I don't think any UK Eurovision fan could be more proud of Sam Ryder tonight, superb performance and what a fantastic ambassador he has been for the UK throughout. Humble, kind, honest and unique. Cruel to miss out on what I think we know should have been a rightful win, but...couldn't have asked for any more effort from the guy tonight. Hopefully the BBC have had a wake up call this year on what actually wins Eurovision contests and we start to see some actual thought and effort put into it from now on, as they seemed to this year...carried really by a fantastic singer.

I totally agree as well that BBC should put more effort than before now to sustain this momentum.

Sam Ryder is a extremly positive person with high star quality and the composition is wonderful, this mix of Elton John, The Beatles, his own personality and good rock music.
I am from Ukraine, I would like to thank everybody who voted for my country, this win means a lot for us. But I personally feel that in a different circumstances Sam should have won. For me this song was the best and deserved to win, Sam’s voice and energy is everything, it melted my heart and I listed to it on repeat .

Oh…you are hosting? I see a lot of ESC Fans getting new passports 😁 (a shame that we need them now). But good for you. This entry was the proof that the UK did not get so few points, because of the Brexit or everyone hating them (lots of comments in the past years seem to believe that), but because of the songs you sent. Now you sent a great singer with a great song and we were most willing to call for you 😎 Next year just send Ed Sheeran or Adele and everything will be good 😁

Sam Ryder is one of those special singers that does what he wants with his voice. In this live performance he didn't stick to the "studio version" and he surprised us with some good variations. Nice electric guitar in the end by the way. Finished 2nd overall with 466 points, 283 of witch from the juries.

Amazing talent that does the UK proud, fresh from his Eurovision success!

this is fine example that Europe hasn't been "biased against UK" like some people have claimed, you just have been sending bad/generic songs. same goes for Spain this year. last year Italy and France from big 5 got to see that all it takes is to send good song. and i am glad Brits see this also as a positive thing. Sam Ryder is the real winner for me personally (and i am no tiktoker). his song has been blasted on radio here (non UK) and surely he'll have awesome time touring and his songs being on charts.

The real WINNER. The voice, performance and staging of a WINNER. I lost the count of how many times I've listened to this song and watched this video!! Thank you, thank you UK for sending this beautiful and charming artist with great talent. I've listened to many of his other songs and he's really incredible. Sam will be among my Eurovision favorite artists forever!! Well done UK friends. Greetings from Venezuela!!

True
Need to watch this again to remind myself we can send amazing songs to Eurovision
I never comment on KZread, I'm not the type. But this song honestly made me re-awaken the love for music, in an almost a childish joy of hearing something beautiful for the first time. Saying anything else would be useless. Love from Italy
He's giving me very big Elton John and Freddie Mercury energy with his marvelous vocals and stage presence, not to mention his outfit is magnificent and his hair is that of an epic rock Viking. Sam, you're number one in the hearts of all of us in the UK, and did us proud, truly. I hope there's a bright future ahead of you in the music industry.

Thought exactly the same, this performance (song/voice/outfit) gives me vibes of a mix of Elton John and Freddie Mercury, it's fantastic

Я тоже увидела многое от Фредди Меркури. Который для меня эталон и один из лучших. Хотя голос совсем другой,но что-то он перенял,но не испортил ,просто использовал и сделал чем-то своим. Не вижу в этом ничего плохого учиттья у самых лучших. Это скорее одна школа и музыкальная традиция. Я смотрела другие его видео,где он самовыражается и поёт песни других исполнителей в режиме музыкального экстпромта. У этого парня широкий диапазон и он легко импровизирует. Я думаю ему определено блестящее будущее,и публика его должна любить за его голос талант и харизму. Для меня лично на Евровидении он в большом отрыве от других номер один.
