I love the Icelandic ballad. He sings in Icelandic, the language of my Viking forefathers (I don't understand anything) and he looks like a viking with his long blond hair.

We were all rather disappointed that he decided to wear a suit. He was more vikingy in the intro.

One of my facebook friends says the Greek one was the best. I haven't heard any so can't comment but am enjoying the commentary on facebook and here well enough.

I hope Denmark wins. Az... won two years ago.
Only Norway gave Sweden 12 points. Our brother people!

Rasp the Greek one was awful, in a compelling way

On German TV they keep moaning how unfair it was that Cascada didn't win. I think they were boring.

Of course Emmelie won, she is so pretty. Oh, it doesn't work like that? Are you sure?

Well I can be happy about that. Yes, that would be my number two European country after the Netherlands since Princess Mary is Australian. Practically like having the Aussies win!

I was surprised to hear many Australians were watching the competition live even though the time would be 5 o'clock if you live in Sydney or 3am in Perth.

Here is the viking one. But it really should have been a more appropriate song, even a love ballad, rather than what comes off as "life is wonderful".

And here is the Greek one that came dangerously close to winning:

I thin Azer... Ajerba... Ashe... this song came second, but I suspect it had more to do with an interesting stage show than the song being anything memorable. Probably came off rather dull on the radio.

If you like dresses, or the lack thereof, there is always Belarus and Spain. They were dressed in legs.

The Romanian guy really does have a lovely voice though, I don't think I have ever heard a beautiful falsetto before. Here is a studio session:

Amazing voice. Perhaps Romania would have done even better if he had been a counterpart to a female singer.

I still agree with Graham Norton's comment of "Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should!"
