And btw. did it happen on purpose that  Taiwan is called Republic of China in the semi's voting, but not in the final's? Had not noticed to be honest as the old ScoreWiz was used when we made the semi finals scoreboards  I will try to change it but anyway, shouldn't make a difference for now  |

Time for my comments as well... Well, congratulations to  Ireland for their 4th victory! It really is a very good song and despite the fact I didn't vote for it in the final, it was quite close to making it into my TOP 10. I am also really thankful for your   Special thanks to  Armenia for the other set of and to  Singapore for the  points, as well!  I am more than satisfied with my 17th place as I did not expect much so thanks a lot guys Congrats to  Cuba for their best result in the contest so far and to  Philippines for breaking their record too...Just a few more points and you would've made it to the TOP 10... It's sad but oh well, hopefully next time See you in Ireland! |

That was so nice to see  Philippines sitting at 3rd place even just for a bit until i slowly lose my momentum in the next few minutes (Jesus Mary Joseph why do i experience something like this for few times now) Anyway. Atleast 2 records has been finally broken for Philippines (placement and points) Thank you so much for all the votes especially to  Russia and  Malta for 12!  Quiet impressed with  Cuba, I thought they gonna flop and also congrats to Ireland!! |

The song is okay but I really don't like the lyrics and the meaning of the song. At face value, I can absolutely see your point, but personally I don't feel like she's actually affirming the things in the lyrics. I think the way the song is sung gives it a certain ironic tone which actually makes me interpret it as a condemnation or ridiculization of the empty materialist attitude described by the lyrics. I don't know if this was really the writer's intention, but somehow I got that vibe from the performance. |

My feelings tell me that I'm a bit early this time. But let's still do this. The 12 points statistics of the edition | Amount of 12 points received | Country | Received from | | 4x | Cuba |  Spain,  Canada,  Slovenia,  Austria | | 4x |  Sweden |  Italy,  ,  Samoa, Hungary | | - | - | - | | 3x |  Germany |  Iceland,  United States, Sweden | | 3x |  Greece | the Philippines,  Mexico,  Slovakia | | 3x |  Guatemala |  the Netherlands, Cuba,  Costa Rica | | 3x | Luxembourg | Moldova, Belgium,  Poland | | - | - | - | | 2x |  France |  Cyprus, Germany | | 2x | Cyprus | Ireland, Armenia | | 2x | the Philippines | Russia,  Malta | | 2x | the Netherlands | Singapore, Ethiopia | | 2x |  Serbia |  Brazil,  Azerbaijan | | 2x | Italy | Serbia,  China | | 2x | Iceland |  Australia,  Taiwan | | 2x | Russia |  Ukraine, Vietnam | | 2x |  Indonesia | India,  Morocco | | 2x | Ukraine | France,  Turkey | | - | - | - | | 1x | Ireland | Greece | | 1x | Spain | Guatemala | | 1x | Slovenia | Indonesia | | 1x | Canada |  Finland | | 1x | Finland |  Latvia | | 1x | Singapore |  Croatia | | 1x | Brazil |  Switzerland | | 1x | Moldova | South Korea | | 1x | Australia | Romania |
That means that again 25 out of 27 entries have received at least 1x . The only ones to have received none are the United States and  El Salvador. With that amount of given you're welcome to get #45 (23/26) and #55 (25/27) vibes. The usual additional information: - I may be completely wrong there, but at least since I'm publishing those 12 points statistics 4 sets of is the lowest highest count in a regular edition (if you know what I mean) beating the previous record of 5 held by #45.
- The from Spain are the first ones Cuba's ever received (which is not too difficult tho as in the earlier participation it's not exactly known as successful country. ).
- Despite her rather low finish, Luxembourg's Foxy still managed to get more than Benjamin in #55 and Seed to tree in #52 together (who both got 1).
- Since I joined it's the fourth time after Finland #31, Ireland #41 and
 Venezuela #42 that the winner receives only 1x . In those 4 cases they came from 4 different countries. - It's the 5th edition in a row one top 3 entry receives exactly 4x .

Damn it! So close!  I won't really celebrate until we reach the top 10 tbh. We've participated for far too long. We could've gotten it. Besides that, I am VERY grateful for the result (a record best for Philippines). Thank you for voting, especially Russia and Malta for your .  |

<33333 I never thought such a song would win the contest. I'm glad that I sent this singer, other than "Blood diamonds" she has other great songs too 
But I'm not disappointed either, I gave 
But it can only get better from here
