UK won't win but Olly might avoid bottom 5 i think
its between Israel, Poland, Albania for the win i think, all in english what everyone can understand, very commercially appealing songs with huge billboard chart potential, very modern entries too

i hope Niamh, Cherie are happy with Ireland's choice
unlike the UK, it is a very risky, alternative, artsy entry choice, bit similar to Melanie Martinez maybe, also bit similar to Konstrakta's quirkiness, in terms of song, i don't understand much of it, but tbh i just pretend it has irish celtic ethno vibes and sound wise we all know RTE are kinda rubbish with their late late show studio quality

Olly has millions of fans across the world and media outlets
That may have some bearing on the voting ?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Well he’s got 760,000 followers on Instagram alone plus around 680,000 instagram followers for the group Years & Years soooo - loads of those will be the same but certainly not all …then there’s the people who follow him as an actor or ‘spokesman’ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Last edited by Zizu; 26-03-2024 at 04:49 PM. |

…for me, I hope that any voting isn’t follower/fan based but judged on the entry alone …as that for me would be no different from being ‘politically’ influenced…and with other countries, it’s not something I would like to see as a big or significant voting influencer, that voting was in any way based on a performer fan base…Olly has a good song, he has a great stage presence and a great style….and staging and styling are probably as important as the song choice, itself….other than our own UK song, my first experience of Eurovision songs is in the contest itself because without the staging and the styling and the on night performance …?…I feel that it’s really only getting part of an entry…of course, an important part…. but it can still all change on the night with songs that I might have dismissed as being less favourite…but the whole complete performance has left a huge lasting impact more than other performances that I felt more hopeful for on being familiar with the song alone….Olly has so much potential to be the full Eurovision performance in every way and I’m rooting for him, totally……

That's not true.
Years & Years in particular were a really popular group at one time.

He’s got quite a wide selection of fans / followers The group Years & Years , his subsequent and blossoming solo career, his acting career plus his involvement in the LGBT+ cause .. and he has also spoken openly about his own struggles with depression, self-harm, eating disorders and anxiety from age 13 onwards until now at 33 !! He’s just a really a really kind and considerate guy who’s had tremendous successes tainted with a troubled last 20 years .. His parents split when he was 13 years old and after that his mother raised him primarily as a single mother as his father couldn’t accept that his son was never gonna be a typical ‘lad’ and bullied and abused him relentlessly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Last edited by Zizu; 27-03-2024 at 09:27 AM. |

They had success across Europe. Olly still records as Years and Years but his last release Night Call album was his own solo work and made number one in the album charts. With the single Sweet Talker being a modest entry on the UK charts too. That was in 2022. Until this song Dizzy, he hasn't released anything since then. He has a hard core of fans who have stayed loyal. Because of his personality and stage presence as he really involves the audiences he performs to.. I see nothing offensive about Olly myself and would number myself as a fan of him. Plus I've always loved the song King. Again I say good luck to him, obviously those of us in the UK cannot vote for him but I'll support him all the way definitely. Last edited by joeysteele; 27-03-2024 at 09:31 AM. |

Zizu camne back tt say he has well under a million followers on X even if all were genuine people (utterly fanciful) its way way off Zizu's claim No one claimed he does not have a fanbase - apart from you |

He’s on loads of different platforms though .. I illustrated two sites with roughly 2/3 million on way one ! There are countless other platforms that he’s a prominent contributor on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Hopefully he does well for us, I am nervous about the song if I'm being honest, but I do like Olly, so hopefully he can pull it off at the final.

Well tbf 600-700,000 followers on Instagram alone, probably means he at least has one million people that like him when you add in other Social Media platforms, Forums, and the general public into the equation.
