Whatever happened Ruslana’s “Wild Dances” will always have a special place in Southeast Asia, even a famous Vietnamese singer sang a cover of it :p

This Eurovision was something like elections in China with only one party take a part. We have 39 countries and Ukraine who become first fav even before their song was selected. And than it was all about Ukraine, and all others were just a pupets. 

 

Stefania is a good song and guys are great, but there was at last 10 better songs who deserved title much more. Spain, Netherlands, UK, Portugal, Serbia, Greece, Poland, Lithuania, Sweden.... I dont have nothing against Ukraine and their people, they have my full support in this war, but this was just a wrong. Thats why they are a pitty winners (again).

 

What is next, Ukraine won FIFA world cup on same way? 

 

My winner this year is UK and congratulations to BBC who finally send a good song.

Yeah, Eurovision this year was political (as always actually) but at least this time I like the symbolism of it.

 

especially because the huge voting came out of the televoting.  ♥️🇺🇦

It is what it is, we can add it to list of things Putin ruined with his stupid war. Eurovision was never truly political on this scale before but I can't really be angry at anyone except Putin and Russia. People can't turn their brains off while watching a TV show that features a popular vote involving countries when we are the closest to an all-out war between Europe and Russia we have ever been since World War II.

Absolutely clear that Ukraine won due to the war, but that is ok. 
the song is average. 
the only other two songs I could imagine as winner were 

sweden:   actually a good song, although Sweden is my most hated esc country 

and Spain: average song but outstanding show.


 

UK not my cup of tea 

totally overrated: Lithuania (boring), Serbia (but good show), Greece, Portugal and Italy 
underrated: Czech Rep, Belgium, Germany , Armenia 

but that is my taste. 

and EBU should start investigate Azerbaijan, so many points from the juries :lol:

 

sorry for Albania, but they ruined it with the performance in the semis

Aaaaand it's getting worse......

 

Polish ESC fans started targeting Ukrainian jury members on social media.

 

Why?

 

BECAUSE THEY FOLLOWED THE RULES OF EUROVISION AND TRIED TO VOTE PROFESSIONALLY

 

I'm so done with this stupidity. Ukraine is fighting a fucking war, ESC fans are becoming more and more insane every year.

 

Death threats to the specialists that were working on Eurovision in Italy, massive cyber-bullying campaign against Switzerland for just fucking singing his heart out.

 

But yeah, TIX got death threats last year as well, only because Keiino didn't win. I'm honestly hurt that such a contest breeds so much toxicity.

 

I got attacked on Twitter for not liking Spain and Serbia this year, people need to separate the fact that disliking a song doesn't equal your country is trash and I hate it.

Six countries (Azerbaijan, Georgia, Montenegro, Poland, Romania & San Marino) had their jury votes annulled and EBU gave those points based on some mysterious voting patterns. Azerbaijan & Georgia jury wanted to give 12 points to Ukraine and EBU gave those 12 points to Great Britain :lol: I mean the voting is rigged by EBU and they are even gloating about it? How long until this nonsense continues? :dunno:

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
