Nice enough and all but too old-fashioned. Can't see it clicking with Europe.

I think this could finish midtable since it's lovely, but it won't stand out I don't think.

In comparison to some of the dreadful, archaic twaddle that Europe dish up it's a winner. There are some Eastern Bloc countries who are still digging those crazy Beach Boys. This is okay by Eurovision standards... It's even got a key change! And of course, the best thing about Englebert is... he isn't Jedward.

I could have seen this easily as a top 5 finish in the 80s heck even 90's, but I think he'll finish middle of the table, nice enough song.

I actually hope Ireland finish above the UK again, not only for the funny and in some cases bitter responses but for the fact Eurovision is supposed to be a laugh if you take away countries block voting etc!:joker:

You can't vote for him anyway, so all is forgiven :tongue:

I have a feeling and have had since it was announced that he was representing the UK, he is likely to do well,I can see him finishing in the top 5 with this one somehow.He will stand out for obvious reasons and that can help not hinder.
The song is nowhere near as good as Jedwards for Ireland but I can see both of them scoring very highly this time round.

It could be a very good contest indeed this year for both Ireland and the UK.

But seriously, I can see us doing well. Some will be like 'wtf is his name I'm deffinitely voting for that'' and then some countries will be fans of his
