A joke? To me it looks more like mockery.
Sigh. Yeah maybe I should've put it another way.
Edit: But my initial comment wasn't based on politics at all - I just don't like the song and, shame on me, I'm not a big Sergey Fan either.

I heard rumours that people were getting emotional in the press room watching the performance, and that was without sound I understand!!!

What on earth does that have to do with it?? Sergey seems like a perfectly nice guy, he isn't his government... :/
His post wasn't even political :lol:
Not nicely put but still better than your sig. So will you "what on earth" me too if I have a different opinion?
All competitors seem like perfectly nice people btw.

The same thing that his comment or Lazarev have to do with somebody's government? Nothing? :lol:

It would be amazing to see Jamala winning (and to see Sergey's face when she does xheat )

That would mean true emotion winning over cheap plastic. What a great result that would be!

In that case, what a saddening result it was last year when Armenia did not win over Sweden. Now, at last, I realize. Thank you for opening my eyes.

You have to listen to that song a couple of time to get used to it. But this is the reason it will not win. Still I like it.

Please stop engage politics if somebody dislikes Sergey's song. I know some forum members are known to be very Russia-unfriendly but as Sergey stays bookies favourite to win he'll be very gossiped person.

I appreciate Jamala for telling the tragic story of her family. Unfortunately her family was not the only one that was affected by the old regime. Let's hope this will never happen again. 1944-1989 was a dark period for Eastern Europe in general and we must remember what happened. Eurovision is the perfect stage for that message. The West and those who were outside the Iron Curtain need to understand what Ukraine and Eastern Europe went through, why we fought so much and why we must never go back to that dark and horrible place where we were.

Thank you Jamala.
