I don’t know what I expected, but it wasn’t bottom three oops. Anyway, thanks a lot for the people who voted for The Netherlands!
All straight into my playlist.
how...
Feels like a very random and unexpected winner to me. Especially if you realize that “Lathi” didn’t win, but this does. Nevertheless, congratulations for winning with a hard country!

Another strong final! The points were relatively close. The last place score vs. the first place score is definitely a smaller difference than in other editions.

WHAAAAA??? This did not deserve to place last at all. This is a good song. It's been a while since a non-AQ placed last, but it should not have gone to Brazil.
Turkmenistan will remain among the most iconic host nations in NNMC history. As for the song... it's an expected flop (shook it's not last), but I'm ready to move on.
Both decent songs, but they got outshone by a lot of other ones.
I don't think much of it tbh.
Lxandra had far better songs. This is okay.
For an electronic song, this is underwhelming. The violins, which are the highlight, aren't that great.
After Loreen, this is a step down.
A little underrated. I gave it my .
Another okay entry, but Croatia qualified.
BOTH UNDERRATED. France is my and Taiwan my .
Thought it would do better, but this is fine.
A banger. I gave it , but seeing the big picture, this is where I expected it to place.
It's okay.
Admittedly, this is a great song. Enough for me to give it .
Good songs. Good placings. No complaints here.

A pleasant surprise of a result. Well done!
Another really good result for San Marino. Happy for this, too.
It's nice. Deserves to place in the top 10.
After all the hype, I thought this would be in the top 3. I even gave it . Still one of New Zealand's best results though.
MY ! I wish it had won. Such an intoxicating banger.
Another good song. It deserves its Top 5 placement. Poland is having a great year so far. Keep it up!
Definitely one of the contenders. My . I thought it would place in the Top 3, but 4th is still great.

Sneaking your way into the Top 3 all thanks to the last vote! I don't mind it. It's decent. Congratulations!

Way to vote yourself out of winning. Still, this is one of the best German entries, and I gave it . 2nd place is no joke. Congratulations!

This is the most random NNMC winner in a long time (or maybe ever). I genuinely didn't see this as a winning song (the relatively low winning score of 188 justifies this a bit), but enough people loved it, so it's a deserved win. To be fair, it did win its semi, so I kinda saw it coming, but even in the semis, I was shocked to see it win. Admittedly, I do think it's a good song that I gave to. I still strongly believe that Indonesia should've won with Lathi last year, so I see this win as avenging the injustice against Lathi. Indonesia has come close to winning in the past, so it looks like it finally paid off. Congratulations, superjonno! Philippines won't have to travel far next month.

Well, 26th isn't result which I waited, but my qualification already was a good result, so thanks to everyone who voted for Argentina, especially to for their 12 points!
Talking about other countries, it's already second edition in a row with "I didn't expect that to win" winner) Nonetheless, congratulations to for win and to and for placing in top 3)
About other things, I think that REALLY shouldn't have finish last.

I didn't expect that Indonesia would win for the first time with this song, my first victory since joining this forum.

Thank you to all who voted for Indonesia, and congratulations to StarBe who has succeeded in becoming Champion at NNMC # 55

See you in Jakarta or Bali?

4th in the semi and 27th in the final? K bye. But ngl I expected to place a bit higher. Thanks for making me qualify at least!

great winner. This is not Lathi but still a bop. Well done
this is an okay song
yasss banger
OVERRATED AF. Please Iraq submit a song I don’t want to see this AQ because of Marina

robed too but lowkey expected

thank you for 18th place (for the third time this year lmao) i wasn't a huge fan of this song so didn't expect too much - it's a bit overrated i think but see you next time in
