The finals are this weekend! It looks like we're picked to win again and I think we have a decent entry. The performance is fun.
Anyone else have any favorites or performances you are looking forward to?

Looking forward to watching! I haven't read anything about the entries. I prefer knowing nothing about them before I watch. Love Graham Norton's commentary in the UK broadcast.
I'm so ready for some good cheesy fun and general weirdness.

The top 27 has been decided. People were flipping out because Malta and Ireland didn't get through. I didn't care much for either. Israel's entry is pretty great. I am still loving Sweden's entry, though.

I just realized Mans Zelmerlow is the Sweden entry. I love him! I can't wait to hear the song.

The song is Heroes. It's been wildly popular here since he won. The performance is a lot of fun, too. I may be biased, but I haven't seen anything I think comes close, as of yet.

I don't think you're biased. I saw very few remarkable songs and to me, Sweden is the obvious winner. Albania made my ears bleed. So many performers who can't sing in tune. I'd put Italy and Azerbaijan in the top 3 with Sweden (with Italy being Sweden's biggest competitor). I also liked UK, Lithuania (the kiss was totally cute), Serbia and Spain.
I really miss the old Eurovision weirdness, folk music and familiar fun tacky formulaic performances.

I've voted for Australia, not because I think the song is the best but because it would mess up the whole idea of what Eurovision is about if the contest had to come from down under next year.
Besides, the Aussies' need to win something this year 'cos they're so gonna not win the Rugby World Cup.

Conchita was fantastic! Her two songs were better than the majority of the entries. Cheers to Conchita and all the "Unstoppables"!

Conchita rocked and I have not cared for her much in the past! Sticking with Sweden. I enjoyed Italy and Russia, too.

Russia did have a good song, as much as I don't like to admit it. And Greece had the best blowing hair ballad this year.

Looks like it's between Sweden, Italy and Russia. And it may be a tight race. I'd actually be surprised if Russia wins, considering the anti-gay politics that got them booed last year.
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:09pm
Russia is already getting some boos. I would HATE to see the show in Russia next year. I wouldn't send an artist and their team there.
And... there's the no politics warning.
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:10pm
I love how the host has to keep reminding the audience that the theme is "Building Bridges" and to try and keep politics out of the contest. Meanwhile, the neighboring countries all vote for each other, as usual. LOL

WHAT?! I was SHOCKED that Denmark gave us 12 points! 
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:15pm
HA!
This is a bit of a nail-biter. I really am not happy about Russia doing so well. I'm still not over that performance of theirs last year.
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:18pm
The chick from France spoke a bit of English! That's rare on Eurovision.
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:23pm
Conchita is being a great ambassador. But I wish they would show a LOT more of Mans.
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:25pm
He is so beautiful. Some guy tweeted, "Is it the song or is it the pants? Who cares, I am voting SWEDEN!"
The more points Russia gets, the more audible the boos become!

Oh, thank you Slovenia and Hungary!

OMG....Nigella and her boobs!
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:33pm
Was she drunk? She seemed very shaky. lol
Posted: 5/23/15 at 6:33pm
Man, the crowd is really pulling for Sweden! And what's with all the video mishaps?
Nigella is always like that! That's why I love The Taste!

Yay Poland! Well done!

It's looking good for Sweden! I'm so excited!
