I was hoping last year would be one of those exceptions when the Eurovision winner would be won by a song I wouldn't listen to after the contest. But here we go again.

 

[Chrisiam]

EBU breaths a sigh of relief.

 

[Kev4000]

Austria won. I predictated that since I saw his music video on youtube.
At least no Israel win.
Its time to ban, they corrupt the whole televoting.

 

[AliceEsc]

Congratulations and JJ, austrian members here will be over the moon!

 

[Milot]

Albania finishing 8th is f'ing amazing but it could have definitely finished inside the top 5 if it wasn't for the juries screwing them over.

 

[Etanna]

omg Eurovision will stay in Central Europe and it may even be marginally cheaper out there

 

[ekzuu]

Congratzzzz
At least not israel

But WTF Nordics u undepreformed what were u doing when voting its so sad, so so sad

 

[Wynnter]

Im so fucking glad this contest is over now and no more of it for 6 months

 

[Verjamem]

It's not any relief

 

[bazinga]

It was obvious. They will never let Israel win in this climate

 

[Andrin]

He did it. I am crying.

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

So this works several times in a row? Hmm, we will see many countertenors next year...

Conchita maybe hosting????

 

[cassio]

Switzerland 0 points thats wrong

 

[ekzuu]

WTF WE GOT 3RD PLACE???????????

 

[0scar]

top 3........... overrated as hell all three of them

 

[Etanna]

No... the Austrian singer is pro-Russian. Awful.

what? is that for real?

 

[SirPeterGriffin]

This was a dark night. Austria winning was a lifeboat but this situation is becoming unsustainable. Allowing these artificial votes is grotesque. F off zionists!

 

[empo21]

This was the most frustrating (derogatory) result reveal ever. That country should not get that close to winning Eurovision. I can't even be happy for Austria. Another predictable win thanks to a jury landslide. I believe they were 4th or 3rd in tele.

Latvia 13th is the only thing keeping be happy

 

[Iker]

Happy with the eventual winner, I really like the entry.

I was scared that Israel is gonna win, I am sensing some manipulations in that super high TV points number.
