I agree with this. Also, the whole "50th anniversary of ABBAs win" sounds kind of silly motive.

As a Finn I would've loved our Käärijä to win, but the truth is that Loreen also got over 200 points in televote. Yeah, the result was indeed quite an anticlimax when it was so obvius who was the people's favourite, but with the current voting system, it was a fair game.

Still, I do think the jury vote was kind of lazy when there were other quality songs too (personally I loved Czechia's entry!) and it would have been fair if their votes had been more evenly distributed. Loreen's song was good but it wasn't THAT good. And frankly, after Euphoria, it was kind of boring and offered nothing new.

Maybe the weight of the jury should be lowered to 25-30%? I mean, Eurovision isn't and shouldn't be too serious competition. It's silly and campy and that's why most people love it, so personally I think the televote should count more than the jury vote. I'm fine with having some kind of jury there, though.

Anyway, congrats Swedes! Even if this years entry wasn't your best, overall you're truly the masters of Eurovision, haha. And we're happy with our second place too!

DA
