18th jury declares

OGAE Luxembourg: 12 points to Sweden

OGAE Luxembourg have voted on the 2008 songs and they gave Sweden and Charlotte Perrelli the ninth set of 12 points keeping them way in the lead. Ukraine's 10 points keep the country in fifth place while Switzerland got eight points and moves back in third place ahead of Armenia.

The Luxembourgeois OGAE votes:

  • 12 points Sweden
  • 10 points Ukraine
  • 8 points Switzerland
  • 7 points Malta
  • 6 points Denmark
  • 5 points Iceland
  • 4 points Greece
  • 3 points Turkey
  • 2 points Armenia
  • 1 point Portugal

Just missing out:

  • Belgium
  • Serbia
  • Romania
  • Bulgaria
  • Germany

Sweden is now 65 points ahead of Serbia who remain in second place despite getting not a single point. Switzerland has moved in third place and is only nine points behind them closely followed by Armenia. The biggest surprises came for Malta and Denmark who got seven and six points respectively, which mean they both more than doubled their votes and are now in 20th and 21st place.

@Mongo Boy

I'm not talking about Macedonia, but ALL former Yugoslav republics (hence the term FYRs). How cute that you didn't understand that.

Luxembourg, you have good taste, but your taste would be even better if you dropped a few points to the UK!! ;)

Keith shut up.

FYR Macedonia is a stupid invention by the Greeks.

It's MACEDONIA!

Maybe the reason is their neighbors have crappy songs...

Luxembourg is the most important Eurovision country, even after a 15 year absence. They always had a great ear for quality. I'm glad they have a OGAE fan club and I'm glad they still cast votes here. And what a proud example of good voting: None of their neighbours got a single point. Watch and learn, FYRs!

:) Luxembourg knows something about quality! Thanks for our 6 points - and pls come back to ESC, you are one of the countries that are missed!

How pointless. Luxembourg does not take part in the contest anymore, so Sweden should not count with these 12 points at all. Anyway, it's the votes of a bunch of 50-100 fans, it has nothing to do with reality.
