I enjoy UK forums about Eurovision, they explain the weird voting and stuff - apparently Poland always rates highly with the popular votes and this is attributed to the very large populations of migrated Polish all over the world, and always gets low jury votes because of this known imbalance.
And I would expect Australia gets votes from places as a nice neutral option - and likely the novelty, we are also quite respected for our music and taste in music.
And interesting, WE, did not vote politically or ethnically it would seem...UK probably didn't deserve 4 points and UK is the only major migrant/connected group that features in the voting, we just like a dance song Belgium delivered
RATINGS. More of us got up to join in the live excitement
It averaged 302,000 Live this year, up on 263,000 for Guy Sebastian’s tilt.
But there were actually 527,000 watching the Weatherwatch and Music in preliminary figures, when the winner was announced. In the evening it drew 407,000 down on 592,000 last year. It suggests SBS is educating more of the audience to watch and vote Live.

Dami and Ukraine featured in New York Times over weekend, with clips. Possible/likely winners - should be good for their careers

Let's hope Dami Im's global exposure via Eurovision wins her more fans. Dami really deserves it.
Great singer and a really down to earth nice person.
I had to laugh when she was being interviewed just before the finale and she was asked, how would she celebrate if she won? Dami replies "Have a lemonade with her crew"
So hardcore our Dami

The crazy voting is part of the fun.
I especially love how upset UK gets every year - regardless of how shitty the stuff they keep sending is.
Ukrain's fuck you to Russia was so awesome this year.
The political undertones and all that is awesome - and I think we gain from old hatreds, we get the oh well give it to Aussies, I have cousins out there

I think they should start preparing themselves for a possible zero in 2017.
