aram mp3 not alone
Completely agree with @peter and @Woz, sometimes people didn’t vote for us because we’re Spain, I hope and know that this year, along with 2012, we will show that we take ESC seriously, actually we’re doing hard to win.
I hope Europe will acknowledge how hard Ruth is working to bring the contest to Spain in 2015!
Greetings to all Europe from Spain
Everybody knows that Sanna ( Sweden ) will win 😀
Azerbaijan is absolutely amazing
ARMENIA AAAA 🙂 ? PUSS O

Oh wow, I was wrong….but for how long?
i haven’t voted yet…but i know when i do Armenia will be way out ahead
@peter “I think sometimes we dont vote to Spain just because we dont want them ever win”
And why is that? As a spaniard I’d like to know.
Btw, I can’t remeber any other year besides 2012 when we deserved any votes. But I can’t see why people just don’t want us to win. Is it because of soccer?
@William Lee Adams please block “Armenian King”/”Armenian Diaspora”. It’s obviously the same guy and he’s obviously not Armenian. It’s insulting.
Voted Austria, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Montenegro, Norway, San Marino, and Sweden.
i think this year spain deserves to win , they work hard to be the winner, like in 2012 with pastora soler https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8J1b62wOao all the people after the show said, Spain must have been the winner , this year will do again? i will vote for spain this year, i think this year spanish entry is so much better than armenians song a lot .please they deserves win, I think sometimes we dont vote to Spain just because we dont want them ever win, I thought that, but this year I think he deserves it ,and I’ve changed my perspective… Read more »
