For the finale to NOT absolutely NOT be the 11th because I can't watch unless my brother approves of a esc watch party at his wedding

The EBU's weird choices surely did not help the sweden vs finland battle.

I want to hear " dated ballads " a la estonia. Many people do. But ok guess I am not a person then. And 2022 was a good year, My favourite was Sheldon Riley.

Btw it has already been said elsewhere but Loreen's controversial win might have something to do with the the televote only semifinals, as those made delegations send more televote focused and less jurybait songs. The few juryfriendly songs that were in the competition to begin with & also...

The jurors gave a well deserved top 10 to Czechia, Australia and Estonia and made Austria not perform absolutely terrible and gave Spain at least some points. They also made some hiccups such as underrating Norway. Together it's balanced.

My winner was Armenia if anything (tho I didn't have a peak favourite, but if I had to pick) which ended up 14th somehow wth, so Loreen wasn't my fave either, only if I had to choose between the two. And her amount of jury points are inflated, she could've gotten a more reasonable close to 300...

Sweden could've gotten 40-50 ish jury points less divided over ie Israel, italy and estonia en have a slightly more reasonable jury score (high 200's) and still have won.

Yes, because its supposed amazingness and the endless should have won everywhere and hate leaves a very bad taste making me literaly like the song less because I associate it with how toxic the fandom can be.

Downgrading this from the 2 I originally gave it on first listen, I forgot to upgrade it to a fair enough 5 at some point, down to a ZERO due how fucking annoying y'all are with the "Finland should have won"

I feel like this year would've been a lot more enjoyable if the whole finland versus sweden things hadn't been as blown up, because I think that is what forced people to vote in very extreme ways. People who like finland but also other songs might have put more/all of their votes on finland in...

Jurors not but semi final televoting breakdown definitely is, I already saw it on eurovision tv this night. Unless this is made up? https://eurovisionworld.com/eurovision/2023/semi-final-1#latvia

Finland fourth in juries, much more than this genre historically gets from juries. Not screwed over. Sweden second in televote, so not like the public didn't like it. Definitely also a people's choice. Very close the two. Have peace.

I al I also still haven't got my confirmation sms

Finland is not doing terrible in the juries, guess it can still win
