I hate only 12 points system. I remember when Russia and Turkey was fighting for the 1st place and nobody could tell the winner to the last voting.It was truly magic of ESC. Now it'll be boring and without emotions.

Yeah, 2003 was a three horse race between Turkey, Russia and Belgium with only a three points difference

1. Turkey - 167
2. Belgium - 165
3. Russia - 164

It was so exciting and unpredictable.

WTF



So sad

Of course she's mad, it's her own motherland and as a Crimean Tatar she must feel torn from it.

inb4 Spain flops hard again

[Jaspurr]

Rooting for Jamala tonight.

Also here for Georgia snatching a place in the Top 5. It's so left-field that it might work.

Never thought I'd say it, but it seems like Georgia will be the surprise of the year. That performance is simply amazingly staged and outstanding.

Y'all better vote in the Eurovision survivor

[KillingYourCareer]

Azerbaijan keeps complaining about how the Armenians "copy" their traditional music, yet they always send basic pop songs written by Swedes if they brought an Azerbaijani folk song maybe they'd do well.

[Legend E]

I really want Miracle to flop, I am sorry. I think it's the first time Azerbaijan truly sends a completely basic **** song

"Now"? Sis, the reason they've changed the system is to get a more exciting voting.

We would have really exciting votings in 2011-2012-2013 if they had only let the televotes count.

!!! they should just go back to televote, but Sweden won only thanks to the juries so of course they won't do it

[Paul McCutie]

i really want australia, czech republic or georgie to win... georgia would be the best, cause they seem so humble and it would be the biggest surprise...

is there someone from georgie who could tell me if they are famous there?

[alstrom]

All the pettyness in this thread. The new voting system was used in the melfest final and it was exciting eventhough we already knew who'd win. Don't bash it before you've seen it in action!

We've seen the rehearsal tho. There is a video a few pages ago. Maybe you should see it.

As I said if the televoting winner is not the overall winner it will be very anti-climatic and it is a big possibility this year.

I love how Russia has suddenly gained a million views since last night Not suspicious at all.
