Sour Candy

#54 (+11) in the UK mids

And Delta Goodrem is 41, so she's not exactly representing "the youth" either.

The bolded is the most important part. Sanremo is probably one of the, if not THE most competitive music contest in the world (after the ESC grand final) so winning that is a huge feat itself. Personally, I think the staging was fantastic! They did classic ballet there, the dancers were amazing and there was a clear storyline. Also, italo disco is pretty popular subgenre in Europe. I have been to Italo theme parties in my home town. Yes, the sound is nostalgic but it's the overall vibe that people love.

What RobBot said, and also to get even ONE point from the televote, the song needs to be top ten most voted in a country. UK was 15th at best (AUS) so clearly people either disliked it or felt very indifferent towards it.

RMI must be doing very well on Amazon if it's #2 today.

Lol a minor diplomatic crisis there (I was baffled too considering how good Choke Me is)

I think the GH is a proper release if you can buy it in a physical format. Otherwise it's just old music files put in order under a title.

Drake is still #1 on AM, will definitely be #2 at least as the gap between RMI and others is huge.

Wow Drake dropped a lot then

Yay at Bangaranga! A great winner

The song wasn't good enough.. still don't recall a thing about it after the semi and final and couple of Spotify listens. The performance was great.

The song is good? LMAO It was the clear bottom 3 from the moment I heard it for the first time.

I think Sweden lacks the BOP factor that made Keiino among others so iconic. A bit like Tooji back in the day.

Romania is one of my faves! Sublime song!

Loved the old vibes from Italy, classy!

How is Poland in the final

Shame Delta's song is very average

Too shaky vocals from Denmark sadly

Her album still went platinum so it was popular. To even get some streams, there must be 3 remotely big hits.

I'd say anything but top 10 is a bit disappointing for Gracie considering all the push she has had (plus how big his previous era was - even the album went platinum so it wasn't just that one hit single).

Poor Applause... feels like it's always been underrated by her fans.
