I didn't think it was that bad. It's one of the ones I'm still humming so the hook was good. Bara Bara Bastu (Sauna!) had the best hook of the night though.
Ours was a little derivative. Once you get into the fast verse it's very easy to go into Billy Joel's "My life" and the end of the verse is very reminiscent of "who's gonna drive you home - tonight?" by the Cars. The performance was good for a change.
I think the problem is that we are still sending well meaning youngsters (in this case musical theatre performers) instead of our best performers. With the exception of Bucks Fizz, all of our winners have been established pop acts with at least one big hit behind them (Lulu - Shout, Katrina and the Waves - Walking on Sunshine, Brotherhood of man less so but had a big hit in Europe two years before Eurovision) .
I do wonder what would happen if we sent say Little Mix, Adele, Robbie Williams, Take That, Ed Sheeran or any of our massive recording artists. Other countries do this.
