They're leaking Melody's contracts now and trying to determine whether the TV station will sanction the singer in Spain for a breach. It's seeming to be because she refusing to be politicized and has retreated from public view for the time being (but promises a press conference at some point...). And this has made the networks/shows she was supposed to be on "first" post-competition very melty and unhappy. She is technically someone's product though and that's another discussion also.

My only thoughts is, bless them, why they'd want to be in it with all the unnecessary and grossly unfair negativity they get thrown at them.
It's not now really, in MY view, a serious song contest, it's a more fun evening with good, fair or even some bad entertainment.
However still one of the better nights on TV, it was a great night here on TIBB too.
Anything that has loads of different Countries performing together is welcomed by me.
The Israeli entry however was a beautiful song, performed extremely good by a very strong singer too and it warranted the success it achieved.
Yes I preferred Austria and Lithuania as winners myself, however as is the case most years, Israel was right up there with being a possible winner too.
Well done to them.

That's about the same energy as I watch Big Brother. Modern politics is cancerous and shows no discrimination in terms of where it intrude, infect and infest. This is the aim
So I'll enjoy what we have while we have it. The alternative is we all stand within the same room but can't look actually look at each other as human beings who generally should enjoy similar things and I'd prefer that not be the case for my children...
