Well deserved, Dami Im had the best vocal range of any of the contestants. Ukraine was nice and all, but it felt it was more like crying and singing combined.

Social media storm is probably angry Russians
As crap as Ukraine was, Russia was hardly good either. Animated effects with an absolutely crap singer

Nope, that's why I mentioned "worldwide" in my first post.

So it's that time of year again for another bit of ex-communist backslapping, Russia bashing and homosexual propoganda from somewhere in Eastern Europe. And apparently theres some singing involved too.

At least we'll finish higher than the Irish Republic this year! ;)

Some X-Factor reject called Lucie Jones who got beaten by Jedward. Yes I know, don't hold your breath. The song isn't bad but it just feels like it its building but never reaches the crescendo that it needed to to be good. Mind you it was written by one of the best Eurovision winners of recent times, that Danish lady so it may do better than we think.

Pretty much this. Another thing i used to enjoy ruined by crazed "liberals". Getting close to being unwatchable + the songs are f***ing terrible

"Celebrate diversity" is the tagline for this year's event.

That sounds very dodgy, left-leaning and PC. Which suggests there may be some more political rubbish here.
