She’s standing on a bridge ❤👌🏽🇩🇰

[@lukasic]

Loved her performance. She didn’t win the televote because her competitor, Basim, is a national crowd favorite whose career we have followed since he was a kid, and this was his return to the stage. Saba is definitely the winner song and performance wise. Thanks for the kind words, we appreciate it! x

Janus also got more televote points than her.

@@CL21x True, and Janus also had an entire Faroe Islands voting for him by default, which I am sure added. No hate though, he is a powerful singer and deserved the support.

It's pure speculation that we are biased in favor of Basim. I don't believe it. I believe his song just had better lyrics and he had a better performance, and Saba's song melody advantage was not enough to win our favor. But a few juries decided in her favor, at least adding huge randomness into the selection process, and possibly biased voting because she was the pre-show betting favorite. We will fail again because of it.

@@jjhmr Well yes, but it is rational speculation. If you look at it from a more objective point of view, it must be an advantage to any one performer entering a song contest that they 1) have won the song contest before, and haven’t faced any huge backlash, and 2) received positive news coverage and media reactions upon returning to said contest. Coupled with him being an X-Factor darling, it just makes sense that he has an advantage to sway the public over someone mostly unknown. Fx, if the general voter enjoyed Sand more but like Basim as an artist and person, they may vote for both which makes it harder for Sand to take the lead, and if the voter liked both songs but only votes for one of them win, a bias towards Basim is already established. Saba did not have these factors or any additional going for her with the televotes, hence why Basim most likely came out on top in the results.

@@jjhmr Saba was the right choice. Thank God for the jury that has a better understanding of Eurovision, and not just what works in Denmark
