This song is in my top 5 but no live performances are as good as studio version. It's a big problem.

Uh Oh. More reports of a bad vocal at the rehearsals today. They are starting to make me a little nervous now, I hope we don't completely blow it on Saturday! I can't stand another disappointment in eurovision this year!

TBH building up to a confident and well-thought out entry takes time. UK viewers should be satisfied with a top-ten and pleased with a top-five. However, this entry is not a winner.

For the reputation of the Eurovision Song Contest in the UK, we really need a win, or at least a top 3 placing. If Blue does poorly, it's only going to make things worse. I'm worried about them, because apparently there are still problems with the mixing. People in the UK will (naively and wrongly) blame it on geopolitics >.<

Yeah completely. If Blue don't get a decent placing it's gonna be alllllll about how europe hates us and will never vote for the UK which is gonna annoy me beyond belief! Casual viewers have already made a big song and dance about how they don't know why Blue are doing it cos 'the UK can never win'. People should really stick to talking about stuff they know about.

I know, totally annoys me when people blame it on 'politics'. I used to think this was the case a few years ago but its obvious when you put a good entry through, we do well (look at Jade!) I really hope Blue dont blow it because this is our biggest chance since 'Love shine a light!'

...It was awful. I'm so annoyed. The UK is officially out of the running. Lee went for the big notes though, and actually hit some of them.

According to escnation it was pretty bad. Looks like juries won't be voting then...!
When can we watch?

I'm listening live on escdaily.com

Urgh, this is so frustrating. A real chance to change the perception of Eurovision in this country by doing well, and they completely mess it up! France has this in the bag now.
