They have an absolutely super song. They have a very attractive singer with a lacy dress and big headphones. They have a good looking pianist with a rockstar haircut. They have someone playing an invisible violin. These are good ingredients. If you were going on Ready, Steady, Cook A Eurovision Song you’d be quite optimistic about your chances if you found those ingredients in your bag. You wouldn’t say stuff like:
“It’s all a bit beige, isn’t it? Not really catching fire at all.”
Anyway, I’ve recalibrated. This is what they did in the Slovenian final and got everyone very excited with fresh ears about what a great song it is. They’ll be absolutely fine. Right?
It’s qualifying. Of course it is. There’s a surprise NQ every year, but it’s absolutely not this. And if I say it enough times, I’ll convince myself.
