      Do not think so. Why shouldn't someone vote for their favorite? In my opinion, a lot of people liked San Marino's song but they had other favorites that they voted for. This year was just a strong year, Senhit would have done better with this song in other years. The same with many semi finalists.

    As an Irish man I think Ireland coming last was completely deserved. Whilst the song is okay her vocals are weak and the staging was horrible. I understand they were trying to do something different but it was so dark and looked amateur. There was a massive stage with amazing lights that they could have used. It’s a song about coming home which should be happy and bright and colourful. She was completely out of breadth at the end of the song. You can’t send a less than strong vocalists and have her running all over the place. Sorry but it was a big no no and that’s why it failed.

    The fact that no one outside of my immediate circle of friends is talking about the atrociousness of the lyrics to El Diablo... is a crime. A crime against the Spanish language. "Ta-taco tamale, yeah that's my mood" and "mama-mamacita, tell me what you do" make me want to depart my body in embarrassment. And the rap break in the middle of the song is so cringeworthy, pls: "droppin' our lashes on the floor" - whut? I think Elena's a good performer and the song is an earworm, but I can't get past the lyrical awkwardness and seeing it constantly hyped up makes me so upset 😂

    imo san marino and malta both flopped due to overhype/ being classic 'loved by the fans but not the general public' entries. as someone who watched the songs for the first time on the night, i was underwhelmed by both of them. especially with malta- after months of them being favourites i just found myself saying 'is that IT?' with their song.

    I don't think four countries getting zero is a crime so much as it is a 'scandal' that people have fun talking about. The way Eurovision works is that it's a tough scoring system. You can be everybody in the world's 11th favourite song and get no points because you need to be in the top 10 to get any points at all. It's just the way it works. Getting zero points doesn't mean you were a horrible song or that you 'deserved' zero points. It just means the way things worked out you didn't end up in any country's top ten. You could have been in the middle, not necessarily dead last with every country.

      I agree, even though Destiny, Manizha and the fact that someone got a feature from Flo Rida did at least ensure rnb and Hip Hop were well represented and compensated for the fact that Athena had to spend her birthday watching at home rather than performing a new song to expand on her style. I did a 3 part drawing that she reposted on her stories where the first 2 were of my idea for the staging of Chains On You (no props but LOTS of intensity) and the 3rd is her getting messages from 2020/21 acts I wish she was friends with as well as the Flo.

      @@EurovisionSlovenia true, and it’s obvious that the undertakings that would be needed for a singer writer to send an entry with a large intensity, tight knit choreo (my 3 part drawing of how I’d have staged Chains On You, which she reposted, ended with Athena, in high heels in Armenian flag colours, being given a cheerleader lift by her dancers, which were 2 men very similarly dressed to DE and 2 women with similar jackets and colour scheme) and plenty of need for rehearsals to prevent vocal slips, could not be done in the needed manner. However, it is upsetting because I spent 10 months emotionally investing strongly in Athena and getting her promoted outside the fandom, and the final day was her birthday (plus Netherlands votes for Armenia more than Italy and few of the 26 fared better than they’d have done in 2020 - only Switzerland, Greece, Ukraine, Moldova, and San Marino - the latter due to featuring a pop rap icon - did, though several others fared much the same as 2020.

    I'm surprised that you didn't discuss Malta more. It was the bookies' favorite for months before the contest and it ended up flopping so hard in the televote. Occidentali's Karma was considered a huge flop back in 2017 for less. And the fact that she'd manage to win her semi (which wasn't an easy one) makes the whole thing even weirder like what went so wrong in the gf? I knew she wouldn't win because it wasn't a pop year and let's be honest "Je me casse" felt a little too similar to "Toy" at times but the televote result was undeserved imo.

    I just love the way the debate on the french jury disappeared the second Ireland was mentionned hahaha
    I agree with Deban on this one : French jury not giving any point to Italy or Malta is not a crime ! As Deban said, the french televoters did not give Malta any point, and the juries ranked Italy 11th, so it's not that HUGE of a discrepency, especially knowing that the juries oftenly do not like rock songs ! (And btw, the UK jury did not give point to Italy or Malta either, and no one's saying it's a crime sooooo)
    It's good to see you both back in the same room kikiing about eurovision

    The whole "Did he do drugs?" thing just pissed me off. At first, I thought it was just a joke, but it grew and became a real thing. Even big media outlets went along and wrote about it. And the thing is....it didn't even effing look like he did drugs!
    It's sad to see papers and other places talk about it as if it was a real thing. Just proves that media can sometimes be pure garbage.

      I actually disagree. Even in the Semis San Marino didn’t do well. What killed it were the 300 female pop songs that came before it. Honestly, the fans overrated the song because San Marino’s an underdog and people love rooting for underdogs but if it were to be Albania or Latvia’s entry, Adrenalina would be easily forgotten.

  • @TheFreeGreenChannel
    @TheFreeGreenChannel Před 2 lety +16

    I think the system is fair enough. So you have 26 acts and only 10 of them can get points from each country. Of course only the 10 that people consider the best can get points. This year most of the public votes were for Italy, Ukraine, Finland... just imagine (more than 200 points for each of them) that means that they were included in almost all of top 10's. If countries didn't get any points they weren't memorable enough or not catchy enough to rich public top 10. It's simple. Let's give all the 39 acts a winning trophy cause it's sad when you don't win and allow all of them take part in the final, cause it's so sad when you can't perform on the final night. That's the competition and that's why it's interesting to watch and to participate. I'm sure the contestants can accept getting 0 points. It's ok, but to get 1-5 points isn't much better.
    Other options, like to give points from 1 to 26 from each country or to give the amount of points equal to the percentage of the public votes looks difficult and the amount of points is going to be redicilous though it's going to be more fair.

    Regarding the zero points issue: I know that the voting with points from 1 to 8, 10 and 12 are traditional but that came out of the necessity to make sure that there is only one winner and not four like in 1969. But back there were fewer than 20 contestants. Now there are about 40 and still about 25 in the Grand Finale. This means that 15 countries out of 25 won't get any points from the country that's voting (at least either in the jury or in the public vote). The juries should be allowed to also award the nine and 11 points. Hence, about half of the competing countries would get points by the country that's voting.

    Yes! Totally agree about Australia. It was a totally a crime. I don’t understand how we can our largest overseas team to the Olympics and we can’t send a much smaller team to Eurovision?!
    I can understand why, SBS who got a risk assessment done by someone independent decided that it was too much of risk.
    But how they showed Australia on tv vs Iceland who couldn’t perform either, very obvious that it was a live on tape. Like they cut away to show the screen with Australia’s performance while Iceland they cut to the audience in the end so it looked seem less.

Like for those people who don’t follow Eurovision content in the lead up it made it quite obvious that Australia wasn’t there in person, which I think played a part in why we had our worst result to date. Like I think it might be received differently if Montaigne was there in person (also if the first video of the song wasn’t the Mardi Gras performance)
