    1. Moldova

    2. Hungary

    3. The Netherlands

    4. Denmark

    5. Belgium

      Azerbaijan and Georgia are also in Asia and they competed. I enjoyed the songs sung in their native language, like Serbia. The rest of the show, including the corrupted results, I didn't enjoy so much.

        Maybe they should just include the whole world. Seems kind of arbitrary at this point.

        I'm a bit bored of the "I'm a big, beautiful, and sassy woman and just look at my brimming confidence that's totally real and not at all an overcompensation" cliche, but I guess Europe/whatever other countries they let compete isn't. Idk, maybe I'm just cynical about it, but even from a distance, it seems like the contest is largely a sham.

          Armenia is also not in Europe. I agree, the songs sang in native languages were also good and i wish that every country would do that

              Re: Eurovision 2018

              I wish the non-european countries were kicked out (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Australia and Israel). And i wish that countries in europe that have never been in the contest or werent in it this year would come back (Slovakia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Luxembourg, Kosovo (sorry Serbia), Liechtenstein). Liechteinstein might be in Eurovision 2019, so thats good. I would want Monaco and Andorra to compete too but i feel like they are too small...

                    Eurovision is not rigged! Countries vote based on the songs, not their relationships!
                    Goes to take a look at our viewer votes
                    ...
                    Okay maybe it's a bit biased..



                    Notice how we didn't give a single point to Israel. I wonder.. :ehmm:

                      We have a bunch of words from English in our language, but we've tried to make them "our own" by changing a few letters for years.
                      Maybe someone got confused with the general conjugation of nouns when seeing the word "Australia" and immidiately thought "Hey! That's an 'A'! We need to replace that with 'En'!!"
                      Or maybe we're just a bit racist, and see the country as European Aliens.. Who knows. ;)

                        lol, nice conspiracy.
                        When the viewer-votes got announced, and they started from the bottom, it was like a wet slap to the face of any Australian.
                        Never has the European population been taking a clearer stand - Australia does not belong in the Eurovision.

                        It hurt me a bit to see this popular opinion, and as you can see we were "generous" with the votes, actually giving you guys a place in our top10.
                        I wonder how this "message" was received with your population. Did you guys take offence? Did it ruin the experience for you?
                        I'm bummed if it had any negative effect, as I loved your song, and it's awesome that you guys are just as enthusiastic about ESC as we are.

                            Why Netta should, and should not, have won Eurovision 2018.
                            There, fix'd that for you!

                            You should post the publication here when it's finished.
                            I'd love to hear why you think she deserved the win, and, even more so, why she didn't.

                              So at the university I go to, there is a subject from the Arts faculty called "Eurovisions", sounds like something you guys would be interested in. Someone said the results were rigged, I guess you'd find out why/why not in this subject? I haven't taken it because I had to do other units and it wasn't my thing, but I've heard it is a fun subject.

                                I'm not sure if that was an issue at the time Isreal joined Eurovision SC, other non-European countries just outside Europe were invited too. Muslim coutries do not participate now because of Isreal.
