Default Unconventional/unpopular Eurovision opinions?

I think the thread title is self-explanitory.

Here's mine.

1. Euphoria was an okay Dance entry from Sweden in 2012, I don't get how it's a masterpiece, personally I felt that the Russian Grannies were more fun if the public wanted a more fun winner.

2. Hungary, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Cyprus, Croatia, Georgia, Austria, and Armenia should've all placed higher than Russia in last years Eurovision as they was all either better sung, better songs, or better performed/emoted.

3. Songs should be allowed to be more serious/political otherwise the songs will all start getting samey and thus start getting boring to listen to.

4. Norway on average have better songs than Sweden as they stick out in my memory more.

5. Hard Rock Hallelujah and Fairytale are the best Eurovision winners in recent times.

6. Whilst I do think that there's a case that Mainland Europe has a bias against the UK entries, i.e Molly finishing 17th when she delivered quality of a top 10 finish, I do also believe that most of the time the UK are sending out bad entries which are then making us finish even lower and justifying them putting abysmal entries above ours.

Loreen made it an experience and people respnded to it. It was amazing.
And I liked and supported Molly BC of Europeans saying she had a chance but I didn't hear how great it was

I don't know if this is a controversial opinion but children of the universe is one of the UK's best ever entries and an absolute choon!

Sergey is one of the worst entries of the 2010's and his staging really wasn't all that spectacular.

Jedward's "Lipstick" is the best eurovision song in history. It might actually just be THE best song in history .

Loreen's Statements is better than her Euphoria as it's less mainstream and more unpredictable.
