The UK points in the semi-final - Cyprus? It looks like votes for novelty acts + votes by ex-pats. Ireland included.

Was anyone as surprised as I was that Germany didn't do a little better than they did?
It was actually my favourite song in the contest.

Was anyone as surprised as I was that Germany didn't do a little better than they did? I loved No No Never and it's a great song. After seeing the performance though, I had a niggling suspicion it wouldn't do well. The song came across fine but I think it was a little flat. Her vocals seemed low in the mix and, overall, the performance didn't really go anywhere. I suppose it lacked energy. And then they was eclipsed by energetic, eye-catching Danish and Russian performances. It's a great shame really. A
