Moldova's act was the only memorable act for me, and that's more to do with the on-stage antics than the song. Bit of a meh Eurovision contest this year, IMO.
Very true, but the voting was as close and exciting as I can remember. France were the red-hot favourites going in and they finished in the bottom half. Jedward were second favourites and were threatening to win at the half way point before they dropped off a bit. Even the UK were top of the leaderboard after four countries gave their votes.
Personally, I thought the winners were as bland as possible. Ukraine should have won for that incredible Mystic Meg / sand artist genius thing they had.
