Chiara - Angel (Malta) Live - Eurovision Song Contest 2005

Chiara represented Malta at the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest in Kyiv with the song Angel

[@GeorgeAustinTay]

Malta, a little island with no neighbors and no migrants voting for it from abroad, managed to arrive 2nd with 100% televote and 3rd slot in the running order. They did an amazing job that year, they should be proud of Chiara! Only Russia awarded them a fair amount of points (12)

[@serge-s-lumiere]

It's almost 2017 but I still remember her and this song. She's an awesome memory that'll stay in history of Eurovision for decades more.

[@feihe2053]

Agree! It's very hard for them to get this place with 3rd in running order and without bloc voting

[@freyja8384]

George Austin Tay I voted for Malta in 2005, one of the best esc songs ever in my opinion, from Iceland ❤️🇮🇸

[@kaitlinbilous4605]

3rd was luckier in the past 58,71,94

[@GeorgeAustinTay]

@Raoul Həsənəlizadə the jury loves voting for whoever is topping the betting odds, though, and it was Greece in 2005... so idk

[@iyamt]

2005 was definitely a beautiful year at the ESC with amazing songs!

[@irina1296]

@Kyriakos Vlachos It wasn't the best. Not even close but it was good too

[@AMHAD.]

2004 was best

Just a woman alone on stage singing her heart out. A sweet ballad and a powerful voice. Not many singers can do that and be marvellous. Very fun also that Greece was so different. Greece and Helena/Elena was great too but this is one of my absolute favorites. And this is also the best of Chiaras Angel performances I have seen and heard.

[@danielmerino1827]

So close to the victory twice...! 3rd in 1998 and 2nd in 2005... by the way, she looks so much better here than back in 1998!

[@yeseniasrevenge3018]

She was brilliant and deserves big congratulations for doing so well with 100% televoting.

[@ClausMichaelFasting]

MESC OFFICIAL It was 50/50

[@TVESCFAN]

No, 100 % televote at the time. The 50/50 system was introduced in 2009 (final only) and 2010 (semi-finals and final).

[@jessicamy]

In 2005, 100% tele-voting was used. It was not until 2009 that the 50/50 voting was introduced.

[@Adrian.Lei4]

No , in 2005 was 100% televoting .

[@leclercqthibaut5288]

The best of her three ESC entries.

[@rafadydkiemmacha7543]

I also love What If We, underrated.

[@nickdavidelijah]

HAVE LOVED THIS SONG since 2005! amazing Malta. love from Australia xoxo

[@mariaseppanen3609]

She was my winner that year, still a great song

[@maxx6299]

So touching....

[@alexroll7375]

If there were juries that year Malta could won

[@charltonpace460]

Kiriakos Greeksson back than no juries were used just televote only☺️

[@paulskyekahawaty6133]

It would have been a toss between Malta, Israel and Latvia had there been juries that year.

[@basilm]

guys we'll never see this kind of song again.. amazing quality ❤️

[@aleksanderpagels288]

How about Amar pelos dois..

[@LiliLovesStuff]

Whenever I see one of you're comments I think "Oh, 'sup Basil?".

[@itseurovisiontime]

EWWWWW NO this is better by miles

[@hrk3y]

Angel of Eurovision.

[@Imp1981]

What a relief between all these drums in 2005!

[@rafaelkarim6425]

Most beautiful song of all euro contests

[@TonyMontana-si5ek]

I dont know how but this song sounds just so magical and i feel emotional every time i watch it

[@rafadydkiemmacha7543]

Because it's a great song.

[@noelmcmahon3407]

I love this songs and it should have won the Eurovision song contest and it is so sweet and i love Chaira

[@johnkont93]

those are the good years of eurovision with songs that were well writen,meaningful lyrics and made a noise in the arena when a specific country performed....

[@leclercqthibaut5288]

Pure magic. She's a goddess.

[@leclercqthibaut5288]

Simply perfect. I would like to hear her again, but she's too good for Eurovision.

[@smrtfasizmu6161]

Agree. A beautiful song.

[@samikamppi8279]

Best Song from Malta

[@umitarslan4137]

Perfect voice!

[@jessicamy]

This song is so beautiful and sung beautifully.

[@klausmerzbacher3037]

I had seen Chiara on stage in Valetta. Great personality and great voice.

[@noelmcmahon3407]

I love this masterpiece and it is so stunning and i love it it should have won the Eurovision song contest and i love Malta

[@rma9931]

We love you Malta x

[@mirela2755]

Beautiful! ♥

[@Ornochestror]

My winner

[@stinabjornberg5711]

This is an amazing song and performance. Would love to be able to listen to it on Spotify.

[@GreyGuerillaNetwork]

One of my favorite runners-up of the 21st Century. Chiara hasn't had a single bad entry for Eurovision, but "Angel" has to be my personal favorite. Such a crisp voice, paired with a lovely stage presence. 💙💙💙

[@sheriwoozidan]

nothing but shivers, chiara is an angel in her own right.

[@user-bz8ml9sz8w]

Elle méritait de gagner avec une chanson et une voix aussi magnifique, c'est trop trop beau ❤❤❤❤

[@kuclu91]

The winner that year, the biggest crime of 2005

[@sotirisgeo1454]

My 3d congratulations Malta🌟🌟❤

[@icecranberry2148]

I sometimes feel so bad for Chiara.......she is really Katja Ebstein of the decade........I hope she does come back (obv can't in 2019 but later maybe) and wins!

[@user-fj4xw9on4i]

Why not in 2019?

[@icecranberry2148]

MESC, their national final, will be no more. Their entrant will be chosen solely through X Factor Malta and she doesn't really fit in the 'undiscovered, unknown' artists category.

[@user-fj4xw9on4i]

@@icecranberry2148 who is Katja Ebstein?

[@icecranberry2148]

+Γιωργος Παπαπετρου Katja Ebstein is a German singer who represented them (back then it was West Germany) in 1970, 1971 and 1980. She is considered one of the most unlucky artists competing in Eurovision because she placed second once and third twice.

[@user-fj4xw9on4i]

@@icecranberry2148 hahah ok but competing in eurovision three times and entering top 3 each time of them is not exactly unluckiness

[@ernestastan9771]

"Angel" still in 2022..❤🇱🇹

[@freemangriffin4953]

This song should have won for 2005! Brilliant!! So much better than the winner that year!

[@user-xf1vh8xu4w]

Great voice not something special as a song! Elena so much better!!

[@norbertvarga6555]

Real winner

[@alexk.2332]

Chiara WE LOVE YOU!!!!! You were my winner that year (and I come from Greece). Your songs are AMAZING!!! You are my winner twice, in 1998 (way better than "Diva") and in 2005 (Better than our loved Helena). In 2009 you were so UNDERRATED!!! You were my runner-up (After Iceland of course). You have the best voice in ESC. I hope you 'll come again in ESC for the last time with an amazing Ballad and win EVERYTHING.

[@yoyo-xd5td]

U just called the iconic diva bullshit should anyone really take u seriously? Lmaooo

[@alexk.2332]

@@yoyo-xd5td If that's such a problem for you, I will change it ;) But Chiara was still better

[@yoyo-xd5td]

@@alexk.2332 hahahaha that's ok I respect ur opinion I'm just saying that it's still a pretty iconic song you know

[@smrtfasizmu6161]

Bravo Bravissimo

[@tsksat717]

i voted for this song with my dad. i was 8 years old. :)

[@bohansen2008]

Eurovision 2005 Malta winner for me ❤️

[@NoNameUwUxX]

She said Destiny hmmm... Destiny is going to get a 2nd place xD? 😂 (I hope so, or first too I love Destiny❤👑✨🇲🇹)

[@DavidDCTarn]

This is MORE better than ''My Number One!!''

[@EurovisionFan91]

This or Il Volo are the two biggest Eurovision crimes for me. For not winning :)

[@irina1296]

I think Israel had much better ballad in 2005

[@el_naif]

When Chiara peaked.

[@RBenjo21]

The quality on this version is much better than the one uploaded in 2012, so will you remove that one?

[@irina1296]

Nice, touching but I prefer Israel, Romania, Slovenia

[@keshyous]

Chiara was robbed just like Ira in 2002

[@LiliLovesStuff]

How about Chiara in 1998? She's come in second twice with two gorgeous songs.

[@alexk.2332]

@@MrSpookyLover But she was still robbed. Way better than this thing "Diva".

[@alexk.2332]

@@MrSpookyLover I am not hating I just say that I don't like this song "Diva" at all

[@Alkymisten100]

The chorus sound so similar to Celine Dions "The power of love."

[@user-es7eu4zl3p]

2 место

[@linpet99]

This should have won, not Greece.

[@yungbratthekilla3864]

This is giving celine dion vibes

[@dianedabbott6164]

meat on the bone

[@lgmadrid]

Sweet performance but for me not a winner song.

[@petrematei5661]

I really don't think this beats Romanian entry .

[@hep8008]

It did in the result lol

[@furkansagpvp7824]

overrated
