It takes some serious balls to host a National Eurovision selection when you are being bombed out of existance but that’s exactly what Suspline did for Vidbir 2023. They found one of the only safe spaces in Kyiv, a bomb shelter in the main underground station, shoved up a stage, put all the infrastructure up, and let ten singers strut their stuff on a very compact stage.
As usual there was a 50/50 jury and televote mix and the full results are shown below
Song | Performer(s) | Jury | Televote | Total | Psn |
I’m not alone | Moisei | 1 | 6 | 7 | 7 |

Tvorchi, in a slight surprise, have taken the crown by winning the televote and coming runners up with the jury. Below is the live performance of the song.
