And here you go, another piano acoustic version. I am very happy that he is in full force promoting this song.

Duncan and his team is on a roll. Another performance of the song. Seems like he is doing every possible promotion for the song in his home country.

For a few ESC artists, domestic promotion is a great place to start - it's a great way to stir up enthusiasm in their home country. I also can't wait to see videos of his pre-party performances

PS: Just found out that Arcade has reached the Spotify global viral 50 chart!

About damn time. The song deserves the recognition. It may not be my no. 1 for this year's competition, but I cannot deny that it is still an amazing track. If the staging is done right, I wouldn't mind if he wins the competition.

It's not my favorite but the performance is absolutely magical and very emotional. IMO this is gonna win by a large margin!

This was already one of my favourites, but this song is the only ESC 2019 entry that I've been listening to regularly since it was selected. It's brilliant. It's got to be a Swiss or Dutch victory!

Arcade is one of my favourites this year. But these stripped down versions where he is singing live are not my favourites. I think this song needs some more orchestrations. The studio version is good - but I keep playing with the though of hearing this with live instruments... cello...violins.... hmmm

Did you know Duncan helped write the music for a 2018 song by Korean group TVXQ last year?

I´m not a great fan of this one but it will get a good result for sure.

See, that wasn´t too hard to write and I didn´t pure shit on anyone either like some others do, if fans could treat us the same way, it would be more nice for us all. But it´s hard to learn old dogs to sit properly I guess

Watching that interview earlier today, Duncan seems like a really humble, down-to-earth guy
