Just wanna say thanks to the people who joined in watching the results live. It was an awesome time.
Watching the votes come in on the last day was really nerve-racking. The lead constantly kept changing, and the scores were really close up among the top. Based on the semifinals results, I couldn’t have predicted any of this, which really made for an exciting results show score-wise. The last time a winner scored under 200 points was all the way back in March 2017, 23 editions ago! And that was with much less countries voting.
Well... not much to say about this really. It’s the inevitable “AQ gets last place” entry. It’s basic and outdated musically.
These shouldn’t have been in the final to begin with, and it shows with their really low placings.
I could also lump this with the three countries I mentioned above, but this is just a little bit better, but it’s the vastly inferior Latin bop compared to Chile.
Aww… this is my
, so I find it an underrated bop, but I think it’s just my Asian bias showing.
I’m surprised it did this badly. Either because of the AQ status or the waning of hype for Eleni in general that probably led to this placing 24th.
Good songs. Their placings I’m indifferent to. They deserved to qualify at least, so it’s fine.
It’s a good host entry, but IMO one of Coeur’s less decent songs.
It’s nice and wholesome, but not a standout. Should’ve placed in the top half at least.
VERY underrated. I gave this
in the hopes it would finish in the top 10, but based on how it barely qualified in the semis, it wasn’t meant to be.
Hot song. I have no problem with it placing 16th.
Minus the joiking, a painfully average follow-up to “Spirit in the Sky.” How funny that it has an average placing?
My
is a bit underrated. It’s mellow yet catchy at the same time. Should’ve been in the top 10.
Definitely one of the stronger Serbian entries in recent memory, albeit a little overrated IMO. However, 13th isn’t something to laugh at. Well done!
Should’ve been in the top 10. You were my
. It’s a bop even my IRL friend who is into K-pop has been obsessing over.
Super overrated. I don’t find it special enough to place 11th with 140 points at all.
Cami is officially the 10th place queen.
I’m not mad at this placing in the top 10 since it’s a unique and strong entry in relation to the rest of the field. Congrats!
My
!
China hasn’t been in the top 10 in three years (I think?), and to do it with such a great song is excellent. One of my favorite entries this year so far.
It was certainly a contender for the win. Though not my personal winner as I gave this
, it deserved to do this well. And congrats, Luca! This is your first top 10 with USA I think. USA is overdue for a win, so I hope it comes soon.
It’s Ukraine’s return to glory! I think you lucked with Kazaky’s surprise comeback because the hype was there. Not mad at this placing 7th. Congrats.
Well, that was quite a turnaround. Placing 19th in first part of voting, then getting the most points in the second part. Very Norway ESC 2019.
Me giving this
definitely helped. Very pleased to see a good rock/metal entry like this place this high at the end.
The margin between 1st and 5th is an insane 20 points, and between 2nd and 5th? Only 7! It was ridiculously close. Anyone of the top 5 could’ve easily won had tastes been different among voters.
You thought you were gonna be in the top 3? Access denied! Kidding aside, this is would have been deserving to be in the top 3, but top 5 is just as satisfactory. Russia is another one of those countries that I think is overdue for a win.
My
and personal winner! It’s Slovenia’s best entry yet, and it’s the one time I think a Slovenian entry really deserved to be in the top 3 and AQ. Regardless, congrats on another great placing.
Slovenia is probably the best-performing Balkan state at the moment, at least this year, despite inconsistent results.
My
, but would’ve been such a deserving winner after Portugal’s long turbulent history with one dedicated user in Ealex. However, 3rd place is already remarkable and not what I envisioned Portugal finishing in especially considering it placed 8th in its semi and didn’t receive any ROTW points then. Congratulations on probably finally AQ-ing for the next edition!
See, I’m actually indifferent to this song, but I would have been excited to see a country winning for the first time (which Jamaica, Portugal, Slovenia, and Russia could’ve done), but there just had to be a really good entry to block that from happening.
Congrats on the AQ… despite the strike.
Congratulations, William! Can’t believe
this Northern Irish artist that could technically mean it’s by UK won for a record fifth time Ireland won again, and it was only two editions since it last won.
I couldn’t help but give it
though. It’s such a uniquely dark and original track. Owsey is the first male solo artist to win since Loïc Nottet back in November 2016 (Ed. #09 - that’s 27 editions!). Additionally, you are now tied with Australia’s user for with the most wins by a single user. So are we going to Cork? Millstreet? Enya’s castle? Let me know if you want NNMC to be in Ireland again.
