Best song won. Had a bit on Austria for top 5 too and public vote nearly jeopardised that.

Smile will be on the other side of Eurovision's face tomorrow when they discover every telephone vote cast for Israel reversed the charges

Really? A jews are tight with money joke?
Yes. A bit of light humour. Have you some point to make?
Careful now

The voting system is bigger joke than before. Poor song won it but then again most if not all songs were poor tonight.

Top quality songs this year. There were 8 worthy winners.

Wouldn't disagree with that, but the song that won it was along the same lines as Dustins effort some years ago.
Careful now

Italy's anti-war song was no match for the might of the Israeli chicken song.

Awful.song to win it. Rotten

Eurovision is so unbelievably sh1t tbh

It was just another sachrine ballad. It is total biased to say it was in any way remarkably better than the best.

The Eurovision so great if you have enough humour to take it in the right spirit. If you can't the question really is why were you watching it to begin with?

+1
No point trying better to send a joke entry seems to work every few years. Feel a bit sorry for the likes of Austria, Germany and Cyprus who made the effort and then some complete mess vomits up some random noises and wins. For the record Dustins tune was quite catchy.

Some of the songs this year were quite good with the German entrant being excellent in my opinion.  The winner though was very poor which says it all about Eurovision really

I found that the majority of songs sounded exactly like somebody else. Germany = Ed Sheeran for example.

I though the Czech song was relatively original and quirky and would have been my pick. I thought Germany would win it. I thought the UK's was awful altogether. Ireland's was as bland a ballad as you could get. Marty Whelan is beyond unbearable.

Marty is trying to much to be like Terry Wogan. Also he was totally lost in the scoring system!

Noticed that alright. I think he was looking to the right of each entrant were their totals were rather than to the left where the current scores were shown. He mustn't have been expecting to be on  :P
