Poll: Who is your favourite in Portugal’s Festival da Canção 2024?
Who did you vote for? Which acts do you think have a chance of winning the national selection? Let us know in the comments below.
Leo Middea would definitly stand out… It probably won’t win but at least it would stand out i like this one a lot.
Mela with agua would be my pick.. something’s missing from Filipa’s song, but we’ll have to wait and see what it’s like live. i miss a little Cabo Verde rythms this year though….i miss the beach and the sound of the waves lol
In my opinion change, memory, bosh and Filipa are doing well and I must say the great vocal performance is from memory. He have a wonderful voice. In my point of view he deserves win. The song is a classic, but with lots of charme and identity. Well done!
I love the Vibe of “Change” and After what happened in 2021, i feel Portugal could get into Silk’s boat haha
I love Maka as well
Change it’s a great song !
withdraw also post NF pls, take Iceland’s example
give those israeli’s their well deserved karma
Most sound really similar to each other and it took me a few listens to spot the gems. Iolanda‘s song is one of the more immediate. But I also like Pontos Finais.
Portugal’s NF is the only one that I just cannot force myself to listen through. The definition of boring.
We appreciate your honest opinion and we sincerely apologize for the irreparable harm we may have caused you. Please accept this humble gift:

I don’t know, couldn’t finish any of them because I fell asleep after listening to only first 30 seconds of each…. zzzZz
You should go see a psychiatrist and check that attention span… An early diagnosis may prevent you from having a miserable life.
“Ben longe daiqui” is my preliminary favourite.
Can you please elaborate? I’m curious! 🙂
I guess it is just the most immediate for me. I like general spirit and groove. They seem nice, and fun. That’s all for now.
I don’t necessarily think it can win, or even qualify… but so what.
Loooove the clear City Pop influence
Not sure yet, but it’ll be one of Perpétua, Léo Middea and Iolanda for me.
With a revamp at the end of his song, easily Joao Borsch!
IOLANDA for the win
This would be a great choice !
My fav from the portuguese selection this year is João Borsch
