ESC 2009 ranking: the final guess

May 16, 2009 17:41

The ESC final day is here! And it's really-really hard to predict what will happen. Mostly the right songs got the final places and the average quality is very good. It's gonna be really exciting! (The 2nd semi results were already too exciting - Greece and Norway mentioned last, phiuh!) Here is some kind of a list of what would happen if I could ( Read more... )

it went exactly as i predicted norway (and got my votes and i think twelve points from estonia) and estonia came sixth as i told someone during the day :) nice.

and i'm glad iceland got the second place, out of ballads i liked her the best and there was sth about russia i really liked. france was also great but webber definately didn't save uk. germany was so camp that it made it cool somehow.

but all in all, the whole show looked and sounded better than it recently has :)

Yep, it went pretty much as predicted and I can't imagine a better winner than Alexander from Norway. :) After the final I made the last hasty list, which was 1. Norway, 2. Iceland, 3. Greece (it was a wish, not a prediction), 4. Bosnia-H, 5. Azerbaijan, 6. Estonia, 7. France, couldn't get further than that. Iceland was really good, it deserved the second place! Regina was still a bit absent-looking on the stage, Estonians (YOU!) had really one of the most well-made stage shows (meaning camera angles, colours and everything), and Patricia was really strong. Even UK was better than I expected, but nothing too special ( ... )

Just adding the final results here, as after a few weeks they get lost somewhere in the internet. Sorry the countries are in Finnish, but I'm sure you'll understand anyway. And here is the scoreboard. I wonder if we ever get to know how the jurys affected on the result ( ... )

Haa! Eurovision.tv tells us the results of jury voting ( ... )

Ok, I try... I did some calculations (as I don't seem to have better things to do :P ( ... )

Correction: Norway's victory was a bit smaller. Went from 169 points to 160 points. Me and my bad maths. :D
