Yes at the #1, fair enough at the #2 but #3 was surely some kind of campaign by annoyed Russians still pissed that they didn't win Shows how the general perception of the show is different to the UK as well, as a UK vote would just be full of 60s to 80s UK entries with the odd Waterloo thrown in.

i immediately call bullshit whenever top 10 of such a list contains that many songs from the last couple of years

Oh give over at Salvador being #2 already. I thought Eurogais were a bit more discerning than that, I'd expect that for Blanche even though I don't agree with it as I still find it as boring as sin. Other three of the top 3 are good but like Pav said, don't have the memory span of a goldfish when ranking this.

Not that I voted but still let me complain at the awful collective taste of Eurofans lately.

Dinle was 31st so all is not a total disaster!
