Only just realised this is the same girl who was on britians got talent shes only 15/16 now! Trust me, this girl CAN SING! go check her out. I Love this song! Im gutted shes not representing us :(
Ciao asanda sono italiano e di Venezia mi piace molto come canti il live cantando e ballando hip pop non è facile manca il fiato ma tu hai saputo tenete il palco brava piccola
She should have won. For once I just really wanted the UK to send a proper banger. If she won, she could have used more backing vocalist and this would have been top 10. I don't think that will happen with Surie, but good luck anyways.
Totally agree with u but those voters out there don't get it, naturally. Her voice is powerful but she must work hard but gurl just explain me that jumpsuit pleasee !!
She must not made that decision but anyway she did and lost. Its a total package like lights, dancers, that fuckin costumes ( I hated that jumpsuit so bad), voice, dance moves, song. Her lights was quite good, dancers were ok too, costume !!!!!!!!, her voice her live vocals were pretty bad unfortunately, dance wasn't so hit it was basic moves, but the song was perfect. Btw are u Turkish ?
Asanda ...I ve been follow u since 2001 till now.....U ar amazing girl! Im proud of u. My daughter love u so much cant let a day pass without watching ur videos.....
What an incredible performance! Captivating from the beginning and literally the only song on that night that didn't sound like a complete cliché. Her vocals weren't the most stable, but you could see that she just needs to improve her breathing while dancing. Still sounded completely fine.
I didn't particularly hate any song performed last night but this one just stuck out to me! It's so unique and just such a fun song, I want to dance every time I hear it!!! Storm was just an average song, it wasn't bad but it wasn't memorable, I forgot about it as soon as goldstone started their performance and I actually only remembered about it when we got the little reminder of all the songs. 3 years in a row the song I liked best hasn't been picked, hopefully next year! Asanda has such a good voice! ♡
This would wipe the floor with this years selection. Just give the lass a few lessons in breathing technique when performing live, throw a few backup singers in there and it would be lit
Shaky vocals or not, it's still way better than the rest of the entries. I literally can't remember a single tune from the other songs, they just blend into one another in a generic Pop cheesefest.
She looks good and sounds good.....if she wasn't dancing so hard her singing would've been great...... she's a excellent singer with a beautiful voice..... I love to hear her sing
The studio version of this song, is golden- I have it on my phone and I listen to it a lot. Yes, shes young. Yes, shes dancing and singing - which is difficult to do for some people. Yes, I love this song, it was a clear winner - But... Even with her experiences of BGT and other shows- her vocals were weak and out of key- and this was just the 'You Decide' if she won and went to Eurovision- her nerves and this mixed together, could be a disaster. All an All- Asanda was my #1, but only due to the Studio version.- Some songs just don't work live.. Take 2015 Georgia's, Warrior- Brilliant song- but it was lacking in vocals in the live show and didn't get that far in the leader board.- I feel like this could of been a repeat with Asandas.
But Nina had a great vocal >_< I guess it just song wasn't good enough + not really eurovision concept + angry theme + disaster with smoke on the stage.
To all the idiots saying her vocals weren’t good, she’s 16!!! Do you even know how hard it is to do a routine like that and sing live? She was shaky in parts but for someone of 16 who isn’t signed and doesn’t have any real management I thought she did brilliantly.. if it was Shitney Spears she’s have mimed.
This would (with some vocal work) have had infinitely more potential than that crappy, generic, sickly happy song that won.Cant see the uk being above 20th now:((
Swap 2 of the backup dancers with backup singers, let the damn girl get a breath or two in here and there, and give her some decent sound mixing and the vocals would be absolutely fine. The BBC did her a huge disservice in the presentation here, and she still killed it. Now I'm just gonna be salty until May. :C
I think this should of won. Yes the performance was not that good but she could have some vocal work. Also, it's up to date with the current genre of music. We had a ballad last year and this year
she was discovered to be singing live so it doesnt leave me that impression she was good too bad that i had to agree that there are no backing vocals or could have been teach a breathing technique but we all knew that she was singing to this could be lit should be lit and should be won!
Having a good song is always the priority guys, vocals can be improved in the 4 months of margin we have until May, in all honesty, you fucked up tonight.
I wish she’d release a studio version of this song because it’s literally a vibe. Ever since her audition on BGT Asanda is a star in my eyes, her stage performance and trying to sing and dance at the same time she’s brilliant 🎉
This was so different for us and such a tune. Freedom hearts should have won last year and this should have won for this year. The UK just can’t make good decisions.
Gutted. This for me was the only song that packed a punch, and it did it so well too. The positive comments from fellow Europeans and TH-cam views shows that it was the best song we had. Again, gutted :(
We sent the best performance on the night Suri Nailed it , Asanda was my favorite up to this performance , she looses vocals at some points is breathless and at points out of tune , Suri on the hand nailed her song the lyrics are Anthemic I think the Spector of Gemini still hangs OVER us, suri now needs to move a little more getting away from the mic stand
Mark Hague Nothing to do with that, we don't send what Belarus,Georgia,Cyprus,Malta,former Soviet countries who all send English INDIE band type songs see Latvia the other years effort at being like Oasis
Mark maybe you are right about SuRie needing to have some more and choreographed movements but she is essentially a backup singer and perhaps this is the reason. It is not too late. Three months to Lisbon. A lot can be done in between and SuRie has said as much when interviewed on a UK TV morning program after her win at Brighton.
Carlos R That was her chance to impress and she blew it. We're not going to pick someone who might "improve". She's had months to get it right and still hit so many bum notes.
This should of won I could see this doing good Another ballads this year...Oh vocals could of done some work she would of time to make it work...shes only young
Best song but when performed Live? i dont think so .. imgaine her in a bigger stage .... it will look like a load of people who just woke up late with a hungover ready to perform IMO Surie although feels like its missing a few sentences actually does grow on you and is performed best
You really think she could improve in 3 months, the song was my favourite and the studio version was great she just couldn't sell it. Now storms was not the best song but I will have confidence in SuRie on the final that's why I changed my vote. If Asande was chosen I would not be able to relax wondering if she could get her vocals right on the night.
I think the song was lit when it first came out, we were listening it all day all night long in Turkey. But she was bad on that stage, I expected more stylish costumes like feathers jewels kinda like Nicki Minaj's Pound The Alarm or Stella Mwangi from ESC 2010 Norway but anyway she decided wear a jumpsuit for this show ?? Cmon guys.... She was weak than we expected, her voice n her song is soooo good but minutes ago she couldn't handle these dance moves and sing clearly at the same time. I was wanting the African side of her not the jumpsuit lady, if she were use them feathers or some skin showing or the real dance moves she could be really winner but anyway I was shocked when they announced SuRie, I think Raya was better than SuRie. Its too late now, congrats to UK in Portugal !! LOVE FROM TURKEY !!
I would not want what was an African and not British entry to be sent to Lisbon which is what this entry was. The whole tone was awful. The singer was breathless and moved about without any grace.The English language was butchered. Overall an awful embarrassment if this song entry had been chosen to represent Britain. Thank G-d it was not.
Asanda should have won. Her song is powerful and beautiful. Even though SuRie had the best vocals on the night, there is 4 months until the actual performance. This is more than enough time for Asanda to improve her vocals while dancing. SuRie had a really bad cringey song. You can improve your vocals, but you cannot change your song. Even with a revamp, SuRie's song won't be as good as Asanda's. This is why Asanda should have won. So to to recap, Asanda should have won because she has the best song, and with time the best vocals. Voila

Only just realised this is the same girl who was on britians got talent shes only 15/16 now! Trust me, this girl CAN SING! go check her out. I Love this song! Im gutted shes not representing us :(
I know ! She went to my primary school I remember when she was on bgt
The career that this girl hasn’t had yet is heartbreaking. She deserves so much more success than she has gotten.
4 years later and i still don’t understand how this didn’t win 😭
That’s an easy one, cus this is trash
Because the vocals were not there she was too nervous
Omg god, this song is so amazing. Why have not they made Asanda happen yet? This girl is very talented.
Yes you are right
Anyone saying her vocals were off 🤷🏽♀️she was amazing for having zero time to breathe love her voice and stage presence. She did amazing!🤷🏽♀️
Watching from your original country South Africa Asanda we are very proud of you girly!
Well done! 👏 keep flying higher
This had potential for *ICONIC* staging. What a shame.
this song actually bangs, it's a tragedy it never made the TOP 40.
This is defo a Top 10 song at best
With a bit of a coaching / mentoring and help with her breath control, she could have absolutely slayed with this. The song is a banger! 🔥
Asanda 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 Real winner for me! 💗💗
SE VOCÊ ESTAR ME ENTENDENDO VAI NO GOOOGLE TRADUTOR
SOU DO BRASIL
Asanda sei semplicemente favolosa
Ciao asanda sono italiano e di Venezia mi piace molto come canti il live cantando e ballando hip pop non è facile manca il fiato ma tu hai saputo tenete il palco brava piccola
😃😃😃😃😃😃
Needs to be on Apple Music. How this didn’t win I’ll never know. Could’ve came very high in the contest with this song
She should have won. For once I just really wanted the UK to send a proper banger. If she won, she could have used more backing vocalist and this would have been top 10. I don't think that will happen with Surie, but good luck anyways.
Yaa but she was so weak tonight, the song was robbed but her live vocals and her jumpsuit were worst of her.
Erdim Muslu She had 3 months to prepare, pared with backing vocalists this would have been amazing. This was a hit and now it got ruined.
Totally agree with u but those voters out there don't get it, naturally. Her voice is powerful but she must work hard but gurl just explain me that jumpsuit pleasee !!
Erdim Muslu Hahaha, that's pretty unexplainable.
She must not made that decision but anyway she did and lost. Its a total package like lights, dancers, that fuckin costumes ( I hated that jumpsuit so bad), voice, dance moves, song. Her lights was quite good, dancers were ok too, costume !!!!!!!!, her voice her live vocals were pretty bad unfortunately, dance wasn't so hit it was basic moves, but the song was perfect. Btw are u Turkish ?
Asanda ...I ve been follow u since 2001 till now.....U ar amazing girl! Im proud of u. My daughter love u so much cant let a day pass without watching ur videos.....
Still waiting for this to be on Spotify 😂
Best song by far. Not the best of vocals but people don't get how honestly difficult it is to dance and sing at the same time
Jess Parkinson if it is difficult for her then maybe she doesn't need to dance at all
Makes for a good show though
Maybe Loreen can get away with dancing, but not Asanda.
She was very young. Just needed some vocal coaching and stamina training and she’d have been good to go!
What an incredible performance! Captivating from the beginning and literally the only song on that night that didn't sound like a complete cliché. Her vocals weren't the most stable, but you could see that she just needs to improve her breathing while dancing. Still sounded completely fine.
This should have won! I’m so disappointed now, this was the only song that I liked. Oh well, I wish the best of luck for the UK.
Luck won't help them now lol
Edition. L don't, I'm british I hope we come last
I didn't particularly hate any song performed last night but this one just stuck out to me! It's so unique and just such a fun song, I want to dance every time I hear it!!! Storm was just an average song, it wasn't bad but it wasn't memorable, I forgot about it as soon as goldstone started their performance and I actually only remembered about it when we got the little reminder of all the songs. 3 years in a row the song I liked best hasn't been picked, hopefully next year! Asanda has such a good voice! ♡
This is actually a bop
This would wipe the floor with this years selection. Just give the lass a few lessons in breathing technique when performing live, throw a few backup singers in there and it would be lit
A mi SIEMPRE me ha encantado Azanda ,adoro su personalidad,talento versatilidad, baile y canta es una Diva.
Shaky vocals or not, it's still way better than the rest of the entries. I literally can't remember a single tune from the other songs, they just blend into one another in a generic Pop cheesefest.
ASANDA: SLAY
Love Assanda,she has a great smile,a mirror that she has a beautiful soul,,shes so talented,,from Philippines
Gorgeous and so very talented 💝 you deserve the greatest success beautiful young lady
This song is just awesome!
Guys, please stop at 1:18 it seems, that someone from the audience also wanted to be part of the performance!!! 😂😂😂
Larry der Entstellte 😂😂😂😂
Where?
Yeah, you have to be fast! ;-) That's a guy, who shows his head in front of the camera! XD
He made it hahhaha😂😂
Your average drunken audience member would probably have improved the performance :-)
She looks good and sounds good.....if she wasn't dancing so hard her singing would've been great...... she's a excellent singer with a beautiful voice..... I love to hear her sing
The studio version of this song, is golden- I have it on my phone and I listen to it a lot.
Yes, shes young.
Yes, shes dancing and singing - which is difficult to do for some people.
Yes, I love this song, it was a clear winner - But...
Even with her experiences of BGT and other shows- her vocals were weak and out of key- and this was just the 'You Decide' if she won and went to Eurovision- her nerves and this mixed together, could be a disaster.
All an All- Asanda was my #1, but only due to the Studio version.- Some songs just don't work live..
Take 2015 Georgia's, Warrior- Brilliant song- but it was lacking in vocals in the live show and didn't get that far in the leader board.- I feel like this could of been a repeat with Asandas.
But Nina had a great vocal >_< I guess it just song wasn't good enough + not really eurovision concept + angry theme + disaster with smoke on the stage.
Fatality Georgia 2015 was perfect.
HorokeyUsui The only one problem was the smoke.
I loved Warrior, Nina was so Whitney Dean
Asanda jezile screaming all the way from Detroit michigan your vocals is so awesome and stage presence is outstanding love you hope to see more of you
This girl needs to come back next year, with some improved vocals and win this shit because this is TALENT!
How I love this young. Sweet and simple
To all the idiots saying her vocals weren’t good, she’s 16!!! Do you even know how hard it is to do a routine like that and sing live? She was shaky in parts but for someone of 16 who isn’t signed and doesn’t have any real management I thought she did brilliantly.. if it was Shitney Spears she’s have mimed.
Jack Oli No excuse
“Shitney Spears”
😂😂😩
Fantastic
This would (with some vocal work) have had infinitely more potential than that crappy, generic, sickly happy song that won.Cant see the uk being above 20th now:((
Swap 2 of the backup dancers with backup singers, let the damn girl get a breath or two in here and there, and give her some decent sound mixing and the vocals would be absolutely fine. The BBC did her a huge disservice in the presentation here, and she still killed it. Now I'm just gonna be salty until May. :C
hello3motos1 I
Vex Fidel Exactly!!!
We wouldn't get above 20th anyway whoever won. It's all political voting by our European "friends". Some people are naive to it, I guess.
dtz1000 I agree it's political, but the best songs always end up in the first half anyway, what the UK rarely does bc it always sends boring songs
How can you sing my love so badly? kisses from Spain
Is this available on Spotify???? I need this masterpiece
I want Asanda at Eurovision: You Decide 2019!
I think this should of won. Yes the performance was not that good but she could have some vocal work. Also, it's up to date with the current genre of music. We had a ballad last year and this year
She’s very good singing and talents
gossh, this song is FANTASTIC!!!
BBC release the voting results now!!
Watching this back a week and wishing a) her vocals were stronger b) she was being less physical so she could focus more on the vocals.
With good vocals this entry would be in top 5 in ESC for sure... but Asanda is only 16, she'll come back stronger!
we never wil get the answers how high this masterpiece ended....
she needed to win!!!!
I voted for this!
Asanda is so special and a total natural.
She’s growing up so fast!!!!
Essa menina canta demais 🥰
yaaaaaaassss sis :)
This song is Cool Me Down 2.0. A clear favourite that is ruined by mediocre vocals and questionable staging decisions.
DJ Cox so true, but What Color Is Your Life is nowhere as bad as Storm is
Are you bashing her?
So good 💙💜❤️💙💜❤️💗💗💗💗💗😘😍😘
Four year passed and i am still in anger why the UK didn't choose her.
exactly 😭It's the new Beyonce
very nice, great voice
Why this is not on Spotify??
I think I’m the only one who like the live version lol
she was discovered to be singing live
so it doesnt leave me that impression
she was good
too bad that i had to agree that there are no backing vocals or could have been teach a breathing technique
but we all knew that she was singing to
this could be lit should be lit and should be won!
Having a good song is always the priority guys, vocals can be improved in the 4 months of margin we have until May, in all honesty, you fucked up tonight.
Blame the juries.
Semplicemente bellissima
I love her beautiful voice❤
So good
I wish she’d release a studio version of this song because it’s literally a vibe. Ever since her audition on BGT Asanda is a star in my eyes, her stage performance and trying to sing and dance at the same time she’s brilliant 🎉
In 2025 the bbc should pick her to represent us because her singing is amazing ❤🎉😊
Great performance from the guy at 1:18
This was so different for us and such a tune. Freedom hearts should have won last year and this should have won for this year.
The UK just can’t make good decisions.
Eleanor Withnall Those who voted for SuRie disagree with you.
Anyone who voted for that cheesy crap is barking mad. So well done for putting us last place this year 👍🏻
Eleanor Withnall I love how, despite the fact that the majority of songs haven't yet been chosen, you've decided we'll come last 😂
Charlienmeg I’ve already made my mind up. So stop keep going on and on. It’s evident you like the song and I don’t. Let’s leave it at that ✌🏻
Eleanor Withnall "Going on and on" ! 😂 you're funny.
Oh yeah this should have definitely won
I voted her!
Gutted. This for me was the only song that packed a punch, and it did it so well too. The positive comments from fellow Europeans and TH-cam views shows that it was the best song we had. Again, gutted :(
I love you asanda
This could have brought you guys a good result! Live from germany
Omg she should have won she did so good.
Ela arrasa na música e dança. Muito bom!!❤️❤️
We sent the best performance on the night Suri Nailed it , Asanda was my favorite up to this performance , she looses vocals at some points is breathless and at points out of tune , Suri on the hand nailed her song the lyrics are Anthemic I think the Spector of Gemini still hangs OVER us, suri now needs to move a little more getting away from the mic stand

Three months to Lisbon. A lot can be done in between and SuRie has said as much when interviewed on a UK TV morning program after her win at Brighton.
A backing singer with a very good voice , hopefully she has the confidence in herself to take it a step further
This should win
This was probably my favourite, but man, those vocals weren't good :(
Bryan bro 2:51 I agree
100% agree!
Bryan bro Live vocals can always be improved but a chosen song can't be changed...
I'm pretty sure it can last year our song got a revamp and didn't malta 1 or 2 years ago literally change there song after she won the selection
But she’s 16 And was dancing at the same time. Legends was one of the most entertaining songs of the night. Better than Storm.
Great performance Asanda,loving you💕💕
This is so much better than what UK voted for. ;__; It's a shame. I would have loved to see this in Lisbon
This was robbed :( :( :(
Real winner imo
IKEAPanda:D How was it robbed? There was a vote, and it lost. No robbery.
You need to have your ears checked
IKEAPanda:D the staging, the vocals, the crappy/cringy dancers were terrible.
Not good live...
IKEAPanda:D if she sang in tune then maybe
WINNER.
Asanda can sing. So, what the feck went wrong here?!
Although she did not have the best vocals, she still deserved to win.
ROBBED! 😢
KEREM - ESC the voice decides everything in this competition!
+Jake Low u will fail one more year Jake with this song u could make at least top 10
ESC Robert Vocals can always be improved, it's sad that people don't get that... 😕
Jake Low if only that were true.
KEREM - ESC yeah but if she enters the contest with these vocals it would be a problem
She would improve if you give her the oportunnity but you did't choose her... The best of all songs
Carlos R That was her chance to impress and she blew it. We're not going to pick someone who might "improve". She's had months to get it right and still hit so many bum notes.
Wow she's so grown up!
She's not meant for the corrupt music industry. 🎉❤One day God will lift her up for Himself
IT’S FANTASTIC I LOVE IT REAL WINNER
This should of won I could see this doing good Another ballads this year...Oh vocals could of done some work she would of time to make it work...shes only young
REAL WINNER
Best song but when performed Live? i dont think so .. imgaine her in a bigger stage .... it will look like a load of people who just woke up late with a hungover ready to perform IMO Surie although feels like its missing a few sentences actually does grow on you and is performed best
Nice song but terrible performance. I don't get people who refuse to see that. It's like you're blind to the truth.
Asanda had the BEST song imo! She would have improved a lot her vocals during 3 months!
You really think she could improve in 3 months, the song was my favourite and the studio version was great she just couldn't sell it. Now storms was not the best song but I will have confidence in SuRie on the final that's why I changed my vote. If Asande was chosen I would not be able to relax wondering if she could get her vocals right on the night.
The audience didn't like the performance, and she lost. That's how this show works pretty much
Hi! I love it
REAL WINNER GREETINGS FROM LITHUANIA
I really wanted her to win :/
Amazing sing
I'm obsessed
What have you done UK? This is a top 5 in Losbon without doubts.....
Greetings from Spain
I think the song was lit when it first came out, we were listening it all day all night long in Turkey. But she was bad on that stage, I expected more stylish costumes like feathers jewels kinda like Nicki Minaj's Pound The Alarm or Stella Mwangi from ESC 2010 Norway but anyway she decided wear a jumpsuit for this show ?? Cmon guys.... She was weak than we expected, her voice n her song is soooo good but minutes ago she couldn't handle these dance moves and sing clearly at the same time. I was wanting the African side of her not the jumpsuit lady, if she were use them feathers or some skin showing or the real dance moves she could be really winner but anyway I was shocked when they announced SuRie, I think Raya was better than SuRie. Its too late now, congrats to UK in Portugal !! LOVE FROM TURKEY !!
Cmon guys. shes amazing.. singing LIVE under that much pressure is alot.... big up Asanda
Agreed Jaz. I think nerves just got the better of her last night - but there's always next year! You did a great job too!
I would not want what was an African and not British entry to be sent to Lisbon which is what this entry was. The whole tone was awful. The singer was breathless and moved about without any grace.The English language was butchered. Overall an awful embarrassment if this song entry had been chosen to represent Britain. Thank G-d it was not.
What's the name of the blond dancer? I need to know... for science hehe. Shame she sounded so breathless here, studio version was the banger.
Yes, I'm agree he is handsome
Asanda should have won. Her song is powerful and beautiful. Even though SuRie had the best vocals on the night, there is 4 months until the actual performance. This is more than enough time for Asanda to improve her vocals while dancing. SuRie had a really bad cringey song. You can improve your vocals, but you cannot change your song. Even with a revamp, SuRie's song won't be as good as Asanda's. This is why Asanda should have won.
So to to recap, Asanda should have won because she has the best song, and with time the best vocals.
Voila
Woo I love this
She should have wo-on! She should have wo-on!
When will this be on Spotify
We're still waiting 😭
Love from Burytia 😍😍😍😍😍
Sei semplicemente meravigliosa
