Aiste is one of the best from Lithuanian selection along with Donny and Erica , you made a mistake when you did not put her higher , she deserved at least minimum 8 because that song is really magnificent , not just her flawless voice 😀 Shame on you Wiwijury , you disappointed me , I will never believe in your scores :/
