У нас на сопортивном орентировании мужики из швецарии пошли босисом по снегу😌 крутые сиберяки..
И их прям по телику показали
@@user-ev9yo9ts6g could you trabslate in English please xx
im the 100th like lol
Sorry who is he again?
I loved it.
I love it that the UK send every year a song in their native language.. Not like most of the other countries
Oz Reshef suppose one thing going for United Kingdom is english is our native language and most music around the world that is popular is english music. But Shame U.K doesn’t come across in Eurovision these days.
this comment made me wheeze tbh
I agree that countries should portrait their own language and culture through the contest but well, English is from the most spoken languages in the world and it’s their native language so why would they ever not use it😅
Awesome comment lmao ;)
@@iouliaphotography the original comment is a joke xD
Every other country: Our song will win!
UK: Hopefully we get on the left side of the leaderboards!
Europe doesn't really like us do they
I would like to vote for you but i am from Kosovo so i cant
So true 😂😂😂
UK: Maybe we won't come last!
@@gracecope2543 That's not true, you just send mediocre songs every year. (Btw I'm from Spain and we are equally frustrated)
This was so much stronger than Embers. The guy in The Mail who said that James couldn't sing, just listen to this.
I agree 100%, this video is great as well. It just wasn't meant to be...:((
This is a much better song than the one he was given this year, a much better fit for his voice
I feel the same
I think he wrote both songs.
Yea i like this better than embers
Let's just hope the BBC spends more than £50 on the scene this year
They blow the TV Licence budget on this while other programmes have been cut back..Internal selection also bad idea.
wait did that happen hahahah
Yeah I know I went on the scene yesterday and spent twice that.
Na, lets just stick him on a box with a couple of lights around him.
We probably just gonna let him stand with a guitar and a mic stand....
"And I know that we're in trouble, but I swear that we'll survive!" ...that's an official motivation line for the whole world suffering from coronavirus. Together we'll survive!!
James smart newman
The guy in the video think he's from Holland he does breathing techniques and was on our UK TV about covid . Teaching exercises to help u breathing think its strange the song last breath and him giving great tips love this song and the team x I've defo followed his breathing exercises x
This is basically what happens to the UK every year:
- We think the song is quite good and think it has a good chance of winning.
- Then we perform the song and everything is still going ok, we still think we have a chance.
- The jury votes come on, we do not receive points from the first few juries, looks like false hope yet again.
- When we realise this, we just start to see who we can beat at the bottom, usually another Big 5 member.
- The jury votes end and we have a few points, but still near the bottom on the right side of the scoreboard.
- The televoting starts to happen, and we are one of the first countries to receive points, meaning we didn't get very many, and that moves us up a few spots.
- When televoting ends it turns out every single country overtook us and we are at the bottom again.
It's really difficult being a British ESC fan.
Don't be upset, you don't win because you don't want to spend money on a reception Еurovision in your country, and you have good songs! But generally a cool review and reliable!
You don't deserve thi. You were my winner in 2017. My 5th favourite country ever. This song and 2019 one are both amazing!!!
Especially considering you are a country with the most second places in history (last one in 1998 though), last top 3 finish 2003. I do think you had a good chance with James so I think picking him again would be wise. He just needs some tips from his brother about stage presence and he will be fine.
This song was a top 15 finish for sure. Too bad the contest didn't take place.
@@eladnewberger Excuse me but do you really think such celebrities are interested in going to Eurovision?! Even James' brother is famous and I'm sure he doesn't want to go near an Eurovision stage. The last big stars UK send were Blue and even they were at their peak in the 90s and 00s, not now. ESC is where dreams (and fame) usually go to die.
I think this entry would have not received 0 total points
Me either
I think whatever we sent this year, we’d have got 0 points
Maybe like 5
Still be in bottom 5 I think
Like it's ever about the song... UK gets 0 frequently. I don't like how it is but it's just how it is.
Go James! Love
Didn't expect to see you here, great work! Will you be joining him on stage as well?
En er zit een Nederlander in het filmpje hoor
Yep
EEEY WIMMETJUUH
Wim!! ❤️
Honestly I'm shocked to see some negative comments this is most credible thing UK have sent in decades
There will always be negativity but number of views is amongst the highest and the likes are strong. As usual most of the negativity is from the Brits
@@LA90598 totally agree with you, so fed up with fellow Brits complaining about us always coming last then slagging off our own song. Granted it’s not a winner but it’s a very credible song and I’m really standing by our entry this year, proud of it no matter what happens 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Because I didn't get a chance to choose and because we should be sending a house tune that's more our charts now than that which sounds 5 years ago. Which done by other countries as well. Have to stick out to do well these days to be memorable. This isn't
It really sounds like straight from the radio :D very modern
@@fairylady011 On BBC Radio 2 it is lol
Typical. We send the best song we have had in so many years to Eurovision and it gets cancelled. The pain never ends for us in ESC
just like liverpool in PL
Was a damn good song.
I no best song I think *touch wood UK would have won😂😂
Exactly what I was just about to say!
I totally agree this is the best song we have had in many years it would of got at least second to bottom with the corrupt way that they vote buy hey on the plus side at least we would of beaten Norway this year.
If the 2020 contest weren't cancelled I believe this would've probably gotten one of the UK's best scores in years. I know that's not saying much, but still.
I am listening to it with pleasure..it is a radio -friendly song ..I cannot understand why people dislike it :/greetings from Greece 🇬🇷🇬🇧
It's getting a lot of reaction for sure...Finally Europe seems to be loving us again x
The UK sends mediocre material and a lack of choice. I found lots of songs that would do better at Eurovision but we had no choice
@@veggie42 The song needs more work to be a real "hit". It´s too boring and monotonous. But the start was good and than it collapsed in the end. If UK had sent a song like "Human" with Rag n Bone Man, it would have been different as that song feels more genuine and dynamic.
@@ann-christinenilsson4046 Yes but no to like Human. This year we have lots of dance house music dominating our music scene yet it's not being reflected same with Hip Hop instead Belgium and Germany reflect UKs scene more
@@veggie42 People in general don´t seem to like what dominate the charts in the UK in ESC but I don´t know. I compared the song to "Human" as it is in the same genre of music. That song would have done great in ESC, I think.
Are we really not gonna talk about the fact that this is the brother of the world famous musician John Newman?
Everybody knows that, lol, even John tweeted about it. It's no secret that he made songs for his brother too!
@@icecranberry2148 No, James is relatively unknown outside of the UK. His last name sounded familiar, so I looked him up and found out.
@@shiguCS I meant people know now that he is bis brother. It doesn't matter how known he actually is, everyone knows he is related to John NOW, that's what I meant. Usually songwriters are in the shadow anyway although the song wouldn't have been as popular if it wasn't for them.
"World famous"? I don't know him. And does it matter?
At first glance I thought it was John's name on the link, but nonetheless, I see that singing is in their blood. Great voice.
I love your song United Kingdom, I truly believe in you!! 12 points from Sweden🇸🇪
Thank you also, Sweden 🇸🇪...
You got an awesome gospel song, which I know will do very well.
Hallelujah!
12 points also... You deserve them.
same back to ur girls
I'm from Sweden and I don't think we should give our 12 points to UK. Sorry not sorry.
Vixikie no one cares mate
So much better than his 2021 effort, a pity this didn't get the chance for us, with some imaginative staging I think it would have done well.
Agree
What do people actually want from the UK!?? This is such a step up and improvement from the UK. I can see this being the kind of song that is lifted by a live performance. I think the expert juries will love it too. Let's try and be optimistic - this is the right direction forward for the UK. Will it win - probably not--but this is not a bottom 5!
Lifted to what???? No!!!
we want something new! this could be a ed sheeran or shawn mendes song, this is a basic song for esc, if you want a ballad make it as big as arcade or rise like a phoenix. we want to see esc for acts on the same level of iconicness as eleni foureira, kate miller-heidke, sergey lazarev, loreen, hatari, iveta mukuchyan, dami im and others.
Lets face it, if this was a known artist then people would be all over it. This guy is actually an amazing songwriter and I feel it's going to do really well in the show!
I think they want somebody like Adele or Sam Smith😂
I agree. They always set the bar extra high for the UK and its so unfair. If this was Australia, or Sweden, they'd be hyping it up. After the disastrous few years at ESC for the UK, this is 100% a marked improvement!
First time I've ever seen a UK entry become the no.1 trending in the UK 🤯
You gotta it... in the Uk, but not the world... 👍🏼 this is appealing for the Uk population, which that’s not what Eurovision is all about... a big fail.
@@edicarlos4704 Actually Eurovision is about appealing to the around 200 million casual viewers who will be hearing every single song on the night for the first time (oh and the professional juries who will sit up and take notice of a Grammy nominated songwriter in the competition)
Edi de Oliveira This song is hardly a big fail is it? It has only been released for 12 hours (at the time of writing) and is already one of the most popular songs released by views so far. And so what if the Uk population is admiring something they’re sending, it’s not like any of the big 5 ever have the slightest chance of winning.
EcSight Games oh the mentality of entering the competition almost empty tank... reach for the win UK delegation, this is not a winner song, but a middle place, the big 5 needs to reach for a performance like Loreen until then... keep releasing cosy winter songs for the UK population to admire... haven’t we have had enough of that already?
Reckoning last year song was a good one, the problem was the staging was like watching a train wreck... really horrible... maybe If the Uk invested in their performance appearance from every single aspect of it... a shirt with a jeans won’t cut... everything needs to be polished, d u know why Sweden is the best, because they know how to make good publicity / good pr, and they support their act all they way... the Uk is just a slack... I’ve seeing videos of James singing this song live in a pub with a shirt and jeans... Meh no nope... unless the Uk step up 💯 notches nothing will come out of it... what is good for the Uk doesn’t necessary mean good for the world, and by the way... the Uk doesn’t vote for its own act, the world does!
+12 points for the whole package: the singer, the man in the shoot and the doggo. Great message, UK! Good luck from Bulgaria!
It's not often we Brits actually get 12 points for real but thanks anyway! I believe in the 2011 voting you gave us 12?
Wim Hof
Thank you Bulgaria, it's about time UK brought in a decent song........then I heard Bulgaria's Victoria song....she will win it.
@@Cpr1234 I would have to go back and check, but it does sound about right! Good luck. ^-^
Now this is quite interesting, cause the song is not that average like uk's latest entries. This could actually do quite well.
its really average what are you on about
I think the phrase your looking for is ‘it was pretty average to me’
@@douglastakle8242 actually its really good i love it
I think that with the right staging this could have done better then recent years but tbh I have mixed views on it. He has an amazing voice but mixed opinions in the song. 🙂
My opinion on this song is the same as all the other eurovision songs the United Kingdom has had for the last decade -
Deluded optimism.
UK is always so underrated in my opinion! Put them higher on the odds, let them get heard of. 12 points from Sweden
love from UK
Rackare they’re always so low because of brexit
Visst var den bra? Tycker den borde få mer cred 👌🏻
Kajsa. R - W Aa verkligen :)
Jaaa
Wim Hof! This song gets 12 points if he does an extreme ice bath on stage whilst the guy is singing.
Ngl that would be a really good idea 💡👌❄🎶
He is Dutch, so it wouldn't even be that weird.
Although I'm Dutch myself, as well as Wim is, replace him with Shem von Schroeck, ToTo's bass player as that guy REALLY is a sight for sore eyes!!!
This is the UK so it needs to be a bath of frozen Heinz baked beans
Fully in, let it go😁
I can’t believe it, we had a Banging entry and now Eurovision is cancelled, I feel cheated 😭😭😭
We got a whole year or more to come up with something a lot better.
I look forward to finding out what big hitter we'll have in 2021.
Adam Davies I feel like we should keep all the same contestants though don’t you ? But then part of me thinks we need some one bigger , we’ve taken a step in the right direction , hopefully they don’t go cheap next year just because money was wasted this year !!
If it comes down to James Newman again in 2021, with the same song... I'm done.
No thank you.
We got artists in the UK that have been hugely popular and successful, with songs known all over the world.
We get... James Newman.
Don't need, don't want.
Adam Davies Yeah true , did you see that live version he did ? Wasnt the best was it , probably saved ourselves this year haha , on to bigger and better next year
@@ollyfurey5871
Yeah, I heard it... My reaction was 🤨😲😑
This was not James Newman!
This was flat and just tuneless.
Wheres the big hitting Love Shine A Light banger that will save the UK and eurovision?
I like this entry more than Ambers....
*embers
I'm really glad that the UK sent this song. I really hope they'll get a decent result this year. They have been underrated for way too long.
Orr Lusky UK is not underrated. Maybe you guys should send better songs. Also I really like the song this year
@@helloworld9132 I'd say it's a mixture of the two. Some of our songs are not bad at all, it's just no one likes us
@@helloworld9132 Hey, I'm actually from Israel
@@ace-of-hearts-xox I'd say we've been messing up tbh.
2015, 2016 and 2018 weren't that good.
2017 wasn't awful, but it was obvious jury bait, let's be real.
2020 (this year) is better, but it still isn't good enough.
If we truly want to do well, we should have a much better NF. Not just 6 songs. Maybe if it was even 2 semis of 5-10 songs, where 6 go to a final, it'd be much better. Also, we could consider allowing eurovision professionals or other countries to vote on our songs slightly, just to increase the chance a well-liked song is picked.
Lol everyone just hates us politically that’s why they don’t vote us
You know what, Eurovision or not, if you listen to the lyrics it's actually pretty touching.
That's what it's all about. The story behind the song, lyrics and the quality of the song. Not if it's up tempo or not, some people needs to start getting that
Yes but has to be memorable because there are a lot of songs and have to remember them
Collette Post and Mike Lonette you are both right
The one time the UK feels good about the entry, the world had to just come and screw us over didn't they.
Yep
The UK always "feels good" about whatever they send and expect to win. People then throw a tantrum when the cheesy pop song flops.
comfort yourself in the knowledge that this is mediocre trash, and russia would've won.
@@Mscape7 Yup whilst some cheesy nonsense wins for another country. Netta obvs was a classic, written song.
@@Mscape7 Imagine if we sent a song with chicken clucking sounds.
This is in top 5 my 2020 list.
The best thing about this song is that it actually doesn’t sound like it’s a UK Eurovision entry. It’s just a good track, catchy, anthemic, sounds like it could be from Russia or Ukraine and they always do well at Eurovision. Our best song in years, and with a bit of luck this might actually get us to the left hand side of the scoreboard😁😁😁😁
It sounds too similar to other songs
@@veggie42 Lol literally not true
LEFT SIDE COME ON
It sounds like a British radio song, Europe doesn't understand that it means a lot to us
@@MicaelaHB03 Radio 2 song* whilst younger people in Europe would like a funkier song. The Portuguese one was a surprise doesn't mean UK has to copy twice in a row
UK - I really like your song (it is now on my playlist) - that is for sure no bottom 5 song - well done UK and love from Germany ♥
OFFICIAL ESC ❤️🇬🇧❤️🇩🇪❤️
Hopefully we can both join the ‘bot bottom 5 club’😂
Vielen danke Deutschland 💓
There's no accounting for bad taste in music.
Thank you! Most of my favourite bands are German :)
@Smithy Chris mate its eurovision... did you really have to go there? Let me guess...bitter Irishman?
better than the one this year in my opinion
This song is better than 2021
Much better than the last 2 years, this is a lot more authentic.
Authentic? It sounds way too similar to their entry of 2019. lol
Storms don't last forever was definitely better than this
@@eric7798 I meant authentic to him, he wrote the song and was behind it unlike all eurovision you decide singers
Really? Authentic??? C'mon!!!
@@CokexMezz what really? He was behind the composition therefore whether you like it or not the fact he was behind it makes it authentic.
Wow this is such a beautiful song! Congratulations UK ... 12 points from Sweden 👏🏻💕 🇬🇧 🇸🇪
Nämen tjena då
I had no idea this was even a Eurovision song, just came across it on Spotify. But damn this would’ve been good if it went ahead
Does anyone remember when we actually tried to win?
1998 or 1999 was probably the last year the UK tried to win. My Last Breath was finally a good song from the UK even though it probably wouldn't have won.
@@gyrozeppeli884 Thought It's my time sang Jade Ewen was a very good attempt
I remember when the UK won the last time with Katrina and Love Shine A Light
And then it gets cancelled????
@@Luke-jv5iw The best entry in years then sadly it's got cancelled, We still wouldn't have won no matter who or what song we send
Me : John Newman !!!!!!
After i read it again : Oh ok its some James Newman
sksksksks i thought the same thing
They're brothers
@@harrybenson1690 Oh i i didnt know that he have some brother thank you 🤣
@Tara king Oh thank you for info 🤣
bhjbrjhgb same, i just woke up and was like ''oh my god! john newman! ...oh'
I'm mean it's definitely not a winning song but it will take the UK out of the bottom 3! Best entry since Lucie Jones 😎🇬🇧
the uk should be ashamed of this statement. if they want to compete, they have to care about winning.
caio césar the U.K. want to try but it’s the BBC who don’t.
ESC Lisa Germany agree!! With a good staging can do well!!
BBC can start by hiring decent stage directors for a change. There's been hits and misses thesd last couple of years..
@szöszmötölj tovább, fiam in which way does my gender define my comment/ the likes? I just commented my opinion...
Is it just me or the countries that usually lose have rlly good songs this year? Too bad Corona happened because I love this song! As well as the other countries that usual lose!
Good luck from Germany
Let's put this into perspective. This is a good step forward on the journey that the BBC and BMG are taking us on. It's not eurovision by numbers or safe as last year's entry was. They clearly learnt from Duncan, by sending an artist with their own song that is personal to them and some creative control. I hope this take us out of the 21-26 zone as a start. Lastly, I think that BMG and BBC need to start looking for the next artist immediately after the contest in May. Give them the time to think and produce their own entry, which will deliver better results. But all in all, a good foundation to build on.
If I compare this song to say...Rag n Bone Man and the song "Human", there is a big difference, in my opinion. That song sounds more genuine and has more dynamic elements in it. The song "My last breath" is a bit monotonous and repetitive in the end and I wish that it would lift off and blow my mind but it doesn´t. But there are elements in the song that are good but it is not good enough. There are many different reasons why the songs from the UK don´t do so well in the ESC, so have realistic hopes for the future. Is it really that important for the UK to win the ESC as you already has done that in the past? There are so many different kind of songs from different genres of music coming from the UK and are doing so well all over the world anyway.
Ann-Christine Nilsson that’s exactly my thoughts, there’s nothing memorable about this song that would make it stand out from 25 other songs.
@@Sam-op6us No, but I like these kind of songs though but they need to work more on the song to make it a "hit" and the song is also too short. In ESC it seems to be important to have a good staging aswell that fit the song.
This is bad. It’s bland and forgettable.
MrMakeDo to be fair I think it’s better than other songs this year
I love this song ! Definitely in my top 5 for the moment... I honestly don’t get why everybody seems to dislike the UK every year ; they have rarely disappointed me in the last few years : I literally loved Bigger Than Us and Never Give Up On You ! And I can’t stop listening to this one ! Good luck from France 🇫🇷
:/
Where do we start?
Finally the UK send someone good. Great song, and great singer
This is so good! I can't believe it, but thank you UK for improving this year's quality! Good luck, James!
12 points from the Netherlands!!! Good job UK!!!😍😍😍😍
For those of you who are confused and keep thinking this is our 2021 entry it isn't.This is last years entry as he has made a new song for this year that will be released at a later date
I think this is the best song for the UK in a decade or more. 12 points from Portugal, I actually like it very much!!
This is the first song of the UK I’ve liked in years 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 LET US WIN🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
People’s republic Of kapathian it won’t win. It’s far too bland and forgettable.
MrMakeDo did I say it would win though. and based off the passed UK entry’s it’s quite good (but that’s not hoed to beat)
MrMakeDo Gordon Ramsey, shut up.
This is really nice! Good luck to the UK ❤️ Lots of love from Norway 😘
Not sure if many people in the UK realised that the guy in the video is Wim Hof. He has become popular from a BBC show this year.
I like this song more than this year's song
Embers is much better than this (My last breath is my 38th of 2020 but Embers is my 11th (from the 32 released songs))
@@RazHa985 uhh, this aged well...
This could really come alive on stage there's no doubt his vocals are really good it all depends on staging hopefully the BBC don't ruin it 🤞🇬🇧

@@annag1202 It shouldn't do, French have stolen that John he's worse
@@veggie42 haha, yes, I think you’re absolutely right there, we’ll come second to last this year 🙂I love this song, but I’m 53, I think we need our song to be selected by a group of teens and young people, not the BBC, or a record company that doesn’t understand the contest. I don’t like the Greek entry but it’s very popular, and now Serbia too, which is absolute trash in my opinion. Oh well, hopefully James has a thick skin and will be able to laugh it off. It’s only Eurovision after all 💕
@Colin Gregson haha I’ve already filled my Jerry can and got the matches ready. If a decent song wins I might hold off for another year, but if it’s that utter garbage from Serbia that everyone is drooling over then call the fire brigade. James Newman will probably have to dress as a hooker and twerk to save us now. Oh well. 😔

GOOD LUCK FROM FRANCE
love from UK
Your entry is ours last year!😮
12 point from greece👏🇬🇷🇬🇧congratulations!❤
Thanks, I guess....
I actually believe this could've been top10 with the juries
I Think this is by far the best song they have released in the last 10 years. This song feels so much more international and radio friendly. If Sweden would have send it to Eurovision everyone would love it, but its the UK so a lot of Eurovision fans are toxic af...
well said
Rapid Lightning I do agree. If this was Sweden it would be... “oh what a contender top 5!” There is a stigma with UK. Last time they were top 5 was 2009.
Stop saying that nonsense remember sweden 2018 got 2nd with jury but BOTTOM 4TH with televote (16 as i remember)
Noone cares about the country (at least by the comments I read for like 5 years) last decade uk had 2 good song 2014 and 2017
If they've sent quality songs boone would've been "toxic"
sweden would never pick this, look at their national final, these guys understand eurovision.
Very well said
If this doesn’t get on the left side of the board then idk- this is one of the UK’S best entries! It’s catchy and the singer has a beautiful voice! x the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Will you vote for us and ask your friends and family to as well

Italy did better with faster songs and Ol' Sole Mio lol songs like Just One Cornetto we sang in the UK the commercial for Cornetto ice cream cones filled with ice cream with gondoliers going along the canals of Venice.... unfortunately their song should be Oh Coronavirus... they will be possibly forced to pull out if entry is from that region could have self isolation of acts
This is definitely a grower. I really wasn't sure at first but after a few listens it really grows on you. Not a bad effort at all.
Yes, agree, the problem is I’m not able to listen for more than 0,5 times.
its ok but needs to build bit more to big note hopefully they give it bit more oomph.
Davey Horner that’s the biggest problem. with eurovision, 95% of the people hear this song for the first time. if its a grower that could mean trouble
@@JoffreyBaratheon true. I've just heard German entry that my fav so far first listen
@@Me.ddddddddddddd I like that too it's cooler
this song is criminally underrated. UK finally sent a good song after so many years!
united kingdom is my favorite this year !!!!
love from uk
Thank you also... We might get the negative comments from the UK, but Europe loves our song.
Thank you for liking it also.
By the way,, I'm still crying inside from 🇨🇭 and 🇧🇬's songs.
Both should win this contest, but there can be only one that will make me open the waterworks.
This song reminds me of some songs I heard when I was a child. Somehow i feel very comfortable and secure while listening to this song. 😅 12 Points from Germany 🇩🇪❤️
I can‘t help it... I LOVE it! ❤️
When he sings „If we were deep sea divers...“, it gives me goosebumps.
Definatly Top10 for me.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Thank you for that 😃 also a really good entry from Germany this year, perhaps this year we won’t be holding hands at the bottom of the scoreboard 🤞🏻Greetings from U.K. 🇬🇧
Thanks Anna! 😘
So let’s hold hands in the Top10 instead!
( I don‘t wanted to be so bold and say „at the top“ ☺️)
@@HP4630 France will hold hands at the bottom with whichever ballad will barely make it to the final...xD
Best entries this year : UK, Italy and Germany
Germany 🤦♂️
johnk Germany is my favorite this year
Iceland 👌
@@Monitorbear sorry bro ...
from other countries also listen to songs, maybe you will appreciate someone else!
Even though Eurovision is cancelled, James still won in my heart. He was amazing and such a good singer compared to the last few entries. His song also doesn't sound like one of those cliche fuckboy songs and instead it feels like it has actual emotions and it's a living being. Congrats James.
I love this song! Will be voting from Germany for it
Vielen Dank Mann!
Von einem anderen Sammy 😉
Wow the uk might not flop this year. Thanks for the vote man
Love from UK.i'll be voting for Germany..it's Brilliant !
Thank you for the vote 😊
@@darrenrichards7978 I like Lithuania,Belgium,Spain and Ukraine so far
Best UK entry in years..Its actually quite modern, and has a hook!
Reminds me of Catch my Breath by Allie X that bit does
Hopefully he wins it for us. We haven't had a winner since 1997 and I wasn't alive to see that happen
@@Cpr1234 I was asleep and remember it winning only less than a fortnight when I first voted in a General Election for Labour and Blair won in 1997 and I was only 18!
That's not saying a lot about this awful UK entry.
it’s a bit lack lustre, he’s dutch and he doesn’t reach many high notes etc. but it’s okay-ish
The eternal question - would this one have done better than our 2021 offering?? Felt a bit sorry for him, Embers wasn't in his range and he was recovering from Covid :(
This song is a Generic ballad while Embers was a Generic pop song
(In My Opinion)
My Top 1 this year😍😍😍😍
This song is what I wanted from Uk. Good pop song. I really like it. Finally, after two years, they send something I like.
Love from UK
This isn't pop
I'm glad you like this song. I've only seen / heard this video a few times today; I think the chorus is reasonably catchy (more so than the last two years). This will need to be well performed live, and accompanied by good staging that is appropriate for this song.
I got really excited because I thought it was John Newman, an “Love Me Again” is still such a catchy song in my head after so many years, but oh well best luck to his brother
According to wikipedia, James is the older brother of John Newman
Its john newman's brother 😀
_Love Me Again_ would have won Eurovision had it competed in 2013.
This is a really good song
Real good luck form the netherlands🇳🇱
This would won
Its now in my top 3
Love from Poland 🇵🇱❤🇬🇧
Love from UK x
Video clip recorded in Poland 🇵🇱👍
@@annawinek560 i think this song is so good from UK..the best for many years
This represents the UK music industry really well. One of their best efforts in recent years.
I love this song! I’ve listened to it sooo many times already. I have so many favourites this year. 🙈
United kingdom got this in the bag in the top 10.
Well it will never have then chance to represent us so we'll never know.
Cue the usual negativity. If it was Sweden or Austrsilia you'd be knocking one out to it. Quality from the United Kingdom.
If Australia or Sweden sent this everyone would be dragging it and saying it would only qualify for the final because of the juries so no
Both countries have lots of acts to choose from and have proper selection contests, the UK doesn't
Finally some Uk song that really represents uk music industry ... I like it. So far, my favourite from Big 5 ( Because Italy doesn't choose Ringo Starr, still hurts).
Outstanding! 12 points from Russia 💙 🇬🇧 🇷🇺
No. 12 points to Little Big! ❤️
It's the best entry from the 🇬🇧 UK since 2013 to be honest.
2017.....
UK, welcome to the "not bottom 5 club" ☝🏻
❤😂 not bottom 5 club , i love you 🤣
Hope so, fingers crossed
Pleasure to be here
Tim Bates I’ve forgot what it feels like
My gut says bottom 5, nothing stand out that is going to get the public to pick up the phone. Hope that I'm wrong and sorry to be negative.
After so many years first time i like UK's song
What about 2017
In my opinion the obvious winner this year. Great lyrics, melody, video, production and arrangement. Congrats England (even if the contest in itself was cancelled). (Greetings from Sweden).
Hahhhh, this would be another last place entry, it's outdated, generic, and tbh not much different than our last place entry last year. Please don't encourage them
Dark horse of Eurovision 2020.
It is indeed possible that this could rack up the points, but....
I'm already crying inside from 🇨🇭'S song.
But... Yeah, this could be the dark horse this year. Might not win, but it'll exceed where other songs have failed.
Well Denmark?
@@stanleyshepherd-brown6004 Denmark is also good!
Top 10
I love this song. Right now UK is my winner. Greetings from Poland!
Really good. If this was from Sweden, Australia or Russia... it would do well and everyone would praise it... but since it's UK everyone seems to treat it like it's America...
Good luck from Albania♥️
Not Australia though, Australia could send Bohemian Rhapsody and people will still say "I expected a lot more from the Aussies"
No. Not good from any country!!!
Spot on
@@Oscar-Green facts. australia turned out to be a queen in esc and we stan. australia came to slay and it's lovely that you guys are the best representers of english-speakers at the contest (and the uk not).
If it was from Sweden so many people would complain about almost everything.
Everything from him being a man, about the song being in English, of the song being radio friendly, it being generic, well produced, and on and on.
I like that song! Good luck from the Czech Republic!
James Newman & John Newman so Talented
Did John compose the song?
@@catsnmi270 Nope, James did. But James also composed many of Johns songs.
