Eurovision

[Tana]

Contest has ended, but I really hurt for Russia, like their room (voted for them) and that's a result!!
It is strange that so many voted for Ukraine, it is absolutely useless song, somehow does not look it at Eurovision and quite perplexed by the winner!!
Interestingly commented vystuplanie Russia leading in the UK, she said the following: "If tomorrow in the pub, you hear that someone loudly singing the song, you know that it's me!" very nice tune, really catchy, somehow unfairly

Well, this "Finalich" got
In general, the group of Peter the presence of absolute Neformat to gatherings of gays and freaks, and indeed politicized voting system is no chance left. Ibid neighbors to vote for neighbors - Spain for Portugal, Azerbaijan from Turkey, countries of former Yugoslavia and the Baltic countries for each other. I personally voted for Armenia, because of political sympathies, but liked the song from Belgium

[Tana]

somehow unfair

question of the winner in this event is very multifaceted.
In Germany, in hindsight, were analyzed success in different planes and "clambered" a lot of different and all.
Girls and "found" and led to the victory on the young and successful television producer Stefan Raab.
Behind him stood a powerful group owning good desyatnom television channels broadcasting to the whole of western Europe.
Just for 4-5 weeks before the event girlfriend was presented on all channels in the Number of incommensurate.
Links to her video had been "driven" to all vesuschie Internet sites. Even before the race, her video was viewed 11 million people.
It produced lots of work on advertising and promotion. Even a porn video and other .....
The fact that manipulation of the outcome of a vote is possible, probably no one denies.

Manipulation of voting, perhaps theoretically possible ...., but here's Turkey - second place. I am a lover of hard and heavy and therefore supported them. It is unlikely that someone get the ball rolling, just a good song.

and Turkey was a pleasant surprise, all did much better than Germany.

fact.
Another interesting angle. I read an article today about the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 in Germany. What type of where, how and from where.
It turns out the biggest problem is money.
Contest, as such, the event economically unprofitable. The minimal "loss" is estimated at 30-40 million euros.
Previously, these things funded by the State under the aegis of political necessity or to maintain tourism.
Today, that kind of money for this purpose in Germany, no.
Ie the obvious question, "how to be?" still open.

throw a stone at me, and I liked Germany <!--~ a ~-->... pleasant teenager, easy melody + plain text - nothing special = victory.
Our Ukrainian as no surprise, and what is surprising ... in the background, and so global cataclysm sing a depression ...
