We loved it!
Aside from blatant rip offs of Rag’n’Bone Man and David Guetta feat Sia, the Eurovision provided us with its usual mixture of tunes, pageantry and absolute insanity.
While only one country can be the winner, there’s a strong case to be made the we – the public – are the true winners from this night.
After all, since when has the Eurovision ever been about music?
Here’s some of the more memorable and batshit crazy moments.

Everyone else can see the Gorilla, right? Right? *looks at Baileys, throws away Baileys * pic.twitter.com/eejZ2SOtRO

It really says something about Eurovision when you can think "oh yeh, I forgot there was a dancing gorilla on stage earlier" #eurovision
