About the male top 5: I think it's just a coincidence. Last year the trophy was between two females, and so was the case in 2016. 2014, 2013 and 2012 all had multiple female acts in the top.

About Israel: the song just does not sound as good live, and I'm not talking about the singing voices. It's something about the instrumentals?

I can't believe they actually changed the official score after it has been given!

What would they do if the change had affected the winner? Would they have made a public statement like "Sorry but we have to take your victory back.... Italy really won!" ? Anyone got any idea?

It has been changed before, 3 times, 1976, 1996 and 1998

It´s good that EBU corrected the result but I hope they realize how amateur they have looked like this year, I hope some people are replaced until next year, start with sacking Sand

[MENTION=4385]martin[/MENTION] - I can understand the frustration (but some comments is quite hilarious like many are saying "it´s corruption" and so on, have they forgotten that Sand is Norwegian? If this would have been for his own reasons, they wouldn´t have changed the result I mean)

The belarussian Jury should never have been dqed in first Place. Who cares that we knew their Top3 before?

We already know their winner for 2020. Maybe they should be disqualified again. xthink

wow, not sure it would be right to even have the correction in this case. can you imagine explaining the scoreboard later? "so this happened and soldi had more points but arcade is still the winner..."

Well many People in Norway don,t know much about ESC. Their only see that Sweden ending up higher than Norway and get mad. Also People have not understand good enough why we have juries and the historie. Also is not helping that People like Per Sundnes goes against jury. Ironic that him selv missing the chance to be in juryen because he took part in Adresse Kiev.
