I...I am still so heartbroken it took two days for me to come back to this...

Like that. This song will never be on a Eurovision stage. We will see things that are 100 times cheaper and blander, but not this. Not this, that could have risked winning. Life is so damn unfair sometimes. In hindsight, maybe this was shaping up to be too strong of a contest, and your destiny is to come back in a year when you guys can be in the spotlight for real. Because the only way I have to stay sane after this is to hope, deep in my heart, that you three will never leave each other's side and will, one day, try again to reach your dream to win Eurovision. Maybe not next year, maybe not the year after. But one day, it's coming. I wish it for you with all of my heart. 💙

It's been 2 days and I'm still trying to process the fact this didn't win. Norway, what were you thinking.

[@ingebjrghalset9839]

I can’t speak for everyone, but i was thinking i would vote for my favourite song, from an artist ive been following for years.

[@CecilieEnersen]

on behalf of Norway who didn't vote for TIX: I have no fricking idea

[@petarristovski8530]

Meybe they prefer the satanic songds then this masterpiece

[@musclefreak777]

Young kids voted TIX...the middle and older voted keiino...l am disappointed myself... Most people know TIX was one of 5 ,co writing AVA MAX-SWEET BUT PSYCHO...but with fallen angel it will be to difficult...maybe top 10...

[@helenetorgersen9991]

The thing is that Tix have a big fan base, and if you have been following him for a while he has shared a lot of his story, and this fallen angle song is a part of his story. That’s why a lot of people voted for him, because it’s not just a song, it’s part of a story he tells in a few songs and that makes it more personal and that’s a big reason why people voted, because they already know parts of the story.

[@majaskorupa5191]

Am I the only one who absolutely love their on stage chemistry? Like, they are actually a band, not just random people performancing together. They sing together and it's just beautiful. Good luck Keiino, i'm really hoping to see you winning esc someday, love from Poland❤️

[@dtb4903]

Can’t believe they chose a bland song over this masterpiece. I guess they voted for the person instead of the song. In any case, good luck to tix :)

[@Bragej98]

Just like when they voted alexander rybak over rebecca in 2018

[@SailorMoonFan92]

Yes, big mistake. It's the Eurovision Song Contest, not the Eurovision Person Contest lol

[@YvonneRXT]

Thought Keiino was too similar to their last entry. Overrated sorry. Tix was more fresh, sang from the heart.

[@EclipseHighroller]

No, bad luck to tix, I hope Norway comes in dead last

[@esmay.stokhof]

@@YvonneRXT I personally like this song way better, besides Spirit in the sky did great and Monument would have been just as great if not better.

lmao after the actual contest took place, no way this would have won. Dated.

So devastated because you lost the show tonight. However, monument, for me, is one of the greatest songs of 2021! I watched MGP really rooting for you to win. Love from Brazil! 🇧🇷 🇳🇴

[@timramaekers810]

I immediately loved TIX -Fallen Angel in the Semi-finals, but when reading through some comments I noticed a lot of people that were heartbroken because a group called 'KEiiNO' didn't make it to the ESC. Being curious to see what should have been better than TIX brought me here. And I'm grateful for that. In just a couple of days I have discovered two amazing talents which would both be the best at this year's ESC. Just send this one next year. What amazing artists Norway has! Hilsen fra Belgia!
