@rrhev Hmm I'm not so sure if they have been treated unfairly in the competition , at least looking back the last 10 years. since 2001 we have China and Canada winning 3 times - most of everybody else competing; we got Spain and Sweden twice, and once Mexico. I agree I shouldn't have said China's challenged at art performances; what I really meant is compared to Canada and Spain's shows I don't see how they won without political interference...I'm not the only one if you look at fcbk page...
so unfair that they won, to me it was the worst performance, music is off sync, and didn't have any unique input.... when comes to art China has never had advantage over anyone and the case isn't any different this time...:( I wish politics wouldn't mess with art...
@kamilhand You're totally entitled to your own opinion, but I have to disagree. I think China deserved to win. Their fireworks were nothing short of breathtakingly beautiful. Truly dazzling and mesmerizing. China has been competing for many years and they rarely win. This has nothing to do with politics.
@wikct2 I try not to have too much music as YouTube claims copyright violation... in fact they DID declare copyright violation on this video but I protested it and they allowed the limited music under "fair comment".
Thank you so much for posting this butch! I couldnt make it downtown last night so for me to see this is absolutely amazing! Looking forward to your vids for Spain and Canada! Cheers!
I was there
