And I agree with most of them! I also had a giggle reading the finals run down from last night on this site: www.goatwithabubblegun.com Don't know if you'd be interested, but I found some of it quite amusing.

Her opera singing is of course top notch, but she did insist on doing the pop singing herself, which is a huge mistake as she absolutely cannot pull it off. Her voice won't naturally go into the lower tones. The studio version does sound a little better, actually quite passable. Ahh, Portugal. It turns out be to be my favorite. It's so genuine, and when you listen to it a few times it so grows on you. I think the acoustic version (on youtube) really shows the beauty of it. Far from boring. The lyrics are stunning as well, despite the cliche theme. Though Sweden is my home, I can’t agree that it should belong in the ‘best of’ section.

Here's what I wrote in my notes about Romania's entry: "More dancy europop. I can see what its merits might be but it entirely failed to win me over."
