Congrats to Sweden. I knew the moment the song was over it was the winner. Incredible vocals.

It was good to see Ukraine being pumped up the entire show, so not really too concerned that Zelensky wasn't allowed to speak to the audience. Perhaps one of the few times it was appropriate for "no politics". But otherwise the rest of Europe/AU/IS did a great job showing brother/sisterhood towards them. Althought I thought UA's song was a big step downward from the past few entries.

My wife and I love the show. But before we could watch it, we learned Sweden had won.
It really tainted our enjoyment of the show as we did not think the song was very good or the vocals better than any number of singers.
Many other songs we thought were far more deserving and Loren was a poor choice for the winner.

Eurovision 2025 streaming live! Here are the two semifinals if you can spare 5 hours.

Why is Australia in Eurovision? Put Korea in!

Who are you picking?

The two best Eurovision songs of the last 10 years were Finland "Cha Cha Cha" and Croatia "Rim Tim Tagi Dim"

Freaking catchy AF both of them.

Neither were winners.

This year the jury votes seen to be splitting a lot more, which means the televote winner is very likely to win this year.

we won! Honestly, I will die happy if I never get to hear that song again ... terrible. But I guess that makes it a worthy ESC winner.

Doctor Who did a Eurovision tie-in episode a couple of weeks ago, people went nuts for it.
