In general that ESC was boring! A lot of songs made me sleepy. (I close my mouth with hand: “Yawn!”) There is almost nothing to comment. But I try to do it;).
First of all I write about song from 2nd semifinal.

The Netherlands Sieneke – Ik Ben Verliefd (Sha-La-Lie)

This is one of my fav songs from that ESC. It’s so positive and merry. I like that type of song. It has only one big minus – it’s Dutch. I didn’t understand it:(. But… I found its translation into English at the Net and I thought once again that it’s good song.

Let me start to talk about final.
Here I don’t comment songs without any English lyrics. Because if I don’t understand song I couldn’t say anything about it. Also I consider that it’s disrespect to listener, IMHO.

1. Azerbaijan Safura – Drip Drop

She looks like wife whom angry and doesn’t like her husband. I don’t like it.

2. Spain Daniel Diges – Algo Pequeñito (Something Tiny)

3. Norway Didrik Solli-Tangen – My Heart Is Yours

…

Прошло Евровидение - и я чувствую в себе силы, желание и просто-таки необходимость поделиться своим впечатлением. По форме отчета - все как и в прошлом году.

Единственное, для затравки - судьба прошлогодних конкурсных песен в моих чартах. Всего я выявил 11 композиций (из 42, прозвучавших в Москве). В скобках - место, занятое в моем рейтинге
1 (1). Alexander Rybak - Fairytale - 64
2 (1). Yohanna - Is It True? - 37
2 (3). Flor-de-Lis - Todas as Ruas do Amor - 37
4 (7). Andrea Demirović - Just Get Out of My Live - 17
В сумме же с прошлогодними баллами это дает следующий обновленный рейтинг:
1. Норвегия (16,4). 2. Исландия (13,7). 3. Португалия (13,2). 4. Черногория (10,7). 5. Эстония (9,8). 6. Словения (9,3). 7. Великобритания (9,1)...

Теперь вернемся к 2010-му. Традиционное подведение итогов в некоей новой стране (условно назовем ее New Romania) непосредственно по итогам голосования в финале:
Россия - 12, Кипр - 10, Албания - 8, Турция - 7, Армения - 6, Румыния - 5, Франция - 4, Израиль - 3, Украина - 2, Беларусь - 1.
