  50. Jose (from Southern Spain)

    I did not know that these awards celebrate, but I am delighted that Eric has won in both categories. Eurovision I voted for him, but Spain just gave 5 points to Sweden. Eric should have won, is a great artist. Have you heard his new song?, it’s cool.

    I hope to nominate Eric for the MTV Europe Music Awards 2011 in the category of best Swedish artist.

  51. Roy van der Merwe

    Wonderful – very well done

  52. Anders (Sweden)

    OMG!!! Thank you Europe!!! I couldn’t vote for “Popular” or Eric, but i think he really deserves this 🙂

    and congratulation to the other winners, Lena is GORGEOUS, Jedward are funny and cool, great entertainment! ESC Radio ROCKS!!! 🙂

  53. Eric is the real winner of Eurovision 2011. I love his song, I love his voive and I love him. Congratulations Eric!!!

  54. Noncsi *Saade Fan*

    Yes! Eric deserved it! Congratulations!

  55. how can Jedward be the best group? I don’t get it. Blue should’ve won the best group award. A Friend In London was also good. But not Jedward, c’mon 😀 We should all vote for those who make good quality music…

  56. Good choise! Eric deserved it!!!!

  57. YES!
    I voted for alex a lot!
    love him

  58. Paradise Oskar <333 He's the best

  59. Андрей Осколков

    А я не совсем согласен. Жаль не удалось проголосовать, но я бы сделал так: “Лучшая песня 2011″1 – Швеция, 2 – Россия, 3 – Израиль. “Лучшая артистка 2011” 1 – Германия, 2 – Украина, 3 – Израиль, “Лучший артист 2011” 1 – Россия, 2 – Швеция, 3 – ???. Номинация “Лучшая группа 2011” 1 – Великобртания, 2 – Ирландия, 3 – ???. Вот так…
