Peking Duk's new song is three minutes exactly and an absolute banger... how I wish this could be the Australian entry instead :(

Plot twist: Australia chose something just because they thought they were participating... but they cannot find a song for Jessica so they will withdraw her AND the application...

I think we (finally) have some info! Or a hint, at least. Which is to say, Jessica Mauboy has changed all of her social media profile pictures to the following image (spoilered due to size):



So I'm assuming the song title is We Got Love? It has to be Eurovision-related, surely - apart from the timing, it's also worth noting that the picture on Twitter already been retweeted by Dami Im and Isaiah.

If that’s true, why do we have a second grammatically-incorrect title in a row? English is our first language goddammit. :confused:

It should be “We’ve got love” or “We have love” unless the title is in the past tense. (e.g. we got love yesterday)

Correct grammar is too overrated. Channel your inner eastern European/Swedish songwriter and send a hit that makes no sense.

That doesn’t sound as fierce though. It’s like saying ”we have game” isn’t as striking as ”we got game”

Re: AUSTRALIA 2018 - Jessica Mauboy

Some people are thinking that Jessica might release the song during Sydney's annual Mardi Gras LGBT parade, which will be held tomorrow evening. There's no concrete evidence for this, but she lives in Sydney, she enjoys Mardi Gras (and has performed there previously), the "We Got Love" promotional material (and possible song title) would fit thematically, and there are rumours that the song release is coming sooner rather than later.

No idea how credible these guesses are, but I thought I'd mention them!

Re: AUSTRALIA 2018 - Jessica Mauboy

People saying the song is apparently composed by DNA, who also did our last two Eurovision entries. This concerns me. :?
