The presentation was chaotic, the stage strange and the organisation lacking to say the least but the songs were first rate this year and were not poor.
Toto set new lows in presentation though!
The real winner for me was the French entry by Amina, it was such a great song and deserved to win. The RAI orchestra ruined the Greek entry which was outstanding - how on earth could that have happened in a professional orchestra? The EBU scrutineers Frank Naef was getting visibly annoyed throughout the voting which was chaos itself. Terry Wogan was at the height of his powers and was excellent.
