ESC doesn't need joke songs like this anymore ! It's a mature contest now. Luckily, the bad 2000's years are gone far behing us...

This is not a joke entry, this is club music from the 10's...

The Russian cheese-fest however is one big kitschy joke... but I guess you wanna go back to the ESC years where it was laughed at for being pathetically dated and cheesy?

I hope for Montenegro not to withdraw now... I think will not withdraw because all the other ex-Yugoslav countries failed tonight!

No, but even only the costumes were jokes themselves...

Ever heard of a stage show? But I guess everyone must dress the same... God FORBID if someone actually comes up with something slightly different...

And such oddly costumes works for this type of entries... I mean it might have looked weird for Lithuania's boring middle-of-the-road entry but this is a different type of song.

For gays and old women? :lol:

Montenegro would of deserved it. xcry1

I'm gay... say "old queens" instead ;)

Yes they did... I want to kick out the juries finally, they're so unattached and only want their safe dated English stuff...

They sent their best entry to date and the most modern entry that has probably ever entered ESC, If I were them I would withdraw in protest until ESC changes the jury system...

okay, but there are nicer ways to set up a stage show... gimmicks like this are no more well accepted by the people at home and surely not by the juries !!

dubstep doesn't fit to ESC, I'm sorry. Yes, they tried this way, and now we know it doesn't work.

The juries want cheesy dated ballads and make ESC look ridiculous again... that's worse than any gimmick in the world!... the people are probably more open-minded (well they usually are).

and no, we can't dismiss everything as "gimmick" because it's not conventional boring performances... that's just lame.

Place in the final robbed by Belarus.

+1. I don't think any music professional would vote for that "song" and keep his job :lol:

Oh, but they should vote for cheesy relics by Russia or awfully lame songs like the Lithuanian one or the ESC 2002 entry by Belarus?

If that's "professionalism" how come we don't hear such songs on radio or on the dance-floors then??? Well because they are unattached to today's music...

For once we had an up-to-date entry, but the so called "professionals" prefers dated cheese...

I was never a fan of the jury, but the system used this year is worse than ever.

If you didn't like this song, i understand and tolerate it. But answer yourselves, please: wouldn't it be worth to sometimes grit your teeth in exchange of more originality and diversity in the contest in future? Or are you happy to see Eurovision dominated by pop ballads?

Now everyone is complaining about the jurys. In the last years it was the same, and then when the semifinal results were revealed you saw that the jury gave even more points than the audience..
But i'm very disappointed I really wanted to see them in final. But not instead of Belarus, I mean Belgium, Lithuania, Estonia,...are worse in my opinion.

It's a shame this didn't qualified! xcry1
I really liked the song. The staging was awsome! And it would have been good to have something different in the final.
The staging was clearly one of the best of the night.
One of the more modern songs of this years contest yet the jury are totally against them in favor of the more Eurovision typical. It appears to happen every time a country tries to be more trendy. xshrug

Kick out the juries is the only solution, then ESC will become modern and cool again... now it's turning into "The Voice of Europe singing dated cheese ballads or safe-pop in English" contest.

You keep repeating that on each and every thread, but I'd be rather cautious and wait for the split jury/televote results. Honestly I don't think Montenegro was in the televote top 10, although I may be wrong.
