Posted February 17Feb 17 A nice out of the blue announcement and perhaps a bit more risky than the last few years… hopefully… maybe 👀
February 17Feb 17 Feeling very disconnected from the contest this year but must say I really like what I know from LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER, especially 'Desperado Vespa' and 'Time is Not a Healer it's a Fuel for Resentment', an interesting pick.
February 17Feb 17 Another success for one of my early contest minor hit artists! Not the ideal year for it perhaps (everone else probably turned it down) but should be interesting.
February 17Feb 17 Interesting choice! Not sure I’ll be watching Eurovision this year due to obvious reasons but will be keeping up with the songs.
February 17Feb 17 Typical that the BBC choose this year to answer what I've been asking for for at least a decade and not only finally send a non-pop act, but one that I really like the material I've heard from before now. That's a good choice.normally by now I would have heard some of the field to work out whether the artist stands a chance, right now I have not, but I do hope that this is a choice that works out for the BBC and him.
February 17Feb 17 I've only ever heard of him from BJSC and didn't vote for either of those entries, but will keep an open mind. It certainly feels like an interesting choice (but one I wouldn't expect to connect in Eurovision based on what I've heard).
February 17Feb 17 Who? Who? And who? Never heard of him. Stop picking out these YouTube nobodies to represent eurovision
February 17Feb 17 1 hour ago, uhsting said:and we picked some popular uk artists and flopped so? And yet some of those winners songs were so terrible which made me wonder why they won
February 17Feb 17 All things considered, it at least seems like we're not going for the "safe" option - which although welcomed, does come with a big Electro Velvet style flop potential.Will reserve judgement until the song is released.
February 17Feb 17 Aelandor trendsetter. *.*Fantastic choice, a really cool artist who makes a lot of his own (usually analogue) synths. There's a lot that could be done with staging (I imagine loads of wires and industrial looking stuff everywhere) and I reckon he could pull off something both heavy and dancey if it's anything like Desperado Vespa (so perhaps broad appeal :O ), but will have to see what the song is like.
February 17Feb 17 Oh yeah and it's worth saying I was super impressed by this performance before deciding to enter Desperado Vespa to BJSC (I heard this before the studio version), from what I've seen he's a great live act.
February 17Feb 17 I sense quite a few turned it down before him, but great artist choice, I really liked his BJSC entries (and the artist name is wonderful), I sense this one won't be quite as unique, but I think my interest is piqued enough to give it a listen (I still can't bring myself to watch on the night though).
February 17Feb 17 So he mostly has more mid tempo Daft Punk influenced stuff like Desperado Vespa or not?So we will watch through fingers this year.
