February 8, 20196 yr I expect a memorable, original, high quality ballad to win this year. So Wiktoria then? :D
February 8, 20196 yr I think we picked the right choice, it wasn't my favourite song but much like Lucie, there's a really good song there delivered by a superb vocal which will at least pick up jury votes. I feel like this site are always really tough on complimenting a male vocal compared to a female, but he was EASILY the best singer tonight.
February 8, 20196 yr Just caught the end of this. Expected result but the song is only ‘quite nice’, not that this was the most inspiring selection overall. The juries may help it into the lower top 20 I guess...

February 8, 20196 yr I expect a memorable, original, high quality ballad to win this year. So Wiktoria then? :D Is Not With Me any more original? I prefer it and I love it, more so than Michael for sure, but you know, it's not exactly ORIGINAL.
February 8, 20196 yr Is Not With Me any more original? I prefer it and I love it, more so than Michael for sure, but you know, it's not exactly ORIGINAL. Maybe it's because I've been saturated with reality TV winners from Cowell in this country, but 'Bigger Than Us' is the most by-the-numbers cookie cutter song of the 5 selected so far.
February 8, 20196 yr I feared this would happen. We've gone full 21st century Ireland. I feel absolutely nothing from this song nor do I have any interest in supporting it. May it languish in mid-table anonymity and give UK Eurovision watchers a few more moments of excitement in the results than normal.
February 8, 20196 yr Correct choice so good work there although Holly was my favourite of the night. Credit to the BBC for a fantastically produced show, an extremely enjoyable 90 minutes! All that was missing was the songs but credit given where its due there - best UK final overall that I've witnessed. Of course Australia will blow it out the water on their first ever go tomorrow...
February 9, 20196 yr Yessss! Liking 'Bigger Than Us' a lot atm and Michael gave a solid vocal! SO much stronger and better than last years song.
February 9, 20196 yr As a lot have said, it will go down well with the juries. But it's a no from me. Edited February 9, 20196 yr by Alex!
February 9, 20196 yr Juries will respond to his strong vocals on the night but the song is ultimately useless. I was there at Media City last night and it was a done deal but even I was surprised how boring it was on TV. And boring is a sure fire way to get 26th in the televote.
February 9, 20196 yr With all of our musical heritage this is the best we can come up with. It’s beyond embarrassing these days. ITV should take over.
February 9, 20196 yr Finally the right choice made in the national finals! Best song by a mile imo as others are either repetitive (Kerrie-Anne) or musically weak. The staging is appropriate but might want to tone down the movement. I think it is best to keep it this way as a revamp from my instinct might destroy the song, so no Albania 2016 please.
February 9, 20196 yr So BBC replied to me with pretty much can’t afford to do what done In previous years so let’s save on that and get : Bucks Fizz, Katrina and the waves , Netta , SuRie , on the show. So probably spent more money than before. Judges vote in round 1 thought was wrong thing should of let audience vote / tv audience and I felt no reason why the singers had to sing again. Michael Rice / Holly Tandy was the only real good ones there. Crap tv glad didn’t sit through at media city now hours of waiting for it to come on then no phone to use and more importantly to vote. bbc should be ashamed of themselves Anyone have problems last night queuing up and not getting in due to oversubscribed tickets ?

Are you still banging on about this?
February 9, 20196 yr Are you still banging on about this? Oh so this isn’t a forum then? Definition of forum = opinions
February 9, 20196 yr Every single TV show overbooks like that. It's so they don't have empty seats. This is nothing new...
