I hear speculations of fraudulent voting? I actually hope that's
true and that the broadcaster finds out... because this will not
make it past the semi-final. It has no strength in any category and
is extremely forgettable, even for an upbeat song.

Now this country will have a bad result again.This song is simply
crap, cheep and the singer isn't great either.I don't see this in
the final at all.

Comparisons with the Portuguese entry in 2007 'Dança Comigo (vem
Ser Feliz)' are inevitable as both songs have been composed by the
same man. 'Quero Ser Tua' is a lambada light, happy, catchy and
positive song but with very little depth. This should get people
moving their bodies to the rhythm. Sabrina just missed the final in
Helsinki
and
I fear that Suzy is heading for a similar result this year. It
should also be mentioned that her vocals also need tightening up
considerably.

Lack of any originality ... we can see this entry from
Portugal
even in the 80s. It doesn’t have anything that will make it
stand out

In
this polemic final the five songs were poor compared to rest of
Europe
. At
the end of the day they send the song that can show a little modern
image of
Portugal
to
Europe
. Hope
someday
Portugal
realises tradition is important, but modernity is necessary in terms
of competition.

Not the greatest singer or the best song, but I have to say it is
lovely to have
Portugal
back. They were missed last year

When I listen to this track I feel as if I've been transported
back into the 90's. It's crying out for a remix. A very mediocre
effort from
Portugal
.

The first time I heard I thought this was an African
song style and not Portuguese. Now let's hope they change completely
the song, because it’s a low quality song IMO.

No way ! I was waiting too much from
Portugal
and this happened. It sound so cheap, staging is bad. Oh well,
I'm so sad. No final for
Portugal
's return to the Eurovision I'm afraid.

Quite a happy little song, the best from
Portugal
since 2008. A summerhit maybe.

They had two very good songs in their
National Final and they chose the weakest one. Another potential
Summer hit, tragically on the footsteps of Que me quiten lo bailao
or Mandinga. It comes and goes, very quickly and it leaves me
definitely and undoubtedly uninterested. Really nothing special for
their waited comeback.

This is indeed one of the big surprises to me in 2014. It is
really a good catchy song and is one of the better ones
Portugal
has entered in the contest. It reminded me a bit of the first
Portuguese song I have heard BEM BOM. Nice they are singing in their
language. Hope Portugal is greeted with a place in the final on
their return.

I'm thrilled to see
Portugal
back in the
ESC
, but this is just cheap and (with the exception of that last
high note) not exceptionally well-performed. Not for me!

Nice to see
Portugal
sends an uptempo song. Should stand out amongst a swath of
ballads but still feels old fashioned. Anyone else hear The Lambada
in there.

So glad to see
Portugal
back but a bit disappointed in what they have chosen. The
backing singers need to work on their vocals and Suzy needs to be a
bit stronger. If they don't buck up this won't make the final

Is it just
me or does Suzy remind anyone of Kati Wolf? This is catchy, uptempo
and fun, but also VERY Portuguese. I am not sure that it will
translate so well around
Europe
, but this year’s contest is
severely lacking in fun uptempo numbers, so who knows?

Dear
me, this enforced jolliality never worked in Eurovision. It is the
first time I’ve heard backing vocalists who are worse singers than
the lead, and she’s none too hot in the vocal department. A hybrid
of all the bad jolly songs we’ve ever had. At least they seem to
be having fun

Well, we
know she can't sing live! This sounds like a ten year old's idea of
a lambada with laughably weak orchestration. Still, it's a slice of
silly fun in this year's ballad-heavy contest and dear old Suzy may
well be Baby Doll: The Next Generation.

Pleasant little salsa-esque number. Won’t set the scoreboard alight,
but it’s a badly needed up-tempo song in a dull semi, so well done
them!

With hints of the Lambada, this is ok. Kind of jolly but it lacks
something to set it apart. Borderline qualifier.

Does

heard it all before. Singer isn't that strong. Med pop done
averagely!

A promising intro turns into tinny
dated euro-pop and something that Sinitta would have turned her nose
up to, at that!
Portugal
needs to get into the 21st century in choosing their
entries to
ESC
. A foot tapper but who would vote for it?

Bouncy, happy ditty but ultimately
unforgettable and uninteresting. Maybe some English might
help, though starting with a "waah waah" doesn't.
Suzy is also rather flat and sounds out of breath most of the time.
Disappointing return I'm afraid.

With
France and Spain voting in their semi Portugal are certainly in
luck, but that's about as good as it gets. At least it's lively and
different from everything else. I'm disappointed though.

At last! Something with a beat and a bit of

their ass to this in Euroclub (not a pretty sight!)

The Lambada-inspired instrumentals are
rather more appealing than the vocals, but this is still a fun, old
school Eurovision number, and very welcome in a year of such
musically downbeat competition.

Instantly memorable, this lambada-pimba style song was clearly
the best thing at the FdC. Love the fact that you can actually hear
the drummers. Sadly, Portuguese "fans" embarrassed their
country with their petty booing when she won, with echoes of 2011.
They'll soon forget their displeasure once Suzy delivers
Portugal
's best result in years.
