I cant confirm that from the video I saw unfortunately.

Can you link the vid you watched because the stuff I’ve seen comes across as shaky and a bit cringe as usual

Sure! Here:
Mae Muller - I wrote a song - Amsterdam EiC

For me, yes, improved but something needs to be done about the note at the end mainly-apart from that I'm confident she will be ok in Liverpool

I fully agree with you - personally, I think it screams like a Bottom 5 in televoting (even though it doesn´t deserve to finish that low) BUT... who knows... is about to perform last and thus, it may generate a few more votes.. and I really believe that juries will place it mid-table (since it´s a bop and very contemporary).

Yes I can see this happening, a televote result below 18th and a mid-table jury result.

 

[Ianp16]

Watched some live performances of this and have a gut-wrenching feeling it will bomb and be bottom 5. The song has been on repeat on my spotify account but feel live it's really flat. Ugh.

 

[Chrisiam]

Honestly, I'm going to wait till we get some better live audio before I start to panic. Ideally something closer to the final performance style. The unplugged acoustic-style stuff is neat and all but I want to get a hit of what it is going to really be like. And all I have seen and heard is recorded on a phone waaay in the back of a large crowd with most of the footage being from around the time she was ill.

I can see a world where it does come bottom five if the issues she's been having are more indicative of wider issues and issues fans are having with the setup for it aren't addressed.

 

[ESCConor]

Its the sort of song that will come down to staging on the night imo.

If the staging is great then I could see a left hand side, I think what does help is the fact its last in the running order, that might help with televotes.

Im not sure how the juries will like it.

Its very difficult to judge the song on a pre-party stage when its a very basic version of it.

I just hope she can nail it on the night.

 

[Juliette]

The beat bothers me to no end, but the lyrics are even worse, sorry

 

[MopManMoss]

The da duh da da da dai bit is like nails on a chalkboard for me I’m not sure how I tolerated this as long as I did but it’s been in my bottom five for a few weeks now

 

[Bobjan FR]

I would have love if this song by Ellie goulding released two weeks ago was the UK's song... But we'll probably never see her there.

That part is so repetitive and they sing it way too much.

 

[midnightsun]

That doesn’t bother me the most, but what really bothers me is that duh duh duh duh duh autotune voice that sounds like a bored housewife, former model now chewing gum blond Karen with dark hairline, pink nails, oversized shirt watching her children‘s toys all over the floor and hating her life.

 

[njdevils94]

They gave her Wolverine nails.

 

[Chrisiam]

Well, now we know what she'll use on her creative team if she ends up in the bottom 5.

Nail off with Loreen

Initially I didn't like this song but soon later it turned into my guilty pleasure of the year. Some parts are cheesy but also very catchy. I will be vibing with this song a lot as the closing performance of the night whether the live vocals will be good or bad!
