Well done GuyBarry for somehow predicting the predictableness of our entry... some 10 years ago.

They were trying to reheARSE "NA-La-na-la-na", the UK's ambitious entry for that year's contest. (After years of Eurovision failure the BBC had come to realize that their best hope lay in a song consisting of meaningless gibberish.)
Mae Muller's lyrics aren't far off:
Instead I wrote a song 'bout how you did me wrong
I could have cried at home and spent the night alone
Instead I wrote a song, I feel much better now
Me and my girls are out and we all sing along

Well thank you! If we don't pull it off this year, I propose that "Na-la-na-la-na" should become the official entry next year. Has anyone got Ken Sington's phone number?

Not sure what the bookies know that we don’t but the UK has been absolutely tanking in the last week or so. They’re now favourite to be last (surely that’ll be Spain?).
In fairness Mae’s rehearsals have been pretty rubbish, although I’m told she was better last night.
