Who won the Eurovision 2021 competition? Summary and list of winners

Entered the 65th Eurovision Final in history. Year after year, the competition raises standards and stops being a totally embarrassing festival—at least when we talk about TV shows and pop music.

Eurovision 2021 – Who won?

This year, the diversity of species was definitely in the ears. Ukraine performed folklore techno, Russian hip-hop, Lithuania electro, Finland of course No Metal, Cyprus a Lady Gaga-style song, and Serbia a Buskat Dolls style. There were also stories of wonderful composition from Bulgaria.

The list of winners largely coincided with the bookmakers’ ratings, and juries from individual countries have traditionally voted mainly for their neighbors. The biggest loser turned out to be Great Britain, which did not score any points – from jurors and TV viewers.

Who reached the top of the table? Singer Jeon Tears from Switzerland came third, followed by Barbara Bravi from France. Måneskin rock group from Italy turned out to be the best, having previously topped the bookmakers. Hence the lack of surprises, despite the fact that the music they play is not at European level. However, rock and roll will not go to the other world yet.
