Australia was very Kate Bush. UK singer did very well. The idiots who pushed that dire song need a firing squad.

Madonna has a good ear and the space reggae was fine. Before that not so much.
Fuck Israel, respect to Iceland.
Britain puts in terrible song.
Britain comes last.
Certain groups of the British (well mostly English) public: See this is proof we're better than europe and they just hate us and using politics.
The one with the weirdest sexual orientation, obviously, need to push that ideology.
(music has been shit, it doesn't even matter)
Well, the contestants were boring as always, typical radio running forgettable pop songs with the "cool" opera/metal/traditional exception. The score also had little surprises, eastern europeans countries voting mutually and no sympathy votes for UK or Germany.
But Madonna, ah well, sometimes it's better to leave with some dignity. The new song was not so bad actually, but not really my style. But you can count the times she actually hit the right notes for her "like a prayer" on two hands. Considerig the amount of autotune the second song had, I don't dare to imagine how this would have sounded without.
Ah yes, Eurosong...we have tradition to get some drinks and point and laugh how bad everything is about it. For the last 25 - 30 years this turned into politically rigged contest of worst songs written that year.
Highlight of the evening was watching countries like Sweden and France trying to show everyone how progressive and inclusive they are only to miserably fail thanks to the popular vote.
We also saw France giving us a comic relief by putting a morbidly obese "ballerina" on stage like we haven't laughed enough up to that point.
Haha hilarious, Madonna published her "performance" on her youtube channel, and if there was ever a doubt that you can "audioshop" whatever you want, there you have the proof:
Don't miss the youtube comments
Everyone who made it to the finals are in my book winners, but of course Madonna has to fly in and steal the show...
If you knew the candle was fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.
Eurovision contest is a complete and utter pile of trash.
The best piece of music in this whole show is in fact the Eurovision intro theme which is based on a piece of music from the late 17th century.
