Bingo! It does have that feel to it. I could imagine this being on Madonna's Dick Tracy soundtrack.

The only thing its got going for it is that is does get stuck in ypur head, and amid all the ballads it might raise it from the last few places..... but your right it s reams opener and then with nothing to compare and at first position it willl be forgotten. I'm really disappointed.

Can we just blame the acoustics and be done with it all.

You must be kidding. By 23rd May I'll be convinced that we have a chance as always. *rolleyes*

It'd be too modern.

I'll be optimistic and say it'll just about break into the Top 100

Sweden's such a fix, gonna be an inevitable last place twice in a row for me

Can we steal Leonor for our entry? I can see top 10 written all over it

Oh no, I wanted this if only for to see him to fail against Mans.....or anyone else. Stink is a hateful song to my ears. I just want to see his expression when it hopefully happens.

Hmm,I really can't see the juries going for this.

Unless they are given several brown envelopes.

Mans singing 6th? Not a good sign?

Guy should have got Jack Hulbert to sing the song, if only he wasn't......dead.

Maybe the BBC want to withdrew next year. Promote an entry well so it makes it look like It can do well but then when it flops bow to the press fury which follows and then withdraw.

6th listen and it's catchy. I just worry about what the vocals and stage show will be! I imagine it'll come across as a joke act

When do we actually find out where we are going to be placed in the running order

Not a big fan of starting first, but would it be so bad that we inflict our tosh on Europe first and then let the rest of them get on with it?

He lied. Seen esckaz mention on esc nation 30 mins before the reveal that the 300 entries were awful and unusable, this was rushed together in the last two weeks.

Have they improved the singing or the songs in Portugal? Or am I just liking it more after...
