Sweden wins Eurovision, but UK is second from last
By Mark SavageBBC Music Correspondent
Sweden's Loreen has won the Eurovision Song Contest for The Second time, with her soaring pop anthem Tattoo.
The Star , who last won The Competition in 2012, saw off Competition from Italy and Israel in a nail-biting vote.
The UK's Mae Muller failed to replicate Sam Ryder 's success Last Year , Coming In 25th place - One above bottom.
And The Princess of Wales made a surprise cameo, playing The Piano with Last Year 's winners Kalush Orchestra.
Loreen is the only The Second person - and The First woman - to win Eurovision twice, after Ireland's Johnny Logan .
" This is so overwhelming, " She Said as she collected The Trophy . " I'm so grateful. I'm so thankful. "
Sweden's victory means it will host next year's Competition - on what will be the 50th anniversary of Abba's historic victory with Waterloo in 1974.
It now ties with Ireland as the country with The Most Eurovision wins of all time: They have seven each.
But Ireland crashed out of this year's contest at the semi-final stage for the fifth year in a row.
" It feels like an annual Groundhog Day" The Head of Ireland's delegation, Michael Kealy told RTÉ News after the result.
" It's a lot of emotional capital on our Eurovision effort each year. It's devastating we don't get through to The Final . "
Liverpool hosted this year's contest on behalf of war-torn Ukraine, which won in 2022.
Appropriately, The Show began with Last Year 's winners, Kalush Orchestra, playing an extended version of their Song Stefania in a pre-taped segment from war-torn Kyiv.
Stars including Joss Stone , Sam Ryder and Andrew Lloyd Webber added a British flavour to The Song , as The Band boarded a train from The Iconic Maidan Nezalezhnosti Metro Station and arrived on The Stage of the Liverpool Arena.
Princess Kate accompanied on piano, in a brief segment recorded in the crimson drawing room of Windsor Castle earlier this month.
Back in The Arena , Kalush performed their new single Changes, delivering a message of defiance to Russia: " Give My All down to The Wire / Set me free. "
It was The First of many references to The War , in a show that took a more political tone than most editions of Eurovision.
Croatia's Let 3 ! performed a Song that referred to Russia's Vladimir Putin as a " crocodile psychopath" while the Czech band Vesna sang in Ukrainian, " We're With You in our hearts".
Ukraine's own entry, Tvorchi, whose rehearsals At Home were interrupted by Air Raid sirens, played a powerful Song inspired by The Siege of Mariupol.
Russia has been suspended from The Contest due to The Invasion , but organisers refused to allow a speech from Ukraine's President Volodomyr Zelensky during The Show .
Elsewhere, Eurovision was Eurovision. There were 80s-inspired tributes to Miami Vice , a Ghost Story about Edgar Allen Poe and, naturally, a tear-away dress.
But The Musical component of The Contest continues to improve.
Spain's Blanca Paloma combined traditional flamenco rhythms with a throbbing electro pulse on the vibrant, urgent EAEA; and France's La Zarra tied together decades of Gallic Music History in the Piaf-meets-Daft-Punk Évidemment.
Acts from Armenia, Poland and Israel - especially Israel - threw slick dance breaks into their performances; while Italy's Marco Mengoni was accompanied by two gymnasts on trampolines.
There was also the usual surfeit of tortured ballads, both good (Lithuania) and drab (Albania); and a never-ending parade of lyrics about coming together and being nice to your neighbours (Belgium, Switzerland, Australia).
In a post-modern twist, The Competition was bookended by two songs about The Process of songwriting.
Austrian duo Teya & Salena kicked off The Show with the quirky pop anthem Who The Hell Is Edgar, in which they are possessed by The Spirit of US poet Edgar Allen Poe, who compels them to write a Song .
An hour-and-a-half later, Mae Muller closed The Competition with I Wrote A Song - in which she gets revenge on her ex-boyfriend by writing a Song that catalogues his misdemeanours.
It meant The Contest opened with the lyric, " Oh My God , you're such a good writer" and ended with Muller singing, " Instead, I wrote a Song ".
And if that's not synchronicity, I don't know what is.
The Contest was presented by Alesha Dixon , Hannah Waddingham and Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina , with Graham Norton joining them during the voting stage.
The Interval showcased the " Liverpool songbook" with tracks by John Lennon , Melanie C and Gerry and the Pacemakers performed by former Eurovision contestants.
And Sam Ryder , who came second for the UK Last Year , performed an emotional version of his new single, Mountains, with Queen's Roger Taylor on drums.
Ryder, whose Song is about Overcoming Adversity , was accompanied On Stage by dancers who had lost limbs.
How the votes came inLoreen easily won The Jury vote, picking up the maximum 12 points from Ireland, Estonia, Spain, Albania, Cyprus and Ukraine, amongst others.
She ended The Jury sequence with a score of 340, giving her a comfortable 163-point lead over Italy's Marco Mengoni .
But The Public preferred Finnish rapper Käärijä, giving him 526 points, temporarily putting him in The Lead .
Loreen reclaimed The Crown at The Last minute, with The Public score of 243 putting her back on top.
The UK languished at the bottom of The Table , picking up just 9 points from The Public and 15 from the juries.
Only Germany fared worse. Their glam-rock Song Blood And Glitter gained a mere 18 points.
