[@sunner108]

I was personally not the biggest fan of Finland's song but winning the public vote so overwhelmingly and still coming in second is absurd. It's ridiculous that 5 jury members from each country should have as much power to pick the winner as millions of fans. Loreen winning without a single 12 points from the fans is not a good look for the Eurovision.

[@coppershape1]

It was rigged so eurovision could be in Sweden while Abba celebrates its 50 years

[@sk70091]

Absurd is just the right word. This system is so unfair to the fans who actually pay to vote.

[@tofiqzade]

No, it is not. First, the jury final is held separately from the grand final for televoters. Norway for example, sounded horrrrrible during the jury final, like it was very bad and she could barely sing, so I can understand why it came low with the juries but high with televoters. Kaarija was never the best singer, and during the jury final he was far from best. Still, the fact that he came in top 5 with juries is a lot compared to countries like Spain that came in top 10 only.

I LOVE LORD OF THE LOST LIKE WTF😭😭😭😭

[@kingkramer]

I personally loved the idea of Lord of the Lost's entry, but I think the thing that set Voyager's entry above it for me was how the energy/composition was handled. Voyager's entry was a tried-and-true way to build up the song and its energy for sure, but it worked wonders. For me, "Blood and Glitter" peaked in the very beginning and the bridge, where both the band and the vocalist went harder with the fry screams. After a relatively calm first verse, I was expecting the chorus to match the fantastic energy of the intro. I'll have to listen to the studio version. I know many songs don't always translate as well to the stage (vocalists have to breathe after all), and it might be that the energy is better contained when the challenges of live performance are alleviated. In short: Lord of the Lost did an excellent performance, and there's not a shred of doubt that these are incredibly skilled musicians and performers! I just wanted *more* :)

[@Giotsche]

You forgot the jury all giving 12 points to sweden and greece not giving 12 to Cyprus

​@@jounirikkonen8176 And this was done on purpose so that ABBA and Eurovision could celebrate 50 years next year so convenient a jury pushing something to happen to please a music group instead of doing their job in the most neutral possible way

[@jounirikkonen8176]

@@moondaughter1004 Yes, i did notice that. And it is not peoples fault or Loreen's. In UMK (Finnish eurovision selection competition) the international jury from 7 countries will have the affect of 25% of points. 75% is by people televoting. With that system the jury can not overrun if people are behind of one competitor. In that system the jury is more like "small boost" or "professional opinion". But i think that at the end we would not be this upset if jury and televotes would have been atleast little bit closer each other. The difference was too blatant. Käärijä got 2nd biggest televote points ever after Ukraine 2022 and he still lost so it kind of tell's that in realisticly public votes couldn't have changed the outcome after Loreen got so huge points from jury.

[@CharlieGB03]

[@diekje8728]

Watching the public voting was so painful. You know it starts of low but than it keeps rising. This just kept getting more and more depressing

[@venlakirahvi]

I also really prefer the normal way of announcing points. Maybe they should just add the jury and public votes together so they can be announced by each country at the same time (if we are to continue having the juries). I get that this new style of announcing the public votes is much more dramatic and entertaining. However it's just not the Eurovision tradition, and it becomes a bit humiliating for the artists in the low end when it's made into such a spectacle. I admire their attitudes but still. Even though Eurovision is a competition, it should still be done in a way that is wholesome and including.

[@Alicia-zf3nq]

@@venlakirahvi I'm all for not having to sit through one and a half hours of announcing points. All those countries announcing points for 45 minutes in a semi-formal way only for the scores to change again afterwards is such a mood dampener. I came to watch a party, not a boring maths lecture

[@venlakirahvi]

​@@Alicia-zf3nq It seems to be a question of preference/taste. For me it's an essential part of the Eurovision tradition. Sure, I also think some of it is boring, but there are also fun, weird and wholesome things that happen during it.

That's what I have been saying, the points were really concentrated. I had more songs that I really liked this year than any other year before but I had to prioritise my votes and I'm sure this is exactly what most people did.

[@xime5224]

Pointing out how most of the countries look disappointed already prior to the public votes being announced, and I think that’s because they knew, after the Sweden jury points, there was no chance for them to even come close to winning. And I think most countries were sacrificed in the public vote for the chance to see Kaarija win - not even that worked :(

[@alice45-fgd-456drt]

I think this is correct. If Finland had gotten every single 12 from every single country, they still would've only won with 11 points. The jury made sure that Sweden would win because of the Abba anniversary next year, and the public was forced to try to vote against it. In the end we all wasted our money.

[@KaleidoSTARPH]

if Finland got at least 430+ points from televotes, he would have won Sweden, with obviously high Jury Votes, won despite how it is 100 less she receives from Televotes yeah, Jury Votes are just cruel to Finland

I'm 18 so I'm not old enough to have personal memories of it. Seeing my home country get so close to winning, yet failing was so frustrating, because it was juries fault it didn't happen. The people who voted paid REAL MONEY. And the fact that their votes had no significant impact because of the ridiculous advantage given to sweden. I'm not saying loreen isn't vocally gifted 'cause obviously she is. But you'd have to be lying to say you've never heard anything like tattoo before.

But still they won their semi and it was all viewer votes so we have hope for the future if SBS chooses to stay in the competition.

Next year is the 50th anniversary, Waterloo was in 1974 - ABBA really popped out with their pop song in a sea of ballads, but it was a tight competition against Italy until the very end. Ironically, Italy was the one who brought a former winner... and it would have worked out for being the FIRST singer to win twice and ALSO being the first woman to do so, if ABBA weren't there. The anniversary of the band that surprisingly won with a song unlike any other against a former winner will be in Sweden... because a former winner won against a singer with a surprisingly song unlike any other. It's disappointing on even more levels.

Surely Serbia wasn't super high in the overall odds but it doesn't change the fact that online it had a lot of positive feedback. Looking at the top-lists on KZbin and other media I saw a lot of praise and almost no bad words about the Serbian singer while Poland had one of the most hated artists this year. I believe Poland got more attention thanks to the bad reputation Blanka received and it helped her.. which, I mean, is good for her, but in the end it was still very surprising to a lot of people. The song can easily be stuck in your head. 😂

I can’t believe you think that anyone would vote on it because of bad reputation xd ppl just liked it. Serbia song, vocals very quiet and whole premise really strange-niche song (anime comparison is even mentioned by ppl who liked it xd) and mostly liked by Twitter ppl. Austria also praised mostly online, because of tiktok and other online media i guess. For me they were trying to be catchy with their chorus but it was boring, wouldn’t listen to it on headphones and wouldnt party to it either.

@@FexxarTV I didn't mean to say she got votes because of bad reputation. What I meant was that she got votes because she got a lot of attention due to the circumstances around her being chosen as the representative. People heard about her more because of it and no one can deny that her song is easily going to be stuck inside your head and is very catchy. For example, during the show I was talking to my mother and she was like "The more I listen to the polish song the more I like it." It's a catchy song, I am not denying that. I've actually never heard anyone say Luke Black's song sounds or looks like from an Anime, so idk about that. I've actually listened to both Serbia's and Austria's song a lot while gaming. So while I may not understand your opinion on them I still appreciate your input. I was just very baffled with the outcome of the votes due to the experiences I made.

It's not a pop song, it's a ballad, it's not average, it's awesome. She was just on another level that others couldn't follow

It was a great Eurovision 2023, lots of talent and such a great atmosphere. My favourites were Finland, Serbia, and Germany. It's a shame that Finland didn't win.❤

Ok guys. Luke is a fcking prince and he arrived only at 25 place. I loved his performance. And i ofc agree about his psycho laugh. He is incredible.

[@ShyGal3]

Honestly I feel bad for Kaarija, but seeing Alika & JokerOut comfort him after his 2nd place is so calming.

I don’t see anyone complain about that Spain got 95 points from the juries and only 5 from televotes…! Sometimes jury votes are more than welcome, I guess.

[@in_wino_veritas]

It was overrated by the juries. How can they give her so many points, that she would end up ahead of the 8th, 9th and 10th places of the public vote on the scoreboard, even though she finished dead last with the public. 183 jurors overturning the will of a hundred million people. There you have it. And maybe they don't complain about it, because she didn't win anyway. Or get into the Top 10. Well, and it's also funny to see the difference on how this song was perceived by the juries, the media and the bubble on KZbin and Twitter, vs how actual people in real life responded to it, we're living in a huge bubble after all. Although I gotta say, that most of the people ranking behind Spain deserved a better result than her, not the UK, but the other 8 songs that were ranking below her.

[@chaotic.mindsp4ce]

Germany has brought something truly unique and thoughtful to the board with real art behind it. At this point, they could send Loreen and still place sub 50 points. Doesnt sound political to me at all..

[@Mary_m-ks2fx]

Czechia and Slovenia deserved so much better.

[@caritawatts7951]

Thank's that was a great recap!

[@florenna]

3:20 is like whole of Finland after Sweden's televote points were announced! 😡🤬🤬 As normally, those televote points would of course have made Sweden 2nd at best, and we the winners, but since juries didn't vote normally and distribute their points to all the deserving entries, this was the unfair result :(

[@Aliens420]

At this point voting should be on the internet for free. Televoting is such outdated thing

[@MVUK358]

Hilarious video 😂 Very well done!! ❤

[@alfredhedlund4894]

Wow the edits in the televote is the most hilarious thing I’ve seen!! Great job🤩//🇸🇪

[@Pizza_Party]

Now that Sweden won, will we get Petra Mede hosting again?? I love her so much!!

[@Hybridancer]

This is what I am genuinely hoping for too! Her and Måns were incredible together and gave us the best ESC (related) song the year they hosted together! :D

[@Yamizan]

Yes pleeeeeease.

I want justice not only for Finland (of course) and Australia but above all for Czeck Republic. The artistic direction was on point, costumes, hair, visuals, dance moves, everything. Let’s add a catchy song, powerful message and a collective spirit. I sincerely can’t see what they are missing. Their sister got a crown, but they deserve one of their own 👑

[@iamnotmega]

anyone else watching in 2024? idk im just watching cuz 2023 was too iconic

[@rinnniiiii]

La zarra's sneaky middle finger at 2:30 💀 As she should, her song was a bop and a half

[@oski1500]

I totally agree that Serbia should be much, much higher. It was something different and it should get more recognition

[@d-a-i-s-y]

this is officially my favorite video on the internet. thank you so much😭

[@courtofcryptids7626]

I cannot believe My sister's crown didn't get higher with the sheer talent of the performance itself. dancing and running around on stage and didn't even SOUND breathless
