    This swedish song has lots of Finnish in it!

    Including some swear words 😁 I like it!

    Don't think Sweden will win but their consistency of high standard song is commendable.

    Sweden are Eurovision.

    I don't think this'll win. A bit too novelty IMO.

    Yeah they are Swedish Finns!

    This country established its own government – hopelessly imperfect though it may be – to serve and vindicate the needs of Irish people, first and foremost.

    The electorate are a huge part of the problem. You put shite in, you get shite back.

    Sweden: I like that they sent something very different from their usual kind of entry….but I just don't get the appeal of it. 😐️

    Good act - but would be well below a winning song ?

    Damn. Even when they send a goofy song, the Swedes take it seriously.

    This is something that Finland could have sent.

    No complaints from me if they win again. Very good production and staging.

    Intermittently popping in and out of watching this. Never heard the Irish song, but it must have been some cack to not qualify having heard some of the $h1t€ on stage tonight.

    Another one these odds on favorites I just don't get the hype for.

    They filled a stadium for a watch party. Wow.

    The atmosphere in that stadium is 100 times better than in the actual arena 😮

    Think they have it wrapped up. Once the Baltic bloc voting mafia gets going it will be done.

    Well, that's the fav I can see why it is

    I saw some YT video dissecting it the other day and yer man (music teacher) said it has everything in it to appeal to all demographics

    Portugal is nice but meh.

    Denmark is good for a club but so generic.

    Great fun from Sweden, and catchy - but I'd hate to see it win.

    Not a winner song. Compared to both songs Loreen sang and other Swedish winners, its crap. Tommy cash style, top 5-10.

    They also just sang another swedish song after the swedish song - that was out of order

    Not sure, out to evens on exchange but some big lay bets, though it's definitely between them and Austria

    This is why RTE dont want to win it again. To ensure the security of all the people that came would bankrupt them.

    Watch party talks to two Swedish fans, plays famous Swedish song, after Sweden have just performed…. 🤔

    Surely a tad overkill?

    Ya I think Eurovision every year is basically a massive money laundering operation they use once a year !!

    Another big favourite, I automatically love it beacuse it's in French
