What country do you think will win? What country gets the 25th place? What country/countries do you give your votes to?
Discuss the final!

Well I think the winner will be between Sweden, Estonia, Hungary, UK & France. As for who will come last I think possibly, Moldova or Ukraine. I hope that Kati (Hungary) has managed to overcome her nerves and delivers a perfect vocal tonight like she has at her rehearsals.

You are missing Azerbaijan. If they repeat that performance they are surely in the top3 fighting for the lead. I'll decide my votes later (I'll try to vote for only 2 countries this year). I hope Germany does well too

I'm not going to vote, because it isn't so easy to live on 110 dollar/month if you want to do everything.
But if I would vote, I would choose Germany or Russia. Russia have a very catchy song.

I will make a vote for Russia for you Sweden (what is your real name btw) if you'd like. I'll be voting for Hungary tonight, more than once as I did in the Semi Final.

I probably won't vote, but my favs are Estonia, Hungary, Denmark, Russia, Sweden and Greece.
24th and 25th places are taken by Ukraine and Moldova.

45 minutes left now!

Oh, just waiting.

I'm so excited about Eurovision this year

Edit: IT STARTED!

Sorry to say this, but: The rapper totally destroys Greece's song. Would be pretty good if the number had no rapper.

Take France from the favourites, what an awful performance! I just couldn't listen to the instrumental, only his voice.

Ireland, Sweden and Estonia were the best until now!!!!!

EDIT: GERMANY TO THE TOP, NOW!!!!!

NO WAY!!!! Germany to the bottom as soon as possible (the song of course)

Btw I managed to vote for my favorites from my job so I can see who will be the winner:)

You haven't seen the performance, have you? She showed everyone what an awesome performance is.

Voted for Germany, Estonia and Georgia.

Who's the winner? When will we know? AGH! I can't watch it and I'm clueless about times!

I saw she was damn hot
But no matter how good a performance is.... the song is what counts.

And the song is very good too xD

Not really but may the best win

I don't believe that Germany wins this year, but it is a good song.

The best part is starting, the voting cast.

I love this part

Sweden and Azerbaijan are taking off. Not bad

it's political again

Damn, no ESC in the Nürburgring (or yes?)

How is italy so high? :O

zore_riot wrote:Sweden and Azerbaijan are taking off. Not bad

I cannot really see what so good about Azerbaijan this year. It's other countries that should go before them.

+1
I don't want it to win

neither do I. the song wasn't special at all.

They had an irreprehensible performance, very passionate which conquered the people and the juries votes. Easy

no sweetie. what decided again was politics.

Well.. congratz to Azerbaijan. Fun for them to win.

Think that some other countries could go before them. Preferably Sweden but like Germany or something.

S*it you're so right

BTW i think we are only country who give 12 point on UK or i wrong

TinaCZ wrote:no sweetie. what decided again was politics.

I don't think that politics did enough, I really don't but well, let's wait for the separate votes to be published by Eurovision website

Ok, so Azerbaijan won. Congrats!
The truth is that I didn't thought they would win when I was watching the show. It's kind of a disappointing result to me

katastrofi!!!!!!!!!!! this results are fake, aren;t they??! i can't believe it!! I don't wanna hear that shitty song all year long on radio!! Estonia... Hungary... Russia... what the f..?

Thank you all for the third place anyhow, thank you Eric Saade to do us this favor and not embarrass us like some people did the last years! (Hrm.. 2010.. buh)

Yep, same here. Was a real "chock" for me actually. Thought they would come like.. 10-20th place.

they wasn't the best for sure. But hey...that's how luck is:)

Hopefully (for me) the song won't be broadcast on Spanish radios never

Are the result going to be published on a esc-site with separated votes for jury/phonevotes?

They always are, broken down by countries. IN the last two years, both countries would win by televote and jury vote but would get more points if it was only televote

I really want to say that to, on the swedish radios. But sadly that song is going to play on the radios a long time further.

I wish ours would play! It's so stupid to see how the ESC songs are never a hit here.

Curious fact, for the first time since 2003 or so, my country gave high points to the winner

In Sweden all of the winner in ESC have a big chance to be a summerhit. Almost everyone be it, would I say.

I'd hate to be in sweden back in 2008

It was worse in 2009 and 2010.
2008 = 18th (Charlotte Perelli - Hero)
2009 = 21th (Malena Ernman - La voix)
2010 = Not in the final (Anna Bergendahl - This is my life)
2011 = 3rd (Eric Saade - Popular)
