The people’s choice was clearly Estonia they got the most votes from the public excluding the 12 jurors points.

Predicting Italy, Denmark, Portugal and Austria to be the top 4 (no particular order, any of these 4 could win) and Israel being the wild card. Germany should land somewhere in the middle or lower end.

If the Swiss could win with this Nemo thing last year then Austria surely could win with some Filipino singing soprano.

That's the fascinating thing about watching the jury and seeing the viewer points. The massive disconnect. Jury glazed Switzerland but the viewers told her to fuck off.

I am a bit sus of the Israel points, but I'm basically just counting down the years until they inevitably win and we get a bunch of seething and chaos. They have cut it dangerously close ever since the conflict flared up with Palestine again.

Also this is the second fag Austria won with. Is this just their trap card? Throw a fag on stage and hope for the best?

I’m disappointed we don’t get the coping and seething of Eurovision in Tel Aviv. Apparently someone got taken down during Israel’s performance and sprayed security with paint.

I haven’t been able to find anything on JJ being a pooner so far. He seems to be just gay and Filipino. Willing to be corrected though.

male soprano is incredibly rare. But looking at the throat, length of index finger, I really think it is a male.

I thought austria was really good and deserved. I thought lithuania was really fucking good. Don't get why nobody else seems to think so.

Albania really messed with themselves in stage presence and performance. Their song was good her moves were cringe and ithe visuals forgettable.

Poland was fascinating. The recaps didn't even include singing. The audience loved them. Jury hated them. Politically motivated?

My conspiracy theory: they moved all of Switzerlands audience points to Austria at the last minute to avoid the fallout from Israel winning.

Why would audience vote for switzerland? It just wasn't a very impactful song emotionally. The difference between juries and audience is that the audience almost always goes for what hits you in the feels, whereas juries are more interested in the technical and political (see all the votes for netherlands despite it have a very bad ending and kind of bad english pronunciation (and I presume french too, it didn't sound well pronounced but I don't really speak french). But hey it's a black guy).

I was surprised switzerland got so many votes. I didn't even think they'd hit top 15.

My favorites this year were Albania, Estonia, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg and Sweden. I'm fine with the Austrian guy winning though. He's a great singer, and unlike the Swiss farmer boy turned Swiss Buffalo Bill, he doesn't seem to be into cross-dressing.

In other news, the Eurovision subpreddit has been temporarily locked because of the gargantuan nuclear meltdown that resulted from Israel's top 3 placement in the contest (1st place in the televotes).

If Predditors seethe, I consider that a win.

He's from a Congolese family so he most likely grew up speaking African French (which is what it sounds like to me) rather than European French.

Yes, true. I was just thinking about the "drama" at the end where Switzerland got 0 points from the public despite getting second most points from the jury. The drama isn't real of course, obviously they know who's going to win right away. It really looked like Israel might win right before then. I honestly wouldn't put it past them to fudge the numbers overall to prevent an Israel victory. You can imagine the cosmic seething that would follow if that happened. It would probably cause real problems for Eurovision if it did.

To be clear, I'm not saying they definitely fudged the results, it just wouldn't surprise me. It might even make economic sense for them to do it.

I 100% believe in corruption and fudging results. I just think it would be easier through judges. I think Switzerland getting so many points is one of the way things are fudged. So organization corruption is likely going to be on judge side.

Corruption from counting audience is possible, audience side corruption is possible (some kind of auto-caller or something). Although it also wouldn't surprise me that countries have sufficient jews and israel sympathetic people to vote a lot. One thing that never surprises me anymore is how energized particularly jews are about this kind of thing. Like with new political parties, you usually have a small handful of very influential jews. Not even necessarily people that started it, sometimes just people that livestream, are interested. But they're disproportionally effective in making a mark. It's like a unique talent.
