I like pop music and the chorus isn't very strong. I would put many other songs at this eurovision above Jedward. They performed it ok and it was well presented on TV (camerawork, background) but the chorus was flat and relatively monotonous.

There seemed to be sound problems, the voices just didn't seem to really come out well on TV and the camerawork seemed a mess as well.

I think he was quite a bit better. Good catchy song and decent dancing. His performance in the semi may have been better though.

And someone mentioned Serbia, yeh not a bad song. Actually it was quite a good year for songs overall. Don't judge it on Jedward or the gimmicky Ukraine entry.
