    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.

      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

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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. 🇵🇹 ❤️ 🇬🇧

      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.

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.

    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?

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!

    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.

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.

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.

      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.

    WHAT A WOMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!......when women hand out WOMAN OF THE YEAR awards this coming year for inspirational women....this young lady should sweep the board.

    Beautiful song, beautiful performance. This is my favourite Eurovision entry ever. It puts me in such a trance. For a few minutes, it makes me feel like everything will be absolutely fine. Love from Australia!

    I watch Eurovision since i was 15. Till now Salvador is my favourite winner. Each time i listen to this song i get goosebumbs. I don't know but he's just a hypnotists with his voice. Great great artist.
