massive in terms of UK Eurovision entries, not up there with Gina G yet, but there's still time

Sam was great on the NYE show, he’s really been the man of the year here, you can hardly imagine there ever being a new year party with Electro Velvet or Michael Rice!

An Electro Velvet NYE would be a riot

I wouldn't mind Jemini/Scooch for some cheap gags

It made me laugh that a Spanish journalist was eager to point out that Sam was one of the few artists that performed live and didn’t use playback.

not quite like Sweden (Cornelia made it to #7 in their YE top), however, it's huge for a UK Eurovision entry

I think it's HUGE for a UK Eurovision entry. Like, did we ever expect this to happen ahaha

Let's hope this year's entry won't flop!

Unfortunately anything lower than top 5 will now be seen as a flop. That's my worry.

in charts or Eurovision scoreboard?

I really want this year's ESC entry to peak at number one in UK Singles chart. I am still mad that Styles blocked SPACE MAN.

I think scoreboard. Because Sam done so so well. I think anything they send is going to be put under such a microscope. Literally nobody expected Sam to smash like he did. The chances of that happening 2 years in a row seem slim to me.

I think the public will be OK as long as the entry is quality and I think TAP will choose something different so there is less comparison to him.

The pre-contest polls and international press said Sam could win (with Spain and Sweden) but Ukraine made it more unknown. It was the UK press that said “streets are saying UK could win but everyone hates us so don’t listen because we will be last” followed by “wow second? who predicted that?”.
