Even if the production team has to ditch the giant microphone at the end, it doesn't matter. If you watch her second performance that night (after she won), she doesn't have the props and consequently doesn't do much of the choreography (as the props take a bit of setting up). It's just her on the stage, and it is even better than her first performance. So, the props & the bells & whistles are nice, but Erika herself is all that is needed for a stellar performance. She came, she saw, and she slayed.

I am kinda missing the video clip vibe . The sexiness, the dancers .. Yeah erika fills the stage , she has strong presence . However the song is funny and i think it was performed like a rock song

@@deixekwlarak I don't think this will be a thing, but this song sounds like it's sung by a hybrid of mythological sirens and Valkyries. Like both seductive and commanding. Definitely would jump out of a ship and drown for her 10/10.

The vocals had me so nervous at first but thank God she got so much better after the first verse. Erika said she was in shock and nervous at first until she clicked to autopilot which is probably when the vocals clicked in place since it was just muscle memory at that point. I think she can definitely sing it live, she just needs to be in control of her nerves especially with the verses

The music video was a bit too much. But this performance is amazing. I can't imagine a song in this style from any other country being better than Erika's. In her semi-final, Erika will eat every other female contestant's performance which comes close to her style. Unrivaled.

I was there in front row watching her and she crabbed the arena in to her iron fist 💪🏽 I loved that they didn't overstage this and there were no props or dancers blocking her at any point because she is just so charismatic naturally. I was able to give her a hug and snatch a picture with her after the show and in presence she is such a sweet person 💗

She timed her first word too late and in the lower register of her voice she was weak. That is unfortunately often common in female artists who make it up with their excellent higher registers or backing track. Still she was the right winner of the evening who made commanding use of the catwalk and she owned the stage all by herself (with her microphone stands). My only problem is that I wanted more 80s/90s blow-dry/ hair spray hair but I can forgive her that omission;)

Yes, in the beginning she sounded a bit weak, but got better til the end. She is a strong performer, so I hope in ESC she can do it from the beginning to the end. I wish they will bring something more on the stage. Not much, but this was too bland for me. (P.s. This song is very multiligual since it has German: "Ich Komme"+"Wunderbar", French: "Encore" and English: "Let go" in the middle of all Finnish.. ☺)
