Electro Velvet - Still In Love With You (United Kingdom) 2015 Eurovision Song Contest

[@molly8071]

Coming back several years later to say this is still one of my favourite eurovision entries of all time. I remember thinking "the UK really had a chance this year!" And then being personally offended by how badly it did. We was robbed! This song is amazing and remains on my playlist forever

[@lugasc]

I am Spanish and I completely agree with you. It's so fun and catchy! I still come back here after so many years to listen to it 😂

[@wingedyera]

I, as a Dutchy, also thought it was criminal how low this one scored

[@1983noddy]

I personally think this is the best UK entry for a long time. It's catchy and different. Didn't deserve to be near the bottom.

[@1983noddy]

***** indeed. It would be the same, even if someone like Adele represented us.

[@Daggeron67]

+Chris Eades I do agree, I really like the song, however the only reason I think it was dumped is because of its life performance.

[@JackPicko91]

+Chris Eades i would agree, but when it was live it did sound rather bad.

[@mrTROLLERchannel]

+Chris Eades if live was as good as this then yea i would agree

[@lilmaibe]

+mrTROLLERchannel Exactly this. The performance was a disaster from start to finish. They even broke basic rules like, if you have any instrument in your song that's highly noticeable (the violin in this case) you should have it one stage with you.

[@52silgaN]

Europe this is sooo amazing! My 2nd favorite so far, 10 points from Lithuania

[@JEMTenor]

Lietuva is a clear winner for me! However, 'learning Lithuanian' might mean I have some bias on top of an already great song. I think this is a good uptempo song in a year of ballads so it's not the worst. 12 points to Lietuva from the UK!

[@52silgaN]

***** Thank you sooo much!

[@ivan6201]

***** I agree

[@ethangentles]

THANKS at least we will maybe get some voted

[@ivan6201]

100%

Thanks to this song, I fell in love with Electro Swing genre.

[@deskseven]

electro swing is great

[@davehilton1613]

And as a by-product, I fell in love with Caro Emerald

[@SILVYSPARK]

4,713 dislikes for a song with style, catchy lyrics and a fun mood to it?

[@escfan687]

Mostly Brits who disliked it.

[@yomanforli]

ESC Fan Trust me it really isn't

[@SILVYSPARK]

I've seen people say how Britain produces a lot of musical talent but a lot of entries in Eurovision aren't the best. I think people need to remember that up until 2009 the UK hardly took the contest seriously. Plus when a song enters Eurovision the rights and profits the song makes after entering goes to the Eurovision organization.

[@escfan687]

SilverSpark Rants I see what you mean but there have been some decent songs/singers ruined by something. 2000: Decent song imo 2001: Decent song ruined by outfits 2002: Fantastic 2003: Average song ruined by the performance 2004: I liked it 2005: Exactly the same style as Greece's imo perhaps Greeces was better. Javine is a good singer. 2006: Rap isn't the style for Eurovision. 2007: The year when it was obvious we were taking the piss. 2008: Should have been top 15, ruined by having to perform 2nd. 2009: Fantastic 2010: Good singer, terrible song. 2011: Juries screwed it up. 2012: Beautiful song, had to perform first though. 2013: Average ballad imo, but performed by a great singer (but of the past). 2014: Should have been left side of board, ruined by performing last (where most people had already decided their favourites).

[@isobelroberts5684]

SilverSpark Rants Up until 2000 we didn't do too badly apart from a few off years. After that, we've gone downhill almost every year

[@simon19661000]

This song is a mix of... simply everthing... I was shocked while I heard it the first time. But its not bad, I was only surprised. It is a very special song, there is no song like this. But I dont know whether everybody likes it. I do :) Greeting from Germany ;)

[@simon19661000]

Simon Baumann Simply crazy.

[@thespykernaf]

Simon Baumann You should check out Caro Emerald. She's a Dutch artist in the Jazz, pop and electro swing genres and she was also the favorite artist from the woman who performed this song!

[@euronick61]

rob heijkant I love Caro Emerald

[@Sandra-dj8kq]

Simon Baumann I like this song too

[@ivanhenderson31]

I honestly love this song to death, but funny thing is I am in America, and no, I would never dream of being from America. I love this song because it brings back the originality and class of the 1900's that I, in person, enjoy. Instead of God awful "twerking", you have a good "jazzy" song that has a great idea, without the awful atrocities of modern day skimpyness and perversiveness (if that is a word). I am also not fond of alot of American hip-hop, so I hope no one hates me for even putting in my useless opinion. But in a whole, this song puts me in a great mood, and I think because of the little details to 1900's "fashion dancing" with the jazz hands and finger wiggle (correct me if for improper terminology) that really makes me smile when I hear it! Thanks!

[@sue_busted1116]

This is the first UK entry I've liked in years. It's catchy and memorable. I'm fed up with ballads - time for something a little bit different.

[@BrennanWiner]

Uh, have you heard the Netherlands' entry? How about Slovenia's? Have you even heard all of the other entries yet?

[@samwhitley88]

Brennan Winer I have and they're all pretty much all of the typical "eurovision" songs... This is completely different to ANYTHING Europe has sent sent before

[@BrennanWiner]

This reminds me of Scooch I don't know

[@BrennanWiner]

Scooch is bad? This is bad? Maraaya is bad? I'm confused

[@BrennanWiner]

It's no use supporting your own country anyways Most of you all are British, I'm assuming

[@esclovisa]

Soo underrated, soo amazing. My runner-up in 2015, only behind Georgia!

[@jackodonovan6536]

Listening to this over and over has made me realise that this has a very strong chance of winning. All of the UK's winning songs have been a bit bonkers. I like that it's something thats not been done in Eurovision before. It's not like all the mainstream Eurovision songs you see

[@charlieharrison8511]

I highly doubt we will win but with good staging and vocals on the night and jury rehearsal possibly top 10. Hasn't really been any stand out songs this year so you never know though.

[@jackodonovan6536]

Charlie Harrison It will score very high and probably won't win, but you never know what will happen

[@conorwells9129]

This could be good!

[@ErvinZarka]

I wish i could bet u that this song will be disqualified at the 1st night...if UK is not that "superpower" of Eurosong.

[@magnuskrane7310]

tbh, this is the sound of a classic eurovision. (Y) thumbs up!

[@charleyscott3818]

I don't understand how people dislike this song, it's bloody brilliant.

[@Dim4323]

No clue

[@Alex4u]

this is addictive. it could turn out as a surprise in the final and get a great result. depends on the live performance and running order

[@PhysalisFranchetti]

Running order, of course, being decided by the organisers, which is presumably determined by how well they think a song is going to do. Live performance?

[@Alex4u]

PhysalisFranchetti It depends. first there is a draw about which part of the show each entry will be performed (first half/second half) and then the organisers will decide about the running order. I remember a few years ago the show was getting boring because there were many ballads in the first half or vice versa so the organisers will make sure that each song will shine and not be overshadowed by others.

[@PhysalisFranchetti]

Alex4u Running order: Generally, 2nd half is better than the first half. 1st half after the first few slots (which are really bad) it doesn't much matter where you go in the running order. 2nd half gives a big advantage for anyone going around slot 19, and there is a big disadvantage for anyone going in the last few slots of the night. I am ashamed to say we plotted this, initially fitting a straight line, and later using curves :-( I still think that the organisers put the favoured songs around about slot 19, if they are drawn in the second half. The performance is more of a question to me. I had a look at his performances in the Rolling Clones, which I think he has been doing for quite a few years, so I don't think he''ll get stage fright, so competent. She is a really lovely singer, but there aren't many clips on YT of her.

[@Alex4u]

PhysalisFranchetti i ve seen many experienced artists losing it on Eurovision stage because it's the feeling of representing a whole nation and having a huge audience watching you so we'll see. The Netherlands performed in the 24th spot and they came 2nd. So, i think you can't really tell...

[@leoazevedoaaa]

This music is pretty nice and funny, could make easily the top 10, but if is the UK, I can guess maybe a 15th place?! (Is a good position btw :D)

[@ZeitgeistKP]

I loooove it. It was one of the best performances at the Eurovision Song Contest. Greetings from Turkey !

[@ZeitgeistKP]

...... by the way ... they remind me of THE B 52's!!!

[@equestriangirly2296]

Zeitgeist.KP Yeah, except The B-52's actually can make catchy music. Rock Lobster. Private Idaho, Love Shack etc.

[@minilord2012]

Well, i like the Studio Version and the music Video, but in my Opinion was their Performance on of the worst of the eurovision song contest They sang it badly, sadly

[@spartan_jackttv1867]

This is honestly growing on me so quick! Not only is it a happy and uplifting song but it's so damn catchy! The tune gets so stuck in your mind it's practically unforgettable and with the right staging will deffo impress the public! A smart move BBC!

[@salfordlgbtq2413]

It's about time we recognised that we'll never win the contest and started to have some fun with it! It's a yes from me!

[@MmeKastaffiore]

Why not? Austria had won only once in 1966 and they hardly made the top 10 since then. But they won last year, anyway.

[@salfordlgbtq2413]

MmeKastaffiore As opposed to previous years where they've sent a song that they really believe sounds professional and sophisticated enough to win, leading to us all to be disappointed, they've opted for a song which we can enjoy listening to, and know with confidence that we probably won't win.

[@bakyaan]

From Spain: please, stop, that's a big mistake. Look at us. 2008, Chikilicuatre. One of the most humiliating moments in our history. Funny? Yeah, but...

[@AngelBeeps]

Totally agree. Also the music in this sounds like it's from a Super Mario game which I can totally get behind. :p

[@sifw5462]

***** You can't compare! Very catchy song from the UK well done. Much better then some of the boring songs this year. This will stand out for sure.

[@samwhitley88]

Probably the most opinion dividing song in Eurovision history! Well Done Electric Velvet! ;)

[@mattcoe5195]

Totally agree! The fact that it has divided opinion and is controversial will be the catalyst for its popularity and success!

[@anthonylovesjapan3281]

Matt Coe I agree! Just like Conchita last year, we will be the talk of the year (unless another song gets announced that trumps us, which is pretty likely seeing as lots of the big players haven't released theirs yet xD)

[@blueoranges14]

It totally is. I hope Europe will love it. But we have to see what the entrants are like Sweden who are usually really good.

[@NymeriaMeliae]

For at least the last 10 years this is the best entry the UK have produced during that time. I don't think it is a winner but it should perform better than our last 10 entries. This far, I quite like Estonia's entry

[@vividBloodsucker]

Wow, someone with common sense in the comments! Yeah, this is one of the best entries of the last decade, and that is saying A LOT, it's not a terrible pop song that's obnoxious with no heart for starters

[@harrydaly2678]

Vivian Sutton I think it's because this isn't the type of music us Brits listen to...

[@rorrt]

Next to Jade Ewen, i would agree. It pisses me off that all the other countries they tour and tour their countries songs around Europe, and they end up in those countries charts, so thats perhaps a huge reason for the perceived "bloc voting", which is something i don't think really exists. When Ewen sang with Andrew L. Webber, we did fantastically! Because we treated it seriously. NEXT YEAR! Josh Bouvey... A joke... We came last... This always happens. But i quite like this song.

[@njerzynek]

I like estonia's entry (a cord sounmds like something from the 90's though,) switzerland and netherlands are also good, 1 of the 2 warrior songs gets in your head but the way you said it is wierd, the german entry quit-not estonia, lol

[@lucymunroxx]

I liked Blue tbh

[@Asianboifun]

So here’s the thing…this song is addictive! After listening to it on repeat I’m still in love with it! Yes, it’s fun, catchy, charming, different and it stands out from the rest. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea but at least it’s sweet, refreshing, memorable and entertaining. That’s what Eurovision is all about…not really about winning. People need to chill out, have some fun and dance for heaven’s sake! I think it’s this year’s version of Conchita’s beard in terms of uniqueness. I hope Electro Velvet will do well during tonight’s live performance. Best of luck from The Netherlands! All my votes for UK! Btw I’ll tell my friends to vote for you guys too ;D

[@naomimowatt1612]

I can't understand why everyone is being so negative about this. I think it's brilliant, it's fun, it's upbeat, it's catchy, it's stylish, i don't see much wrong with it. Maybe instead of the same generic ballad we bring in every year, we needed something different, something to stand out and have fun with. I personally love the way it mixes vintage and modern styles, and it's something that people can enjoy, not use as a break to go to the loo or get some coffee. We won't win, don't get me wrong, but this might be one of the few times we can leave with some dignity!

[@theboss777man]

Well don't know why everybody is complaining.. This song is nice and catchy it will definately do well in vienna. 10 points from Germany to our british friends

Well, I'm from the UK and I'm actually quite happy that these guys will be representing us. Eurovision 2015 was starting to become a snoozefest with so many ballads and generic crap but FINALLY we start the party with a bit of upbeat fun!

[@vividBloodsucker]

We've always been upbeat with our entries, everyone's just trying to be the new Conchita this year. The main difference with our entry this year is it's not a steaming pile of obnoxous crap like the last decade's worth of entries and is something with actual thought and heart put into it

[@sushigirl1069]

Vivian Sutton Though Conchita's /Austria's entry for 2014 was good, it was not totally original. Very Bondesque influence for sure!! British influence you could say, also! Germany had an entry (that won) Lena, she was definitely influenced by either LIly Allen or Sophie Ellis Bextor. You see!!!!, British music has a strong influence across Europe. ;)

Fantastic!! Something so different for the UK! Bring it on!!

[@TheLynvild]

I am from the UK and have been watching ESC for many, many years - more in fact, than the average age of most 'fans'. The derogatory comments this song has received from many UK fans has been disgusting. Granted. we are all entitled to our opinion but sadly, most of these people would doubtless provide rude, nasty and negative comments regardless of the song/singer that was representing us, because every year the UK song seems to attract the pathetic vitriol of the 'haters'. I find it so tiresome that many people do not appear to understand that music is totally subjective and that you cannot please all of the people all of the time. There are many songs that chart at #1 both here and in the US that I personally wouldn't give air time to, but I don't tear them, or the singers to pieces. There are also a number of songs in this year's contest that I personally do not like but I am not going to drone on about them as others will like them. The UK song is a happy, catchy song, sung by a couple who genuinely look like they are enjoying themselves - which always goes down well at ESC. If it was sung by the likes of Olly Murs it would be top 5 in the charts without question. I sincerely hope we do mange the left hand side of the scoreboard this year but if we don't, so be it. Also, if we come last, so be it - it is expected nowadays anyway!! I am quite sure EV will give it everything they have and do their best, which at the end of the day, is all we can ask.

[@PhysalisFranchetti]

It's a brick wall, and a different time. The social rules have changed; it is acceptable just to have an opinion now and post it (actually I think it is required), without worrying whether or not it is worthwhile saying it, or whether or not you offend anyone while doing so. I very much agree with your sentiments about this song - I love it

[@Livevil9912]

TheLynvild This might be my fave commment on this video, its hilarious. Get over yourself.

[@BethnalJ]

Livevil9912 Personally I appreciated the poster's comments - perhaps you should get over yourself. His comments are positive and supportive and you should at least respect that. I don't care if you like the song or not and as for it being okay for people to post whatever they like well I am all for free speech, but people use the free speech to say just any old crap without adding anything to the argument - debate all you want but to just dismiss something is not debating an issue and just makes people look like fools and intolerant idiots...

[@BLXNKE]

Please may I get a chance to explain why the UK has decided for this type of music? Well, this type of music has recently become very popular within Europe. And being honest, people from the UK don't really care about Eurovision, we find it fun to watch and do, we don't really take it seriously. Yes, we may act like it's a joke, because honestly, what's is so fun about taking everything seriously?

[@Kingfordian22]

Where's your evidence that this style of music has recently become very popular in Europe? Is it plucked out of the same PR bin that told us that Bonnie Tyler and Englebert Humperdinck were still very popular in Europe?

[@BLXNKE]

***** Please go watch the interview of these two because it explains a lot, and I myself do not really listen to this music so I personally cannot give you a lot of information about this type. ^-^

[@Kingfordian22]

Sacred Wolf Interestingly enough a quick google search of the genre and its popularity in Europe does indeed confirm it is popular right now. Perhaps BBC are onto something here. Very interesting. I'm still not sure about this particular song, After viewing some other songs in the same genre, I'm not sure if this is the best reflection of the genre but knowing what I know now it could get a bit higher than I intially thought. But the jury's still out on this one for me. It might grow on me we'll have to wait and see.

[@BLXNKE]

***** At first I didn't like it myself, but it does grow on you. ^-^

[@Kingfordian22]

Sacred Wolf The only problem is that Eurovision is the one place where having a song that grows on you is a bad thing. Most people will hear the song for the first time on the night and unlike those who qualify from the semi finals.... it will be the only time they will perform it before the voting. It needs instant appeal to become a winner.

[@georgefrost5558]

Good Luck to the 'mother country' from Australia. Good song. Nice and bubbly. Very different to a lot of the other serious songs.

Exactly, what is wrong with us, GET BEHIND YOUR NATION! I said it once and i'll say it again...its daring, its risky, but its divisive opinion will be the catalyst for its success for sure!

[@dariodipietropaolo3557]

Matt Coe Mr. Coe, you can't "get behind your nation" if your nation is doing crap. Unfortunately the "get behind your nation and neighbours" philosophy is the ruin of ESC. It's no longer a contest for songs but for countries.

[@mattcoe5195]

Dario Di Pietropaolo I don't think you can honestly label Eurovision as a competition not about the songs, there have been some tremendous songs over the recent years, such as Loreen's 'Euphora', Lena's 'Satellite', De Forests 'Only Teardrops'...to name a few. These were deserving songs that deserved to be given the acclimation of the European title and won convincingly because of this. Of course there will always be an element of the same old predictable voting such as greece/cyprus etc, but in grand scheme of things, the best song in the competition will win the competition. In the case of ;last years entry however that is where my opinion differs, because it certainly wasnt the strongest song or the most memorable, but of course what people do remember is a bearded man in a dress...and frankly, people voted more for the personality/visuals than they did the song. But that is only my opinion, not everyone will share that. She did have an incredible voice! In regards to the UK, yes we have sent some stinkers over the years, the years between 2003-2008 were probably the dark years as far as we were concerned, and Josh's effort in 2010 was the pits......but the past few years we have sent genuine efforts, and it is a testimony of the UK wanting to get back in the game in eurovision. Granted it won't happen overnight, but we have to allow europe to latitude to help us back in. We took the piss of the competition and thought we were too big for our boots after the 90's, thought we were way too good for such a competition and we should just have a laugh and sneer at it on a whim, because we thought that we could send an old tat and we could win easily. Last year proved it won't be that so easy, but hey, i'll support my nation! We have sent a strong catchy song full of bouncy beats and fun/uplifting jingles with a brilliantly choreographed video to boot. It deserves our support and look at how favorable it has become with Europe already?!

[@paul-hutt.3686]

I still love this song.

[@natasawagner8386]

for me, this is the best song from Uk last 15 yrs

[@Savalan91]

Some of you didn't like it, i have got no idea, But this one for sure WONDERFUL!!! Best of Luck - Greetings from Azerbaijan! :)

[@privatepilotuk]

For the first time in years, we have actually selected a decent entry for UK

[@croatianwizard3128]

No,u didn't.This is awful

[@rnm1011]

Up yours Vinko Matić.

[@ukfor911truth3]

I agree David its a brilliant song

[@divoid8047]

Agree David. I like! ☺

[@SilverStrumer]

David Williams With a really good staging it might do well! Song is not even boring like the Hump & Tyler's or bland-repetitive trash like Scooh & Jemini.

[@manuelgalego618]

*Says: Approved! Good composition! Super funny! Super catchy! Charismatic singer! Top 10 in the final.* _Best wishes from Vienna._

[@markush6048]

I can't stop listening to this song. I just love it. :) Greetings from Germany.

[@marianrodriguez8547]

My favourite this year! ... Well done from Spain

[@adriciscute3]

I'm a fan of electro swing so this is right up my ally, but everyone has different tastes in music.

[@olican101]

This isn't electro swing. It's a terrible attempt at a parody of electro swing.

[@adriciscute3]

***** I believe that F.U.N is an awful attempt at indie rock/pop yet it still falls into the genre. The genre is very wide and dispersed, some are heavier and some are lighter in their influences in Swing or Electro, this in my opinion is a good mix of both but what brings it down is the lyrics.

[@TheMrMe1]

***** I agree, the lyrics aren't strong. In fact, it'd do better without them. I still enjoy this, though.

[@Dangergay2410]

The Black Phoenix I think they could've revised the "sneezes and diseases" line. Sounds a bit too... venereal. I love the song though. ^^

[@kateemma22]

Callum Johnston It's electro-swing music with your mum harping about wearing a jumper as lyrics. Definitely could have done better without them.

[@icyspicy11]

This song reminds me of toy story for some reason lol

[@dannya6825]

In what way?

[@icyspicy11]

Danny Atkins if you have watched toy story, you would know.

[@dannya6825]

I have watched it. It definitely sounds quirky like Toy Story.

[@michealbarone]

Good song from United kingdom don't you think !!!!! I'm still in love with you

[@GeorgeHowardBass1]

klara jonsdottir I think it's the piano in the background you can hear, it's hard to describe

[@TmGino]

One of the best songs of the evening! ^^ Regards from Germany ;)

[@barbaracovell]

Gino thanks germany

[@bendavis1102]

Gino Danke Germany, I really liked your song and I voted for it, too bad others didn't

[@stupidflounders]

I'm from the UK, and I voted for Germany's song! Sorry you didn't do better, she definitely deserved to.

[@babybooma49]

stupidflounders I too voted for Germany from the UK. I just love her song and I think it should have got in the top three. Maybe it's because I am half German but it really appeals to me.

[@jasmineatkins9554]

I loved Germany's song, I thought it was one of the best!

[@janhilpar122]

It's a very first time after 1967 when UK's song in my Top3!

[@93maija]

I kinda love this song. It makes me happy. 10 points from Norway!

[@johnpfw]

Am I the only person thinking this is brilliant and would be a worthy winner? Douze Points from the Irish in Southern California.

[@pistachiomustachio2311]

This, Albania and Switzerland are the only songs from 2015 I revisit all the time :o

[@noefable]

I honestly don't know why everybody dislikes this song. Have you listened to the songs that have been selected so far? They're all rubbish. And among all that rubbish, I think this song is the best until now. Thanks to the BBC for not sending another boring ballad like everyone else. Greetings from Spain :)

[@BoyJazz]

I love this song ... UK ... you have my vote !

[@SuperDocctor]

Your voice for UK is nothing!

[@mattcoe5195]

You share my voice Nick, good on you!

[@SuperDocctor]

Matt Coe But it so little

[@SuperDocctor]

Matt Coe You is voiting , but Victory goes to singers of Estern Europe

[@annalarke]

Super proud of my brother and Bianca x

[@DJADAMSOFFICIAL]

anna larke anna I think this song might surprise us all its different at least

[@AlexMoby]

anna larke Good Luck to your brother and Bianca then. It's certainly one of the best British entries from the last years.

[@simonhylands5489]

I think we're in contention, this is quirky and different. It'll certainly stand out amidst a massive amount of ballads on offer this year. Good luck to Alex & Bianca :)

[@melvynnicholas2478]

Me to super proud of my little sister and Alex 👍

[@annalarke]

melvyn nicholas great isn't it :)))) x

[@kaara5878]

This song is waaaaaaaaaaaay underrated

[@MrLeo1357]

I love it. Best song this year so far... Good luck UK in Vienna, 12 points from Germany :-)

[@Tiroooooler]

12 points from Austria!!! Good luck UK!!!

[@andreastraxler8185]

Tiroooooler yes, so funny and catchy ... just calm down dear friends in the uk, this will be far above the many boring songs this year! we will definitely like it here in vienna :-))

[@blueoranges14]

Thanks. :) I hope people for this song, all we want in the UK is to make it on to the left hand of the leaderboard lol.

[@Tiroooooler]

Yes, I cross my fingers too for the UK! But one important big thing is the boot sequence! Pleace don´t start as 1st or as last entry like you do often, dear UK! Just perform this song after some boring ballades in the middle of the contest and you will have good scores in the end! ;) Happy to welcome you all in Vienna, Austria!!!! :)

It's strange, but i'm so in love with this song! And the lady is very adorable ;) 10 points from Russia.

[@willdingwall8503]

how can so many people not like this song?, its so catchy and has a light, fun mood

[@skiesareblackandblue6468]

This song is so amazing, I'm really addicted to it. I'm sure I'm going to vote for this song, 12 points from The Netherlands! Goodluck Electro Velvet :D

[@alliancesuxftw]

I could see myself voting for this, it's rather unique. Greetings from Sweden :)

[@BearneeveFTL]

This video is just PERFECT for this song!

[@davehilton1613]

Still listening 7 years later in the lead up to Eurovision 2022. Brilliantly written funny song. Why didn't people get the humor?

[@hws3886]

It's good

[@JorritMillenaar]

I don't get why people don't like this song I love it! The song was funny (in a good way). If the live performance is good I will vote fore it! Greets from The Netherlands

[@100twistthethird7]

So did you?

[@sifw5462]

Love it! Great song catchy and fun, great video. Jesus the UK can't win everyone bashing it. Its the Eurovision this is catchy tune that I have no doubt will do well and look great on the live show. Lots better then many entries. 12 points from Sweden!!!

[@raenej4634]

We finally have something to dance to this year! So I'm happy.

[@mjudec]

This is the UK's best entry for at least 10 years. It's very catchy. It'll win absolutely nothing, but it's pretty enjoyable.

[@roblox_wolfie3892]

Hi i bet you forgot about this comment

[@mjudec]

@@roblox_wolfie3892 Hi. I had. I was right though...

[@roblox_wolfie3892]

[@crossingfrederic]

This sounds and looks very fun ! I know A LOT OF BRITISH FANS won't be very nice about it first, but it' really isn't bad at all. If the duo manages to recreate the fun atmosphere of the video on stage, it might not crash as badly as people would expect at first hand. Trust me, this entry is a good one, especially in a year like 2015.

[@SimHarrison]

what's with all the dislikes?? this is awesome! I just wish they'd get rid of the electronic segments.

[@tomino1374]

This deserved more than 5 points

i am a huge fan of that retro style, so this song has completely won me over. wish you the best of luck!!

[@alloraclara]

UK, are you trying to bring back 2003 with this one? I just hope the live performance isn't so bad, otherwise, this is totally Eurovision 2003 for them all over again!

[@ParalimniVoice]

The 2003 one is EVEN better.

[@vwnportsmouth2595]

ParalimniVoice Erm, In what way? The United Kingdom did not get a single point then. The contest is in May. Don't get over-excited.

[@JackGamer193]

AH YOU MADE ME GOOGLE IT, WTF IT'S SO BAD!

absolutely nothing like it, why make me Google that garbage :-/

No Mandy listen to the 2003 it's awful :-)

I know, that many people in the UK don't like this song, but many people in Europe like it an I looooove this song!!!!

Daniel Channel it is got number 1 views because Brits love to criticise :)

[@RogerRoger182]

TeamUK_Eurovision Haha. Than the Brits have a lot of common with the Dutch;) Complaining is pretty much a way of life for us (myself included). Last year half of the national audience hated our entry - second place:p

[@MrSimmy92]

But I have think we have more reasons to complain..we send in a good song (last year) 17th....we send this (which i do like) and we will finish bottom half..whatever we do we cant do well!

[@BlairWoldorf645]

Daniel Channel russia is top 1..... but ESC2016 will be in Rome =))))

I love this song so much. I'm actually chocked over the negativity in the comments. I love electroswing and this is so catchy.

[@LilAlia7]

You know what? I really do like this song! Not another crappy ballad, it's something new, catchy... just fun! :) The older rhythm gives a nice opportunity for those dancing swing too :) I thought I'd find a lot of comments saying how nice it is. I can't believe so many ppl disliked it...
