            Have a soft spot for 'Paris me dit (Yalla ya helo!)', Ali has put a fair bit of thought into that staging - not sure it quite worked but appreciate his clear passion for the performance. Strong finish and overall solid. #eurovisionfrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            Paris me dit is underrated, it's dreamy but intense and it has a nice melody, hoping for a good result #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali did good. Not to win, but did good.
Love the revamp and the camera take. He needs to work on his voice on live show.
6 fair enough.

            Paris Me Dit  was another great song in the lineup tonight. It's absolutely sad that only ONE song can win tonight. Ali would be great for France  France  as well. Loved his performance!  Love  #EurovisionFrance  France

            YES I KNEW PARIS ME DIT WOULD BE AMAZING!! so proud of ali  Love  #CestVousQuiDecidez #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali - Paris me dit (Yalla ya helo!)
He is very strong vocally, maybe strongest male singer. This song is definitely better live than studio. Quite enjoy the staging as the song went on. Don't think he missed a note. Great 
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            Really liking this and Ali performs beautifully and the chorus is so elevating, gorgeous staging too but I feel just one thing is missing? #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Paris Me Dit giving me big winner vibes, my second most played song this month  Love  #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Je t'adore Ali  Love ! Hope he impresses Gaultier with his style #EurovisionFrance #cvqd #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            ALI YOU ARE AMAZING WE LOVED THIS PERFORMANCE, VOICE AND YOUR OUTIFT 
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali could be the dark horse. Legit would support him if he wins. #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali so good live wasn't expecting this woow #EurovisionFrance          
        
            ALI WIN PLEASE THANK YOU #EurovisionFrance          
        
            And now it's the adorable Ali - Steve  Love 
He fled war-torn Lebanon and this song is his love story to the city which welcomed him.
#EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            I'm still rooting for paris me dit but pourvu qu'on m'aime is definitely my winner so far #eurovisionfrance          
        
            Ali - another eye-catching staging but needed more movement from the get go as it started feeling rather restrictive. Maybe a wind machine ramping up throughout the song...? His voice sounded good and had decent connection down the camera. Not quite there.
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali is giving a great performance here, the song isn't my favourite though, it's light and fluffy  France  #CestVousQuiDecidez #EurovisionFrance          
        
            I want Amir and Ali to make beautiful babies. #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Paris me dit is actually pretty decent. Love the Lebanese vibes #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Wow, Ali is really pouring his emotion into the song. Very impressive performance. Paris me dit is sounding so encompassing #EurovisionFrance          
        
            I prefer when Ali is screaming singing here, the low notes don't sound good here.
This song doesn't suits his vocals, because you can feel he can give a powerful performance with the right song and this is not it.
Wasted potential. 
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali, I would like to borrow that outfit. Fun sleeves! #EurovisionFrance          
        
            paris me dit was INCREDIBLE, how have I not paid attention to this song before 
#CestVousQuiDecidez #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Oh Ali getting my fave Madonna song as his background music, iconic #EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            how everyone on twitter is amazed that Ali's song is actually good. why didn't we notice all of this before? #CestVousQuiDecidez #EurovisionFrance          
        
            The changes made on Paris me dit (Yalla ya helo) since the demo work well and improved this. Also love Ali's Lestat cosplay. #EurovisionFrance          
        
            I AM BACK FOR PARIS ME DIT PLEASE BE GOOD #eurovisionfrance          
        
            okay, Ali is CUTE and i like the song a lot #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Quite an enjoyable 3-mins from Ali. Memorable staging. Again ticking the bottom 5 #Eurovision box, though. #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            France  I must say we've got some fantastic staging tonight - and Ali's no different #EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            #EurovisionFrance omg paris me dit grew SO MUCH on me. amazing.          
        
            All I will say is that Ali is so beautiful #EurovisionFrance #cvqd          
        
            Ali's song number 11 - and it's Paris Me Dit (Yalla)!  A good song, one I like quite a bit! 
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            Paris me dit!!! Such an amazing song!!!! But a song about paris without the Eiffel Tower

            France  #EurovisionFrance
We have reached the penultimate performance of the night. Up next, it's Ali with Paris me dit. Ali grew up in war-torn Lebanon. All his family are lawyers or doctors: he really admires his siblings but knows music is his calling. 
#eurovision          
        
            France  Ali is from Lebanon, so imagine if he wins - we could get a Lebanese performer for the first time since 2005! #EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez #Eurovision          
        
            Paris Me Dit giving me winner vibes #EurovisionFrance          
        
            ok why did i sleep on ali so much tho its really good live #EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            Omg I low key LOVE Paris me dit! #CestVousQuiDecidez #eurovision          
        
            I love Ali. #EurovisionFrance          
        
            Ali deserves credit for the creative musical theatre staging and the revamp to give it more lift where needed #EurovisionFrance          
        
            I dunno how to feel about Ali, there's a lot of good bits but Paris me dit doesn't quite put them all together #EurovisionFrance #CVQD          
        
            ali ohh my god yeess  Love  #eurovisionfrance          
        
            Ali is so handsome though
#EurovisionFrance          
        
            France  This is giving me the idea that Conchita would do this style if she was to go for an ethnic banger, but that could be because Ali really does look like Conchita #EurovisionFrance #CestVousQuiDecidez          
        
            with this outfit Ali reminds me of a young adorable Dracula #EurovisionFrance
