I only ever watch the voting as the songs are too painful.

Madonna is a few sanwiches short of a picnic. 

Marty is a gobsh*te.

I was hoping the nordie Macedonians would win...she seemed like a sound person.

Why would anyone pay attention to what Greece want? Confused

They did qualify. We know them as "Greece". 

Holland have won it for the 5th time. They didn't win it in 1979, but still hosted it in 1980 when Johnny Logan won. They usually dont qualify from  the semis, so it's a shock that they won this year. You would have expected Sweden to win it, as the jury winner usually scores one of the highest televotes. SVT rarely sends crap to Eurovision. 

Over the past 10 years, Germany, Norway, Austria, Denmark and Portugal of the "Western" nations have won it. Sweden have won it twice, and almost equalled our record this year. 

How do RTE explain that?

Preview


Ireland finished 18th of 18 countries in the semi final. We got 3 televotes from the Brits and 13 jury votes from Moldova and Italy. Holland won the semi final and the final. 

Yet again, the Irish song suffered from no promotion, no marketing, and an unknown performer with limited experience of major events. Her main experience to date, is playing to a bunch of punters under the influence of the devil's buttermilk at weddings and pubs in the middle of nowhere. A different world to the global superstars who put everything into winning the contest not just this year, but every year. 

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
