    btw the perfomer with the most appearances in all of eurovision history is a guy named george costa, who was a backing singer for no less than 18 different entries in the 70s and 80s, even appearing 4 times in one year once

    re the jury: the main issue seems to be that the people chosen for the jury are too often pop music professionals, so knowing that it's not too surprising when they reward Sweden, a country that has consistently sent well-produced pop songs. imo they need to have more people make up the jury, maybe double the size, as to account for more varied music backgrounds and jury demographics. ThePeaceAround did an incredible, super well-researched video on this, I highly recommend it

    Fellow Dutchie here. Very excited, it's a very strong year. I think either Switzerland or Croatia will take it (whoever has the stronger staging, most likely). And hoping Joost will get a top 5 spot!

    I don't even get why the whole "everyone copies the previous year's winner" thing is something people still believe. Last year didn't have that much ethno rap in it, 2022 didn't have an increased number of rock songs (hell 2023 actually had more), 2021/2020 didn't have a noticeably higher number of sad ballads than eurovision usually has, 2019 didn't have a bunch of chicken clucking, 2018 had like.... 1 jazz song out of 43 and it had a completely different vibe than Amar Pelos Dois, 2017 like maybe you could argue had a higher number of ballads than usual but they weren't very similar to 1944, and 2016 the year you mentioned had like 2 that actually imitated sweden's staging from 2015 (come on, latvia and armenia don't count lmao you're stretching). If anything the only other entry that I can say has inspired a significant number of entries in more than just genre choice or "being more creative" is Spain 2022, last year and this year have had quite a noticeable uptick in dance breaks, and Spain didn't win in 2022.

    People seem to forget that loreen was 2nd in the televote and käärijä got more televote points then loreen got jury points so that throws the whole argument of loreen getting too many points from the jury out of the window.
    Also käärijä was 4th with the jury, it’s not like he got dead last.
    If we give the televote more power then the jury then we just go back to the awful times of the 2000s
    But this is one of my favourite years in over a decade. I’m honestly really happy that everyone took inspiration from käärijä since it did make the contest more interesting even though cha cha cha wasn’t my favourite sing from last year (btw neither was tattoo).
    And this was a really fun video to watch and it was really well made

    alright but Sweden? To me this is one of their weaker entries and they will definitly not do well with the public, but juries wil probably put this quite high so I think theyll scratch the top 10 but not something to be copied for the next 20 years. Also how did we get these 2 guys over fucking Maria Sur, Dotter, Jacqline and Medina. Well anyways... we winnen de televote en we worden 3e mark my words
    edit: Pardon, nog n Nederlander die Estland basically als 2nd nationality heeft qua eurovision, ik zie een patroon

Be for real and cope. Your taste of music doesn't always have to win. Y'all were not complaining when Duncan Laurence won and he won by not winning either jury or televote lmfao.
