Well, proves that something is really wrong with the voting system. On the other hand, I didn't really see them in top condition at the public performance, neither their singing, nor their stage presence was as good as you would expect from a group with much routine. With many teams having their little problems here and there too, they could have been fifth or fifteenth without the jury votes.

If I remember, what happened to tatu was, that they couldn't sing at all. Only 2 points behind the winner with that performance, that was an ESC miracle!

Being behind two jumping balls with cat grass hair-cut is embarrassing for any other participant too.

That was strange. With their performance I didn't expect them in the top 10 at all. There was nothing which could convince, not the song, not the singing, not their stage play. It was even for this weak competition below average. I wouldn't be surprised if there was big racket behind the curtains.
