I voted for the Belgian song because it's nice, it should have won, I just downloaded it on Kazaa (Sanomi - Urban Trad), but they had only the direct support of France while for Turkey voted all the Turks (and even Arabs/Muslims) living in Austria, Belgium, France, Bosnia, Germany, the Netherlands. These guys understand nationalism in a poor way, voting their national just because of that, not for the song and voice. These votes clearly gave them the points they needed to win.
The same disgusting nationalism was seen in Greece - Cyprus, they voted the other with the maximum points, which they have always done. They don't even realize how ridiculous they are.
Other friendly votes were: Portugal for Spain - maximum, Iceland for Norway, the Scandinavian countries among them, the Baltic states among them, Germans and Austrians for the Poles just because they sang also in German.
That's why the Italians didn't participate anylonger, it's not a fair contest.
Btw, the British guy and girl really didn't have a voice to sing that song, and the song was not good, so no wonder they didn't get any points.
