My main issue with Sweden winning honestly isn't even about the song, it's the fact that the professional jury consistently rewards non-offensive pop music and punishes entries that are even slightly out there. Sweden just happens to be very good at making non-offensive pop music, which is why they win the jury vote so often.
The problem with that is that it encourages countries to send in non-offensive pop music in order to appeal to the professional jury, most of which will be very mediocre and boring to watch. If the people didn't get a vote, we wouldn't see entries like Finland or Croatia, and that's bullshit! Those kinds of performances are what people watch eurovision for! Nobody wants to see a non-offensive pop music contest. We want originality! We want fun! We want the professional jury to go fuck themselves!
Anyway cha cha cha should have won and I will die on this hill

Audience tonight is SO in it for Finland. Sweden's announcement as winner wasn't really met with LOUD happy screaming, there was booing and cha cha cha chanting mixed in the entire time. There's a clear fan winner.
Nobody needs this generic pop song.

If Sweden (derogatory) wins this because of the Jury, I'm going to fucking commit jaywalking.
