s an amazing singer! To bad that his apperence sadly will make him loose many points. Europe is not ready for this "message" that he´s trying to send out

[@Steff2929again]

Most of those who are offended by this character won't be watching this kind of show at all. His appearance may actually be what it takes to be successful. It's usually impossible to predict the outcome of this contest, so we just have to wait and see. I agree that he is an amazing singer. I don't know what a young man in an evening dress and painted on beard is supposed to represent. But whatever it is, it adds a somewhat exotic element to this otherwise quite boring contest.

[@NaomiIancu]

True Ann-Sofie Larsson

[@kustomkure]

well, I for one am quite ready

[@THEwafell]

He's far from good singer, only thing he has is appearance

[@fia9052]

Are u serious? It´s not often a person comes over a voice this beautiful. It´s strong and he hits every note perfectly

[@liamvandevelde8373]

A well diserved first place!!! what a voice!! Very talented indeed!! You go Conchita!!

[@dra-kos2794]

Ich finde die Botschaft und den Gesang sehr gut. Ich finde Er verdient Respekt dafür das er Mutig genug ist so aufzutreten. Mein Lob hat Er.

[@el_naif]

O.M.F.G. This MUST be fighting for the winning.

[@GoldenSummet]

Enough with this hating towards the message that Conchita is giving, she is saying that gender and what we look like is unimportant and that what truly is important is who we are and what we do and for that I am so glad she won with the amazing rise like a pheonix

[@linado14]

she's amazing!

[@DEthe5150]

I enjoyed this; reminded me of 007 film from the 20th Century! There's nothing wrong with this singer. Congrats on winning the Eurovision Song Contest!

[@Lo95Lek]

handsome woman

[@ReadMore228]

Badass woman

[@NyappyHoi]

John Doe Beautiful woman.

[@estherheeren7849]

Wait, that's a women? She/he has a beard!!!

[@HeidiPungartnik]

Esther Heeren so? what defines a woman? not having a beard? :)

[@PrzemRecords]

Heidi Pungartnik Reproductive system? That is, was and will be the scientific, cultural and social definition of woman. He can pretend to be female, but he will always be a man, no matter what happens. Fate is blind on our preferences and nor do I, you or anyone else can do anything about it, no matter how much we would want to.

[@SilverStrumer]

The song is amazing. The performance would be a lot cooler if they didn't show Conchita's face/beard until the "You have got to see to believe" part of the song just to surprise the viewers in Eurovision :-)

[@9afina]

She has the sexiest hands in the world ... and charming smile! And flirty eyes like the night sky. She is kind and sensitive. Our Conchita.

[@yamirzender222]

magical song and wonderful conchita i liked too much the lights and all the lights effects-

[@user-gu7uf3sf6b]

I am from Russia! I will vote for her! If only our morons will not refuse to broadcast! Posh voice, appearance! Super song!

[@crimsonglory5109]

This is a fucking disgrace, to all the humanity. What is the world coming to? It's degrading in an alarming rate, which deeply saddens me.

[@internettehnolog]

Amen brother.

[@theprophecy11]

Rob Halford is gay, dude. I don't see nothing wrong with this artist.

[@crimsonglory5109]

Rob halford is my favorite vocalist ever, and to be honest, I was slightly taken aback when I first heard that he was gay. But Halford is still a metal God so.

[@user-ke3mz2up9t]

He is the best singer of the Eurovision, that is true, his song was the best, he deserved his victory, Austria and Armenia were the best

[@iworld8838]

Good luck from Armenia :)

[@mothersdaughter61]

Some of the comments really shock me. This is a wonderful song with an amazing artist.

[@emilgrind6162]

I admire people who don't care about what the other says and remain just what they are!!!

[@iiInsidious]

Her pronoun is female. Conchita is a beautiful singer and i adore the message shes sending, even if you dont like her appearance for ignorance or 'religious' beliefs, you cannot find her voice absolutely breath taking

[@TheBeestNews]

So good! thats it

[@georgecraker8972]

That's fucking not normal

[@tbdriss4165]

Fucking serious???

[@Velocity1912]

ich verstehe die menschheit nicht mehr. wie kann man so etwas super toll finden? jeder sagt das er eine wunderschöne stimme hat und dachte mir, ich höre es mir mal an. ganz ehrlich? stimme: scheisse, aussehen: scheisse. nichts gegen diese person, es kann ein guter mensch sein aber das aussehen schön zu finden, ist für mich nicht nachvollziehbar. was soll dieser bart? wenn man als mann schon wie eine frau aussehen will dann macht man doch auch diesen bart weg. das ist einfach hässlich. überhaupt, dass man als mann wie ne frau aussehen will und umgekehrt ist genau so eine störung im gehirn. da ist eindeutig was schief gelaufen. 

[@Velocity1912]

***** jeder hat eine andere meinung und mich selber interessiert es nicht was conchita macht aber man kann ja auch seine meinung äußern oder nicht? aus welchem grund soll ich umdenken? sage ich ihnen das sie umdenken sollen? ich denke das sie meine meinung nicht respektieren können, aber okay. ich diskrminiere niemanden, wir sind alles menschen, aber menschen die das gegenteil sein wollen was sie in wirklichkeit sind ist für mich wirklich nicht nachvollziehbar. es gibt da ja einen berühmten spruch, "sei so wie du bist, denn alle anderen gibt es schon". für mich ist conchitas fall eine unzufriedenheit mit sich selbst. genau aus dem grund ist bei solchen menschen etwas schief gelaufen.

[@mikapika6326]

Shim has a beautiful voice! :P I loved every bit of it! And it was his/hers way of expressing himself/herself... Good on you for being brave!

[@GENERALSATANA]

Голосовал за Кончиту. Рад, что она победила. Russia love you, Conchita!

[@gundogan11]

this song is unreal
