February 25, 20205 yr Author This is from a month ago...can someone get analysing the trees to see if they're the same but with some snow added in post-production :P View this post on Instagram
February 25, 20205 yr my first thoughts when I saw the promo was ohhh Adele Is finally back then realised it was our Eurovision promo
February 25, 20205 yr I wouldn’t mind John Newman with a good song. Seems mad that he went from big news to nothing very quickly
February 25, 20205 yr View this post on Instagram I mean, whatever it is, dare I say it looks like there's a BUDGET behind this? Not just some video shot in front of a green screen? circa $200 for a good quality cam drone from Amazon + a car trip to the forest? come on BUDGET Edited February 25, 20205 yr by *CENSORED*
February 25, 20205 yr Rumour mill is now pointing at John's brother James Newman to be doing it himself Sounds more like what the BBC would do + deal with BMG to launch his career (radio 1 support etc) I'm still hoping it's Mabel. Or Adele (lol sure Jan).
February 25, 20205 yr Well being brutally honest, I don't envisage James Newman having that different a musical style to his brother?
February 25, 20205 yr Author ^ Well, same, because whilst I haven’t checked out any of James’ music, they’ve done songwriting together before and James has done backing vocals on one or two of John’s tracks from what I’ve read Rumour mill is now pointing at John's brother James Newman to be doing it himself Sounds more like what the BBC would do + deal with BMG to launch his career (radio 1 support etc) This is what my tweets were pointing towards in the first place and I got so confused when people started to take them the wrong way! :lol:
February 25, 20205 yr i think bbc would be shooting themselves in the foot if they announce that it’s james newman after graham’s hype video, the promos, the radio 1 + 2 slot, the suggestion we could get 12 points.. it all nods towards someone with a little more clout than the relative of a well known singer. if it turns out to be james and not john, they’re just going to be inundated with ‘who?!’ comments + they’ve lost any kind of hype they’d hope to build. the sources i’ve seen are still insistent it’s john so who the hell knows! :lol:
February 25, 20205 yr Author I mean, they both have names beginning with J and if they’re both involved in some way (one as a writer, one as a singer), it wouldn’t surprise me if the people at the root of these clues & sources got their wires crossed in some way :lol:
February 26, 20205 yr Does the UK have any chance of finishing above the bottom three? Don’t you guys pay extra to be on the bottom each year?? :o
February 26, 20205 yr Author Does the UK have any chance of finishing above the bottom three? Well we managed it as little as three years ago.....
February 26, 20205 yr I wouldn’t complain if it’s something in same vein as this tune PBLjjBz0Nuo Edited February 26, 20205 yr by darrens94
February 26, 20205 yr There’s a leaked version (clocks in at 2:30 so maybe not the full thing) around on twitter of James Newman’s My Last Breath - I think that’s the song.
February 26, 20205 yr I don't hate it if it is our entry! Nothing insanely amazing but it actually sounds like a song that could be a hit rn rather than something out of 2005 like usual. It really doesn't go anywhere though so I can't see it doing a huge amount better than we normally do :lol:
February 26, 20205 yr yeah, that’s it - my last breath. it’s a pretty good song which shows we’re taking it a little more seriously though a bigger name would have helped. i hope he can deliver some good performances.
