In order for the prophecy to be fullfilled....hold the contest in Lausanne. I want Croatia to win next year. :cool:
Why?
Is there any other country in Europe besides Croatia?
They just had their moment and they will have their next big opportunity to try to win in a very long time.

Is there any footage showing how that thing he's standing on works? Who built it, who came up with it, how did he practice with it? I've seen surprisingly little about it, considering how everyone who saw it comments on it.
Knowing that two guys had to move the disc manually and time everything perfectly without being seen on camera makes the staging more impressive.

I didn’t want Israel to win either! I think that would have made the wrong statement although I am pro Israel. I have always said it wouldn’t be good if Israel wins this contest. I didn’t like the massive televote score for Ukraine 2022 either although the song was ok.

In the final days, based on the music and performance in the GF, I wanted Croatia to win with a little little little tiny almost invisible margin ;) ahead of Nemo. I thought it would be fair if someone who was neutral all the time got the crown. Plus he was the only one in both jury and televote top 3 so that would have been a little bit fairer. But I am happy for Nemo!!!

Can’t deny though that I am happy for Eden‘s 2nd place in the public. That was a statement she needed.

Wow, thanks for providing this! This is actually very tricky because the movements of the people in black has to be so on point. I assumed the platform was remotely controlled mostly, so its very cool to see that it indeed wasn't.

Oh shit, totally did not realize that :eek:
I thought everything with the disc was programmed automatically and Nemo "only" had to time his movements properly.

You would expect the country that came out on top when it comes to the mean average wealth per adult at a whopping $685,230 to use that technology

Videos like these remind you that the camera and props people are the unsung heroes of Eurovision
People often say that it's way better on TV than in the arena but I absolutely loved seeing all the production behind the scenes when I was at semi 1 last year, the herd of stage hands running at superhuman speeds is crazy

This is a strange one.

Jamala didn’t win the televote or jury vote
Loreen won the jury vote and was second in the televised.
Nemo won the jury vote but only ended 4th in the televote.

I knew Switzerland would win months ago. I just didn’t think it would be as unwanted as it was in the televote.

Jamala - she didn’t win either but ended 2nd in both.
Nemo - he won the jury vote but wasn’t close with the televote.

It’s not the 2010s - the jury isn’t needed as much now. I think juries have too much power in a contest where the people should have the power.

IMO - he didn’t deserve to win - purely because I don’t think 5 people should have the (almost) same power as 100,000 televotes

Nemo was 5th even in the televote, not 4th!

I am really happy for him and I before the GF I was fine with him winning but seeing him only coming 5th while Croatia was in both jury and televote top 3, even winning the televote…. It seems a little bit unfair now, yes.
