This is extremely good news for ESC.
I agree 100% ! It seems like Eurovision can really produce hits, after Rybak and Lena, now Sweden, but it is doing much better in the big markets, Uk, France and Germany… wow ! I’m happy!
TS,TS,TS and why when we all were saying that before ESC you were almost laughing at us and you told in Germany nobody speaks about Loreen and that her entry is like with music from 90s, that she tries to presents her entry as smth new and actually it isn’t new at all ( can copy/paste those comments I know where they are so you can call me lire as much as you want
)! TS,TS,TS I’m utterly speechless and surprised with your horrible attitude! :/
STOP IT! You are completely obnoxious! Just enjoy that you were right all alone, but don’t rub it into everyone’s face! That is really annoying!
Hmmm you act like Aliyev president of Azerbaiajn now, hmmm to stop and in CAPITAL LETTERS! WOW very nice
I just say what he told me earlier and in what arrogant way, and what he tells now!
And you are defending him, and attacking me, and i stay cold and calm TILL THE END, and he most important showing your fairness as the host in YOUR OWN blog to the “audience” …
feel free to delete, but everybody saw them! KISS!
Marko, I hope you will find something in your life that fulfills you and gives you joy so you don’t need to give yourself joy by hurting other people. I will watch your comments in the coming days, and if they stay unacceptable I will take the reasonable steps after consulting hulluna as well. I will not comment to your posts anymore and that’s that.
Have a good day!
You too!
Of course Mr. Aliyev, punish me if I say truth!
Thanks a lot. I feel so silly atm, I even did my best to persuade Morgan to return here after he had left because of Marko … Well, at least Morgan came back.
You silly thing, I still stand by everything I have said. Just because it is popular doesn’t mean that I must think that it is innovative or a masterpiece. But I respect other people’s taste, which is a civilised attitude that seems to be totally alien to you. And I want the best for ESC. Get off my back, please, you really behave like a troll these days. And yes, I might sound harsh these days but the reason is a very simple one. I have let you have it your nasty way for far too long. I should have listened to so many people who told me that you were a hater and a hopeless case but I have been a rather naive guy all my life, hoping for the best for far too long. It is such a pity that you seem to be utterly unable to breathe without spilling hate and insults everywhere. And that’s it. Bye, enjoy life! I won’t fight anymore and will ignore your silly and tedious attacks from now on.
Hmmmmm chart friendly ESC would die in 5 years and how good can be now this that the winner is the best in the charts everywhere?? I dunno why I’m troll, because I say what you have said t me few days ago and what you say now? TS,TS,TS, your behavior is worse than any dictator in the World! :S Aliyev is baby for you!
And I can also find your comment where you told me you don’t care for charts at all, and if ESC was chart contest it will die in 5 years, YOU SAID EXACTLY that, so how it can be good news for ESC now, you want ESC to die in 5 years??? :/
Mexico ? really ? Loreen is going up
!
Perhaps because of MyEurovisionDiary, which is a Mexican site …
Can one site do something like that ?
But Luxembourg as well..It’s really stranger how esc songs seem to enjoy relative success there yet they do not make the brave decision to come back..I know they have financial issues with EBU but still..anyway..I don’t know why Euphoria has not..scored yet in Belgium though
We did give her 12p..
*it’s really strange
It probably has… I just don’t have information about Belgium.. as I said… I think she is #1 in way more countries!
I would check but I don’t have access to my itunes application right now..
found it! #1 of course ^^
Thanks
! I just arrived home and was about to give you an update on that
! So excited !
Haha, I love how Euphoria is 1st or 2nd in all Eurovision countries’ charts, expect for Italy where she is 39th. And Italy was also the only country that didn’t give her any points in the final.
@ euroviison times
And you can’t tell me I lie this time, and that is why you are very angry, because it’s so obvious i don’t lie! :0
And I suggest you to watch other discussions of me as well, I had so nice and friendly discussions with many ppl here in just 2 previous days!
But I can’t point out what he told me few days ago and what he says now! Hmmmm…I wonder why? Why is that so bad?
She absolutely rules Germany:
Euphoria = 100%
2nd = 35% of Euphoria
3. 30%
4. 26%
5. 23%
6. 22% (Roman)
This will be a number 1 hit in Germany!
Plus she is now in the Top 10 in France!
And you also asked me before final, how I was sure it will be soooo popular n Germany?? And?
ur missing the UK download album charts ESC album is at #5
That’s great news but i can’t say i’m surprised.The signs were here all this time.Good luck Loreen!Go and make esc community proud of our winner!
It’s great that Sweden won,a great song and performance on the night. Sad that Spain and Italy did’nt come 2nd and 3rd and horror that Russia came 2nd and bigger horror that Serbia came 3rd but cheered Russia for taking 2nd from Serbia.
When the BBC(UK) picked ” The Hump ” to sing for the UK I said that this was a publicity stunt that would go wrong and I was right.
The final was ok but the presenters were terrible and I think 3 hosts are too much.The interval act would have been ok if it were not for the so called singer related to the president.
E.S.C. 2013 in Sweden is great news and next years presenters have got to be better that the 3 muppets we had this year.
BBC (UK) learn fron Sweden/Spain/Italy and a few other countries and get a more modern approach to the contest.In the UK we did not have a choice on who would sing for us but selecting a singer internally is ok but when this is done at least let us select the song. Belgium internally selected a singer but did give it’s public the chance to pick the song even if it was only between 2 songs but they at least had a vote on the song but in the UK we did’nt get that chance.
WELL DONE SEWDEN.
its so strange Sweden won and the only one song in swedish language didnt even make in to the final.. yes I know its about the whole package, so dont be surprised if you see King Kong stage next year
its me again, why should I log in everytime I want to put a comment here, grrrrrr
Heh, true. In terms of fairness, Sweden should go on and sing in Finnish next year, since they won’t have to worry about qualifying anyway
Good news!
We are in EUPHORIA!!!!
Love you, Loreen!!!!
Can’t wait your album!!!!!
Rybak was number one everywhere on those same charts in the days after he won in 2009. But it didn’t last very long. While I admit this year’s winner has more commercial potential, only longevity on the charts will determine whether or not that potential is realized.
He wasn’T #1 in the UK!
When will it be in the United states? I can’t find it on iTunes. Please help I love this song
