Not a complete disaster at all, I can see where it's going! The only bit I really don't like is the silly choreography in the chorus, I hope they scrap that but I doubt they will cos they've done it on all the TV shows too :(

I'm still hopeful for a decent result!

yeah, from what I've read they got better and better with each rehearsal so my fingers are crossed for the boys!!! I'm thinking there will be some pyro's as well as the boys were shown in the documentary testing out some of them!

Hi all, been watching this page for a while now, but never wrote on here. Always preferred seeing what others had to say, but have now decided to be a bit more active. :)

Just wondering which day is it when the Juries vote on the Big 5 performances?

Also, just to say that UK's first rehearsal wasn't great, but it wasn't THAT bad! Things to work on such as the LED screens (getting clips working in the correct order etc), and some tuning work, but I personally think the act is almost there. We'll be fine! :)

What was that?! Awful singing, neon green, screens with their photos on? Like a bad science-fiction movie...

Disappointment :(

This was just first rehersal. I think that only Blue on stage would have been enough (I am not very fond of those screens), but the sound was just being adjusted to their voices, that's why its called soundcheck and thats why its not perfect the first time.

this documentary the secret history of eurovision is really interesting so far, I've found out alot about eastern europe I didn't know, no wonder they are so happy to be part of eurovision these days, westerners take so much for granted!

I agree. I'm sure that tomorrow they'll be much better.

The rehearsal of today was really not good. And I don´t like showing their photos on the screen - what´s that?
I´m disappointed at the moment and hope, that their singing will be better, but for me this song isn´t a favorite of mine anymore, because of the whole perfomance. What a pitty.

It wasn't as bad as people think. There was something wrong with the sound of the background music, though their vocals can use a bit of polishing.

Is "I Can" this year's "Disappear"? Famous band singing a mid-tempo ballad, being completely out of tune and ending up in the bottom half?

After seeing that choreography now I really dont want UK to win. Screens with photos of singers is very childish and silly. Do they want to say "Look how handsome we are "? This is not beauty contest but song contest. If they feel that they are handsome enough than they can try to take part at Mister World. Is it possibly somehow those screens to be remowed?
