In fourth, it's me.
Thank you to everyone for their votes, I was surprised that this song still hadn't been taken by last Sunday, would have been a worthy winner this year, just as Jamala was. I do appreciate a bit of kitchen sink staging.4th: Sergey Lazarev - You Are The Only One (Russia 2016) 76 points avb 12 10 brb, thengp12 8 Saturn, ESC Ross 7 Only_You, Lisa.B, weedydiamond 6 big bro geek 5 Jaccobabe 4 3 phill363, steeleuro_wolf 2 portugal 1 |

Probably still Poli-mania I imagine.
Although I'd be happy with Lady Gagarina too.

In second place it's Lady Gaga with her song A Million Horses. This held the lead at a couple of stages in the voting, but was eventually pipped at the post.

ESC Best Group Ever
Welcome one and all to the competition to decide which is the best group ever in Eurovision. We are mercifully devoid of boybands, but one approached me the other day, begging to be in the show, perhaps the opening number, even for appearance fee of a paltry Ł100. So I took their money, and here they are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1dXMWWq6y8 Here is the actual list, a fine selection of recent and older Eurovision songs. The order is entirely random, except for ABBA in the pimp slot, of course. Enjoy. Finland 2014 - Softengine - Something Better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FDWaFfo1CU Serbia and Montenegro 2005 - No Name - Zauvijek Moja https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eB1Bn8bv6Uk Finland 2006 - Lordi Hard Rock Hallelujah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAh9NRGNhUU Spain 1973 - Mocedades - Eres tú https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKV2JfR3RU4 Turkey 2010 - mAnga - We Could be the Same https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB_GnnhNz-8 UK 1997 Katrina and the Waves Love Shine a Light https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8oTtSTRdSw Latvia 2006 Cosmos I Hear Your Heart https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_pDAxEtt7g Norway 2005 Wigwam In My Dreams https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeY_S3hk1PA Germany 1985 Wind - Für alle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mib4YZt8mcg Switzerland 1977 - Pepe Lienhard Band - Swiss Lady https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdD2ljNVui0 Russia 2007 Serebro Song 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVPez6Zvr8g Romania 2012 - Mandinga Zaleilah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3ruy639kTQ UK 1981 - Bucks Fizz - Making Your Mind Up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boEph_ic-NM Germany 1994 - MeKaDo - Wir geben 'ne Party https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ztx0b1K1Y8Y Bosnia & Herzegovina 2009 Regina Bistra Voda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcRWjoEkzMk Moldova 2011 - Zdob si Zdub - So Lucky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHAY_OVN_gY Bosnia Herzegovina 2005 - Feminnem - Call Me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elPI-5JZCws Germany 1979 - Dschinghis Khan - Dschinghis Khan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAEUrp2V4ss Portugal 1989 Da Vinci - Conquistador https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RirKgfn4WwA Sweden 1974 ABBA - Waterloo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FsVeMz1F5c PlayList https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FDW...srS_bbyFlpXZkl Votes to me please by 5pm Sunday December 4. |

She did?!
Great!That "Best song of last 5 years" was already a hoax (to me) as, like I said, it was missing most of the best songs, but then you put the two Polis as front runners?! I'm shocked...But to cheer me up, now I have the "Best ESC band" playlist , which compared to the above mentioned is pure gold

Nothing was stopping you from entering something. When there's only about a dozen or so FMs participating what do you expect?
![]() If I was I'd definitely have entered, and the moment I got back I did enter, in the "best band" one... Talking of that, OMG, I don't think I've ever come across a playlist like that!! Practically every song is a favourite... (Well, apart from Cosmos, the oldie Swiss song, Serebro and a few others ) Now in Eres Tu, what a classic!!
