May 16, 200916 yr It was a no brainer Norway would win. Glad I put a fiver on them to win, it almost covered my other flop bets (I put money on Albania... oooooops!). Anyway... United effing Kingdom in the top five!! Well chuffed, I don't do ballads, but Jade did good!
May 16, 200916 yr I still think Norway was not the greatest performer, but I guess it's just cos he's young. Anyway I can't wait to hear the Russian version of the song :kink:
May 16, 200916 yr Well done Jade, 5th is amazing. Obviously i'd have prefered it if she stayed second, but she did amazingly well. Very pleased for Iceland aswell. Cant remember how Portugal, Malta, Sweden etc did but i dont think Spain did all that well. Shame. Well done to Norway, not the best song IMO but still a decent winner
May 16, 200916 yr And Portugal are so high! :w00t: Not exactly, we ended at like 16th or something. I wanna see the points again. I think Ukraine got 0 from Portugal which is absolutely baffling
May 16, 200916 yr Norway have been the favourotes since the VERY beginning of the National Selections, since he even got through the Semi of Norge Melodi Grand Prix, so please stop talking $h!t. Yes i'm 'talking $h!t' - I wasnt saying Norways win was fixed, but that many elements just highlight political voting. Everytime an eastern block country such as Estonia gave 12 to Bosnia or the likes i LOL'd good and proper. As for Norway, down to personal opinion i guess, but imo the song is nothing great :/ Fantastic for Jade though :wud:
May 16, 200916 yr Not exactly, we ended at like 16th or something. I wanna see the points again. I think Ukraine got 0 from Portugal which is absolutely baffling 15th or 16th, but STILL it's extremely good seeing that it was predicted to be in the bottom 5! :o
May 16, 200916 yr What an absolute joke :/ The song is ok, but nothing special :mellow: So many things there just highlighted why Eurovision is so fixed :/ Corny, catchy and gimmicky with the violins – a typical Eurovision winner especially in the 90’s.
May 16, 200916 yr Thanks to all people who have congratulated Norway :wub: Thank you for 10 points UK and thank yo Europe for all the AMAZING points.. I have no idea what to do now.. its our national day today/tomorrow.. its 00:24 AM here! :w00t: Tomorrow its going to be crazy in Norway!! :o OH LORD.. Is this real or this a Fairytale? :kink:
May 16, 200916 yr i can see why norway win it is the kind of song you can see people loving i meant to add a huge well done to azerbaijan aswell i love dthe song and they did so well i voted azerbaijan and the uj and both done brilliant so im very happy with that i was hoping azerbailjan would have got 2nd over iceland...i didnt rate the iceland song too high but again its the type of song i understand bein popular any one of tonight top 5 was far better than last years winner i think............im delighted crotaia didnt do great!! no im looking forward to the full results from the semi finals plus jury choices
May 16, 200916 yr Yes i'm 'talking $h!t' - I wasnt saying Norways win was fixed, but that many elements just highlight political voting.

As for Norway, down to personal opinion i guess, but imo the song is nothing great :/ Fantastic for Jade though :wud: Nothing political, neighbour voting will ALWAYS be a part of the voting in here. And plus Estonia is quite not the same block with Bosnia :heehee:
May 16, 200916 yr Corny, catchy and gimmicky with the violins – a typical Eurovision winner especially in the 90’s. I see you're an expert on everything.
May 16, 200916 yr I live one hour from Oslo :w00t: I live 3-4 hours, meh, I will still be going. I am so delighted for Alexander. :dance: Tusen takk alle sammen! Also congratulations to (my home country) the UK, 5th place is a fantastic result! :cheer:
May 16, 200916 yr You've also got to remember that countries in certain parts of the world have similar tastes. Our chart is similar to the Irish chart, so there's no reason why Bosnia's music taste isn't going to be similar to countries around it. If they send a fairly big Bosnian artist they're likely to be well known in that country and recieve points as a result....
