hey! I was just about to start a thread about this. Damn! It horrifies me that Sweden won. I'm meen how bad taste does our fellow Europeans have? It's "Dansbands" music for Christ sake! Worse than Country! I have to admit though that I didn't hear the rest of the songs. It's to boring...

Germany wasn't a bad song... I think the dangers with phone voting is that Juries tend to vote for the good songs, while phone votes tend to be "Sympathy" votes, ie. Germany and Turkey exchanging 12s, Croatia and Bosnia, etc. (Surprisingly Poland didn't give any points at all to Lithuania. Why? It used to be part of poland before WWII...) |

"Surprisingly Poland didn't give any points at all to Lithuania. Why? It used to be part of poland before WWII" Yeah, right - the bastards annexed Vilnius and fought a war over that until we were annexed completely by USSR. No voluntary common state with Poland in XX century. Nope. But it is now one of our best friends and I wonder why they didn�t vote for that stupid babe of ours. Oh well. |

They're all crap. Never have I come across a song in Eurovision that is at all good. |
