Also can I just say - thank you BBC for letting us get some hype builds with previews and snippets and little social teases - this is what we need instead of months of nothing and then suddenly "song tomorrow".
It makes me hopeful that Olly is fully invested in a big PR tour to promote him and his song in the months to come![]()
I agree, anything top 10 is good when you consider that the no. of entrants is not the 26 in the final but 35-40 when you take the semis into account — unless you are aiming for last place (which Germany seem to believe they own) in which case coming 6th is a disaster. That was probably our main failing last year, coming second to last is a failure not only to win but to lose too.However, as the Brits say, "It's early days." You call finishing sixth in ESC 2002 a flop? I think that it is a respectable finish. Also, I think that "Dizzy" and "Gimme" are not that similar.
Thank god for pre recorded backing vocals and Olly having major experience in staging songs similar to this on arena and festival stages!The instrumental is soooo good, but the song sounds extremely difficult to sing and stage.

The issue with Mae was they didn’t use them to anywhere near the same extent as similar entries did who scored higher! I’m hoping the BBC have learnt their lesson there.Pre recorded backing vocals did not save Mae Muller thooo but you might be right that Olly is a more experienced performer
Key changes (at least of the gear shift variety) have become an endangered species at Eurovision in recent years. We need a revival of the key change at Eurovision before it goes completely extinct.Key changes are an act of terror

I'm waiting for Lee to take it quite literally and call our selection show Nottingham or Blackpool and host it thereOur HoD seems to be doing a little NF tour. First he's in the Benidormfest jury, and now hes apparently at Sanremo. Then Olly ofc is our jury spokesperson in UMK. Not to dig too deep, but...![]()
