The Vision: Eurovision

Loreen, representing Sweden this year at the 57th Eurovision Song Contest in Baku, Azerbaijan won with her club track Euphoria. She led early on in the voting, challenged only by Russia's fun grannies and the host nation Azerbaijan.


Engelbert Humperdinck opened the contest with 'Love will set you Free" finished second from last. The 76 year old representing Britain had his lucky pendant, which was given to him by Elvis Presley, but it didn't prove lucky! He has sold 150 million record worldwide, received just 12 points in total, just above Norway.


The UK has not won since 1997 and has come last thee times in the past ten years!


Loreen racked up a massive 72 points on the leader board, leaving a trail of disappointed contenders in her wake.


"I love you so much. Thank you for believing in me," the 28-year-old Swede told her 


supporters as she took to the stage to sing one final time.
Euphoria has already topped the charts in five countries, including Sweden and neighbouring Finland. Norway had the dubious honour of last place.

"I wouldn't have been able to do it without you."

Bagpipes, blindfolds and water fountains all featured in a typically extravagant contest, as well as a celebrated group of Russian pensioners, who performed Party for Everyone, a cross between a traditional folk tune and a dance track, to rapturous applause.

Ireland, who were represented by Jedward for the second year in a row, came 19th - with 46 points - an unexpected slump on their previous performance in 2011, which saw them come eighth.

Their performance of pop track Waterline closed with the 20-year-old Grimes twins jumping into a fountain in the middle of the stage.

Cutie Roman Lob from Germany certainly got my vote, so did Norway! Check some of the videos of last nights happenings:

Cyprus

Germany 

Sweden

Hungary

Russia

Norway

Serbia

Ireland

So theses are just some of the acts last night. Personally I think for Germany they should have brought Dennis Egel (you know the one from BGGT with the massive golden wings), although I really like Roman! What a name! 

Who did you like the most?

I liked Hungary, Germany and definitely Cyprus - what a beat!
