Who elected your candidate then? A jury or "normal" portuguese people?

Lena was elected by the (german) audience, not because she has an amazing voice (which she hasnt imho), mainly because she is somehow unique and has a hugh presence.
The girl who stood in the final with her of the german casting sow interpreted the song "satelitte" way different and showed her tremendous voice, but overall her attidute and acting was average (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sfm-BtdhcFU). From the singing POV it's better compared to lena's version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbM5l1ZPrHw

Here in Holland was a 'show' before the big festival, to decide who goes.
It was between this 16 year old girl, and an already 'known' artist, who can actually sing.

The public (audience) voted on the artist, but there also was a 'jury' (made out of people who know shit about music, but they got a television face). This 'jury' decided that the 16 year old should go, instead the known 'artist' who can actually sing.

Not that I give a shit, like gaz said: it's a big hoax, with political votes everywhere. It seems that this year it stopped abit.
 
"The vote on this gala was based on the opinion of the jury district with decision-making power of 50%, and televote responsible for the remaining 50%."

that's what it says in pt eurovision site.

btw I was checking it out and the 30 finalist songs were all in portuguese...

damn right sneez when you say "it's a big hoax, with political votes everywhere", like Portugal giving 12 points to Spain because they are our "neighbors"

I don't care much about it too, I just noticed there was the final because saw a advertisement is some site lol
turned on my tv (they were already giving the votes) and then I went to the site of eurovision and heard some of the most voted songs and also the portugese one.
 
Naja ofc it's political, if it hadn't been then the entire second column should have ended with 0 points, cuz let's be honest nobody actually liked those acts AT ALL :P

...when i was watching this Eurovision final i bet that Lena will win and personaly i think that its the best song in this contest
im happy that last 3 years my bets was good and this songs had got 1st place (not always it was imo best song, but I was predicting which song win, not saing which one is the best ;))
