I just want them + other notable Eastern countries to return at this point 

North Macedonia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Bulgaria, Turkey, Hungary, Slovakia

Kosovo participation too if Serbs can chill out and unify by music or whateva

Sweden is gonna flop with the public in years to come. If there will be a voting system change in favor of televote, Swden isn't cracking top 5 anytime soon.

Because Loreen didn’t just receive 2nd most televotes with 243 points this year?

you wish. when they send Cornelia Jakobs again and she sweeps juries and televote 

Hold Me Closer was easily their best entry since Euphoria, but for the reasons mentioned above - GP won't be here for Sweden no matter what they send!

 

I just hope Loreen rises above all this, because the gp kinda dislikes her now

Slayed the welcoming performance in Stockholm 

 

haters can choke

Because of what happened in the end. I'm sure most of people didn't dislike Tattoo in the first place, but after jury pushing it to win - GP switched like f-words.

 

Also, why are Loreen stans so defensive?  I literally traveled to Sweden to watch the queen win Melodifestivalen, yet y'all quote me as if I'm one of her haters simply because I'm realistic about the current situation

I heard of Eleni back in 2012 and I used to (and still do) watch her MAD VMA performances every year. I was so glad when she finally managed to be selected after wanting to be for so long  She is and remains that girl.

angry Redditors and ATRLers dislike her maybe.  the gp voted for her overwhelmingly, Sweden's best televote placement since 2012 when she last won. the song is smashing on the charts and streaming services

It's not just Redditors or ATRLers though. I'm still yet to talk to a person who thinks she deservedly won. Unfortunately, GP can't focus their anger at EBU so they got nasty with Loreen, who won fair and square.

#7 I Wrote a Song

#11 Cha Cha Cha

#12 Queen of the Kings

I think Tattoo and Cha x3 will both be higher by the end of the week as they’re #1 and #2 on Spotify for 2 days now and have a good lead over #3

The people I was watching with think she deserved to win. I’m actually surprised by some of the reactions here.

My theory is that Tattoo is too polished for Balkan countries. I've been showing people this years entries since March and only two of them liked it. The rest were very meh about it, so I'm not shocked by locals going hard for Finland.

Cha Cha Cha received more streams than Tattoo the winner, surprised?

Does this mean we have a new winner according to certain users in here? Stats don't lie iirc

A stream is still a stream. This just proves not only did Tattoo get help from jury payola but now Spotify payola too

that means even less people are listening to the song and putting it on repeat 

 

we can have a chat when Cha Cha Cha catches up to Tattoo's streaming total
