My main issue with Sweden winning honestly isn’t even about the song, it’s the fact that the professional jury consistently rewards non-offensive pop music and punishes entries that are even slightly out there. Sweden just happens to be very good at making non-offensive pop music, which is why they win the jury vote so often.
The problem with that is that it encourages countries to send in non-offensive pop music in order to appeal to the professional jury, most of which will be very mediocre and boring to watch. If the people didn’t get a vote, we wouldn’t see entries like Finland or Croatia, and that’s bullshit! Those kinds of performances are what people watch eurovision for! Nobody wants to see a non-offensive pop music contest. We want originality! We want fun! We want the professional jury to go fuck themselves!
Anyway cha cha cha should have won and I will die on this hill

Also, while we’re all mad about Eurovision, while that interval act of previous winners coming out and singing famous songs was cool and all and a tried and true concept, it having only famous English pop songs, no Ukrainian performers, and them even trotting out the last UK winner was such fucking slap in the face to the whole “honoring Ukraine” thing of the show?
Like, imo the only two performances in that series with rights were Imagine (strong anti-war message) and You’ll never walk alone (important song to the host city, but also thematically fitting), but the others? What the fuck were they thinking? They could have at least made them perform previous Ukranian entries?

everyone chanting cha cha cha while Sweden is leading the jury vote is literally so embarrassing for the jury like we literally do not want you
