UK Entry 2025

[Wild Man.]

Where do we go from here?

 

[UltimatColossus]

Vocals. The UK needs a real singer. Also, let's not do a popstar moment next year. That isn't working.

 

[StatusBlackout]

I think the thing above all else should be incredible, unshakable vocals.

This was a winning formula with Sam Ryder. And the last time before that was with, who, Jessica Garlick?

As much as Jade's vocal was really strong, it was shaky and even a little pitchy in parts. Nerves clearly got to her on the night. Lucie Jones is probably the other/more superior contender for a really strong vocal.

It was a winning formula for Germany this year which historically lives in last place. Vocals absolutely saved that entry's score.

Someone with great vocals, likeability, and class.

Jade Ewen would be fantastic again!

YES!!!!

She has the vocals, likability factor, and has class. She would be fantastic!

Totally agree. This has to be the first, foundational priority.

I’d focus on:
- fantastic vocals
- a song that builds and surprises, with drama.

 

[Hudvar]

Something with a lot of orchestration I reckon and vocals that won't quit.

We've done dance pop to death in recent years and, Space Man excepted, everything else has been some tame Magic FM cut.

 

[madgemad]

Somebody the other day on here suggested Jessie J, and honestly what a fabulous idea for so many different reasons!

 

[happers]

The song needs to have an outstanding/dramatic/emotional live moment…that’s the ingredient we’ve missed the last couple of years. Thinking of France stepping away from the mic with an enormous vocal; Loreen hitting massive notes as the panini press rose; Nemo moving from flawless opera to rap etc.

I’m not sure that we should send a singer/heritage act who is past their career peak. I’d focus on up and coming acts with exciting vocals instead.

 

[UltimatColossus]

Maybe someone from The Voice? Slimane was from the French version of that show and look how that turned out for France. Of course, with the right song. Mon Amour was genetically engineered to show off his entire skill set and range while still retaining an easy to hum melody. That also helped him.

Ngl I'm here for a Jade Thirlwall UK Eurovision saviour narrative

It is also the reason France performs much better most of the time.

Worked well with Michael Rice...

 

[AllRed]

Send Pixie Lott with a Cry Me Out-like ballad.

 

[Martyn]

Send Pixie Lott with a Cry Me Out-like ballad.

Have you heard her vocals recently? We'd come last.

 

[AllRed]

Oh. Welp.
