Feeling rather WISTFUL remembering the glory of Mae Miller - Instead I Ate Some Monge (sp?) today

Playing Boggle and Monge was NOT A WORD.

FUMING

The Scum is reporting that the planned ESC act has been dropped due to past online comments and that it has nothing to do with the Middle East. Now the BBC has found a replacement during this week.

[GNL]

Twist, they actually went back and edited slurs into all of their old posts to get out of it

 

[VoR]

The BBC to Electro Velvet:

 

[Penelope]

Just snorked at the latest rumour amongst gays that MICHELLE VISAGE is our entry this year

 

[PopLife]

Now streets are saying that Freya Skye (who did jESC 4 years ago with "Lose My Head") is the entrant. She's 16 now and is making a career in US on Disney Channel right now.

 

[Soldi]

If it’s as good as Lose My Head I’d be fine with that.

 

[Lucille]

Can we just send Lose My Head again?

 

[Agneeta]

I've listened to a couple of her songs and I absolutely hated them.

 

[Pingu]

I think the Freya Skye thing is the usual “she brought out an EP a few days ago with some 3 minute songs on it so it must be her” speculation.

 

[ButterTart]

I've listened to a couple of her songs and I absolutely hated them.

They're very generic Heart FM bopz. They all sounded like radio fodder and I can't see how any of them would translate to a live performance.

Beyond that, she seems to be doing pretty well in America as it is so I don't see why she'd bother.

 

[rhythmbandit]

Obviously bollocks but the amount of comments who think she would do it is astonishing.

 

[VoR]

I mean… does she have much else going on?

 

[Kala]

The rumour for Loren has come from the fact that her manager is one of the team responsible for picking the UK act.

I don’t think it’s Freya. She has a recording contract with Disney (Hollywood Records), though her EP is out on vinyl on 15th May, the Day before the Eurovision final. This is the rumoured song, which is very nice in a Sabrina Carpenter-lite way.

 

[Agneeta]

Sabrina Carpenter lite is my stuff of nightmares.

 

[Lucille]

Wrong thread!

 

[Nancy]

I hope it is Michelle Visage

 

[Halli]

I've heard much much worse ideas than Michelle Visage

 

[straightorbroken]

Let her be as good as her Vogue.

 

[Halli]

I enjoyed her Stepping into LSL live on Graham Norton for Steps very much for the noted track.

 

[RobBot]

Silent Treatment is already top 20 on US Pop Radio, play listed on Capital etc.

I think there’s next to no chance that something with that kind of backing is also our Eurovision entry. Just an easy guess to grab onto because of her previous ties to JESC is all I can see it being.

 

[Finn]

I've heard much much worse ideas than Michelle Visage

And yet it's still a terrible idea

 

[Soldi]

They’re DESCRIBING the song on Radio 2

 

[Soldi]

Oh

 

[Madison]

The artist is called “LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER”.

 

[Soldi]

Scott said the song sounds like a mix of Blur, Pet Shop Boys and Verka Seduchka, among others, and that it was ‘anthemic’. Sounds like a racket.

 

[Madison]

“I want you to imagine a bit of Basshunter Now You’re Gone, and then put a bit of Parklive Blur in there, and then maybe you would add in a bit of West End Girls Pet Shop Boys, maybe the synths of the Human League. Sprinkle a bit of Verka Seduchka in there. Maybe just a tiny bit of Sex Pistols. Stick all that in a blender and create a big anthem to take on Eurovision. One that I can imagine they will be singing in that arena.”
[…]
“It’s very British […] Yes there are synths […] But it’s also got that massive song-a-long moment.”

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Can't be any worse than Remember Monday

 

[GNL]

Having just given a little listen to his TOP HITS on Spotify, he's not bad, and is bringing a very specific 'music you'd hear while shopping for lurid neon skinny jeans at Topman' energy.

 

[Tisch]

Described to me by @Iguana just now as "someone's who's our age who's a Eurovision fan"

 

[ButterTart]

His songs on Spotify are right up my street, I’m just worried we’re jumping on the Cha Cha Cha MAD LADZ trend a year after it died.

 

[GNL]

Behold the wretch - the miserable monster he has created.

 

[Finn]

He has the vibe of a friendly person I'd work very hard not to make eye contact with on public transport

 

[rhythmbandit]

Behold the wretch - the miserable monster he has created.

Here's hoping things have improved since 2018.

 

[WiDGe->]

The artist is called “LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER”.

My Synth Dad discord sprang into life with this.

I think I had that jacket in 1981.

He has the energy of a UK Drag Race contestant.

Never seen him and Kate Butch in the same place.
