Not really… 6th - Ukraine 7th - Malta 11th - Ireland 12th - Armenia 13th - Albania 13th - Cyprus 13th - San Marino 14th - Australia 18th - Greece 20th - Spain 21st - Azerbaijan 21st - Croatia 21st - Iceland 21st - Norway 22nd - Estonia 22nd - Israel 22nd - Lithuania 22nd - Portugal 23rd - Georgia 23rd - Poland 23rd - Serbia 24th - Denmark 24th - France 24th - Romania 24th - Sweden 25th - Austria 25th - Belgium 25th - Czechia 25th - Finland 25th - Germany 25th - Italy 25th - Latvia 25th - Moldova 25th - Slovenia 25th - Switzerland 26th - Netherlands

The full tele-voting figures are out and we did appallingly. Pretty much bottom 2 in every country. Glad it’s looking to be top 10 though!

This is a lot of energy for a song competition. Like does it really matter? It’s supposed to be a fun night with some good music. No one’s career should be over because they had a bit of a bad result. She’s also already got a huge song with nearly 400m streams so I’m sure she’ll be fine.

The worst thing about us doing so poorly is we will probably not be sending a female bop again for a while. It’ll be a male power vocalist similar to Sam singing a ballad. Mae will be fine and the song will probably be a hit so won’t really affect her. She was never going to win anyway so no one will care tomorrow where she came.

Oh I take it back she actually sounded great at the jury’s vote. Someone listened to the feedback at least! @1657280429844570112

The BBC and Tap management are the ones who picked her and promoted her. So whoever is watching this performance and is in charge of the backing vocals are the ones that need to fix it. I wrote BBC as I don’t know the exact name of her sound engineer.

Really disappointed that this is the reaction now. I agree btw. Just disappointed with the BBC for not fixing these issues, it would be fine with some backing vocals added in. She’s fine on the verses but the chorus sounds so flat. We’ll only be getting points out of appreciation for hosting for Ukraine I feel.

The song is unbelievably bland. Don’t think this will do anything for her I’m afraid.

Electro Velvet is the worst song I’ve ever heard possibly. How anyone can hear that and put it above any of our other entries is beyond me.

This isn’t terrible, it’s basic though. I’ve listened to live clips of her on YouTube and I’m not impressed with her live vocal which is concerning. I think 15-20 placing is on the cards for this.

I wish but I feel we’re in for disappointment

I absolutely loved the first one. It had the right tone and was great for the budget it had. The second one is genuinely awful and such a step down. Little to no plot, everything left unanswered. Gore for the sake of gore and completely unrealistic deaths. Too long as well, so disappointed.

Nope. Just no.

Yeah 100% on this idea. PopJustice do one and it’s the only one I really use as it’s more catered to my taste.

Kate (well her label) has resent the song to radio in US. Hoping they’ve asked for a reset over here so it can go to #1!

Wow our entries have been so awful this millennium. 2022 Sam Ryder - Space Man 2017 Lucie Jones - Never Give Up On You 2011 Blue - I Can 2014 Molly - Children of the Universe 2021 James Newman - Embers 2002 Jessica Garlick - Come Back 2018 Surie - Storm 2009 Jade Ewen - It’s My Time 2005 Javine - Touch My Fire 2020 James Newman - My Last Breath 2007 Scooch - Flying The Flag 2019 Michael Rice - Bigger Than Us 2008 Andy Abraham - Even If 2003 Jemimi - Cry Baby 2016 Joe and Jake - You’re Not Alone 2004 James Fox - Hold On To Our Love 2001 Lindsay Dracass - No Dream Impossible 2013 Bonnie Tyler - Believe In Me 2000 Nikki French - Don't Play That Song Again 2012 Engelbert Humperdinck - Love Will Set You Free 2006 Daz Sampson - Teenage Life 2015 Electro Velvet - Still In Love With You 2010 Josh Dubovie - That Sounds Good To Me Everything below SuRie is different levels of horrific. Scooch is OK after a few drinks in a cheesy gay bar though.

Yeah I’m not sure where people are seeing £75 a ticket? I’ve just looked and there’s loads for £30-50 on ticketmaster.

I’m enjoying the game but I’m finding the wild Pokémon you encounter a bit underwhelming? Like lots of the same in different areas. Also getting Mew so early on seems bizarre to me.

#13 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Chart…

#4 isn’t terrible but I’m sure her team are disappointed not to be top 3

“No” is a BOP. All the new tracks are great. They have such a great discography.

‘Between Us’ is so good but very final in a Spice Girls ‘Goodbye’ way.

Story made the 6 o’clock news. Eek. LQSJM0CgN14

Nicki is now dragging Leigh-Anne all over Twitter with pics of her and her best friend. This is a mess.

This is a racially charged issue. The reason I don’t care if those DMs are real or not is because I am not going to judge the reaction of a black woman who worked with her. It is not my place to judge how she reacts.
