  1. All 41 songs (without Azerbaijan and Italy) were better than winner and runner-up ;(

  2. yes, “running scared” was certainly not one of the strongest songs this year, and with only 221 it’s one of the “weakest” Eurovision winners. if you take a close look at their voting result (only 3 times 12 points, and only 4 times 10 points) you can easily see that they were nothing more but the lowest common denominator.

    i think azerbaijan could only win because turkey was not in the final, and many turkish people across europe voted for azerbaijan.

    and it’s a pity too because ell & nikki won’t stay long in the business as a duo, i bet they will split soon, they are no really a harmonic duo, they were only put together for the stage performance of this song.

  3. Azarbaijan was good…But i think that Sweden should win….<3

  4. The best song and the best artist was ERIC SAADE!!!! He was amazing and delightful. I still don’t understand why the winner stayed Azerbaijan with stupid song and two amators????? I just know why Italy was second… becouse it was “big” comeback after 13 years of abssence… ha ha ha ERIC YOU ARE THE KING OF EUROVISION 2011!!!!

  5. The best was Alexej Vorobjov!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Souperb!!!!!!!

  6. Its sad that this gay event now is gonna be in a homophobic country next year…

    Denmark was best..In all cetegories

  7. Congratulations Ell and Nikki Deserved Winners we Love you are brothers.
