Had he performed it as good as this last year he might have won.

 

[Preuss]

Lmao people getting offended by this, I can’t ;;

 

[Bench]

This was so awesome!

I'm not too keen on this interval act to be honest. It's a little bit too cocky from the Swedes and making fun of others unneccessarily

I can follow that. The irony is evident, but still ...

And this year, Sweden's song is among the ones I like the least, so it's a bit ambiguous.

I will never understand how it feels to be able to win ESC at any self-chosen time like Sweden. Especially not as a German.

 

[Biste]

Haha lovely interval ! Wonderful humor!

 

[Laepo1]

I love this. What a great show! Swedes can be fun

 

[Franzilein]

Spare me this broadway sh*t and give me Cha Cha Cha in full

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

The interval act...is this self-confidence or arrogance?

 

[spinachpie]

Not a fan of Sweden songs, but MAN can they host a show! Incredible!

Semi 2 show >> Semi 1 show

 

[empo21]

i know the internet will have a field day with the 'boo all you want' screencap

Then they should boycott the event. Stay away simply. It’s ridiculous that you demand from artists that they don’t participate at Eurovision, and then you go to the same show yourself. The hypocrisy is overwhelming.

They don't necessarily demand that and this is something that is beyond the control of a random individual. A boycott doesn't work unless you manage to mobilize a very large group, again something beyond the control of regular people. Your arguments make very little sense, I also don't see how this is in any way hypocritical. They come to watch a show and very much dislike one part of it. That one part does not define the show.
