It's pretty sad, that everyone just cares about neighbour voting when it comes to the allocation draw... Why can't people just vote for their favourite, why are there so many neighbour votes ? I don't see any reason, why I should vote for our (many) neighbours if they have bad songs... And please don't tell me, that the people just like the songs of their neighbours. Sometimes okay, but I can't believe that you really like every year the same countries (Greece-Cyprus, Turkey-Azerbaijan, Scandinavia, Ex-Yugoslavia, Ex-Sovjets, Spain-Portugal, UK-Ireland)  I don't think it's really easy to understand if your country is every year automatically qualified for the grand final.  |

because in great part it's not voting for neighbours, it's people from neighbouring countries (     for  , for example) voting for the country they came from. On the other hand, neighbouring countries may also have a strong cultural bond, their representatives might be known and loved, which would obviously help to gain some "neighbour points". |

But I think it's also a case of nationalism. I see it more happening in Balkan or Eastern European countries then here in Western Europe. |

I also have some roots to Sweden, I still don't see any reason for voting for them if I don't like their song And at least in Germany, all the Eurovision artists (from us and also from other countries) are pretty unknown... The only known artist of 2014 is maybe Conchita  |
