Blue represented United Kingdom at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest in Düsseldorf, performing the song 'I Can'. United Kingdom came in 11th position in the Final with 100 points. - Zábava
For a band named blue that stage is pretty green
+Sian B. They realized too late, that green is the best colour...
because they wear blue suits ;)
we give Blue in the Eurovision they get to watch in in TV for Free and this is the Thanks we get WOW
Sian B. best colour ever... ;-)
I remember this year for the crappy sound , I guess both Germany and Austria (2015) neglated the knowledge that was availble and since they are the allknowing germans they went with their own solution , They dont know what good sound sounds like -you can see it within their own choices to eurovision.
Lee's voice is one of a kind no matter what. Apparently he was very anxious and couldn't control his breathing. Anyone can have a bad day even when performing on the finals.
Such a great song with a powerful meaning that lifts me up and boosts my vibes.
He was great never would have guessed he was very anxious.
only because i saw the video first (it's 2024 :D ) i could tell ,that he probably wasn't 100% vocally there...but man, we talk about tiny details,the man has an extraordinary voice no matter what
This is like a grammar exercise ''I can, I will, I know...''
Well played, Britain :* ♥
Juan Baer there should be also you can, he can, she can etc
Next year, theyll be teaching people the difference between your and youre..
the UK's best entry for a long time
It still is
Along with 2017 which came in 15th place and 2009 which came in 5th place.
@@Matsuna13 Those three were indeed the best UK entries of the last 10 years.
Still is, my 21st century best for the UK although they quite blew it.
If only they could sing as well! 😃
Winner Song!!! Still listening in 2021
This came 5th in televoting and 22nd with the juries... get rid of the juries... "musical experts" more like people who fix voting
To be fair though the juries ranked us higher than the televoters in 2009, 2010, 2013 and 2014, only 2011 and 2012 were we marked down a lot.
They focused far more on the vocal side of the performance, and that was far from perfect at the UK act. Plus the song is quite an ordinary radio track.
Some people also think they marked us down for trying to get "cheap votes" by sending a famous act.
Seriously? The reason the juries were brought back is because the Brits were complaining about the Eastern European public "fixing" the voting.
Their jury performance was also pretty not-great.
I'm still listening to this song in 2020. Great song! Greetings from Russia.
I'm from the UK and this is my personal favourite entry we've ever sent
I am listening from Azerbaijan still in 2020. It my favorite groups tooo)))
Me too:)
Just heard it on BBC Radio 2. What a great song. On Eurovision night
I still remember the feeling that this song gave me when I listened to it for the first time while watching Eurovision. Great song!
I really like that song. Their live performance might not have been the best, but it's a song contest. They really deserved a better place
No. It is a song AND performance contest. That's why they have live singing and not recorded performances. I agree that the song was catchy but boy, they murdered the notes while singing it.
Think there was technical issues with mics n stuff as I know blue can sing better live than this
@ Ema Paulauskaitė The perfomance was terrible and the song forgettable
I think Lee had bad day hahaha
"Might not have been the best" is the understatement of the century 😂😂
I was so proud. Blue is my favorite band for 12 years, they helped me so much through rough times. & having them on stage after 5 years they decided to stop, was the most magical moment last year. Thank you Blue, still waiting for you to come in France. Love.
Best result for The UK this decade... Since 2010!
Agree, and that was the only time UK finished on the left hand side of the scoreboard. In 2017 they almost did it (10th in juryvotes with 99 points!!!) but at the end they fell to 15th after receiving just 12 points in televote!
If you are counting 2009, 2009, 2011 and 2017 are the best results in the last 10 years
@@Matsuna13 jade nearly saved us that was our last hope until this and then it went down hill
@kevlan1979 yeah
UK would be a powerhouse if they didn't sent "cRy cRy BaBy LiEd tO mE BaBy."
Come on UK and sent a great song, and haters, stop hating.
Lee Ryan what a voice...!!!
Hell, yeah! When his solo album was released, he was being compared to Luther Vandross.
And he had a bad day that day
He's used to be a very good singer but he's absolutely awful here.
@@summertummer2394 they had mic issues . When he first sings the high note you can see he was not happy
He sounds awful on here. I know hes good tho
I love the heartbeat they place before each song, so deep and powerful!
the most underrated entry :(
yeah, they were the best!
But It gaves more Underrated entries
It was not underrated. The public gave it 5th place. Juries screwed them.
So underrated!!! Still listening in 2018!!!! Perfection.... ❤❤❤No1
Lee’s voice is truly captivating. His falsetto is truly beautiful. I have recently rediscovered Blue and much of their music is amazing. After I originally listened to All Rise (one of my fave songs of all time and my fave from them of their entire discography) and completely loved it, I discovered they competed in Eurovision and this is my second fave of their entire discography. Love this song. The performance and song is truly perfect.

Well at least Blue got 100 points in the final.
+Nizar Bouaouad But they were still beaten by Jedward.
+Streatham Soprano because the juries vote for their friends eg swedish son writers Ireland where overated by juries when they had swedish writers. but blue beat them in televotes.
+brittany watts if it wasn't for the juries, we would've finished 5th
hi
fak songen
I'm a 25 years old italian girl and I literally grew up listening Blue and I remember when 5 years ago I knew that Blue wuold represent UK in Eurovision I cried like there is no tomorrow, was one of the best moment of my life seeing them performing together once again
this was a clear winner and the best band we have had at Eurovision in years
Simon, Duncan, Lee, Anthony... Perfect song just like your old songs, love from Turkey 🇹🇷❣️
I still listening this guys for 19 yrs. Magnificent
I love how Lee can hit those really high notes
Not that day
@@dariodelpesomartinez7069 he was really nervous
It was like he couldn't breathe. But he sang well and he was able to get out of the situation.
Winner song but the sound was really a problem and the staging is pretty cheap. UK deserved more!
Andrei Pisarciuc is guess we can blame Germany this time
Nick G for the juries definitely as it came 22nd. But the televoting it wasn’t the case. Uk got 5th which imagine nowadays what that would look like.
Lee used to be a good singer but he's unbearable here. Worst vocals in Eurovision ever!
@@summertummer2394 I think he had a cold or something. But yeah such a shame for such a great singer.
There were technical issues on the night with ear plugs etc so they struggled even the bbc complained to the german broadcaster
The best UK entry in the 21st century!
I LOVE THIS SONG... It was one of the best at the show and the best of BLUE...
Did you know Televoting saved this? It placed 5th in tele and 22nd between the juries.
yeh a rare case of it being that way round
a poland 2016 =P
apparently the juries view the dress rehearsals and they were having technical difficulties during the rehearsals. :/
Well, they can't sing, so I guess they deserved this. It sounded like they had their mouths half a meter from the microphones. :\
I agree. It sounded much better in the music video :/
Крутые дядьки) До сих пор в форме, молодцы) Очень за них болела в 2011
Они даже в ноты не попадали
Я помню их слушал ещо в детстве и подроском и тепер слушаю👍жаль ани не выйграли евровидение
Вас как можно найти в соцсетях! Меня можно найти в одноклассниках Тахир Дюсибаев!буду рад вас там видет и по общатся на счеть этой группы🙏
Легендарная группа👍
I CANは曲自体が持つ意味も好きな上に、
blueがソロとコーラスを繰り返す構造が曲の意味を強めてる
ユーロビジョンでは全体的に声の音量が小さく、音が重なる時にさらに聴こえにくい問題があるが
彼らがこのステージでパフォーマンスすることに日本にいながら興奮した
彼らがコンテストの前に各メディアで披露したI CANを追ったのも素敵な思い出です
2022年現在も好きです
Its so underrated :/
They were brilliant. Dec 2022
They were robbed and shud have won
They got me screaming like a 12 year old. Blue's definitely still got it.
I still freaking love this.. when it represented I was so mad as there amazing and deserved more points
This is perfection.... honestly, all those guys voices together, makes PERFECTION!
One of the best entries from UK!
I think this didn't do as well as it should have because of all the negative criticism received before hand - people tend to start believing stuff after a while and because of the negative criticism, their mind creates an illusion making the song and performance seem terrible. But I strongly respect Blue, they did the United Kingdom proud, 100 points is something we rarely see - so thank you, Blue.
I'd like to give a shout out to Bulgaria who gave us 12 points. We humbly thank you - your song should have qualified but alas, this is no longer a song contest.
Thank God Poli returned. Na Inat was so much better than Italy and Azerbaijan
Do you understand the concept of hitting the right notes while singing? I guess not.

@@summertummer2394 actually, they did hit the notes. Check it with any music software. You seem to be just a hater, leaving replies at every good comment about this performance
I heard nothing bad beforehand, all were excited for that comeback in my country, but the song was not it.
11th place and the United kingdom are proud of this.
2011 was the best.
I always support Great Britain and I am glad that this year London is hosting Eurovision.
It's one of the best country of the world where I spent 5 years of my life
Adoro esta Canção! Só hoje (Terça-Feira, 16 de Agosto de 2022) já a ouvi perto de dez vezes! Afinal de contas, também não é para menos dado que os Blue são uma das melhores Boysband ou melhor dizendo, a melhor de todos os tempos. Parabéns pelas vossas Músicas.
The real Winner!
Great group, fantastic harmony. 2021
So this just popped up on my feed, after many years, it was such a bop.
Lee Ryan voice is amazing
amazingly terrible yes.
I hope it was a joke... his voice is terrible
only Antony Costa
was really good
@@user-kt9oy9ij4m You and your comment are terrible.
@@user-kt9oy9ij4m If only we could produce international singing sensations like you guys in Russia LMAO
Best performance of the night by a mile!!!
still jamming to this song!

🎶I can I will I know I can🎶
Was so proud that year!
Their mics were fucked but I'd still give 12 points from your neighbours Ireland:) catchy song
I'm from Turkey and I Can was my favourite this year. I sent 30 text messages for it and my country gave 6 points to the UK. I wish Blue had won. I was so sad at that night because they didn't deserve such a bad result. I want 100% televoting back because juries do nothing but pulling down my favourites every year. By the way, I think there's nothing wrong with their vocals.They can sing very well. Could it have been better? Maybe.. But we shouldn't compare live performances with studio records.
2023. Still melting with this perfirmance
Iubesc melodia și trupa Blue! Meritați mai mult!
For the Blue fans this was the best ESC moment ever...we'll never forget it...Blue are back to stay baby...!!! ;) ♥ Blue Fan For Live ♥
To everyone saying that they can't sing live, I recomend you to watch some other live performances by the boys,like Breathe Easy live from Wembley, or If You Come Back,All rise- live @HeartRadioMusic, and judge after. I'ts clear that apart from the possible mic problems, this performance was not a good one , but they have great voices!!!!!
I agree
lovyazid The main singer had flu.
I agree! 👏 Plus i think he sounded pretty damn good for someone with the flu!
lovyazid BLUE și WESTLIFE SUNT TRUPELE MELE FAVORITE DIN TOATE TIMPURILE!
lovyazid live-urile lor de pe marile arene sunt spectaculoase și memorabile . Ei și Westlife!
i love this song
Great Song 😘😘 They can sing and dance live. I love this Song❤, they are Winner from the Heart. Man have become.Duncan looks great😘.His looks great. His Looks and his Jump at the End i love it. The Voices of all 4 is great, especially in the high and low Notes from all 4.❤👍
wow - this was great, such good strong vocals and harmonies of their vocs.,😍💛💚💙💜🤎 the song charted No 8 in Austria, 7 in Germany, 8 Switzerland, 16 Uk and 17 Irland...
love this song... greets from Croatia!

I looove Blue, please come back to eurovision guys
This was amazing!!
One of d best songs from UK on eurovision
No words. Amazing and inspiring
And bad singing
Thx for videos!!!
Miss them so much !
Just goes to show if the UK put forward half decent acts we can do just fine in Eurovision.
Yes also Lucie in 2017
And Sam Ryder in 2022!
They are the winners😘
Still one of the very best and greatest performances in any act in the history of Eurovision.
Still listening.. 💙
I still say this should have won it had everything
It's such a shame that this song wasn't in the top 5
My favourite last year. Love them from Spain!
They are the best
Our 3rd best result post-2000, damn, at least it got 100 points, also shows if we actually try a little we can get a good result
Here just for Duncan James to be honest...fire man 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah...He is too hot to handle 🔥🔥 most beautiful man in the world 🌎🌎🌎❤❤❤❤😘😘
excellent music
i can
blue.. loveeeeeee
I....DAMN .. LOVE THEIR...HARMONIES🔥🔥🔥🔥 LOVE MY BLUE ❤... especially DUNCAN ❤❤😘❤🔥
Best UK internal selection for a long time
One of my favourite bands at my favourite thing in the world.They were brilliant!Unlucky not to win the whole contest in my opinion!
So fantastic 😍😍
ESC 2011 still my favourite Song Contest to this day in 2017
Stop Hating Blue..None of you haters could preform on Eurovision!
James Crampton-Thomas yeah we're not gonna get chosen
In all fairness...I know I couldn't perform on Eurovision, because I have such stage fright. :(
There is no hating here. Everyone is just commenting how bad the singing was.
THIS is a REAL "Boy Group"
Yes
Boy? They're MEN 😍
Always loved it and always will
I'm a huge Blue fan, I can remember watching Eurovision and suddenly they introduced Blue, I screamed. Told my dad to keep his mouth shut while Blue is on and make the tv louder XD
You know what they did amazing to be able to represent the UK they smashed it yes the sounding was bit low but they carried on an made it amazing still they deserved more definitely though at least people can see them for how amazing they are ....because they are and they can do anything!!
my favourite of 2011 :D
i love this song!
i LOVE the music!!! my favourite!
Lee Ryan and Simon Webbe voices seemed nervous. Antony didn't have much to offer. Moreover, the posters were also misplaced. Antony and Simon in the beginning were behind Duncan and Lee's posters and not theirs.
Duncan James was the only one who nailed this performance and you could clearly see he was enjoying himself.
Ive never really been a fan of Blue but after this song being more modern im really intrested to listen to theyre new album!
Thanku you videos 😍😍😍😍
This is going to be the greatest hit of 2011!!
I looooove it
Still listening..2016... i love this song so much💕💕 Greetings from Azerbaijan🇦🇿🔥❤️
Still listening in 2019. Blue rules! 😍
The greatest song from the UK since....I don't remember any other song from UK that was good in the past 15 years
2014?
+ZeroTimeLP [Geilo] Nah, Molly's song was weird. 2012 was good, though.
How can you have such a bad taste of music?
+ZeroTimeLP [Geilo] I personally liked 2006. But yeah, this is like your best song this century.
@@timt4mt0m 5 years later, I deeply respect Blue. The performance wasn't that great but the song and the band are. It's not my music taste though :)
This is my best Boyband. I soo remember their song If you come back and All Rise :)
iam still love this song!!!!
We didn't do too bad finishing 11th! I really enjoy the harmonies in the chorus here, but for some reason they're not on the recorded version.
11th was a great place and blue did a great job
Duncan James should more solo cuz he has great voice
When Blue started, Lee had by far the best voice and did most of the singing followed by Duncan. But yeah, Lee's voice has degenerated (he also had diarrhea at that time). Given that this song was so dependent on his singing, it's no surprise it collapsed.
I like this stage so much 😍😍😍
Amazing singers. Good job United Kingdom.
May 2019 anyone? I can 😉
June
July 2019! I can!
Keeeeen
Çocukluğumun yıldızları kazanmalıydı... 🇹🇷
Blue, I love you, you are great, you should have won!!! After all these these years, I just wanted you to know that.
Muy buen grupo británico, Blue. From Spain.
