I am delighted that she gave her 12 to Iceland who are my personal faves! If Barbara wins on Saturday that would mean BOTH of the next ESC competitions would be in France! That would be crazy!!

[@lisabauch3374]

SAME OMG

[@fvnt0miix953]

For me Barbara and Maneskin are equally good, 2 different genre, both songs have deep and relevant meanings. Maneskin brings back Rock&Roll that has been "lost" for the past decade, but Barbara's song is so classic and I LOVE the ending and the transition between the 3 verses of Voila. Another difference is each of Maneskin's performance is the same as their recorded version (which is great), but Barbara's live version is actually BETTER than her original song because of all the emotion she's putting into the performance. I can hear the difference in each of her performance (Eurovision France, Semi-final, Finals) and the final performance is SO beautiful and emotional, she really gave everything to that performance. I feel like she could have won if Maneskin wasn't in this competition or if she participated another year lol, but oh well she still did amazing and gained lots of international fans!

[@lisabauch3374]

@@fvnt0miix953 oh yes I absolutely agree!!

[@eggon_1345]

[@JulianSirian]

One of the most talented singers of all time... She just chose the wrong year... that's all. Italy were (pretty much) always going to win. But her song is a STUNNER... that cannot be argued. Would love to see her at Eurovision again, but highly unlikely. It's a shame. Whatever happens, hope she does well in her career. She deserves it ;-) Blessings from the UK.
