wierd votes

THAT IS NOT A LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR COMPETITION..THAT OS "SONG " COMPETITION...PLEASE GIVE VOTE TO SONG U REALLY LIKE!!!!!!! EUROPE..PLS.
@he Erinch king:
i fully agree with you..i am even irritated by the fact that greece gives always 12 points to cyprus..but this happens also with other countries..please stop this!!! vote for the best song..and that is vertigo from malta ;-)
ı have noticed that norway will give points to KENAN ..maybe really hard to turkey to take points from scandinav...!!! they give points to neighbours so other's cant find point 
norway/sweeden/filland/denmark/iceland ı always laughed while voting,all years same.. never and never change!!! that s so ugly and shamed event ı think.. VOTE FOR MUSIC NOT A NEIGBOUR..PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE
but out of some mystrious miracle, on the final night Norwegen will not give more than 4-5 points to Greece and the points will go to...sweden :-)
@nikola gorgiewski:
a lot of entries are much better than the entry of FYROM..calm down a bit ;-)
heres the new video for the ark´s "the worrying kind"
http://www.musicbrig(...)eo/2635498/main.aspx
best nordic entry is iceland...
Sarbel is very good, yassu Maria is catchy and well produced and orchastrated...and Norway seem to have a good taste :-) but i think on the big ight it wont give to greece more than 5 points..it is all about geography!!
I believe that at ESC the situation will be completely different, that Norway will give 12 points not to Greece but to their neighbours. And I hope that will be Denmark, in my opinion the best Nordic entry this year:-)
belarus at the top place ???????
how that ??? that song is nothing special and no winner !!!
but i see, that the people love slovenia, and that is a WINNING SONG !!!
and greece ??? no, i don´t think it has any chance because it is similar to sakis rouvas and please remember what happened to the cypriotic sakis-rouvas-clone in 2005.
this is rubbish
this odds stink Macedonia should not be on the 33th place macedonia should be in the top 10
come one !!!!!!!!!!!!!! belguim and island are better???
horwey has a great song one of ma fav. but this odds suc.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved Crash's song, should have been the winner!
finally a result list I can relate to... obvious that I'm from Scandinavia! But IMO Greece is not on top of the list, and Denmark not even close.
Netherlands has a strong song, sadly no performance... But it's not that bad...
yes,and then 0 points from norway to greece!!!yassou maria is not the best song but I ve heared so awfull songs in this year s eurovission.........so I would say yassou maria could be easily in the top 10.
greece winning?? wel, why not? yassu maria is a very well rounded po song and sarbel is good and hot and a nice guy..if not Malta and Vertigo then at least this one!! GO sarbelito :-)
> I'm still shure that SLOVENIA will WIN this year!
I'm still sure they won't!
> I think Malta will win this year.
I think it doesn't have a chance.
> As we go more western or northern, the polls lose contact with reality.
Yes, indeed.
> I cannot believe that the Netherlands are so low!
Netherlands has done very poorly in the polls this year. I like the song,
but my expectations for it have been lowered. 
CYPRUS SHOULD BE AT LEAST IN TOP5 BUT OK

To those of you claiming this is "a joke" or "unrealistic" etc. I am norwegian myself. I have 7 of the same songs in my personal top 10. Guess it's just a matter of different taste... (and no, I do not like Malta this year, nore do I understand the fuzz about Serbia... I have Bosnia high up on my list... ). This was the votes from Norway - noone is claiming (or believing) this will be the final score. But I really do think the norwegian scores could be very much like this!
I cannot believe that the Netherlands are so low! Can't be worse than Treble last year!!!! Counting on a spectacular show by Edsilia because this is a joke Norway!!!
i am happy and sad at the same time...bad news: malta is doing more than bad lately in almost all pre votingd..good news: greece is doing very very well....i lke yassu maria and sarbel, he is good, but i love vertigo and i like olivia...
Greece at the top at a norwegian poll ? At least not the Ark but seriously, I am like Greece and many Greek ESC songs but this is just a RIcky/Sakis copy but Sarbel can`t mess with the originals. Plus the starting position is quite bad too, can`t see him win.
Yes, we probably will, Eurovision Sweden 
Just for everyone's information, the Finnish OGAE's meeting is to be on 21 April (no, I'm not a member but happen to know), so wait for an interesting vote (if they will publish it here)
Oh god, how many OGAE clubs are there? Will we get news from how every single of them has voted? That's about 30 articles about the same subject...
@mermaid
no, not when drunk but in the toilet probably 
Did they vote when they were drunk?
seriously..what's that? a joke?????????
Takk Norge, thank u to Norway, efcharistoume Norvigia! ;-)
