  1. I don’t think Norway should have gotten last place! The most boring song/performance was United Kingdom!

  2. I’m from northern ireland was glad to see ireland at least got more than uk even though jedward are mad and I agree I actually really liked norways song uk should have been last.

  3. When i saw the result i just went Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh Up.Awesome artist,voice and performance.Love u Loreen <3

  4. The Eurovision Song Contest is rigged. It’s a shame that songs like the Danish, the Latvian or the Hungarian songs got so few points. And stupid songs like the Russian grannies or bad/boring songs like the Serbian song got so many points. The Swedish song is a pretty mediocre song that would last a month or two in the discos…nothing more. It didn’t deserve to win the ESC. We’re not stupid…we know that it is all dirty politics. Which means that the former Yugoslavians will vote for themselves (now that they are several countries they get more votes), the former Russians the same, the Scandinavians too, etc.. So the music quality has gone down in favor of politics. It’s crap!!

  5. Oscar Lopez:
    You don’t think that everyone have different taste in music? Just because you like those countries entries it doesn’t mean that everyone else does.

    I liked Bulgarias entry but they didn’t even qualify but it’s for me to accept that. I’m not a soar looser that have to accuse the other countries of cheating. That is childish.
