Sweden are really good and if they won, one couldn't complain.

Sweden is bland, I think Ireland's record is safe for one more year.

Australia has a good singer but I didn't like this song the first time I heard it.

Sweden has the same problem as quite a few entries this year: excellent singer, mediocre song.

The Tories will privatise Channel 4 and emasculate the BBC to keep the others in line. So Scotland will get top 5 if they go bagpipes and Pernicious Albion will have left the EBU

The script at ESC is usually bad but this takes the figroll.

The issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution.
The Entryism process: 1) Demand access; 2) Demand accommodation; 3) Demand a seat at the table; 4) Demand to run the table; 5) Demand to run the institution; 6) Run the institution to produce more activists and policy until they run it into the ground.

Agreed.
The Swedish girl is a terrific singer but there's something missing from the song.

Them being in it at all is the icing on the cake of what a farce this all is.

These operatic type songs with good singers do well but haven't won. Suppose Conchita.

I don’t object to the mask but what’s with the swan feathers? Symbolism?

I wasn't too in love with the Swedish song at first, but it kept getting a bit better and better and the final chorus did sound genuinely powerful. Loved how her vocals sounded crackly and raw.
