That's not true.

Years & Years in particular were a really popular group at one time.

I know of quite a few fans of Olly from It's A Sin alone, let alone fans of his Music.

I get that you may not personally like him, but he definitely has a fanbase.

They were indeed and still are.
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.

I like King as well Joey, also Shine and Desire too.

I haven't really heard too much of his solo stuff tbh.
