Yes, congrats!

I didn't have any real favourites this year... but Lena was quirky and "different" enough to be a worthy winner. I would have been happy also if Turkey had won:

Blah. I haven't cared since they started allowing countries to sing in any language. 

But sure, congrats to Germany.

I hoped someone had kicked his teeth in for that stunt... not funny at all, as for the participants it is also about competition. If he really wanted his 10 seconds on television, he could have jumped in at the end when they were giving points, or between songs when the hosts were introducing etc... and get his audience then. This was about utter lack of respect for participants to ruin a performance like that.

Then again, the Spanish group really kept their cool nicely when that happened. I wasn't even sure it was Jimmy Jump until he jogged out of the stage with two security guards chasing him

Missed the Eurovision this year, sily me was watching movies and had forgot it 

Glad to see Germany won though. Always liked their entries, they seem to have something different every year.

Still think Germany's 2006 entry is one of the best ive heard on EV:

I really liked the French entry.
I think they created the semi-official song for the FIFA world championship this year.

What a great song to yell in a stadium.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I haven't followed the song contest for years. I only watched it once or twice in the 90s. I first heard the German entry after I have read on Wikipedia that Germany has won and I followed the link to Youtube.
I was thinking then that it is nothing special and wondered how this could have won. The other entries would have to be really bad (as far as I know Germany always had a hard standing at the song contest because there are so many other countries who give their points to each other no matter how their songs are).
But watching the clip here in this thread again, I have to admit that it is catchy.

I've also lost track. Back when I was a kid, travelling in Europe, this was the winner:

Poupee De Cire, Poupee De Son

Ahhh the memores of those days - the wine, the women, the songs! (heh heh ...  )

Based on the clips in this thread, I don't think that UK entry deserved to be last. The guy isn't a really dynamic performer, but the song was decent.

Though I hear Eurovision is generally more about the politics than the music, so I don't know as the actual song really matters that much.
