Yes,I like Eurovision too! The only real strong objection I have this year is to the Netherlands woman that said she knew Eurovision was bad but not that bad. Like Scott Mills said [not that I like Scott Mills] wouldn't you check before you enter?
IMHO I think the commentator's egos have started to spoil it a bit. It's meant to be about the songs. I've wondered about doing a Terry Wogan and just watching the performances on YouTube and the voting.
The worst part was in the semi finals when I wanted to hear something Petra said and that American woman talked over her!

These are both the kind of foreign language songs I want to hear. I especially like the melody of Estonia's song. It reminds me of something from a Korean drama. I tend to particularly like either the foreign language ones or the ones in English but with a foreign language version.

When I first listened to it I immediately thought ''Well she's got it sewn up then''. I was very surprised to hear the accusations of plagiarism. I did actually think she was going to win until I watched the semi finals.

People have said they didn't like the up tempo part but I thought it made the song.

Blue-I Can from 2011 is my favourite UK entry but Engelbert and Bonnie have both had fairly good songs as well.

I liked it. Don't really know what else to say.

I think what Scott Mills said about this song was absolutely terrible. This kind of song is completely normal in Japan and therefore I think it's great.
Albania

I thought that this rock song was better than Armenia's. Armenia's was a bit too slow to really be exciting.
I was also glad that Iceland made a song in Icelandic, although technically they did Mundu Efti Mir last year, they just sang it in English in the actual show.
