To be fair, the winner recieved votes from all over the place and won by a fair margin. It was a bit of a rubbish song though.
Overall it was the best Eurovision for some years. Bulgaria managed to do a reworking of an old Sheep on Drugs song, with drum interludes, the Romanians were great, Georgia were all serious and very cool with Visionary Dream, Armenia were a bit worrying, that thing that arced across the stage was nice, Andorra gave no points whatsoever to Spain, Turkey saved the UK's embarrassment (or at least a fragment of it) by having an even worse song than ours, and Wogan was as good as usual (especially the Abbot and Costello reference at the end).
That silly woman in the pink dress was very very very annoying though, and not in the least bit amusing.
