      The song was just not good. It deserves the 15th place. Which is really sad, because he has some amazing songs. For him as a person I feel really sad because he loves Eurovision and he is the most amazing human being. I still can not understand why his Team chose this song. Maybe in a few years he'll have a second comeback with a better song. That would be amazing.

    What an amazing performance ❤️ I hope people can stop being so mean to Alexander. He doesn't deserve it. Period! He is so HUMBLE and down to earth and always talks positively about all other participants. And he is talented. This song was made purely as a stage show. He wanted to make people happy and smile this time. Not every song needs to be deep. He has been nothing but loveable. Alexander has never expected to win or said so, like his haters claims. He (of course), like everyone else participating, would've liked to win, to make his country proud. This is a competition.....but he has always said he is in it cause he loves Eurovision and music. So stop this unfair hating and bashing of Rybak, just stop it. He has never down-talked anyone ever, so why people are so mean in return, is so pathetic.

      it's the mix of countries/entries.
      each semi has weak and stronger entries. the weak ones are rooted out, the stronger ones are put in the grand final, thus, each entry in the final. probably didn't know who to vote for in the semis. and in the grand finals, the votes are divided into 26, unlike in the semi, its divided into 19
