Today it were the semi-finals of Eurosong and "big suprise", almost every eastern-european country is selected for the finals. Don't get me wrong, it's good that they participate, but voting isn't fair anymore these days.
5 countries already were selected for the finals: France, the UK, Germany, Russia and Ireland I believe. But is it fair that those countries always are in the finals. I don't think so. For me it would be logical that the BeNeLux (Belgium-Netherlands-Luxembourg) would be allowed there too, because those are the countries who started Europe.
But yeah, that isn't fair either in the end. So why should not all the countries fight for a plce in the finals?
And also, why voting on bad songs? Not all eastern-european songs were good, some were bad, really bad! If people just voted for the songs they actually liked and not because that country is close too them, Eurosong would be more fair no?
The last years, Eurosong is starting to be bullshit, we don't get great groups out of it like Abba, Celine Dion, Johnny Logan and others anymore. Is Eurovision still a fair contest? In my opinion: NO
What do you think?
