Brian Harvey - I Can (6th)

 

Chart Run: 199 (1 Week)

Wow, surprised about Big Brovaz and Brian Harvey! BB on reflection would have been a great entrant for us. BH less so.

Big Bro Thang is amazing song. I still listen to it at least once a week :lol: Shame it didn't represent us, as i think the Eastern Europeans (as well as Western) would have liked it :( I love it :D

 

I was convinced it would sail through to the final, especially as everyone i knew thought it was the only decent song competing :lol: Before it, i though 'hmmm....maybe Justin Hawkins will do it as hes still quite famous'. Then i heard the song an thought 'errrrrrrrrrrm...no' :lol:

I actually loved Justin Hawkins song. Not that I can remember how it goes now. But in all honesty Scooch was about the worst choice we could have made, in terms of getting votes.

Cyndi should have represented us instead of Scooch! I have no doubt that we would have finished Top 5 if she had! :wub: Also Dear Jon in 1995 would have won for us but instead we sent Love City Groove :nocheer:

I didn't rate Dear Jon much, but even Deuce would have done much better for us. (I loved Deuce actually, and though you can make comparisons with Scooch, it was the time that that style would have worked for us, and the gimmick wasn't so painfully obvious).

I thought Lordi charted last 2006. :huh:

This is *UK* Eurovision entries. British ones only.

 

But yes, Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah peaked at 25, chart run 59-{25}-36-58-69 and 5 weeks on.

Oh right. :D

 

I was thinking of UK Chart Runs of Eurovion entries, if not just British ones.

Samantha Janus??

From EastEnders!?!?

yep! she was a singer before she was an actress!

Not a very good one though :heehee:

 

Anyway, we will see if Jade makes the top 75 today...
