    This song is a massive guilty pleasure for me. It's just so camp and fun that i love it.

    This comes from a great British tradition of camp. We were just sending some British culture!

    So glad this one was on the list hahaha!
    I actually really like this UK entry - it's obviously a joke entry but seems in much better spirit than a lot of the stufff we have sent since.

    Its just a bit of cheeky British humour!

    This was the UK 'we don't care any more so here's some rubbish - enjoy' but it did make the UK top 10 singles.

    They are shocked by these subtleties from the UK. Have they never heard the song "Pour Some Sugar On Me?" Also British, but well known in the U.S.

    Now I realise why I like it so much it sounds like early Steps! It's an amazing song xxx

      @vavah2071 Před 2 lety

      Yes, I think it is (there's like 95% of chance but we never know)
      And I really hope, one of the prettiest song of all time

    • @saranissen6210

      Norway 2009 was better. "Fairytale" by Alexander Rybak. He played the violin for Christ sake. If that's not a ballsy thing to do I don't know what is. That song won that year, too.

    I already understood that Western fans (especially, Germany, UK, Netherlands) hate almost all their fun entries really much... probably, because of mentality, I don't know. But why everyone sees some cheese here? Cheese is when it's like 20th time when someone doing the same thing but I don't know any other Eurovision song with this idea. So, where is cheese/banality/etc?

    A massive guilty pleasure for me. Do not get the hate. Yeah it is generic and kinda cringy but it has a place in my heart forever.

    As a citizen of the UK, I apologise for what we sent to the ESC in 2007, and I hope that your ears and eyes have recovered by now. Mine haven't 😂

      Just in 2007?! 😜😜 I'm from Croatia and CRO music scene is not really good for the last 15 years (with exception of few songs) and I can understand when my country and Croatian television sends some BS to ESC... But UK, c'mon, WTF is BBC doing? I refuse to believe that UK can't send a decent song and a great vocal. C'mon...

    • @madabbafan

      Oh we have sent MUCH worse than this. Jemini and Josh Doubove for example

      @@madabbafan Yeah, but Germany is not better then the UK. We have so good artist, but nobody wants to sing at the ESC.

    • @fosterfuchs
      @fosterfuchs Před rokem

      Apologies? This is my favorite Eurovision song ever. It's so tacky, it's hilarious, and they should've won. (I was born and raised in Germany and moved to the U.S. when I was 17).
