Sweden SWEDEN 2018 - Benjamin Ingrosso - Dance You Off

Taking away I agree on this with you but that comment and Sergey Lazarev as your fave with same "problem" is kinda dissonance
Sergey's song was very popular and No 1 in the odds even before his Staging was revealed so that's a moot point. A LOT of people loved his song, regardless of the Staging. I never claimed that it was some kind of master piece and I'm not saying those who like Dance you Off are weird or wrong. You can make the same case here, some people will like this, with or without Staging. Would this have won MF if it wasn't for the superb visuals, that is my point.
So Alma from France last year won't be starring as the lead character in my wet dreams anymore 
Benjamin Ingrosso 
And obviously the song is absolutely amazing.. I'm thrilled that Felix, my favorite, came in second, and with a winner like this... Then I'm perfectly fine with Norway choosing a crap song; still a very good night

You know, that im German and changed my Flag since Eesti Laul, right?
No, I don't. Your nick implies "Real Estonian". You could pretending to be German, while you are an expat Estonian, right?
Anyways, Estonians keep saying the nicest things about Sweden, they are gloating about Sweden's winning chances, while the rest of Europe is fuming and puking their guts out. I don't get it.

lmao all of those zeroes. not even i gave poor ingrosso a zero.
anyway, sweden made the... least wrong? choice. i am still not confident at all that he can be top 10 just brcause SWEDEN, but if he did he would be a lot more palatable than frans or robin as a 5th placer. i think he has an even more uphill battle to do well than robin - ingrosso might suffer if juries really are changing their mindset post-salvador, and robin had the benefit of having a fun gimmick in a very poor year for televote-gtabbing gimnicks. dance you off is visually impressive but not really FUN enough to really lock the televotes down. but we will see.
also PARTY VOICE LAST IN THE TELEVOTE? SWEDEN IS CANCELLED. RELINQUISH YOUR STATUS AS A COUNTRY IMMEDIATELY DO NOT PASS GO DO NOT COLLECT 200 JURY POINTS

lmao I love seeing salty people in the comments. He was the clear winner from the start, best song hands down and all you people saying it's bad already know as well as I do that it's gonna be in top 10 for sure. It's a modern pop song with MJ/JT vibes and fancy visuals, of course it's gonna do well.

People calling this crap don’t like the mainstream top lists then. You don’t have to like it, but you can’t deny it has a quality to it. It’s the child of Daft Punk, Justin Timberlake and The Weeknd

Never thought about that
No the Name has nothing to do with
Flag faking is a crime btw.

It's annoying at times... 2pts. I can imagine all the LED screens surrounding him and 5 backing vocals singing instead of him

The exact word would be rip-off, not "child". A child is something that lovers get after cuddling a lot.

It's very rare that I give 0 points, but this time it was deserved for me. Dance You Off actually pisses me off with how bad it is. It's all slick production and choreographed flashy stage show and zero song substance.
It's always a matter of taste and if someone can explain why they give 0 points it's okay. I for myself like the production and the stage show so I can only disagree with you, but I respect your opinion. Look at that sleek bassline!
What I wanted to point out is just that I noticed some general hate against Sweden and probably some other countries - every winner from tonight's final would have gotten a lot of 0 points, and not every song is that bad. (And I think that this could happen to every country having success for a longer period)At least we got a polarizing song.
