8 years later listening to this masterpiece and still considering one of the biggest crimes in Eurovision. I appreciate so much the authenticity of the song . The portugese language , the fado elements in the song , the powerful lyrics... This song won my heart since day 1 ! Muito Obrigado Portugal. Saludos de Albania
3 years later and I still think this was so unfair. Vida Minha was a masterpiece and it was amazingly delivered. I'm so sorry Potugal, Eurovision is always so hard on you!
LadyLalie 😉... 6 years later and I’m still listening to this AMAZING entry from Portugal - the best ever from your country 🇵🇹 🎼👌... Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
It's 2021 and i'm still don't understsnd how this beatiful song can't qualified..... i mean the Melody is so beatiful and her Voice too... when i saw it live i got goosebumps everywhere.... i just don't understand why.... this Song was for me in the Top 5
Such a beautiful and emotional performance ❤ Even if I don't like Amar Pelos Dios, they deserved that victory, after sending many songs in their mother languege. Well done
Isto sim é ser português! Que poema, que voz, que canção! A saudade de um amor fica sempre bem nos nossos fados! Simplesmente, tenho orgulho em ser português com esta representação excelente da Filipa Sousa e do seu grupo que deram o melhor para dignificar Portugal
No, the most underrated are others. Switzerland '17,'15,18 N.Macedonia every year 😂, BiH '16, San Marino '13, Greece '19, Norway '16, Lithuania '19 ecc...
Filipa,querida foste es e seras ,sempre maravilhosa ,parabens a ti e a todos aqueles que te acompanham ,nesta tao bonita balada ,que ,tanto adoro ouvir.
I WANT HER PERFORMING THIS SONG IN LISBON 2018!!!!! I also want to see Vania Fernandes with Senhora Do Mar, that could be a way to say to them THANK YOU for making such beautiful and UNDERRATED performances!
I am sure, that 100% of the Portuguese population wouldn't have thought that they gonna win the contest in the following years! :) p.s It is a really amazing and beautiful song!
i'm Portuguese and love English language but i think the point of eurovision is that every country should bring a piece of its own culture and if everyone sings in english it's just nonsense
That's the point, you spoke wise words. And I'm glad that Portugal keeps doing so :) I always wait for the Portuguese entry because I know it will be amazing! Keep on the good work, please continue to bring CULTURE to the Eurovision! Love from Italy, dear Atlantic cousins of ours :)
No problem, sometimes it happens! But it's far more honourable to fail with your means (Portuguese) than with others' means (English!) Love from Italy :)
Hands down, this is better than many of the songs in the Top10! 1. Iceland 2. FYR Macedonia 3. Estonia 4. Portugal 5. Finland 6. Serbia 7. Bosnia & Herzegovina Sweden? Russia? Azerbaijan? Not even close.
Filipa, please do not be discouraged!A lot of people support you and they really appreciate the way you sing with a lot of soul.In my opinion you are a winner.
This song has a very warm melody. In my top 10, from Turkey. My other Azeri friends love this song too. Very good song for Turkish/Azeri taste. And in the end, at 2:57, "ÇOX SAĞ OL"
Poor Portugal, Europe underrated you again... You always send masterpieces to Eurovision and what do you get? No wonder that you're the only one country in Western Europe that had never won Eurovision, because you're always underestimated... But I love such kind of songs, and I hope that someday Europe will finally pay ANY attention to your wonderful entries! Best regards from Russia! :)
Португалия,вы лучшие! Песня трогает до глубины души! Слезы на глазах,когда ее слушаю! Готова слушать и слушать! Музыка отличная,голос великолепный! Девочки красавицы! К сожалению,не знаю слов,но это не важно и так все понятно! Вы по праву должны быть первыми! Я с России, мы с мужем болели за вас!
Sim, sim o Brasil é sem dúvida alguma o melhor país do Mundo com as melhores músicas, compositores e cantores.....e até o Fado é vossa criação!!! loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
I've voted for Portugal... not knowing what she was singing, but the melody.... the appealing voice of her got me somehow. I was very sad, when Portugal didnt even pass the semi-final. That was a big shame.... one of the best songst of 2012. Greetings to Portugal and best wishes to the people for the hard way to come... :(
Meu coração luso, se engrandece quando ouço nossa lingua cantada, a lingua do amor a lingua da luz dos poetas. Há que insistir quando sabemos que estamos certos, um dia será nosso e a justiça se ha-de repor - Lindo, o quanto me orgulho de ser filho desta NAÇÃO,
Portugal had one of the best songs this year. Really autentic, pure and full of feelings. I'm glad countries like this didn't sell themselves and send commercial pop songs in English (like Sweden, every year) just for the sake of scoring better. Greetings from Argentina! :)
Europa sendo Europa. Se acham os caras mas é incrível como Portugal todo ano manda obras primas e nem se classificam para as finais. Vergonhoso que apenas ganharam uma vez. Pelo menos umas 7 vezes deveriam estar no top 3. Povinho chato esse europeu. Abraços do Brasil
This is definitely one of the most underrated songs in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest. "Vida Minha" has such a captivating melody. The lyrics are beautifully performed by the sweet and warm voice of Filipa Sousa, who did an amazing job on stage. But I must say, the choir going from one side to the other was not a good idea. In fact, I think the choir shouldn't have been on stage. Instead, two men playing accordion and Portuguese guitar would have been visually more enjoyable. Still, Portugal should have qualified for the final.
Oh my gosh....I looooove so much your language and songs which have the portuguese....and this fado is soooo perfect....I CAN'T UNDERSTAND EUROPE...are you DEAF?????It's a masterpiece!!!!Keep sending your beautiful language and i will keep loving you more!!!GREETINGS FROM GREECE
Absolutely loved this song, can't believe uz didn't do better. Love the voices, song, language, makes me wanna learn portuguese. Well done from New Zealand xox
I am sooooo thankful to Portugal for this beautiful song!!! The performance was great and I couldn't notice the difference between the studio and the live version, which obviously shows how good she sings actually. I am sad she didn't pass to the final! Greetings from Serbia and I hope you will be in the 2013 final in Belgrade with another amazing song such as this one!
Portugal you are brilliant this year! The best song since 'Senhora do mar'! I'm sure it was very very close to entering the Final, and I'm so sorry that it didn't make it. Keep it up and better luck next year!
This was my favorite last year. Simply amazing, great melody and great vocals. Greets from Croatia, btw. music was composed by Croatian Andrej Babić :-)
It's a shame and a lack of consideration on the part of Eurovision for provision of Portugal when it comes to cut the video of Felipa de Souza with the theme "my life" is unfortunate and deserved to have passed the final
Adorei a musica, é mesmo assim portugal, o que importa é estar lá , dar a cara, tentar e a cantar no nosso IDIOMA que... só por isso e por representarem o nosso País já e´um Orgulho tão de parabéns !! Força estamos Juntos** (mesmo existindo gentinha triste que nos tente deitar a baixo.. o pior e' existir tantos com mentalidades tão atrasadas e infelizes por esse mundo fora .)
A minha terrinha como voçe diz, é linda e embora pequena e mesmo estando atravessar uma crise e' uma terrinha linda, com praia, Sol, Neve, Chuva, Rio, Cascatas,Paisagens lindas, Ar puro, Sítios Históricos Magníficos, Musica, Festa, FADO que coitadinho voçe não tem categoria suficiente para compreender o que é...

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR COMENTS! TO READ THIS IS MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN A RESULT! WE ARE REALLY PROUD BECAUSE WE DID OUR BEST! :)
We can see this song is underrated because the artist's comment is underrated already.
You were amazing there
You shoud be! You are wonderful!
👏👏
Desde España he de decirte que tú canción es una joya de ese año y que injustamente no pasó a la final porque me parece maravillosa.
Una y otra vez no pararía de escucharla.

I appreciate so much the authenticity of the song . The portugese language , the fado elements in the song , the powerful lyrics...
This song won my heart since day 1 !
Muito Obrigado Portugal.
Saludos de Albania
Saludos is Spanish...
It's Saudações...
But thank you very much... Albania was robbed this year btw (2023)
This has to be one of the most underrated Eurovision entries of all time. I love it! Such a good ballad!
I was lucky enough to meet Filipa when on holiday to Portugal. She was an amazing person a true angel and the highlight to my visit.
One of the best Entry in Eurovision 2012, we love u! fr Spain. Portugal should be in top 10.
3 years later and I still think this was so unfair. Vida Minha was a masterpiece and it was amazingly delivered. I'm so sorry Potugal, Eurovision is always so hard on you!
ZAS en toda la boca, jaja
They finally won! :D:D:D
This year once again unfair...
LadyLalie 😉... 6 years later and I’m still listening to this AMAZING entry from Portugal - the best ever from your country 🇵🇹 🎼👌... Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰

(With the only Portuguese song I don't like)

Dois! Not Dios... ergghhh
This is so underrated and so Portuguese.Portugal,obrigado por esta maravilhosa canção!!
Isto sim é ser português!
Que poema, que voz, que canção! A saudade de um amor fica sempre bem nos nossos fados!
Simplesmente, tenho orgulho em ser português com esta representação excelente da Filipa Sousa e do seu grupo que deram o melhor para dignificar Portugal
I don't usually like these slow Portuguese songs they usually send, but this and 2008 are phenomenal. Well done, Portugal, hope you qualify this year.
Actually they are both composed by the same author, similar melodies
i completely agree, the only slow Portuguese songs i like are 2008, 2012, 2018 and 2022
Omg I sang with her when I was on holidays in Portugal! I had no clue!
For me the best Portguese entry in whole eurovision. LOVE IT!
Efsane şarkı. Tam Türk damak tadına göre. Sıcak bir melodisi var.
Most underrated Eurovision song ever?
I stopped listening to Eurovision for some years and just come back and heard this. You are completely right...
@@vp2794 It should be amongst the Top 10
No, the most underrated are others. Switzerland '17,'15,18 N.Macedonia every year 😂, BiH '16, San Marino '13, Greece '19, Norway '16, Lithuania '19 ecc...
@@paccaleo YES N.Macedonia😭(and the others)im from Portugal 🇵🇹💛
Yes, Filipa Sousa and Carlos Mendes my best Portuguese Eurovision participants. Should've qualified/won the contest, 12 points from 🇦🇺🤗😘
Such a beautiful song...
Como no ha podido pasar esta obra de arte, canta muy bien y una gran actuación para mi. Cada vez más amañado está todo.
portugal sending art as always
Maravillosa cancion la de ese año. Una injusticia no la clasificaron.
De lo mejor que ha llevado PORTUGAL al festival.
Saludos desde ESPAÑA
The best song that ever came from this magical country, love of mine, Portugal!!!❤️
Прекрасная песня!😍Очень красивая! С любовью из России❤
Filipa,querida foste es e seras ,sempre maravilhosa ,parabens a ti e a todos aqueles que te acompanham ,nesta tao bonita balada ,que ,tanto adoro ouvir.

Sou espanhol, amo Portugal para sempre ;)
Gracias Hermano..
Una canción preciosa en una lengua bellísima. Aupa Portugal!!!!
MASTERPIECE😍😍😍😍
I am sure, that 100% of the Portuguese population wouldn't have thought that they gonna win the contest in the following years! :)
p.s It is a really amazing and beautiful song!
EurovisionHUN this is the best entry from Portugal for me 💚 not sobral's meowing
This aged well
she was best of best !
YOU GUYS ARE BACK IN 2014!!!!!! So happy! :D
Maikel Schram portugal 2018😊
Honestly, I can't believe Malta, Ukraine, Norway and Turkey qualified ahead of this masterpiece. I always love Portugal's entries (except for 2011).
2011 portugal atravessava uma grave crise económica! A canção enviada para a eurovisao foi um protesto.
i'm Portuguese and love English language but i think the point of eurovision is that every country should bring a piece of its own culture and if everyone sings in english it's just nonsense
That's the point, you spoke wise words. And I'm glad that Portugal keeps doing so :) I always wait for the Portuguese entry because I know it will be amazing! Keep on the good work, please continue to bring CULTURE to the Eurovision!
Love from Italy, dear Atlantic cousins of ours :)
iodalach93 well..this year it sucks xD
but anyway it was nice talking to you :)
Love from Portugal :P
No problem, sometimes it happens! But it's far more honourable to fail with your means (Portuguese) than with others' means (English!)
Love from Italy :)
True story :D
Teresa Dias, concordo plenamente, aqueles 3 minutos são nossos, são Portugal, temos uma lingua fantástica, para quê tornarmo-nos vulgares? :P
She deserved Top 10. My opinion
So underrated... amazing song from 🇵🇹
This is actually pretty good
We are! Thanks :) We also love her, and Portugal did very well this year. We finally sang something close to fado !
Hands down, this is better than many of the songs in the Top10!
1. Iceland
2. FYR Macedonia
3. Estonia
4. Portugal
5. Finland
6. Serbia
7. Bosnia & Herzegovina
Sweden? Russia? Azerbaijan? Not even close.
Filipa, please do not be discouraged!A lot of people support you and they really appreciate the way you sing with a lot of soul.In my opinion you are a winner.
Very nice a ballad.
Epic vibes... I got chills from this song.
This song has a very warm melody. In my top 10, from Turkey. My other Azeri friends love this song too. Very good song for Turkish/Azeri taste. And in the end, at 2:57, "ÇOX SAĞ OL"
I still love this song bravo Filipa ❤️
Filipa was robbed. :( But happy to see Portugal back in the game.
Me encanta esta canción, es una pena que no los valoren como deben
Still in my top 3 😍
ADORO ESTA CANÇAO, MUSICA, VOZ, INTERPRETAÇAO, LETRA !
That was so much better then the one that Portugal sent the previous year in 2011.
It was a troll, the portuguese station hated that so much that in 2012 the songs were not voted by the peoppe
it was the people response to the government austerity measures
The 2011 song is my winner of that year 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
Uma das minhas favoritas

How did this masterpiece not qualify for the final?
That was simply, brilliant.

Bellísima canción. Injustamente tratada en favor de otros horrores como Turquía o Lituania.
Brava Filipa!.
♥️
I really like it :)
I was in Portugal last week, such a shame no one knows her :( Actually this song was the reason why I wanted to learn Portuguese!

I still love this
I am sooooo thankful to Portugal for this beautiful song!!!
The performance was great and I couldn't notice the difference between the studio and the live version, which obviously shows how good she sings actually.
I am sad she didn't pass to the final!
Greetings from Serbia and I hope you will be in the 2013 final in Belgrade with another amazing song such as this one!
Bela canção e bela intérprete. Não ganhou porque ainda não tinha chegado a hora...
I can imagine this in Serbian easily
I love you Portugal!!!!
Portugal you are brilliant this year! The best song since 'Senhora do mar'! I'm sure it was very very close to entering the Final, and I'm so sorry that it didn't make it. Keep it up and better luck next year!
Spain loves Filipa! Amazing and powerfull performance!
This was my favorite last year. Simply amazing, great melody and great vocals. Greets from Croatia, btw. music was composed by Croatian Andrej Babić :-)
