I couldnt believe some of the songs i was hearing last night.Underwater divers from Montenegro singing rap and most of the songs sounded exactly the same.It took me a couple of minutes to determine whether they were singing in English or their national tongue!! :roll:
Anouk was like a breath of fresh air.She won't win it some crap song from Kutjestan will.

Sorry to have to say that my family voted it a very boring song :( I kept telling them it was good but they just wouldn't have it.

Congrats to Snoopysue!
I voted for the Netherlands. Glad Norway did not win and I am totally mystified about how Ukraine got that many votes

still too much politics in the voting, graham norton was caling the 8 10 and 12 point most of the time correctly before the country gave the result,

:shock: What are you implying Peterd? That the countries refrain from voting for the best song?
That is so cynical.You've spoilt my sunday now. :(

no i think overall the best song won what i hear of them but the eastern europeans vote was a lot of politics played even cyprus gave greece the 12 point again, if you could get a table of country votes for the last 5 years put them together would there be a pattern of votting me thinks yes for quite a few of them

I'm not convinced about this political argument. People just like the sort of music that they are used to hearing. So Cyprus likes Greek music. I can't see that many people think politically.

I thought he meant it, and now you have ruined it :cry: :cry:
Really, I think at least half the people vote based on the dress or lack of it.
People don't even bother to vote politically for a government so why they would for Eurovision is beyond me.
