    That’s rubbish. Sitting there on their phones all night on the Colombian marching powder with a face on. Totally undeserved.

    Never heard the Italian song, so I'll have to judge it now.

    Switzerland was best tune though.

    Really like the winners. Check them out challenging other countries behind the scenes to table tennis and even learning the dance to Ukraines song.

    They got off their phones eventually.

    its strange a song that doesnt even have a chorus win's. And then El Diablo is on the right hand side of the results. Ming boggling but then again the bookies were right so what do I know.

    Poor UK. I liked the Swiss song, but good on Italy.

    The voting announcement process is utterly brilliant, nail-biting to the end

    Thought Italy were ok, nothing overly memorable, but a lot of Europeans appear to love heavy metal I guess.

    Ireland need to send a nice death metal band next year methinks.

    I'll be honest I don't love the winning song(It's not my type of music) but as long as Malta didn't win I'm happy!

    Yes it is, how else can you explain Italy winning it? Did well with both jury and public and no accusations of neighbourly voting are valid.

    If it means more rock next year, then that's not a bad thing.

    If you were entering a song to win if you looked back at the last 10 winners you wouldn't know what in the jaysus the voters would like.

    But strangely enough the best song usually wins each year.
