From an outside perspective, this just didn’t translate and never went anywhere. A successful song will always have a point of view that won’t depend on the lyrics being understood. I feel like many people here expected Europe to get on board because it had a meaning and it was different from the previous years? There was no cultural element that you wouldn’t find anywhere else either. I’m sorry to be this blunt but this was just a mid song with a performance bordering on gimmicky but not committing to it. This rarely translates into points, especially this year when the favourites were a very diverse bunch in terms of genres and very televote friendly. I mean even Serbia and Croatia suffered this time and would’ve easily gotten 100+ any other year, for example.

Fun fact. This is the first time ever that a Semifinal opener went ahead to win the whole thing. First Semifinal winner that opened its Semi was Rybak in 2018 though.

Tatu?? LOL

That poor Swiss lesbian finishing 9th in both votes but 11th overall. :( Also, apparently a 3rd + an 8th gives you 2nd overall. Even if the country in question wasn’t a genocidal tyrant, it still would be ridiculous Juries need to get their shit together. I don’t remember them being so biased and predictable in years. For example, Greece <-> Cyprus and Croatia <-> Serbia was insane.

Hoping that the campaigning will not get even more severe now given this is 2nd place twice in a row now. Let’s not give them any ideas x

Let’s all not forget to thank @Qween ’s hubby for saving Eurovision.

Wow, 8 of my top 11 finished there in the end, with the rest not that far behind. Really fantastic result this year.

‘Biiitch’

Wow

Look mum 0 points.

Rip Eurovision.

f*** off poland.

Israhell is getting points from pretty much everyone so far. This is not going well.

10 points from Ukraine to Israel. That’s funny.

I miss the days when it started at 8pm CET. These interval acts are so blahhh. If it’s not a medley performed by Loreen then I’m not interested.

That’s a keeper.

As usual, obsessed with the top 10 rankings for UK pretty much across the board here Delusion.

It’s so difficult to rank my top 3 especially but my top 11 of the night looks something like this 01 Australia 02 Bulgaria 03 Finland 04 Denmark 05 Greece 06 Serbia 07 Moldova 08 Czechia 09 Croatia 10 Romania 11 Ukraine the rest are not that worth ranking really.

Not the f***ing AUDACITY of Austria using Serving c**t after giving 0 televotes to Malta last year.

Poland is praying for those number ones she be dropping (in a very religious polish way of course)

Moldova and Finland closing this final really strong x

This is going to be a very underwhelming show after Finland are done. Who was in charge of that running order ugh. Only Romania is worth tuning in for.

0 points from Germany and Austria incoming xx

Croatia slayed this as expected. They finally found the formula.

Bulgaria was insanely good. Such a full package. She needs to finish top 3.
