April 1, 201411 yr Looks like no MP3's until April 14th then :( I literally wouldn't care if Molly just put her single on iTunes. How is it not out in HQ yet, no HQ studio, no Vevo, no lyric video or anything? Even with all the right intentions this year, the BBC still very much behind the times with how to promote an entry. Social media is free promotion and yet only the live performance and a radio rip are on Youtube!
April 1, 201411 yr I'm sure they will put them up somewhere until that point. I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT WAIT ANY LONGER NOW. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING. WHY ARE THEY TORTURING US
April 1, 201411 yr I need those mp3's! I need to properly listen to the songs and get into the Eurovision Mood.
April 1, 201411 yr They're really pushing the iTunes pre-order this year, I don't think they'll appear on Eurovision.tv first or anything...
