Such A Annoying Winner!

in Eurovision Song Contest #1
I mean this pretty much shows everyone voted for who the person was and not the song.

The song was so average. It just reminded me off a shitty James Bond track. I personally feel everyone is saying a well known act should enter the Eurovison for the UK. Do I agree? Kind of, if a band like The Vamps entered with a good catchy song. We could do well as much as I hate boybands. The world love a boyband or let's enter a female dressed as a man with a average song and see how we do.

    That song was fantastic and sung to perfection. If she'd shaved the beard, I think it still would have won.

    I must admit I didn't get the "statement" the winner was supposed to be making. That's not to say I didn't think he/she didn't deserve to win, it was among the best entries this year.
    But I did feel kind of out of the loop with regards to all the love and admiration she appeared to be getting, even Graham seemed completely over the moon that she'd won, I've never seen him so enthusiastic.

    People the song was completely average. It sounded like a cheap rip off version of Skyfall. The song was good yes. But most of the songs were completely shit, this year was a shit year for songs. About 10 songs were better and more catchy than that song itself.

    I agree that it was the person people voted, not the song.

    Thank you. It was so obviously too because she had ALOT of hype before about her with the beard and being a drag artist. She wasn't really making a statement, don't even get me started on Russia and UKraine.

    I do wonder how well it would have done if it had been sung by Tom Neuwirth rather than his alter ego

    The song was good but there were a lot better performed on the night - Netherlands obviously.

    And the way everytime she got a 12 there was this over the top crying just turned me right off her. It just seemed over emotive and hyped.

    To be fair, Denmark's act and song was very boy-band like. They did badly.

    Denmarks was a poor Bruno Mars rip off, also they need to have the whole boyband look. They didn't.

    I would have preferred Holland to win as well. It was a well performed song.

    I hated all of the top rated songs and I am a regular and die hard fan - so angry right now and if I am honest I can see the beginning of the end for the contest. It has gone from one bad extreme to the other. We have gone from the block voting and Eastern Europe debate to now the Scandinavians locking up the contest and showing favourtism. I have had enough of it to be honest. >:(:(
