2026 Eurovision - Oh Vienna

[tony]

is this like the masked singer and im supposed to guess who she is?

Take that thing off of your mouth!

Sweden: I'd like to keep it on, please.

 

[my little pony]

I like Norways voice but that was just ok

 

[miffy]

Norway is so catchy. I like it.

 

[tony]

Romania sounds like Lady Gaga so much in the beginning of the song. I like it.

 

[kylet3]

Safe to say Austria won't be repeating...

My Top 3...
1) Australia
2) Finland
3) Poland

The rest I was ok with:
Denmark
Albania
Ukraine
Czechia
Croatia
Lithuania

The worst by a mile:
UK
Greece

 

[miffy]

Tonight hasn’t changed my opinion much at all: I still think Australia, Finland and Sweden for top 3, but I still like Norway and Romania more. And Moldova and Greece were fun again.

I’m not as confident as I was about Australia winning as she sounded off to me, but I’m all confused as we seem to all have mixed opinions there

 

[tony]

My favorites: Finland, Bulgaria, Romania, Australia, Greece, Lithuania, Belgium.

The only ones I really didn't get into were Poland, Albania, and especially ITALY. Don't like that song at all.

 

[my little pony]

italy, i could only focus on how badly that male dancer was tossing around the lady

I didn't watch the first five and I'm not a fan of the mess that is Eurovision nowadays, but from what I watched, I liked Italy the best, Poland and Australia a close second.

The Cypriot song seems to get no reactions at all here.. I thought it was a lame attempt by the singer(who again isn't actually Cypriot but has Cypriot roots) to Imitate Paparizou who won in 2005. She ain't no Paparizou and the song lyrics don't even make sense. Noone says Jalla. We say "jallo"(more). Rant over.

I said to my friends Cyprus is very 2005 and that’s the exact song I was thinking of.

Ukraine jury gave UK 1 point, presumably because we co-hosted for them a few years ago so no Nil points for us tonight!

 

[tony]

Shocked and happy Bulgaria is getting jury points because I think it’s the kind of performance that can also get audience votes.

 

[miffy]

No one gets nil points!

 

[kylet3]

Wait... Moldova... really? Ok...

 

[tony]

664 points left with 5 more countries

 

[tony]

512 left

 

[tony]

434 left, Israel will not win. It's either Australia or Bulgaria.

 

[tony]

BULGARIA WINS, 312 POINTS COMING. shocked.

 

[kylet3]

Wow this is crap. Bulgaria was totally forgettable and just meh. Australia should have won... Oh well. This whole year was a major mess.

 

[miffy]

Wow. I had it all wrong, they were my least favourite of their semi final!

But that’s a good result for Eurovision.

 

[tony]

They were my second favorite, thrilled for them and never thought they had a chance. Finland 6th is the big shock for me

 

[nickp]

Graham Norton on Bulgaria's win: "Nobody saw that coming"

 

[4rkidz]

Finally caught up and my top two were France and Bulgaria. Glad to see Bulgaria win and not surprised UK was dead last, what a silly song that was. I didn’t feel like the show was as exciting as previous years. Not sure if because of the boycotts or changes.

 

[my little pony]

my little gibberish song that could! I'm so pleased!

 

[Ananas Astra]

BANGARANGA!
My soul that adores "Hook", of course was thrilled with Bulgaria's win. It has been ages since I agreed with the official winner btw.

Also loved Poland, Moldova (they ALWAYS bring the voids), Italy (for the dress trick), Israel, Australia and a few others.

All in all, we had a great night, considering the circumstances, my improvised meatballs were amazing, we still have tons of booze left and I won't have any negative feelings today when it comes to burying my bf's mom at sea. YAY!
