I don't think this did well in televoting either (except in ex-yu countries). I think most casual viewers would dislike this. And I considered pressing the "mute" button while this one was being performed actually.
Well said CypriotGirl. I'd love to know how many viewers who appreciate decent songs did press the mute button (or did something else such as go to the toilet or make a cup of coffee) during Montenegro's performance.
Nice one juries. Montenegro was a disgrace to this contest with that pathetic excuse for "music" and the semi-finals are in place to make sure crap like that doesn't make it.
I endorse what you say QwaarJet. I've said this somewhere else but I'll say it here to avoid cross-referencing. Montenegro's entry was a mish mash of rap and thrash metal. What was the significance of the astronaut costumes? This was the one country I definitely didn't want to qualify; thank God it's now been eliminated. I'm appalled and disgusted that Montenegro chose this utter garbage to represent their country in the first place. This sort of thing doesn't belong in Eurovision, full stop! It shouldn't have been in last night's semi-final, let alone the final. I think the EBU should prohibit this sort of entry by any country in future.
Had Montenegro qualified (against my wishes) I would have seen it as a disgrace and insult to the grand final.
Yeah, instead we got such magnificent entries like Russia, Lithuania and Belarus in the final...
Well at least Russia, Lithuania and Belarus were better than Montenegro. I felt everyone else was better than Montenegro. In my opinion Montenegro was the worst song of last night. I'm dying to see the results after Saturday's final, I pray to God that they came last with nul points (juries and televoting combined). Okay,
Lithuania wasn't bad, but I wasn't overly keen on it (I thought Austria, Croatia and Cyprus were better than Lithuania), but even I felt Lithuania was 1000 times better than Montenegro's inappropriate garbage.
Russia was one of the countries I most wanted to qualify, a beautiful ballad (i.e. decent song), much better than their entry of last year, and much better than Montenegro's trash this year.
I've noticed a few people have said Montenegro deserved the place the "comparatively inferior" entry from Belarus took. Well actually I thought
Belarus was much better than Montenegro. Belarus had Alyona's arm movements and the men's well-choreographed dance routine in time with the accompanying beat. Belarus was one of the countries I most wanted to qualify and was so glad it reached the final. By the way I voted for Belarus (and also Croatia).
As for those of you who have said this is the 201x decade (call it the tens, teeens or whatever) and that you want modern nightclub music, no thanks! Do we really want the likes of Gangnam Style in the ESC? I don't think so.
