Well, I don't know how I don't know why
but Bilan won the Eurovision 2008....
I really don't understand HOW = )
Even I'm Russian I don't like him and his songs.
But I'm glad he did win ^^'''
So welcome to Moscow the next year!
It isn't working anymore, this competition. :/
The guy who was commentating it for England even said "If it's tactical and political voting that's going on, Russia will win" before he had even sung his song.
Congratulations on your country winning, though.
What am I supposed to say! We didn't even make it to the finals just because Europe doesn't appreciate techno!
I agree that there's a kind of a regional principle by which everyone votes. But then again it can't be completely political. If it was, the winner would have been the same every year.
And about the Russian song, Ñ Ñ…Ð¾Ñ‡Ñƒ тебе поздравлÑÑ‚ÑŒ Ñ Ð¿Ð¾Ð±ÐµÐ´Ð¾Ð¼! Ðто в любом Ñлучае победа! (learner. Ignore mistakes, please...)
And finally my personal opinion is that Плющенко's performance was.... wow! I'd have voted just because of him, you know!

Don't get me wrong, but all those ukraïn/russia/poland/etc. vote on each other. It just ain't a competition anymore.
Congrats anyway
tgtg Says:
It's all got a little too political for me but maybe that's because I'm from UK and I don't think our song deserved to come last...again.
) some talent is definitely needed!
Well done for winning though (even if you don't like the song
