Portugal deserves a 2nd victory in Eurovision Song Contest
It does not matter if she goes to the final or not. She makes us proud. Its an amazing song
yes this is soo true, not only is the song beautiful, the whole visual is perfectly in harmony. such a joy to watch. thank you!!! i always wonder about competitions.... i mean the trees in the forest are different and each its own amazing.
I’m so proud and pleased with it.... I could care less if it goes far in the competition.
Of course if it’s received well... even better!!!
I cannot imagine a world where this does not place top 5. Seriously it’s a remarkable piece of art!! It’s battling Norway right now for my number 1 spot. It’s just stunning to look at, to listen to, to experience. Portugal should be SO PROUD! I get emotional when I watch it
Thanks for the feedback, you were so kind! I really don't mind if we don't qualify, we are sending authenticity and quality and that makes me so proud already! 😍Also Iolanda is amazing!
Once Salvador proved to the world in one of the biggest mass landslides in ESC history that the Saudade/Melancolia of Portugal is singular and not to be disrespected. Claudia 2018 got really screwed over, on a beautiful song. I'm not Portuguese int eh slightest, but as someone who lived in Napoli for 4 years I absolute connect with the spirit of Portugal.. As a former Navy man I hope to get to Lisbon someday and check out all the massive history of the great navigators.
Yes, everyone likes to be successful and make it to the big show, but for Portugal it is far more important to hold firmly to your special character.
I mean I know I m not the only Spanish speaker who bothered to go learn some of the lyrics to Ai Coracao, so we could sing along with Mimicat! LOL
Honestly I think this is the most underrated song this year. It is so freaking good the whole performance. It is a qualifier for sure. I see a lot of people being worried but it’s gonna stand out for sure. I just think people is worried because it is Portugal and not the song itself, however Portugal already showed it has amazing capabilities to be a strong contestant and I believe in a Top10 in the final❤
Thanks. Portugal being Portugal. Proud of our roots, culture and language. Go Portugal!
A masterpiece from Portugal! Great song and message! Good luck for Eurovision. ❤
The scream ( o grito) at the end means she freed herself from her demons. Her demons were representes by the dancers
Proud of our roots, culture and language. Go Portugal!
Alma Portuguesa ❤ Beijos from Serbia
To me, the two great songs in ESC 2024: the Portuguese one and the Serbian one...
This one is better than a few from the first semi, it is on the second half and a real peace of REAL music, not a joke one.
Lindo ❤️ lindo ❤️
Parabéns Iolanda e muita sorte na Eurovisão 🍀🍀
Thank you, we are so proud to send her 🤗🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 chills 🤯
votem Portugal
It’s just perfect . Simple as that .
Portugal ❤❤❤
Iolanda ❤❤❤
Grito ❤❤❤
Divine❤❤❤soo beautiful ❤❤❤goo Portugal ❤❤
Thank you for your lovely comment 😍 The song is about mental struggles and fighting to overcome them on you own - Self empowerment. I get that is not for everyone and it might be thought to get the attention on the televote. She is on the 2nd half of the 1st semi final what is a difficult one. But if she gets to the Final I believe that she will get the love and attention of the juries. Explaining the choreography, the dancers are/represent the flames and her demons and at the end she makes them disappear with her scream overcoming the struggle . Grito = scream . The white is to represent the flames, the pure white light the that emanates from the soft candle flames. Love from a Portuguese living in the Midlands UK ❤❤❤
She's amazing ❤
Loved your reaction !! ❤️❤️
This is for sure a Masterpiece !! Outstanding
Iolanda - Portugal ❤🇵🇹
BEST SONG of the Festival "Iolanda - 'Grito' (Scream)"- MY Analysis and English Lyrics (adaptation)
ANALYSIS:
"Grito", presents a compelling narrative of resilience, transformation, and self-empowerment. The song uses the metaphor of fire to symbolize the undying spirit of the protagonist, emphasizing themes of endurance, healing, and self-realization.
Themes like:
Vulnerability and Surrender: (sense of awareness and sensitivity, possibly hinting at the anticipation of change or the buildup of emotional energy. Speaks to letting go of control, a leap of faith into the unknown. This surrender isn't about giving up but about embracing the process of transformation).
Liberation: "I want to let go of what left me hurt" is a clear desire to release past pains and burdens. This act of letting go is necessary for healing and moving forward.
Renewal: for instance in asking the "mother star to make the day rise again" symbolizes a plea for rebirth, a fresh start, and the hope that comes with a new day.
Transformation: "I transformed every verse of me" indicates profound personal growth and change. The individual is not the same as before; She has evolved through her experiences.
Persistence: The repeated phrase "It still burns" emphasizes ongoing struggle and resilience. Despite challenges, her spirit and determination remain unquenched.
Self-assertion: "Today I want to prove myself / That I can be whatever I want" reflects a strong sense of self-belief and ambition. She is determined to define her own identity and future.
Forgiveness: "Forgive anyone who wanted to see me suffer" shows maturity and emotional liberation. Forgiveness is presented as a step towards healing and empowerment.
Resilience: The imagery of being a "flame that still burns" throughout the song symbolizes resilience in the face of adversity. She continues to shine and endure, regardless of past pains and challenges.
Self-empowerment: The journey from vulnerability to strength, from darkness to light, encapsulates the theme of self-empowerment. She actively transforms her pain into power, asserting control over her destiny.
Healing and Growth: The song portrays healing as an active and dynamic process. It's about moving through pain, embracing change, and growing stronger in the process.
Iolanda's 'Grito' (Scream), is a powerful anthem of perseverance, self-discovery, and empowerment. It encourages listeners to embrace their vulnerabilities, let go of the past, and ignite their inner strength to face the future with courage and hope.
LYRICS
Iolanda - "Grito" (Scream)
[Verse 1]
I heard, (I) felt, the body charging
We continued like that, one and another, one and another, one and another
I'm free falling, I'll let you know when I get there
I surrender here, little by little
[Pre-Chorus]
Long strides, chained in the (race) start
I want to let go of what left me hurt
I ask the mother star to make the day rise again
[Chorus]
(It still [Ainda] burns [Arde]) I transformed every verse of me (It still burns)
And surrender to the courage that still burns, still burns
Hit the light on your chest and opens it
I am a flame that still burns, still burns, still burns
[Verse 2]
Today I want to prove myself
That I can be whatever I want (Whatever I want)
Bring together those who love me at a table
Forgive anyone who wanted to see me suffer
They don't fool me (No, no)
I'm every size (I am)
I still remember when I was little
(I was) the one who dreamed first
[Pre-Chorus]
Long strides, chained in the (race) start
I want to let go of what left me hurt
And I ask the mother star to make the day rise again
[Chorus]
(It still burns) I transformed every verse of me (It still burns)
And surrender to the courage that still burns, still burns
Hit the light on your chest and open it
I am a flame that still burns, still burns, still burns
I am a flame that still burns, still burns
I am a flame that still burns, still burns
Burn, burn, burn
I transformed every verse of me
And surrender to the courage that still burns, still burns
Hit the light on your chest and open it
I am a flame that still burns, still burns, still burns
Let it be just like it is!!! The greatest! 🇵🇹😍💪🏼😎
Love you Men,,❤❤❤❤🎉 love Portugal 12
MY TOP 5❤️
I will not be surprised if Portugal wins this year. This is a masterpiece.
I am in love with a lot of entries this year, but the majority sounds too generic.. NO OFFENCE!
Found that this one has soul, and is she starting accapela??? On Eurovision? If it goes well is a winner!!!
Obrigado
WINNER!!!❤
👏👏👏👏👏🌟
Thanks you very much ❤😊
I agree with you. It's a wonderful song . In fact it is too good for eurovision televote. We send a song that gonna be like given pearls to pigs! Just like that. ESC is full of noise, bad music and piruets ,fire works and mambo jambo's on stage!
Netherland this years entry, for example, is One of the baddest songs i ever heard in this contest. And, in internet is Taken always the top 3 on the public choice for victory!
😒🙄

great reaction! when you upload Israel's entry reaction?
Revamping??????? Gosh…
Can you react to Israel's Eurovision song?
NO
Hello!! I'm Portuguese. The song is boring, it has no strength, only melancholy. The only thing that stands out is the message and the dancers. Regrettably, it does not grow at any time nor does it surprise.
Pena que seja portuguesa e não defenda a música portuguesa e não saiba comentar nem apreciar a música, a voz, a mensagem, o staging, o instrumental etc. Para si a Eurovisao, como para a maioria da Europa, é dance music e hip hop com mta produção €€ e mtos efeitos de luzes...devia estar calada/o, ao em vez de fazer uma má crítica a música do "seu" suposto país
@@user-fk8mz1nf2g Você deve ser parva (ou parvo). Devia calar-se se não sabe respeitar a opinião dos outros, esta gente anda doente! ou então deve ser excesso de álcool. Mas sabe por acaso os meus gostos musicais para dizer o que diz? E ainda por cima nem sabe inglês pois até elogiei a mensagem e os bailarinos. Ficou ofendidinha (o)? Deixo aqui um "vai chatear o Camões!" só para provar que até aprecio o que é português! F@da.sE não há paciência!
