Give "Who We Are" to Måns and he will win the contest for ya...
That's why Måns was 3rd with televoters with a fantastic stage show in 2015

If the jury seriously put this in their top 10, then their reputation will severly suffer and the backlash will be enormous.

If this song wins, my love for Eurovision will die. I would physically suffer.

What dramatic words! xlol But I guess These words Show that you take a possible winning into account ...The more People write against this song, the more I love it!
I really don't care?
because "it's so eurovision"
think about it, this song comes to life when performed live on stage..

I really hope this growing with the bookies isn't an indication of anything, the song is almost on 2001 Estonia winning entry cringe level of childish, banal and mediocre in one. I don't mind Rybak, he's a great entertainer and "Fairytale" was a deserved win, but out of all the good options this year, this just shouldn't even be talked about as a winner. If this wins, I don't even want to think about what type of Eurovision we'll get next year. 2018 is a surprisingly strong year after some pretty bad years for Eurovision, this could ruin it all.

So the betting odds are wrong, but you are correct? Are you being objective about this, or is your opinion of the song affecting your perspective of it's chances to win?

Oh my... a well-performed cheesy song potentially doing well at ESC? How SHOCKING! 
Seriously, is this your first ESC or something? We just had My Friend (Croatia) last year, which was just as ridiculous and cheesy. I feel like people are only crying about this, because it's Rybak and not a new performer.

Offtopic, but why is Estonia 2001 getting so much hate everywhere?
The production is very 2001. There is a legitimate show going on. An old black man and a young white man singing together about unity (despite differences of age or looks or nation or whatever).
There's a show, a message, it stood out and was modern. Obviously it's not timeless and sounds rather awful today, but it had everything that an Eurovision winning song needed. And everything a successful entry needs today.

Oh c'mon, it was dated even back in 2001, by far not modern and it sounded awful even back then... it had nothing a Eurovision song needs if you're not into banal cheese that is.
