April 2, 20232 yr Seems publications like the Torygraph and the Daily Mail have jumped on her for comments she's made about the Tories and Boris Johnson - even though everything she has said is actually correct and she made some good valid points, but nevermind!
April 2, 20232 yr I’ve been chuckling whilst rolling my eyes all day at British right wing Twitter saying things like “well, she’s lost my vote”. WELL, Derek, if you had even the slightest bit of interest in Eurovision in the first place, then you’d know we can’t vote for one another ANYWAY.
April 2, 20232 yr Rooting for her more now tbh She has been fun on social media as well. Just a shame about the song. x
April 3, 20232 yr Author she's literally me loling at the Telegraph acting as if they've got an exclusive when they've just dug up some old tweets and instigated harassment, losers
April 9, 20232 yr :lol: That’s the second best Loreen related video of the day for me, after this one of autotune being left on on her mic while speaking to the crowd: @1644855478025875458
April 9, 20232 yr https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYsdSUyU/ Actually I’m, she’s literally ME!! Coz… SAME!!!! I'd vote for her based on her personality alone.
April 11, 20232 yr What on earth was that attempted high note?! It’s not the worst live vocal but the studio is quite evidently Autotuned to death
April 11, 20232 yr This just goes to show you how an otherwise decent pop star might not hack it in Eurovision due to their demand of a live vocal. Hopefully it can only get better from here, but I'd recommend them to get backing singers to stabilise her live vocal.
April 11, 20232 yr I think it will sound fuller at Eurovision, with backing vocals and maybe even the 'da da da da da da' bit still on the backing track? She sounded great when I saw her live a few years back, so she definitely can sing well on a good day. I think I'd definitely leave out that high note though, it's not massively necessary on the song and she's struggling with it.
April 11, 20232 yr Hmm... It started badly, got better and then she got to the high note and realised how bad it was going and told everyone to "jump, jump, jump" instead. The bad bits were when she was trying to dance at the same time, which I think it probably difficult for even a seasoned pop star without some good backing vocals to help them along.
April 11, 20232 yr Oh dear god.. these vocals are truly shocking. No way are we getting anywhere near left side. I think it could be between us and Poland for last place at this rate, unless something drastic happens vocally between now and May.
April 11, 20232 yr It'd be a shame if they can't pull it together for Eurovision really - I've heard it a few times on the radio, which I didn't for Space Man at this point, so it does feel like there's a momentum of good-will going. But yeah, they have to figure something out if she can't keep up with dancing and singing at the same time.

There is but in the UK it's because of Sam and more importantly he gained substantial goodwill outside the UK while the UK press were telling people the odds were biased and overhyped. His momentum increased every time he performed Space Man because he could actually sing the song and foreigners adored him. I hope they have a backup plan as I genuinely don't see the UK supporting Mae if she does badly. Edited April 12, 20232 yr by xMx
April 12, 20232 yr It's hard because Eurovision is about staging and performance as much as the song. I would say if she had twice as many dancers, with some kind of inventive staging, she could get away with just strutting around the stage a bit and being able to concentrate on the vocals. As I said before, some decent backing vocals will help.
April 12, 20232 yr I've seen her do much better on other performances (of different songs), so I want to believe she can boss it on the night itself.
