Lucie was on Grahame Norton's radio show yesterday. First guest on. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00tw2b9She's carrying on with the tour, Rent have been "great". In the interview she wasn't sure about the origin of the song which was a huge fail. It's a SONG CONTEST love. Seriously, you would think these people would be briefed.

I wonder how much promotion she'll be able to do whilst continuing with the tour.

All the songs were dreadful and seemed to be composed by a committee of at least 4 or 5 people! I couldn't help thinking that Lionel Bart wrote whole musicals single handed!
The performers were not much better than the songs. Lucie Jones the best of the bunch - some seemed incredibly nervous and pitchy! We clearly don't take it seriously, the thought of winning and having to stage the show must send the BBC execs into financial crisis! The order must go out on an internal memo - "Under NO circumstances should we win this".

Looking at the response from Eurovision fans round Europe, it would seem that the song is going down well.
Which is actually what we need it to do.
I don't think it is a winner (and I think the block votes will keep us on the right hand side of the board) - but it is being seen by people as a credible song for once

She was on BBC this morning telling the interviewers that fans are calling for 'slight changes' to the song... One interviewer commented, "So they didn't like it that much then!" The producers/BBC are addressing the points raised on social media apparently.
I bet nobody asked for Boom Bang A Bang to be fiddled with after we voted for it. Those were the days...

Brexit means all of Europe hates us and they'll show it in the voting. I feel a bit sorry for Lucie because it doesn't stand a snowball in hells chance.

What a cringemaking programme that was. Bland songs, awful singing, annoying judges.
Lucie clearly had the best voice, by a mile, and the song seemed promising, but it was one long intro and I was waiting for the main theme development, but it never arrived. Really hope they work on it.
