Finland being robbed 3 times in 4 years is a big crime according to me

Tom is just so far ahead of the rest of the ESC YouTube scene and stands up for human rights. Goat

If the jury had given Romania enough points and less to Israel, we would have had the best split screen we ever had. Two returning countries and two from eastern Europe on the split screen

imagine the uk doing a "viva malta" song to fish for televote points and getting 11th in the maltese televote

Serbia only getting 4 points outside eastern europe (1 from france, 3 from finland) is what i consider the biggest crime

I'll never recover from Denmark going first. 😭

thank you! justice for Daniel

I also think that Romania should've been the runner-up instead of Israel. Not because of geopolitics, but the song itself is just better

Honourable mention for the highway robbery: Cyprus qualifying for the final despite a poor semi-final performance. At least they delivered a decent show in the final

My System from felicia was just not a tv friendly performance. It was too dark, didnt focus on her, and the face is a big communicator and wearing the mask just didnt help. I didnt remember the song at all. Then i heard it on spotify and loved the actual song....but i didnt remember it from the show cause the performance just didnt catch my attention. In regards to finland i think it was a eurovision super fan song. All ten people in my group that watched it either only watch the actual show (no pre stuff) or were totally new to eurovision...we all had it in our top ten but no one had it greater than 4th. So we didnt understand the hype the song was receiving when we heard that it was favored after the semi finals aired.

Justice for Czechia!

One of the crimes on my list is Italy getting 5th place with a snooze fest of a song.

I got traumatized from finding out the running order with Denmark in the 1st spot. That was the second most horrible moment of the season behind seeing Israel on the final split screen.

My top crime is how poorly rock and metal songs performed with the juries once again. My favourite of the year was Serbia, they had such amazing vocals and a really fun stage show, but because the amazing vocals were metal vocals and not opera vocals, they were paid dust by all juries except their neighbours.

I have such a soft spot for LMNC I was so sad he didn’t get any televote points

I believe Conchita has beef of some sort with the Austrian broadcaster, not Eurovision - they performed Rise Like a Phoenix at the Vienna Pride with JJ barely a month after the final

I’m still so upset they made Soren open the show! 7th is still amazing but come on!😂

🤗 all fine with Germany! 😉 My biggest crime was where Linda and Pete finished. Never understood how that could happen. ❤ 🇫🇮

I think those 4 jury criteria need to be reevaluated. Assuming they are weighted equally, I don't want vocal capacity to count for 25% of the score. That pretty much guarantees anyone who can do popera goes to the top. And I say that as a Code and Wasted Love fan. Maybe vocals and staging should be combined under a performance category, and the quality of the song itself should be emphasized somehow.

I truly believe that if you finish top 10 in both jury and televote, you should be wildcarded into the Grand Final. It's already four hours long, another three minutes plus one of the postcard will not impact it very much at all - plus we've had 27 song song contests in the past.
