Our “Expert” Panel continues for another year, with 15 members of the ESC United team having sat down to review the hopefuls that were set to represent their nations at Eurovision 2020 in Rotterdam!
As a quick reminder, the rules of our “Expert” Panel are simple; our team provide a score for each entry between 1 and 10, with .5 scores also possible – 1 being terrible and 10 being a perfect score and an amazing entry. Each entry will also have a video, where Matt will discuss the entry with three members of the panel and provide their rationales for their points for the song.
Time to see which song is next up…
We move from Portugal to their nearest and dearest neighbours Spain, who were hoping to turn around Eurovision fortunes with Blas Cantó’s “Universo” – but were our panel compelled to offer support for the latest Spanish offering in the contest?
#YOU can see below how Matt, Gabe, Sean and Roy reacted to the Spanish entry below;
