Yes, it is high time they won again ... it's a shame the Netherlands are out though, would have been fun to be Amsterdam 2016 ... but as you know, I am all for Rome 2016 or Milan 2016 ... #TeamItaly
not a great fan of Italy though (I like it but I don't love it) ;)

If Italy was represented by NEK (he came in second after Il Volo) then they would be my #1.

I know some Eurovision fans don't even watch semi-finals not to spoil surprise before the final begins. I could never do that. :giggle:

I love NEK too ... but I loved this song much better ...

And as you said, there are several great songs/singers ... so there are a couple of countries that can take the title this year ...

yes, some don't even listen to all the songs before the final - and that's really crazy.  
I'd be like what's the point then? :laugh:

so what did you think of the second semi-final?

There were some great performances and some not so great ... I am happy to see Montenegro and Israel in the finals ... Sweden (Mans) was amazing .... so it will definitely be a battle for points till the end ... if Mans wins, I will be happy too ... but I am still #TeamItaly

it was much stronger than the first one, with mostly better songs  :)

Have you noticed how many countries sang in off key yesterday - San Marino, Ireland, Iceland (that was horrific) and Poland (vocally Monika was not so good).

surprised Malta is out and so is the Czech Republic :wacko:
Cyprus got into the final and I have no clue how that happened  :confused1:
I don't like the attitude of Mans, to me he's a bit cocky and too confident.

what about the second part of the final - it's full of ballads, around 10 songs there are ballads - it's gonna be one big snoozefest :laugh:

I think Sweden is overhyped, because it's basically the visuals that make the song attractive. and the guy singing it is goodlooking. But the song itself has a very monotone refrain in my opinion. I think Russia might have the biggest chance winning the competition. That song is really one amazing piece!

for many Eurovision fans Sweden's staging lost all its charm because they've already seen it during Melodifestivalen
there's also an issue of alleged plagiarism, many people claim "Heroes" is a blunt rip-off from "Lovers on the Sun" by David Guetta. :hmm:

If Italy doesn't win though ... I would love for either Serbia, Belgium, Spain, Israel to win ... I will be happy if Mans wins as well ... but we have been to Sweden already ... give me somewhere else so I can actually go next year ... not that I would actually go to Israel or Serbia ... but Belgium, Spain, Italy would be perfect for me ...

I wonder if I can "bribe" Europe to vote for my next destination ... :innocent: :w00t: :giggle: :-D :hmm: :sofunny:

that'd have to be one heck of a bribe :sofunny:
what about Russia? great song and excellent vocals from Polina - but I don't think gay fans would be pleased if Russia actually won.

The song is great ... and will sure make Top 10 ... but if Russia did happen to win ... there's no way I could go there next year ... that would be a lot of $$$
