| There isn't a Eurovision topic, what! I'm not sure how interested Europeans/Australians on MAL are about this but I'm opening a thread anyway. My favorites are Hungary (can't not love one metal song on ESC.... and I'm biased because I love Hungary in general) Denmark (can't not love viking-pirates) Ukraine (can't not love burning stairs) Serbia (my own country and it has these very specific etno parts which may not be for everyone but it gave me goosebumps) ...even Moldavia because it makes a good shitshow. Greece was robbed IMO. I don't think I like Isreal, and Lithuania is just terribli. Cyprus is most likely to win I think and ... mehhh it's ok but too generic. Idk. Discus pls! |

| Isn't Eurovision that dick contest where every country votes for nations to please its own immigrated populations? France voting for Armenia adn Germany voting for Turkey again this year, I called it. |
 |
| People who emigrated vote for their home country usually, yeah. But that's just 50% of the votes or something like that, the rest is from juries of each country. In the past few years they are trying to please the minorities though and it comes off as too forced and actual good songs get robbed but whatever! It's fun to watch! Edit: Armenia and Turkey didn't qualify for the final so no. |
|
| Budapest 2019 Hungary tore the place down. At first I was a bit skeptical, but I genuinely loved that. Was not expecting a breakdown on ESC at all lmao I missed the first night so I can't really speak about the others, but from what I caught a glimpse of, Germany is really good too. |

| YAY EUROVISION POST This final sounds SO GREAT SO FAR. I'm a pop-music and uptempo obsessed so I couldn't be happier. Also my top 5 (<3 SLOVENIA <3, Israel, Ukraine, Cyprus and Moldova) is intact, while last year my fave didn't qualify. Cyprus being the favorite atm makes me so happy because I miss my pop diva dominated eurovision back in 2003-2005 years + I love the song + the performance is yeah yeah fire. that being said, i wouldn't mind AT ALL if hungary pulls off a Lordi 2.0 and wins the whole thing. i don't think they will win because of the juries (remember there weren't juries back in 2006), but i expect a top 5 in televote, maybe even top 3 like poland in 2016. switzerland and malta should be there instead of lithuania and australia though. I would have loved to see my brazilian girl Laura in the finals, but she didn't do very well in the semis, unfortunately. my biggest surprises this year were greece not qualifying (i know the staging wasn't good but stil..............) and serbia qualifying (i adore the song, it's my second favourite from the country and i never expected it to go through. it was a pleasure) since i'm not european i can't vote, so good luck to you all tomorrow! I'd love to see more eurovision fans right here in MAL. |

Ah, the "yeah, yeah fire" meme. XD She even find out the eurofans made a meme out of that. She posted this on her twitter account; it's hilarious. I SAW THIS LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO I also love the video editing salvador speech to "music is fire" |
|
| The dude from Ukraine is so cute aah My favorites are Israel, Hungary, Cyprus & Finland. Also lowkey rooting for Finland just so I can go watch it live next year :^) |
 |
| Eurovision still exists? Damn. The last time i've heard of it was more than 10 years ago. |
 |
| I don't watch Eurovision but it would be nice if my country would win. |

| CONGRATS FOR NETTA!!!!! It was my #2 song-wise, but considering song + performance, Cyprus should have won. Anyway, I'd have loved the result either way (plus i won't have to worry about "real music" speech in eurovision anymore!!!!!!!!!) i was kinda surprised by the results though? i would never expect to see AUSTRIA that high. Also Lea, Mélovin and AWS (btw they did a dbz pose where are their mal accounts) were robbed and screw that man who invaded surie's performance |
|
| I'm low-key irritated that Israel won, I was expecting it due to the somewhat powerful theme but that doesn't change the fact I really disliked the song. Still, can't help but to congratulate Netta on her wonderful performance. My favourite song was for me was Germany's, I found it to be completely sweet and very emotional. I was very upset that I couldn't watch it live due to the tickets being so expensive, I feel like I missed the oportunity of a life time... Also, can we just apreciate Salvador Sobral's performance at the end of the show? Sorry, sorry. I'm just in love with that boy. |
 |
| Israel won. Israel. Literally one of the most politically controversial countries in the world.. Netta has a good voice but I find the song incredibly annoying and stupid, after few listens, it gets terrible and it's forgettable. IMO, Italy, Moldova and Germany deserved better. It's getting worse and worse every year. Eurovision has lost what it was meant to be about and that's sad. |

SeidouTZ said: Also i got ask but the hell was so appealing about that Sweden song to get so upvoted by the juries? sweden has been in juries' top 5 every year since 2012 (with the exception of 2016) the reason is basically "it's from sweden" |

Never really notice it to much up until now. And to their credit i thought the 2015 sweden song "Heroes" was good as well as the the one from last year "I Can't Go On". This one however i really fail to see why the juries rank it so highly. i checked at wikipedia besides 2010 when it was the only time sweden didn't qualify, the positions this decade were: - 2011: jury 9th, tele 2nd, overall 3rd - 2012: 1st in all of them - 2013: jury 3rd, tele 18th, overall 14th - 2014: jury 2nd, tele 4th, overall 3rd - 2015: jury 1st, tele 3rd, overall 1st - 2016: jury 9th, tele 6th, overall 5th - 2017: jury 3rd, tele 8th, overall 5th - 2018: jury 2nd, tele 23rd (lmao), overall 7th ngl that out of these songs, the only one i really dislike is 2016's (i'm not a fan of 2014's tho). this year's song is middle of the road for me, yet i'm still shocked at how badly it was on televote |
|
| Well, at least Isreal is gonna host it in 2019, but what are they going to do the social and political problems they faced such as terrorism, etc. (sorry of my poor English) |
 |
| I can see the comments as well. |

| I think I'm /eurovisioned out at this point... I just can't take any more of the generic songiness of it all. |
| Well that was disappointing. I've re-listened to every participating song and I can safely say that Israel is literally the worst. She has a good voice, but the song is absolutely terrible. I don't get how the hell did vampire boi turn up last before televoting, his song and performance was better than the majority at least. |

The video reached more than 200K dislikes in just two days and they keep on growing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84LBjXaeKk4 Comments are disabled for this video. So Stunning and Brave of them. I can also see the comments. It's probably america-blocked |

I think US blocked the comment on YT because of hate Relationship between two the countries have. |
