OMG was legit just listening to them and saw this video!!! so excited!!! Darline and Karl are incredible!!! think we're in with a shot this year! i love you guys
1) darline (genuinely like this, think it needs a bit more umph towards the end though) ps. just watched some of the girls videos and they look great live singers! 2) bianca (don't like the start but gets better and has the ending all the others need) 3) joe and jake (modern if bland but could be improved) .... 4) karl (bit too esc by numbers try hard for me but with a bit of work could see it working) personally i had hoped we would have a song with some kind of dance beat but thats my taste however i think this nf is a good step in the right direction for the uk and for me i would def vote for darline...just hope the bbc are willing to follow all this through and help the act that eventually wins improve as much before they get to the finals in may...also hope someone at the bbc has learnt how to stage and direct cameras this year!
Its a start from the BBC... baby steps. Glad to see Karl, Bianca & Joe and Jake in your top 3 chaps. Was surprised with Darline getting the number 1 from you, personally I think we have seen and heard this format time and time again and It will get lost in such a huge final. Agree with your comments on Karl, I play this song over and over and it just needs some more "umph" in chorus to stand out. Love wiwibloggs keep up the good work x
My top: 1) "Until Tomorrow" - I love it, on a listen through this was the only one I wanted to replay because I loved it 2) "When You Go" - I still quite like this, and I like the girls voice too 3) "Miracle" - I don't really like it, but it's the best of what I see as four bad songs, and it might have potential with a revamp, but right now it's just no
+Sister Phan Howlter Joe and Jake needs a really good chorus-something behind it. It just sounds like a build up to a chorus. I hope the money is just poured into the song that is entered.
this is GREAT I am obsessssed with the eurovison! ever since I was a kid!! lol I even score each song on a note book in the show!! :)) I like Biancaaaaa best!
I expected so much more from the UK as it was one of the "Biggest searches" made by the BBC but their is one song that I absolutely love and that's Darline! Until tomorrow is so good! Country and the UK never usually fits but in this case it definetly does! In my opinion I love it. Bianca's song sounds like "Let it go" by James something. its not a bad song but I don't think its special Joe and jake is very forgetable for me.
+Aine Doc When the BBC say anything like "our biggest search ever", you'd do worse than to replace every word with "lies!" We are talking about an organisation that never point blank states "Such and such a show was rubbish. No one watched it. We cancelled it."
Karl William Lund/Miracle is the one I keep coming back too. The more I hear it the more I like it. I know some people say it doesn't have a big finish but I don't think it needs to, it is was it is and doesn't need any tweeking.
I agree for top 1 I think it could surprise us because it is simular to The Netherlands entry in 2014 in my opinion. Country music is unique compared to all the moderny rock and pop songs :)
I was expecting MUCH more from the "biggest search of history for BBC". I like Bianca's song, it's the most eurovision piece and quite original. But probably a bad result for UK this year, what a pity.
I was expecting a little bit more from UK...but of the 6acts my top 3 is: 3: Joe and Jake / You're Not Alone 2: Darline / Until Tomorrow 1: Karl William Lund / Miracle Lets see what they can do on stage.
Think my top would be 'Better man' , followed by 'Until Tomorrow' and then 'Miracle' .... nice selection. Good luck with your choosing.. from Ireland (not a big fan of our own (Irish) choice which was chosen for us!)
I'm not a huge fan of Darline, but I think that's just because I don't like country music - I think with the right staging it could be brilliant though. My favourite so far is Joe and Jake, but I'd like to see all the songs performed live 😊
Bianca is the only one that stood out for me... I think she's only the one with any hope of doing well!! The others just failed to make an impression! Oh gosh, hopefully the BBC will come back even stronger next year...
My favourites are You're not Alone and Miracle. I also like Until Tomorrow. And others are just ok, I expected better from a song co-written by the one and only Leona Lewis. Bianca's song is just bland.
***** haha when I listened through the songs, I felt like all of them was boring, and I forgot them immidiatly, til I came to Matthews song, it immidiatly stucvked to my brain and I skept on humming it for hours, I havent listened to them again, but maybe u need to listen to them more then 1 time to actually like them
***** haha I see, I just think all of thoose songs are MEH... Well I dunno, no matter what u send tho, the most important part will be to make a good staging,
I think in the public vote it will be between Darline and Joe and Jake. I would be happy with either. Although Joe and Jake just edge it for me as I think they would give a more powerful performance on the night. But not being a music expert etc I would say 4 of the 6 are ok for eurovision. Remember the normal viewer don't really think about production values etc. Can I sing along with it? Is it memorable? Those are some of the things that will make it successful. Oh and Jake is deffo the bottom guys 😉😂😀
I feel like I'm in the minority for liking "When you go" I love it's quirkiness and originality but I can understand why others wouldn't like it. Personally it's a song I would rate very high but I can't see it doing well with the rest of Europe, unfortunately. The only other song I like is Miracle. I think the UK could get a great score with that song - though only the live version will tell, it could sound terrible. The rest I don't like.
Feel like Matthew James is really underrated!! I like that song, but they're all just a bit "meh". Like they'd probably all come a respectable 10th-ish, but no further up.
For me, the songs are just dull. 4 of them sound too similar, and the country ones are ok, at best. another right hand of the leaderboard finish for the UK :/
Until Tomorrow and Shine a Little Light are my favourites 👏🏻
Until tomorrow is the song. That's all. UK #1
#TeamDarline
OMG was legit just listening to them and saw this video!!! so excited!!! Darline and Karl are incredible!!! think we're in with a shot this year! i love you guys
1) darline (genuinely like this, think it needs a bit more umph towards the end though) ps. just watched some of the girls videos and they look great live singers!
2) bianca (don't like the start but gets better and has the ending all the others need)
3) joe and jake (modern if bland but could be improved)
....
4) karl (bit too esc by numbers try hard for me but with a bit of work could see it working)
personally i had hoped we would have a song with some kind of dance beat but thats my taste however i think this nf is a good step in the right direction for the uk and for me i would def vote for darline...just hope the bbc are willing to follow all this through and help the act that eventually wins improve as much before they get to the finals in may...also hope someone at the bbc has learnt how to stage and direct cameras this year!

"Until Tomorrow" is the best choice!
4:29 confirmed that Padraig is my spirit animal. #FullOn "That's all I have to say."
Darline - Until Tomorrow. My favourite! :D
My Favourite by far is *"You're Not Alone"* but I think that *"Until Tomorrow"* will do a lot better at Eurovision!
Dulcima, Jake and Joe or Darline are my favourites, they'll do my country well hopefully.
+Sister Phan Howlter Joe and Jake needs a really good chorus-something behind it. It just sounds like a build up to a chorus. I hope the money is just poured into the song that is entered.
I don't know why, but "A Better Man" is legit my favourite. I think it's just nostalgic reasons, which is also why the song shouldn't be discounted.
this is GREAT I am obsessssed with the eurovison! ever since I was a kid!! lol I even score each song on a note book in the show!! :)) I like Biancaaaaa best!

Bianca is my favourite I guess :P
None of these will win, but I'm still positively surprised :3
FADED IN THE BACKGROUND
Best trio from wiwi for me
Not another Bianca please!
Darline are my favourites, and also love Joe and Jake and Bianca :)
I was expecting MUCH more from the "biggest search of history for BBC".
I like Bianca's song, it's the most eurovision piece and quite original. But probably a bad result for UK this year, what a pity.
Matthew James gives me a "poor man's Robbie Williams" and it is sad because I feel like his vocals could be lent to something stronger... Hmmm.
I was expecting a little bit more from UK...but of the 6acts my top 3 is:
3: Joe and Jake / You're Not Alone
2: Darline / Until Tomorrow
1: Karl William Lund / Miracle
Lets see what they can do on stage.
my favourite is Matthew James. i don't think its dated. I think it will all depend on how its performed in the live show on friday
Shine a little light is the best here.
BTW William where are you from/ who do you support in ESC?
When Poland's top 3 ?
Think my top would be 'Better man' , followed by 'Until Tomorrow' and then 'Miracle' .... nice selection. Good luck with your choosing.. from Ireland (not a big fan of our own (Irish) choice which was chosen for us!)

*The others
+Ádám Török It's a little difficult to take Leona Lewis seriously at the moment when you consider that her last album failed miserably
+Robert Muscroft Yes, I guess you are right about that. Poor Leona :(
will we be seeing interviews from the selection tonight
my top 3
3. Joe & Jake
2. Darline
1. Karl William Lund
i think matthew james song should of entered in 1990 - 2001
do you guys agree that bianca was the best when she did it live wiwibloggs?
I hope they send Matthew Jmaes with a better man, that the only thing decent of thoose songs I feel
***** haha when I listened through the songs, I felt like all of them was boring, and I forgot them immidiatly, til I came to Matthews song, it immidiatly stucvked to my brain and I skept on humming it for hours, I havent listened to them again, but maybe u need to listen to them more then 1 time to actually like them
***** haha I see, I just think all of thoose songs are MEH... Well I dunno, no matter what u send tho, the most important part will be to make a good staging,
Joe and Jake!
Darline for me !
I think in the public vote it will be between Darline and Joe and Jake. I would be happy with either. Although Joe and Jake just edge it for me as I think they would give a more powerful performance on the night. But not being a music expert etc I would say 4 of the 6 are ok for eurovision.

Oh and Jake is deffo the bottom guys 😉😂😀
Agh, dont mention Tom Frantzis, still depressed he wasn't chosen for belgium
Wow. A Better Man is wayyyyy better than the other pappy teeny bopping nursery rhymes. Give me grown up songs any day.
I feel like I'm in the minority for liking "When you go" I love it's quirkiness and originality but I can understand why others wouldn't like it. Personally it's a song I would rate very high but I can't see it doing well with the rest of Europe, unfortunately.
The only other song I like is Miracle. I think the UK could get a great score with that song - though only the live version will tell, it could sound terrible.
The rest I don't like.
Feel like Matthew James is really underrated!! I like that song, but they're all just a bit "meh". Like they'd probably all come a respectable 10th-ish, but no further up.
Bianca came second, didn't she?
Who's top who's bottom...hahahahahahahahah...great William ...just great>:-)
I Think Im the only one who Think until tomorow is meh?
less talking more songs
For me, the songs are just dull. 4 of them sound too similar, and the country ones are ok, at best. another right hand of the leaderboard finish for the UK :/
all dreary and dull,feels like amateur night at your local pub.....UK nuil point again....BBC should be utterly ashamed.
