Eurovision 2017: United Kingdom

Hooray!   The last song!    

I am going to say that the United Kingdom have gotten most everything right this year.


Lucie Jones   "Never Give Up On You"

They have perhaps the best singer in this year's contest who is able to perform a technically difficult song impeccably.   The lyrics are terrible but Jones is able to elevate them to a point where they aren't a distraction.

If the staging is right (a difficult task for the BBC's Eurovision team), this could outperform the songs the UK has sent in the past ten years.

I'm shocked to say it's in my top ten.   I don't think I've put one in my top ten since I seriously started watching Eurovision.
