Justice was done

20 years we got  ZERO

this year we WON

i'm glad, we deserved it,

We took chances with a Disney Ballad singing in our own language

Why did he do soo weird? I understand he has a heart condtion and back issues but he acted so weird and that coat was way too big so it only contributed to its weird behaviour. I liked the song but this behaviour and hand movements etc took my attention too much and made me dislike the song. Made me think that, apart from his medical condition, he was also doing this weird act. Or am i completely wrong?

The great brittain entry could be a song for Celine. In this version i did not like it but i could certainly see Celine belting the song!

After a good nights sleep, I am very pleased that Portugal won. I was really rooting for Bulgaria yesterday since those two countries were most likely to win if you looked at the points they were given. But Portugal won by far more points than the other countries.
I think I like the song now, after listening a few more times


I have to say that I got dust in my eyes when his sister joined him on the stage and sang with him. I thought the song was even better with her

Wonderful ! Zero points from 41 countries for Germany. Make Germany great again. Only Ireland destroys this results with 3 points and 3 more points from peoples voting.

I have to say that there is reason for it. It is the first time people hear the song..she was not really on tune and the dress plus the background were grey..boring..colorless. and so was she. So it did not interest me..and probably a lot of other people as well.
We watched the show with a couple of friends and we immediately noticed that spain and germany were..like..we did not like them.

Sorry..just my opinion. Though i really felt for germany and spain and thought how that must feel for those singers.

Next year, we should send someone more professional, like Helene Fischer (love or hate her, but she can sing and is a big Celine fan ) or Xavier Naidoo.

Germany was a cheap rip off from Sia's Titanium! That guitar reef is exactly the same! IMO it was only justice they didn't get any points.

Oh what a boring ending to this ESC season ...

I think changes need to be done to the Jury system voting as it seems every "professional jury" came in with a set mind of who they were voting for ... and at the end it showed - especially with such awful performances on the first semi-final going through over better performances ...

And the media ... oh the media ... they influenced everybody into voting for such songs ... and how the heck did Moldova get to # 3 and Sweden??? WTH???

EBU love for Sweden is pathetic and should be restrained ... Sweden should just pay the fees like the Big 5 and be in the final every year, and EBU should stop putting holding them in high regard!!!

End of Vent!!!

[ErwinG]

So now that my vent is over ...

We are going to Portugal, Lisbon has just been announced as the host city ...

Has anyone of you been to a ESC Festival??? My plan is to go next year ... and get to visit as well ... so the planning will start soon ...

[Dancing_Queen]

Actually, I think Sweden should win every year. If only so Petra and Måns can host every year
The Ukrainians did their best, but there's no comparison, really.

My sister loved Moldova and did more people at the party I was at. But to get to #3??? I don't get it.

I'm surprised Iceland didn't give Sweden 12 points since we are "family" or something like that. But I'm glad we didn't. I don't like when countries give each other points just because of relations.
Iceland voted for Bulgaria #1 and Belgium #2

Alexander Rybak covered the Bulgarian song and I think it's actually a very good cover. He didn't change the song at all, I just think well .. it's better somehow

Eurovision 2018 is in good hands. Lisbon has already been selected as the host city and MEO Arena as the ESC venue.

Well done

I would never guess Italy is gonna end up outside top 5 and Poland flop at 22nd place.

I even promised myself I'm gonna follow Davey's example and try not to watch or listen to any songs before the actual contest. That resolution lasted for about an hour.

A very good friend of mine and a family member has published a video on youtube where she sings the Portuguese song in Icelandic. She also plays the piano. Recorded in her livingroom
