Suzy - Quero ser tua (Portugal 2014)

[VoR]

Seventh in the televote but cruelly dumped on account of being placed DEAD LAST by the reliably fun-averse juries. BASTARDS!



Her confused facial expression at 2.25 has lived rent free in my head since 2014.

HOT

One of my most treasured Eurovision memories is of Euroclub Stockholm 2016 when Suzy led a conga line across the dancefloor while belting this out.

Ok but very repetitive. Not a patch on national finalist “Canta Por Mim”

 

[VoR]

God, remember the days when the Portuguese final came down to QUERO SER TUA vs CANTA POR MIM?

What a time to be alive!

 

[auretz]

Although I’ve since realised Canta Por Mim was 2010 blame the cheap red I’ve been drinking. 2014 was the rehash “Mea Culpa” (which I still love)

 

[Penelope]

What a load of THRILLING TAT (this, Canta por mimsy, and Mea culpa!)

 

[Jacques]

I didn't pay this much attention until the Lisbon contest, but now I rightfully recognise it as the one time Portugal were good in the 2010's.

This followed by Ha Um Mar Que Nos Separa was such a cruelly misleading double whammy of excellence from the most RELENTLESSLY FUCKING DISMAL country in the contest.
