Screw it next year Jodeling.

Been there, done that.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Thanks for tonight!

Fantastic

 

[Slacka]

U.K confirmed not last.

Success.

Although still our second worst outing of all time, only time we ever did worse was with 0 points in 2003 looking over the previous results! http://www.eurovision.tv/page/history/by-country/country?country=6

 

[sahest]

If germany wanted to do something about it they would have, they pay for it.

Thank you for underlining my point!
The French are clutching at tradition, while the Germans are progressive. They understand that language is about communication, and getting most viewers to understand what is being said.

 

[stump sock]

hey dude, you're probably half drunk and emotionally wrecked, please sing your song again

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Next year we just send Happy Drummer Guy

 

[Gradon]

Feel bad for Austria. No point for the host is rude.

But really, it's about the song not the hosting... Which was terrible.
Congrats to Sweden, glad they won compared to Russia.
Pretty depressed Australia didn't get a win, I want them to compete again.

Yep, that's how Austria and Germany both got 0 points this year. Great job.

 

[Mavromatis]

How many countries have gone from ESC win one year to zero points the next? Any, before this?

Since 2003 there wasn't a 0 point afaik.

 

[TCRS]

"we are the heroes of our time"

what the fuck does that even mean

 

[Fergie]

 

[CheDominik]

Well I lost my bet, but I'm drunk so I think this evening was a success for me.

 

[Sesha]

Dat shinku hadoken.

 

[Jamie OD]

Same time next year, everybody!

 

[ICKE]

Thanks for tonight!

Perfect!

 

[Bladenic]

What place did Romania get?

And LMAO at 0 points for Austria, and ew at Russia 2nd.

But Heroes was a good song and that dude was HOT

 

[D4Danger]

lol Germany

enjoy your new status

 

[cyba89]

Wow, this goes perfect with the swedish song.

 

[Jasup]

The sun is rising, Sweden winning, how fitting

 

[T.O.P]

DEM CLOSE UP



MELTING, HELP

 

[Xord]

Good night Europe!

 

[Kurtofan]

the Anschloss

 

[Maxxan]

So welll deserved! loved Russia and Austraiia, vut Sweden rules!!!!

 

[Peru]

Again, they really need to go through with inviting a guest country every year.

 

[Rapstah]

Since 2003 there wasn't a 0 point afaik.

That's so weird. Does that mean the songs are more or less divisive now than over that 2003-2014 period?

 

[Milchmann]

Russia as ESC villian is actually fun. Let's restrict it to the contest.

 

[MBR]

JAAAAAAA

 

[MudoSkills]

I want Japan to guest next year, so we get the chance of Miku in Euro-vis.

Make it happen.

 

[Shahadan]

Russia to wage war on sweden soon

 

[DiddysKongQuest]

Let's see how Ann Sophie's family will react to the 0 points now in the after show.

 

[Oersted]

Hamburg. Fitting.

 

[Mavromatis]

Again, they really need to go through with inviting a guest country every year.

Since countries in Europe are losing interest that might be the only way to keep this alive.

 

[D4Danger]

Again, they really need to go through with inviting a guest country every year.

let's just open it up to everyone

I want some south american acts

imagine what Brazil or Colombia would do. imagine.

 

[Zeknurn]

Again, they really need to go through with inviting a guest country every year.

Yeah lets hope South Korea gets invited next year. I imagine it would spice things up by quite a bit.

 

[Sesha]

let's just open it up to everyone

Open it for Brazil. If they win they'll have an opportunity to use the FIFA world cup stadium again.

 

[ICKE]

It was a good effort from Australia.

I really think having different countries as visitors is a good idea. Next year the USA?

 

[Xater]

The German song this year was way too pedestrian. Need to send something real shitty next year which will probably earn us more points. Get Stefan Raab on the phone!

 

[Peru]

Since countries in Europe are losing interest that might be the only way to keep this alive.

Some are, others are seeing record viewing figures this year. But there's always a need for changes. And other countries will see it as a nice chance for exposure and put some effort into their entry.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Thanks again Euro gaf for making it fun to watch.
Sadly this year was pretty bad

Some great gifs and laughs but mostly everything was bad.

 

[oti]

We are still Weltmeister though.

 

[Red Arremer]

Since 2003 there wasn't a 0 point afaik.

That is correct if you only count finals.
Including semi-finals the other 0-pointers are Switzerland 2004 and Czech Rep. 2009.
And of course potentially one in the 2 semis this year.

 

[Pennywise]

Hamburg. Fitting.

Too bad there is no relegation for the ESC.

 

[Humidex]

Again, they really need to go through with inviting a guest country every year.

Suggestions?

 

[Kuldar]

We should invit USA, the neogaf thread would be amazing.

 

[Kuros]

Since 2003 there wasn't a 0 point afaik.

We could have put the Beatles up at the height of their powers and still got 0 points in 2003 because of the Iraq invasion.

 

[gerg]

Is Australia confirmed not to be participating again? Given that we have Israel in the show already there's really no reason not to let them do so if they want.

 

[D4Danger]

Open it for Brazil. If they win they'll have an opportunity to use the FIFA world cup stadium again.

they're finished now so it makes sense

 

[Koren]

Singing in french nowadays, maybe though.

Why?

I'd like to see more countries singing in their own language. I have no problems with people deciding to sing in english, but I still think it's a miss opportunity.


Since the winner is Sweden, and we are on a video game forum... I'd like to say that I love the Legend of Mana main theme, and it's in swedish.

Same for the Grandia 2 ending theme in portuguese.

 

[Xater]

It was a good effort from Australia.

I really think having different countries as visitors is a good idea. Next year the USA?

Yes, I think it's great. Let the Us or Japan enter. I'd like to see that.

Suggestions?
