I don’t understand why the UK so often does so badly.
Our entry was not going to win but deserved to finish low to mid table.

Well done, she deserved it, I voted for her!
Hard luck UK. He was clearly having a blast though, and you could tell everyone in the arena was with him.

It seems if we send good vocalists that sing ballads we get snubbed and told go outside the box. We go outside the box we get snubbed for not having good vocals.
At this point, why do we bother anymore. Id rather not have a chunk of my license fee go towards this, let the rest of Europe (and the middle east for some reason) figure out how to make it work without our sizable donation.

We got 1 point, only needed another 515 and we could have tied for first.

They dodged a bullet. The most generic of entries nearly won by a LOT due to the show voting being hijacked again. They got away with 6 withdrawals this time, would be far worse if that had gone the other way
The Bulgarian song was fun. It made me smile when I saw it.
Our entry was original but as we have come last with no audience votes for 4 years, you could send literally anyone and I suspect the result would be the same!

Can’t understand how Sweden scored so poorly – that was an absolute banger.
UK entry was pish.

It’s obvious when we really try and when we don’t.
See Sam Ryder vs this, and other years.

Im shocked that Finland flopped relative to expectations. To me that was perfect.
I had Bangaranga as my 3rd best of the night. Didnt expect the juries to love it so much

That performance at the end being unplanned, fair play to the Bulgarian performers because they basically made up some staging on the fly

Relieving to see massive tits beating war, maybe there’s still hope for us all

I liked the studio version of our song, it was nice to see us try something different for once. But I didn’t like the live performance tonight, I don’t think we deserved last, but definitely in that 2nd half of the table

Israel came second ffs. The whole thing is a joke. How people still take it seriously is beyond me.

Not surprised the uk one was singing about Einstein and pepperoni.
Half the song was just jibberish you couldn’t even understand I thought he was speaking another language

A big sigh of relief at the EBU after that. End of the contest if Israel won.

Eh we sent a novelty act for once rather than something boring like normal, I don’t get why people are complaining so much here.

What the fuck is going on with public voting for Israel? Is it bot farms or idiots? Second place with one of the worst songs of the year

It doesn’t really matter at the end of the day.
The UK wanted to send something different and LMNC performed a song that was true to himself and his style. That’s all they can do and that’s all they should do every year going forward

So is this all Eurovision is now?
Everyone just praying every year that a nation *actually in Europe* beats out Israel which will always have an insane advantage thanks to their blatant vote manipulation.
It won’t last forever. Israel will continue to come second year after year until eventually they don’t, and then the contest ends forever. It’s on borrowed time, all in service to Israel, of all nations.

I picked Bulgaria to win and for us to finish last (due to the song being absolutely rancid).
Yes I put a bet on. I’m actually a genius!
Bloody love Eurovision. Always good for a laugh and a few beers.

Anyone else hoped Europe united behind Bulgaria at the end?

Thank God Israel came second. That was squeaky bum time at the end.

I thought that, based on the melody of the song, the UK would do ok. But the quality of his vocals in the live performance weren’t- I’m afraid- perfect.

Israel didn’t win, that’s a win.
The amount they spend on propaganda on this shit and still can’t win is hilarious.

I know Europe hates us but last place is a piss take, at least it went down well in the room and our boy will be partying with the Germans and Belgians in the Zero Club

Bulgaria is days away from having a nuclear weapon…..

Uk has serious talent in their musical exports, they don’t need to prove anything for Eurovision
Atrixer on
Of course Eurovision has always and will always be heavily politically influenced, however good and/or fun songs still do really well. The UK continues to do terribly by sending incredibly weak or niche songs because the BBC pannel is full of yes men circle jerking themselves.
One of the biggest music industries worldwide and incredible range of talented artists, producers and writers, and so on, but we never showcase it. Part of the problem is arrogance, many in the BBC and music industry think themselves above the competition or are afraid of taking it seriously and losing.
