United Kingdom UNITED KINGDOM 2025 - Remember Monday - What The Hell Just Happened?

[ESC United Mod Team]

Tbh I think Mae Mullers initial chart success etc was mostly down to the fact we were hosting and everything Eurovision was rammed down our throats for a solid month or 2 straight. It was great to see.

It was also a bloody good song even though it was just mainstream.

This century the UK have sent 4 songs that would win Eurovision. 2009, 2014, 2017, 2022…. And now 2025. I actually think if the televoters don’t murder it this could win. Perfect vocals, country / queen styling… with good staging we could be back in Liverpool next May.

I don’t see any other country winning other than Israel or Cyprus this year. It’s a very VERY weak year

The UK will be lucky to get 50 televote points, and that’s being generous.

Does this song get any airplay??

I heard it on Pride Radio the other day on my commute to work

One thing that happened with Sam, which I believe really helped, was that he performed the song straight away. He then continued to do so on his socials.

Not having a live performance doesn’t help the UK. They need to show the girls can sing. They need people to hear the song so it becomes familiar (as it’s not really an instant catch due to its blend of styles) They need to show their personalities, being fun, caring about the contest etc

Little to no social/promo etc is a bad move. Surely Sam taught them how important it is to be part of the conversation.

Yeah, when Spaceman was revealed there was the studio version released in the morning and he did an "as live" version on The One Show a few hours later. I don't know if he did any other live/as life singing that day, but over the course of a few hours we heard the song and what he is capable of.

As far as I'm aware the trio hasn't done any live performances of their song as yet. Which feels kind of screwy as you'd have at least expected them to do something on the BBC by now given they are the UK's broadcaster for this contest.

2022 was the only one that was even close to be a potential winner. If it wasn't for Andrew Lloyd webber there's no way 2009 would have done so well. I do think 2014 and 2017 should have done better but they weren't winning material and nor is this hot mess.

I remember being surprised that the result was low in 2014. I thought it was a strong entry. 2017 I could take or leave.

I was genuinely about to say here that this is gonna win ...

I was not a big fan of British entry last year but for me indeed it was a good pop song. This one OTOH ...

 

[Yoozek]

Any song which will be before this... Will benefit in recap, when this one is right after them.

The mind or minds who wrote this song must be quite chaotic. Perhaps the show is to overly teenage girl femaleistic. But it is quite charming to. The different parts of the song maybe doesnt hold together but it is a bit of a novelty. But I dont like the swearing in the title that is unnecessary-. But the UK with the second biggest music industry in the world can do better. Just the BBC chosing the winner song every year will not make the contest as popular as if it had a national final of different songs. Which people can vote on.
