What I couldn't understand is that the organization itself has always been so childish and weird. Other cultural organizations of Europe such as UEFA are super cool but Eurovision Thumbs%20Down. Why? Confused

Why has it been childish and weird? At least  you dont have riots here when your "team" loses...

And who was the one who said the quote above?

If all he needs is Eurovision to respect European civilization, maybe Europe doesnt need his respect at all.

The best song was performed by Lordy  and the video-clip was super, Bulgaria's and Slovenia's song were pretty good too.
Give me a place to stand and I will move the world.

Some say that distinction through education is obtained not only through knowing a lot, but also through knowing what sort of thing you should rather not know so much about. Eurovision would be one of those.
 
I'm a bit perplexed, it seems that for the duration of these contests many Europeans suddenly lose all sense of taste.

It seems Armenia gets 13.000 votes from Turkey.

Please check the link (Turkish) : http://www.milliyet.com.tr/2007/05/16/guncel/gun09.html

TRT says they used German Digame system for SMS voting and the results:
Armenia 12 points for 13.333 votes
Bosnia 10 points for 10.884 votes
Russia 7 points for 7.101 votes

Regarding the population (70 mil.), it seems Eurovision voting is not popular in Turkey.

I for one love the song contest. We get some folk round and have a laugh watching it and remembering the ole songs from years past. This world is so serious that this panto of a song festival with Terry Wogan muttering in our ears is a fun highlight of my viewing year!

indeed, it just wouldn't be the same without Terry Wogan!

I watch it just for the commentary.



And because I have no choice...!

You shouldn't thank western Europe.No western european voted for Turkey-it was the turkish emigrands that voted.Just like with Serbia.England gave 12 points to Turkey but i doubt any real english voted for Turkey.There are just many turks in England-that's it.It's not a competition for songs but for countries."Who has more emigrands" - that's how they should name it.

9 of 10 songs sucked, as usual. I'd rather have the Turkish song represent Europe, then say, Ukraine :p

Do you really take this crap seriously?
