    Sheldon, you mean more than the world to me and if I could want you to hear anything from me it would be that I needed/need you more than anything. You completely changed my life and I can’t even begin to explain it. But I saw this one interview today of you where the guy was like “you know so many people look up to you” and “you’ve changed so many peoples lives” and whatnot and when you responded you sounded like you didn’t seem so sure (of course I don’t know exactly and I’m so so sorry if I offend you) and even if you did believe what he said I still want to say this, you have changed everything in me, wether that is what I want my goals to be or if it’s in what I wear or how I view the world. And with the whole thing in the interview I want you to know that you are so loved by your fans. I can imagine it’s hard to sometimes but when I first came across you I just…I don’t know. It’s hard to explain but there is something about you that no one else has, and you have done so many things that I could have never even thought of. I don’t come from much of an outgoing community so when I saw you I was like “who is this beautiful person” and “I need him to be my best friend” and “he is so perfect”. And of course it’s been almost 2 years since I came across you but I still get a magical feeling of hope when I hear what you sing or say. And it feels like home when I hear you. Like that warm fuzzy feeling yk. And I would like to thank you for everything if I ever come close to a conversation with you. I wish the best of the best for Eurovision and safe travels! You always have been my winner tho 💅✨

    OMG!!!!!! Greetings from Spain!! I never knew of you before Eurovision, I was mesmerized by your performance had to find you here. I could not breathe nor move while you were singing. You have a new fan forever!!! I watched all your videos and your story and let me tell you something, I dont know if you are doing all those competitions because you are looking for aproval or a confirmation of how talented you are. Well you dont need those! your are perfect just the way you are , you deserve to be just as you are and as you wish and no amount of external comments can change that. You were one of the best at Eurovision but of course they can vote you to win cuz is a europe contest and you guys are on the other side of the world :) Can´t wait to hear what you coming up with next!!!! Much love!!!!

    Sheldon is a phenomenal talent. I wish when he sang his own song live he’d do the bridge like it is in the recording- the melody is incredibly catchy in the recording but it gets lost live. I feel like people would appreciate the song so much more if he maintained the melody, because it’s so simple that it gets lost behind too many vocal tricks
