- Salvador Sobral from Portugal won the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest in Kyiv with the song Amar Pelos Dois. This is his winning performance together with his sister Luísa.
- Zábava
This singing of both siblings together - he the singer, she the songwriter - was one of the best moments in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest.
Mi K yet the song is very simple and meaningful! This song only created by one people and they don't need eurovision winner to write the song and put a lot of famous art director to win! This show us that Eurovision is Not only pop music, rock music and dance music. This is by far the most memorable win in the 00s
Honestly, I think that if his sister were to sing this song Portugal still would've won. Such a remarkable voice, she doesn't need to scream in order to be heard or remembered.
Hmmm [thinks for a moment] ... yes, she would.
She's actually a fairly well known jazz singer . more famous than her brother.
She would not have won.
Mi K true
Some people call him arrogant because of his words. But an arrogant man does not choose to share the greatest moment of his professional career with his sister. A beautiful gesture.
He's just honest, witch can be very unconvenient! :D
She s the writter of the song
It's not the best moment of his professional career. Not for a guy like him.
this is an love song wo the hell "arrogant"
@@tomasalves3462 I think that comment referred to what he said when he was talking to the hosts
Luisa starting to sing was probably my favourite moment of the whole contest.
never forgetting that moment. I legit started crying
still is imho.
i love his reaction when luisa starts to sing, he’s like ‘look! this is my sister, she’s an absolute legend and i adore her and what she does!’
He was being her wingman, which is amazing.
"Music is not fireworks." With a few words... he says it all.
and a year later a chicken "lady" won who call men rubbish. Poor Salvador..
Duncan: "Noted."
Eleni Fuego hold my Fire
Måneskin: we shall not surrender!
@@istvanhegyesi9274 That music had meaning, it might not mean much. But a lot of female empowerment
I came to Portugal for holiday but ended up with urgent eye surgery. While I was recovering at the hospital in Porto, I was told Sunday morning that the country had won the song contest. I then heard it for the very first time. Salvador Sobrals voice was very soothing while I was vulnerable, on my own in a country where wasn't able to understand anything. But people were friendly and I felt completely safe. So wherever I go, there will always be a chip of Portuguese in me. Regards from a deeply thankful Dane.

Anders Bo Petersen to Danemark 🇩🇰 all love and respect from Portugal 🇵🇹
Respect ;) thanks !!!! u r always welcome in Portugal :)
Thanks!!! From a doctor from 🇵🇹
hope you fine bro! thanks from portugal, hope you come again :)
At first, I didn't like the song at all. But now I can understand why he won.
At the beginning, Eurovision was a contest in which each country tries to show the world a piece of his culture, of his soul. But now, every country seems to present the same kind of commercial songs, in which the singer simply sings. This year, the humility, the identity, won in a contest full of "Spotify's songs" and the winner's final performance, with his sister, is the most beautiful performance a winner had ever made in Eurovision.
Greetings from Spain
Soto?? Ahaha you might be my spanish long lost cousin :D and thank you for your sweet words. Kisses from Portugal
CZcams and ESC bring me back my lost cousin! My mother is from Galicia, so maybe it is not crazy ;)
So good to see ESC and the internet uniting people instead of making everyone fight, for once :D Thank you, hermano espanhol

Pelayo Díaz Soto Most thankful for your comment, you understood the essence from it all. Salvador and his sister had the courage to do exactly the opposite that has been done until now. The simplicity and meeningfully lyric to a beautiful love song.
7:03 "I'm gonna sell this on ebay now" haha legend!
Nice catch bro!
Omg hahahhaHha
LMAO
Well done for finding what he said lol
Even if his sister was the one who performed for Portugal, they still would have won.
She will. She has a beautiful voice
True
i dont know about winning, but still top 5 for me, she is good like that such lovely voice :)
Her voice is amazing
“Isto estava tudo comprado na verdade” PAHAHAHAHAHA QUE ÍCONE 😭
Hilarious 😂
mestre mesmo,ri-me bem
“amar pelas dias” never forget 0:46
I never forgot
Wtf was days ?
Crying
came looking for this comment
@Rosa Reis the correction is kind but unnecessary. if you go to the timestamp you will see why they said that.
"Music is not fireworks, music is feeling."
- Salvador Sobral, 2017
I don't understand why people say he only won because of his heart conditions. In Portugal we only found out about it after we chose him to compete in Eurovision, he always tried to keep it a secret so it didn't affect the voting. Eventually it got out because you know, journalists, but he never even said what the disease is and he prefers not to talk about it, once again because of the voting (and because no one has anything to do with it).
Also I want to make sure you all know he's not either autistic or an ex-drug addict. He only did light drugs once during college (who didn't?). This is the way he is, and it's not fake. You can see his sister is already used to it, it's not new to her, he's just different, there are people like these and just because they're rare you don't get to call them autistic or fake. He has always been like this, since he participated in a singing competition here in Portugal back in 2009 (Ídolos). Just accept it, some people are different.
One more thing, please don't say he's arrogant. He was only saying what he believes in, why should you blame him for that? He's not bashing the other singers, he liked some of the other songs (such as Italy and Belgium). He's criticising the path Eurovision has taken over the years and how it's more about the show (fireworks, etc.) than the music itself. I think it's better to speak his mind than be fake and pretend he's eurovision's biggest fan and loves everything and everyone.
Have a nice day, and don't forget Eurovision was made to unite Europe, not break it
How long did it take you to write this
Well said !! 💚.
I didn't even realise he had a heart condition! I don't think that had an effect on his win whatsoever, the song was beautiful as were him and his sister's voices. Very happy with his win!
eva more Yes I didn't know even until on this comment. He won because of their beautiful performance fair & square.
Everyone that sais all that negaticve things has the slightest idea about music. He won because he deserved it! The song was amazing full of melody and feelings! Stavroula from Greece!
The fact they did this together as a duet seriously warmed my heart so much! Not my kinda song but this is so sweet 🌈

4:37 He was really happy for his sister and that makes ME happy
The duet with his sister is the most emotional moment in the Eurovision histrory!
How dare he, sing a song with meaningful lyrics, in his native language with no fireworks, or backup dancers or any special effects. Outrageous. He should have sung a bland pop song, had dozens of special effects all happening at the same time because that is clearly what people consider as real music nowadays. Seriously how dare he share his emotions trough a song, music is so the opposite of that...People are just so petty their favorite song didn't win that they can't recognize art when they hear it.
Daniela S OMG i love your sarcasm🤗🤗🤗
hahahaha;,)
To be honest I dislike Salvador Sobral, not the song, that guy.
He literally dishonested every other competitor by calling himself "the real music" and pretty much saying that they are "fireworks" if that quote was said by him when not winning he would be called douche but because he won it is a good quote... I really dislike him for that. There were many talented singers that put effort in their music and there are more emotions than just "love".
I don't dislike the song tho. But even his sister has stronger voice than he does... he did not deserve to win as he was not the best singer. The song was fine, romantic, slow, peaceful... I like that... but he did not deserve to win, if it was performed by his sister (she has really amazing voice) then I would not really mind this song winning.
Go to Ruskies they will love you. Salvador is the most humble down to the earth man.
Daniela S occidentlis karma had meaningful lyrics too they just werent depressig ahahahah
thing is - if you have a song with a touching story - anyone can win
This is the most deserved win ever. I have regained the belief that people know what music is.
So true! There is still hope!
E X A C T L Y
Lucas Totally deserved... They won by both votes, he is actually a talented singer and the song is actual music... On top of that I totally agree with what he said about comercial music...
Best Song and Music for 26 years in that Contest
since Peppino Di Capri "Comme è ddoce 'o mare"
Beautiful Music Won over Noise !
Indeed! While we live in a world with brainless teenagers acting like Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj are real artist... Yet there is still hope according to this winning song. Europe DOES have a taste. I didn't expect.
I love how music has no language. Here's the proof, I can't understand what he's saying and I don't know why my tears are coming out.
Congratulations Portugal !
Study the Portuguese Language its 4º in the World....
I feel and think the same - music alone, sometimes suffices. Brings the heart of the feelings... Thanks for understanding. You're a true music lover.
Jorge Lisboa I really hope I can study Portuguese but I've already 5 languages to speak. Like, French is my native language, and then there are english, italian, japanese and korean. If I manage to speak these 4 language perfectly, then i'm going to learn portuguese next :)
@@jorca54 Menos, ok? Que tem isso a ver? Se ouvires algo que te emocione em malaio vais aprender a língua? Ganha juízo moço, e agradece um comentário sentido.
@@annettebe4666 Don't worry, it's in portuguese, but the main language is universal, it came from the heart. You study portuguese, one day if you can. It's not easy, but it's beautiful. Meanwhile, keep hearing it as art. All the best!
Salvador is a free spirit. He always talks what comes to his mind with no filters. He did not criticized his adversaries but the whole music panorama. He went on a mission not to win this contest but to show that goodl music can be made with just feelings and a voice as a tool with minimum instrument support.. He did not thought he could win but Europe surprised all of us with a beautiful response to his call for love.
The right music, with the right man at the right time. That's it.
StarAD
Amen. well catch
So well put.
Yes its true, Portugal cheated... They sent a good song!
How does a comment with 600 likes not have a comment
@@aamyush excactly
That's true, we might have cheated, how did we dare to send real musicians with an amazing song to Eurovision for once? 🤔😄
and in portuguese
People actually think he won because of his heart desease? He didn't even mention he had a heart condition, I bet most people don't even know! Stop being petty!
The real eurovision essence! All countries should sing in their own languages and show the rest of the world a bit of their culture!
So you want Bulgarian grannies dancing with washboards in 11/8 time?
Good luck to them.
BUT - Bulgarian grannies dancing with washboards in 11/8 and singing in English "The universal constant is love" ... could mean a trip to Sofia next year!
This here is in my opinion when Eurovision reached its peak. This isn’t my favourite winner of all time, and there have been amazing moments before and since, but this just encapsulated everything this contest is about. Regardless of our personal preferences and biases, it felt like for just one moment, all of Europe could come together and celebrate the victory of this man bringing his sister’s humble song to the world stage and succeeding, despite everything we thought we knew about this contest. It brought his country a victory for the first time, and despite all the lights shining down and cheering him on, he chose to share the moment with a person he loved, and all of Europe and Australia quietened to listen. Thank you Portugal, you gave this contest its heart. 🇵🇹 ❤️ 🇬🇧
Eu não entendo por que essa música gerou tanta polêmica nos comentários ...
É simplesmente a música mais bonita da história da eurovisão. Saudações da Argentina
O seu português é perfeito, será que você é brasileiro?🇵🇹👍
@@joaoteixeira7410 não senhor! sou argentino...rsrsrs
Foi por causa do discurso no ínicio, sobre a "fast-food music". Muitos fans da eurovision acharam que ele estava a referir-se ao concurso por inteiro.. 🙄
@@mishinha Quase todo
😂😂😂😂😂 BOA!!!
Finally a young man has the courage to stand up for what a song should represent, the younger people of today badly needed a reality check, this brother and sister provided it, it's wonderful to see the respect they have for each other.
Congrats from Ireland.
Patrick Farrell you have let us down
Sam Browne, you are the only one here letting someones opinion down...
I wish the Irish to come up next year in their galic tongue :-) The irish song was strong and really dramatic (maybe too much?) and the german song was kindda plasticmusic - like many others. Regards from Germany
"I wish the Irish to come up next year in their galic tongue :-)"
That would be absolutely amazing!!
...and if you understand the comments of Salvador during the song....they are just suberme...
You came here after Eurovision Contest 2023 to remember the day this guy tried to broke the wheel.. “Music is not Fireworks”
Exactly like me, is refreshing 🙏
I,m glad this guy won the eurovision, because he deserved it! Means a lot of people actually still like music from the heart filled with emotion wich kinda surprises me in this generation. No special effects, no sexy dancers, no back vocals, no showing off and a loud beat. Just Him, his heart and voice. Like he said it at the end. Music is not fireworks but feeling. Well said. Bravo my friend! From Serbia.
Prava muzika se provukla u ovoj generaciji
Beli Vuk wow betrayal! Wow! Wow Serbia! Wow
He's total winner of ESC 2017, he won jury votes & televote... 758 is really high score
Congratulations Portugal! 🇵🇹
He won televoting via ESC fixing! There's no way a song of such intensity would win the viewers.
Alin Petrus
Many of my friends love it, so it's not impossible that he won televote...
Alin I personally voted 3 times for his song, because it's marvellous and I don't regret even one cent!
At least he didn't get pity votes like the Bulgarian singer only because he is half Russian(he can't even speak proper Bulgarian) and Russia was banned from the competition this year. And this is coming from a Bulgarian.
We've been here since 1964. For over the years we've been underrated and even at a certain point we wouldn't even try hard to win this. But somehow we did it. We won both jury and public vote and most incredible of all, we did it in our native language. Just Salvador Sobral and his incredible voice singing a masterpiece composed by his incredible sister and an incredible crowd making silence to hear him. Thank you Europe (and Australia) for making me so happy, I have no words right now. #Lisbon2018 will leave you all speechless, I promise.
Bruna M. Congratulations from Russia :)
Congatulationss,a great victory!
Big congrats from Germany, today the music won
We look forward to it! I'll try to come.. finally Portugal got it's moment!
To me this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard! Lots of love from Finland ❤️
The only Eurovision song that has lasted beyond the contest and is still in my playlist, incredible stuff. Greetings from Bulgaria.
I cried when Salvador and Luísa sang together.
The best score EVER by far! Do not forget that. The overwhelming majority of Europeans and Australians voted for this song. Received votes from all countries (televote), all!
30 times 12 points. 85% of the maximum score possible.
One of the best Eurovision winners ever. He is so much into this song and the lyrics are beautiful. His speech about fast food music was on point. You can dislike the song, but saying it's "boring" or "dull" just shows you are insensitive and that's probably because of mass media.
If you don't love this, you have a heart of stone.
My Winner 2018!😍😍😍😍
I have called for Portugal 10 times, Greetings from Germany!🇩🇪❤🇵🇹
So much feelings in this.
Congrats from BULGARIA.
You did very well, Portugal.
Your song was really good too, great contestants! Much regards from Portugal
Thank you Kphristov. Kind regards from a portuguese in Bulgaria (София).

A big hug from Lisbon, Portugal to Bulgaria
How is he so calm and collected?! I would be freaking out haha
Robert Bugeja he is probably medicated because he has a heart disease... He cant too excited ofc
If he gets excited he dies... So... :) He was probably heavy medicated because of his heart condition.
He probably already knew he was going to win.
Its his way of dealing with being nervous, he just pretends hes calm the more nervous he is if that makes any sense and ends up in this state of pseudo confidence
He has a heart condition, he was once in a singing contest in portugal that he had to abbandon because of the pressure and how it was detrimental to his health... he was likely high on medication during all of his performances (hende the facil expressions and random movements)
It's been a year. I still cry when i hear this VERY good and emotional song😭❤
Emilia same D;
People react badly to whatever song wins because their national pride is wounded. In tribal stuff vs. art, it's the art that always loses. But nothing can change the fact that Salvador and his lovely sister Luisa created a timeless piece of art :)
Only now I noticed that Salvador thanks arranger Luís Figueiredo at the end. And rightly so; apart from the beautiful melody, the perfect chords and lovely lyrics the arrangement is also a masterpiece; so subtle, absolutely superb (listen to the peak between 5:38 and 5:46 and the bridge from C7 over B7b5 to Bb at 5:54). I thank you too, Luís.
Thank you for mentioning and explaining this to anyone who doesn't know the musical language.
Yes, Dag Retsö, this arrangement is also a masterpiece! 👍
I don't understand all the people who are complaining. Don't they know what Eurovision is about? Didn't they watch the show and realized that it was about celebrating diversity? Thanks to artists like Salvador and his sister this show became a little diverse! It's easy to follow the mainstream, having the courage to be a little different and to show it on stage - THAT'S beauty! Those who complain about his looks or movements are just ugly!
Thank you, Jasper! I am glad you agree. Wish you all the best! :)
How is that diversity? Just because it's a song from 100 years ago? Or because it sounds like it has been played a million times in a portuguese restaurant?
OlisART perfect comment!!!
So a song "from 100 years ago" is not allowed to participate in a contest of the 21st century? Maybe you should just learn what diversity is about. It starts with respect! And I hope this song will be played in many restaurants all over Europe from now on!
Thank you, Sofia! Lots of love!
Over 50 years waiting for this, soooo deserved sorry boys.
Portugal, probably the most unsuccessful country in Eurovision history, suddenly produces one of the most emphatic winners ever. Eurovision fans live for moments like this :-)
Only my heart stopped when she started singing?
I'm in 2023 and i still think this is the most genuine winner of Eurovision
Portugal took a risk and look at how great it paid off! Yeah, other countries put on a great show, I mean Italy was amazing, but this was so great to watch too. Plus I don't speak the slightest amount of Portuguese, no idea what he was saying, but I was still emotionally there with him. And obviously millions of other people were too. That's why he deserved the win.
hello i am portuguese and, the song is about a love that never happened uncorresponded love , about someone, one person that loves so much, that can "love the other person" and also "for the other person"
I could understand every work he was saying, i am spanish and dont undersand portuguese, but can figure out what is it. IT WAS UNVELIEvABLE.
Portugal didn't want Eurovision - so they threw in a no-effort jazz ballad, in their own language, that nobody would like ...
They lost the gamble - europe and beyond loved the song, and Portugal is forced to host Eurovision this year.
Mai Nem A song with a meaning is a no-effort song ? Right mate .. I didn’t like the song much at first but it’s ok now, what really is important in music is the feelings that you pass to others. As a portuguese drummer ( musician ), I know how with an instrumment you can put all your feelings and messages through the art that is music
People don’t respect meaningful music, which is sad.
@Prince Henry The navigator I loved the song, it just seems really weird that they chose to send in a song that, on the surface, has NO CHANCE WHATSOEVER of winning :)
It won, lol. (thanks to people like me voting for it)
The look of dismay on the Portuguese Finance Minister's face must have been something to behold!
This song is best song ever!
He may not be the best winner Eurovision has ever seen, but his winning speech was the best speech Eurovision has ever seen! A statement standing for music against the rubbish we have today.Salvador is a legend!
He IS the best winner ever. Best song of the last 20 years.
when a song wins both jury and televote, then it obviously means is not the worst song ever in Eurovision, although it is not the type of music everyone would listen to, BUT you can tell it is quality music. I am so pleased and excited for Portugal. It was my favourite this year so i am really happy! and this is probably the best post-win performance ever in the Eurovision history. Hands down for the Sobral brothers
Ignacio Vicent exactly what i think
cosmo citizen I was thinking the same..
Ignacio Vicent In my opinion this is the second worst Eurovision edition since 2009...And this was the worst winner since 2000...
I don´t see the relation between what you say and what I said sorry, hehe
why do you think this is the worst winner? I would like to know your opinion
WE WELCOME YOU ALL IN PORTUGAL 2018
Pedro Lopes I need to say that I dont like your song but I am happy for you as a nation, because you never did very well!! Congratulations!
Pedro Lopes look forward to see how you will host it, congrats from Sweden!
Pedro Lopes im always ready!
stfu we will never see ESC again. Fucking false . YOU ROBBED!!!!!!
Hope you have better hosts than Ukraine had
I broke into tears, watching this performance. When I close my eyes, I see images of my childhood; how me and my sisters play around without any worry in the world, when we were so innocent and so closely knit. The music does bring out these memories.
A victory for Portugal, the portuguese language and all the world that speaks portuguese!!!!!
Portugal, Brasil, Angola, Moçambique, cabo verde, são Tomé, Guiné Bissau, Quiné Equatorial, Macau, Goa and Timor.
In a contest full of so many flashy and in-your-face songs, seeing one guy singing his heart out in a simple yet so powerful ballad win not only the jury vote but also the public vote really gives me faith that the world has not forgotten how to appreciate real music. Haters will keep hating and claim that the voting was rigged or that people only voted because he had a health condition, but for some ignorance is incurable. I am so happy to see this win and I hope this contest will take a turn for songs that have more meaning over loud and generic "fast food" songs that are about as deep as a children's swimming pool.
My faith in humanity has been restored, thank you Europe, see you all in Portugal next year.
Eurovision Person Man Dude iii
And then 2018 happend...
This is the first time since 2007 that a winner song is not in English
Jenny Penny completely not in english, last years winner was only partially in english
I love Salvador. I want to learn Portuguese, it's so sweet......Amar pelos dois
WOW CONGRATS 😱
lusia sobral sang so sweetly
i do not understand a word . i liked that song from the first time i heard it . But this version of Salvador singing with hiw sister is even more amazing .
I don't understand a word in Portuguese, nonetheless I am covered in goosebumps. This is the power of music !
I’m here after today’s winner... I missed this, I thought something gonna change after this huge song, but we still living in a world of disposable music, fast food music without any content...
I think this is the best and the most touching moment of the whole eurovision song contenst. GOOD JOB PORTUGAL YOU DESERVED IT.
I am on the bus full of people, with the headphones in the ears, listening to this and smiling, with eyes full of tears while listening to this. Everybody's thinking I am crazy. Crying all alone on the road. But! This is so beautiful. Why is it so hard to bring REAL music, REAL art and REAL emotions to this world?
They melted my heart, brother and sister singing together. He did not want attention, he is so humble that he shared the victory with his sister. Never seen that before. He really deserved to win, so I'm very happy for him. I also love that the winning song is in Portuguese. It was about time! Parabéns Portugal!!! :D Love from Spain
That's so amazing! No words, only tears in my eyes. Beautiful language, great performance! Luisa has really beautiful voice too, they could sing a duet together, that is awesome. Congratulations from Russia! Parabéns!
Spasibo ;)
I always cry when Louisa starts singing. So iconic ❤
hisname is salvador
GrzzlyDudud he's talking about Salvador's sister Luísa Sobral
luisa is the sister :)
Elle est merveIlleuse.
електрик oôm oo
Their mother must be so proud... I would be if I were their parents
Love love love this song. Im from the netherlands but i was cheering so hard for portugal. This is one of the few times i actually liked an eurovision song. You did so well portugal, props!!
jana jansen Bedankt! Grootjes van Portugal 😃
Listening to this song and reading these comments warm my heart.
Deserved winner. Congratulations portugal greetings from the Netherlands
We were watching this performance right at that moment near this stage, you can even see us with tears in our eyes. and honestly should say, that was one of the most magical moments of my life. Louisa and Salvador created masterpiece. I forgot the last time when music got me to feel this deep and this is incredible! 😍greetings from Kyiv.
were you the girl that put her head in the others shoulder?Or just turned your head to the side?
Beatriz Simões I'm the girl in the black polka dot top 😀
Really? Oh, you are so beautiful and the other girl too...you both made me on tears. Salvador has a unique voice and this song is really emotional! The Sobral siblings are lovely together!
Luna Plata oh thanks ❤️this song is a masterpiece, so glad that a lot of people felt the same way as we did 🙏🏻
Pedro Bessa you're right
This song made me learn Portuguese❤️🎶🇵🇹
That's great! Please lern the diference between "Amar pelos dois" (the correct name for the song) And " amar pelos dias" 😂
@@mishinha the one host got it wrong hahah
I am beyond ecstatic.
Firstly , Salvador made history for Portugal, a country which never did well in Eurovision, by also scoring the highest winner ever in the history of this magnificent event. I cannot believe that this is actually a reality, even after a week since the finals took place.
Can we just talk about the insane quality that this song is? Beautiful, romantic, a signal to stop in a mad speedy world , and definitely not the cheap pop that most people expect from Eurovision .
One of the best winners ever. Eurovision in Kyiv will be remember as a turn point in bringing music back.
It's so good to see the songwriter take centre stage. It is a song contest after all. Thank you, Salvador, for sharing your moment of glory with your talented sister xxx
i literally cried through the whole performance, this is pure magic
C'est tellement l'Europe ! Bravo
Luisa a une voix extraordinaire très très émouvante.
Portugal, pays du fado, de la saudade, de la nostalgie, de la mélancolie et de l'amour.
Nous t'aimons.
I don't understand a word of it, but I am in tears every time I listen to this. It's a beautiful, beautiful, precious song.
You can easily check it but remain this: "My heart can love for the both of us"
If one day someone asks about me
Say that I lived just to love you
Before you, I only existed
Tired and without a thing to offer
My dear, listen to my prayers
I ask you to come back, that you come back to love me
I know we can't love alone
Maybe little by little you can learn again
My dear, listen to my prayers
I ask you to come back, that you come back to love me
I know we can't love alone
Maybe little by little you can learn again
If your heart doesn't wish to do so
To feel the passion, If it doesn't want to suffer
Without making plans about what will happen
My Heart can love for the both of us
I still cry when I listen to this months after the contest .... Obrigado, Portugal, for having the guts to send a real song
This has to be the best and most timeless winner of Eurovision. 🎉🙏🏻🥰
Bravo! Bravo, Salvador and Luisa! The best Eurovision song ever! Ever!
the absolute best moment in eurovision history. nothing will ever beat it
What a moment when he shared the stage with the sister! Beautifull. Eurovision put a shorter vídeo with that moment of the two
Sobral family is one of the best things that ever happened to Eurovision. I just can't help but smile 4:36
So cute perfomace. One of the cutests winning perfomances ever.
I could watch this over and over and it would still feel so unreal. It was my fave but i did not think juries and less televoters , would appreciate this.
THE BEST MOMENT OF THIS YEAR ESC Luisa is so cute togethed with Salvador and that moment when sheet him to the microphone in the end omg 😍
Fabulous speech scolding the music industry. Congratulations!
"music is not fireworks, music is feeling" how right in so simple words c:
so so pretty! he mesmerised the audience
This was one of the best moments of the competition for me. Good on them for allowing Luisa onto the stage. Both amazing talents from Portugal. Good luck in 2018 Lisbon!!
So beautiful
So emotional
So romantic
CONGRATULATIONS PORTUGAL FOR YOUR 1st VICTORY - Salvador thank you for your amazing performance NO ONE CAN FORGET IT

Portugal and Bulgaria had the best songs, period. One of the few moments when I chose my favorites right. The big surprise was Moldova though. Good Job to our neighbor, Epic Sax Guy! xD
Damn, they were so cute together. Look how Salvador fanboying his sister when she was singing. That's adorable. Don't forget the effort that Luisa made when she wrote this song for her beloved brother. They were the perfect example for brother-sister relationship. Also, the facts that this song was the first time Portugal and jazz music won in Eurovision with the most amount of points make it one of the most deserved winner in modern Eurovision history.
Their voices together... It's so special.
Obrigado, obrigado, obrigado!!! Thank you Portugal, Salvador and Luísa. This contest needed this. An intimate song with feelings and words with a content. A song that doesn't need fireworks, djungeldrums, whips and whatever to transfer a genuine and true feeling. And finally, at last we don't have to listen to a thousand songs in a row, sung in an American accent accompanied by a thousand dancers, fireworks and waterdance, or what have you! Portugal, please give us back the true Eurovison with songs sung in languages spoken in Europe, and sungs that represent the musical tradition of each country.
Amo Portugal!
One of the best, if not THE BEST, winners ever! Congratulations!
While watching this I was smiling all the time and thinking that your parents must be so proud. You are different and that is what our world needs now. Thank you for amazing performances
That's a lovely thing to say.
I love this couple, love the brother praising his sister, love this performance!
Smashing Victory For Portugal both from juries & public!
Well Deserved Winner!
Thank you for the music Sobral's!
Cheers from Greece
Greece did well too, diserved better
One of the greatest moments in ESC-history. So beautiful to see sister composer and brother performer together on stage after the most deserved win in ESC-history.
I don't understand a single word they say, yet I cry every time I hear this song...
Probably the best Song ever played at ESC. Incredible performance!
