This just screams "amateur" from start to end. A mess that somehow, isn't the worst entry of this year contest. 1 point.
And we have a winner of the wooden spoon. The worst entry of this year by far. What a confusing mess.
Mr. Rambo and me,have to disagreeYeah, this is the most unique ESC entry so far, without a doubt

It's very messy, but it's got a lovely message, and it's taught me that Georgia has hippies which is nice. It does need a bit more life though, at the moment it seems like six friends just met up and decided to have a singsong.

Omg wth?! This is awful and less than I expected, it sounds like someone put snippets of about 1,000 songs together!

I really had a hard time listening through this twice. I am afraid I will not give it any third listening. I have never liked contemporary jazz; which I guess is the closest genre to this?
Good music should evoke feelings. A good song can make me feel sad or melancholic, blue or even make be cry. Or it can make me feel happy, light-headed and make me smile. Or it can even make me wanna dance (remember I am norwegian, it takes a lot for me to wanna get up and shake my body)!! Good music can also be sexy, infatuating or make me wanna.... A good 3 minutes ESC song can arise a lot of different emotions in me - and they can all be good!!
Some songs leave me just untouched, or they leave me even annoyed by their bad vocals, their bad arrangements or infantile lyrics...
But a 3 minute piece of music should NEVER evoke only the feeling of distress in me! And distress and stress are the only emotions I get listening to Georgia 2014. That is NOT a good thing, believe me. And I do NOT want to let my poor heart go through those 3 minutes of pure distress once again, not if I can help it....
I am sorry. So far this is the worst of the lot - in a year where many songs are fighting for the bottom of my list...

Messy??? This??? 
This is just BRILLIANT music!!!
But to an untrained ear (or in this case MANY untrained ears 
) jazz/fusion CAN seem very messy. 
There is no mess about it AT ALL. But as always, jazz doesn't follow structural rules of Verse, Pre-Chorus, Chorus, Bridge and so on as popular music do. I love the syncopated beat in jazz that often make people dizzy and therefor they think it's a messy song. Syncopated beat can make it hard to anticipate the beat and make it sound like different songs in one, if you don't FEEL the music. But this song isn't really THAT hard to follow.
I love it even more cause they have really good musicians, lovely singer and also mix etnic and musical components in the song. SIMPLY LOVELY!

Georgia 12 points without a doubt. 
Sorry, this just ain't making any sense to me. It's like they've taken a soul-pop melody that's pretty dull and unremarkable by itself, and added all sorts of ethno-jazz things around it, with no relation to the main melody making the end result a complete mess. I can picture something similar to Rambo Amadeus or Homens da Luta's performance with this, not that it would make it better, just that it's what i'm expecting.
