Russia was only favourite to win because of their staging and the effects.. we need something like that.

I wouldn't say that's exactly true; the song was favourite to win before the staging or effects had been planned. But you're definitely right about us doing something a bit more special.

It's something we lack off tbh. And like Shaun said we someone with some fan base.. The Spice Girls (unrealistic) would be perfect imo.

Not only that but due to Russia being Soviet Union with lots of today´s countries being part of it at one time in the past and then collapsing, they have a multitude of bordering countries who vote for them just because they share them same border with them.

Ie Russia has lots of neighbour countries + slavian countries that usually vote for them regardless (because of shared history and similar culture) of whatever the song is or whatever the performance is.

Even if Russia sent a person to do fart noises for 3+ minutes, they would almost certainly be guaranteed at least a top 10 spot.
