‘Tiger’s Blood’ out today and it’s my favourite so far!

When I first listened to the album I never thought ‘Rein Me In’ would have been chosen as a single never mind being a recording breaking number 1 single. I still can’t really hear what’s that special about it

in the words of Wayne Rooney "it was crap"

I think ‘Viva La Vida’ would have went down better 😂

Well that’s me put in my place 😂

I’m liking this but I feel this should really be Kylie Minogue feat. Gary Lightbody. There’s nothing about this that feels like a Snow Patrol single.

Has 'Dancing On My Own' been featured on something for it to be as high?

I hear it quite a lot on TikTok so that's probably why

Album out today and had a quick listen and ‘Dublin Lights’ surely needs to be a single. Co-written with Ed Sheeran and is basically ‘Galway Girl’ part two but can’t get it out my head.

I doubt David Guetta had anything to do with this remix apart from agreeing they can use his name

This came up on my TikTok earlier. I would go with something like this. The BBC like middle of the road and Cammy Barnes is that but has a great voice and him playing the bagpipes adds something different.

Look Mum No Computer is an excellent choice of artist if he wasn’t stuck with a Swedish writing camp reject of a song. Also going back to artists with no record label means there is no budget for the staging and ends up being quite amateurish. With Sam Ryder, Mae Muller and Olly Alexander you could tell a major label was behind it.

Sounds decent! I wonder if they might get a BGT performance.

Martin played a preview of this on an Instagram live. It does appear to be finally getting released soon!

I like Lewis and I enjoyed 'Survive' but he really needs to change up his sound slightly. He just keeps releasing inferior versions of the hits from his first album. Surely something upbeat at least and not another piano ballad.

I think he postponed it because he got the role in Kinky Boots so wouldn’t be able to do much promo etc.

Yeah this is really good! Surely another hit for him

I could see this being a decent sized hit. I’ve heard it quite a lot on TikTok

“Turnstile” is fantastic! Can’t believe it wasn’t chosen as the lead single

Record label politics I think

The fact that everyone seems to love or hate it is a step in the right direction and what this type of song is supposed to do. Most reactions to UK Entry’s are usually “Yeah it’s alright” and then come last.

Out in New Zealand now and just had a listen. Not quite sure what I think. INo record label involved so the staging is going to be done on a budget which is a shame because this will need to be staged brilliantly for it be effective. Thomas Stengaard involved with the writing again so a song specifically written for Eurovision.

I feel this going to be a complete shambles or go down a storm with no in between! https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNRmk9yxR/

Funnily enough the fever part reminds of a cold I had last winter
