Favourite ballad:- Russia - Million voices (of course they have to be very careful not to get two men together in video because they will get arrested for promoting homosexuality according to Putin's gay propoganda laws :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:.... but two women is ok, will not end you up in jail. Great song never the less.

You were up way too late, Maleth!:)

I like Belgium's song....sort of "Lorde" like, and more "depth" than most of these songs. I really like the U.K. entry too. Too bad they didn't do better.

I'm surprised that Il Volo went that far...not in the same mold as most of these songs. It wasn't hard to be the most talented, however, because unfortunately most of these people can't sing! At least the Swedish singer was nice to look at, though. :grin:

I know I know....But just thought I would complete this thread with the news :). Belgium was my favorite and did not fair bad (5th I think). Anouk from Netherlands was my favorite last year and ended same position. We all thought grande amore would do well as they gave a good performance and sounded good too. Russia was in the lead for a long while but results changed with the last 10 countries i think. Well its just a show, lots of gossip and enjoyed it too :)

In general I always like my neighbor :p country Estonian songs. Especially when in Estonian, one of the most beautiful languages in Europe and World. To my ear.

I presume different regions have different musical preferences too, it could be a reason why neighbors vote for each other. However there are a number of songs that seem to appeal across the board.

yes, I believe that is big part of it. In addition, especially in countries that used to be one country, people often already know musicians that compete for neighboring countries.
Another aspect is national majorities and immigrants that tend to vote for their country of origin because of reasons above but also as a way to feel and express patriotic feelings.
