Just like with the semi-finals, this is the live thread for the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
As there is (to my knowledge), no Lemmy equivalent to https://reddit-stream.com/, the best alternative is refreshing the website about once after each song. This should still be okay for now as this community is relatively small.

Thanks to @You@feddit.de, there are some links for the Grand Finale:

Feel bad for norway and estonia

Baby Lasagna channeling Rammstein

[–] Freeman@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Felt that as well, the song slaps.

And also Joost had his own Rammstein moment...

Austria is peak 90s eurodance

[–] Freeman@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yea but "ram di dam dam" is just too ridiculous imo. Love the show, the song, dance and everything but that text sounds like satire of the genre

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Easy to sing along and speaking of ridiculous: heard of Scooter? How much is the fish?

[–] Freeman@feddit.de 0 points 3 months ago

Ofc i heard of scooter

I wanna like her so much and I really love the song, but unfortunately her live singing performance is mediocre at best :(

The booing on israels jury was heavy

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Ireland is quite unique and should get extra points for a their original performance.

[–] harry315@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

After their performance, I feel so... peaceful. Just as if some dark spirits left my body, idk

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Successful exorcism

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

My vote is for Ireland or Estonia, I m not sure ýet

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Wait for Croatia

[–] harry315@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Armenia has a much better performanca than in the semi

My tier list:

Top

  • Ireland. Bambie Thug is a legit talent beyond this competition. I look forward to what they do after this.
  • Spain. A classic. Top five, possible winner.
  • Switzerland. Fun mix of genres, great performance.
  • United Kingdom. The song grew on me, and the staging is still amazing.
  • Croatia. Energetic, though there are a couple better performances in this competition.
  • Greece. Sounds like Mediterranean reggaeton in the best way. Is it my imagination, or was the camera work better during the semis?
  • Netherlands. It wasn't the very best, but it was a first-tier Eurovision song.
  • Estonia. Lots of fun.
  • Norway. Great song, great staging.
  • Armenia. Fun song, energetic performance.

Mid

  • Lithuania. Upper mid tier. Decent dance song, great performance. I like the outfits too.
  • Luxembourg. Upper mid tier. Solid song, decent staging
  • Sweden. I like it better the second time around, at the top of the mid tier.
  • Finland. They're trying something fun, at least
  • Ukraine. Another song that grew on me, but still mid-tier.
  • Serbia. A very good, though not outstanding, song.
  • Italy. Nice beat, awesome graphics, bland song and dancing.

Lowest

  • Austria. Nice boots she's wearing though.
  • Portugal. Nice masks on the dancers though
  • Cyprus. Unimaginative.
  • Slovenia. Ok song, but there's a lot of competition.
  • Israel. Everything else aside, it isn't that great of a performance.
  • Germany. ISAAK is giving it 100% but it isn't that great a song, and the staging is bland.
  • Georgia. This is fine.
  • France. He has a great voice, though.

We seem to have quite the same taste, how do you feel about Estonia, Switzerland, or Slovenia?

[–] trolske@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I'm slightly offended (and very amused) that your bottom tier is called Germany.
I mean it's true, but don't kick us when we're down

Edit: Please change it back! It was the perfect Freudian typo

[–] trolske@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Germany already got more than 0 points!
This is a weird ESC

[–] trolske@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Did anyone catch what the Ukrainian artists shouted at the end?

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Congratulations Nemo!

The final running order has 26 entries although i am sure i read that it would be 25 after the NL disqualification.

I dont see NL on the list though. How can it be 26 without NL?

Edit: nr 5 is removed but not replaced.

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

They didn't change the numbers of the contestants. I guess for technical reasons and to keep confusion small, after the numbers were already announced.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Switzerland is just really great. How he’s able to sing while leaning backwards and spinning on the disk, it’s insane. And additionally to that, it’s the hardest song of the year (I’d even say by quite some margin). His singing talent is insane and I love the song itself as well. It’s just beautiful.

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Definitely getting the love from the jury vote.

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Deserved in my opinion. And they seem to be Conchita's favourite too.

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Could have done without AIBBA and I'm underwhelmed by Loreen.

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

Hello and good evening.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I’ve never been that sad at the beginning of an ESC before :(

[–] You@feddit.de 0 points 4 months ago

I went grocery shopping today and got myself some extra treats for today. The theme they have in common: Comfort and unhealthy.
