Eurovision Song Contest 2015
- Thread starter JRS
- Start date
I though the finale would turn out to be boring, cause so many slower songs involved..but I am happy to say it turned out great, I really enjoyed the whole show a lot
I still do not like the three women that were doing the hosting on stage, they were very bland and even managed to drag down the atmosphere in places. Conchita was again great, both in hosting duty as well as performing couple of songs.
Plus ESC has received the Guinness World Record for now becoming the longest running annual TV music contest in the World!
Congratulations to Sweden for winning the ESC 2015!
Not that is was a surprise at all, though. I think it is an okay song, not my personal favorite however( I gave it three stars of out of five on my personal review).
I was really happy that Russia came second
They had really good song year and Polina is a fine singer. I did not like the booing though, honestly speaking it only offends the artists of the country, creates a bad atmosphere..and wont change any Putins politics( and if booing in ESC would really change the World, I think Palestine would be free already and so forth..)
I also liked much Albania, Serbia and Slovenia in the final. Romania had also good song too and I must say I liked the live performance of Spain, too.
Italy was nicely third. I did not care much for this, I foud their live performance more bland than I expected.
In overall when you look at the Top 10..I would say that music won this year, for the most part( I would say differently if that crap that was Lithuania would have won).
I also read from online that both Czech and apparently Finland too would have gone to the final if you count just the televoting from the public. It does seem that juries shot both of them down pretty harshly.
The professional juries are both blessing and a curse, they do serve as sort of an quality control but also often stomp on the public opinion. I am sure this will be topic of conversation among ESC fans for sometime to come.
Next year we will compete in Sweden again.
Thank you Austria for the good show and all my best to the fellow Eurovision fans!

As I have just said in TNZ thought everyone was a bit bland this year, hope we see a bit more of this next year.
