The result of her Eurovision publicity (massive plugs) was 4200 digital sales - it is in at 50 on the chart.

Tends to imply it's not a real hit as we suspected. When did Andrew last write a hit? For that matter, when did I?

That was why I looked for songs from anyone - and selected Kimberly Rew's song as our entry (he hadn't written a hit since Walking On Sunshine... it's not as easy as punters think).

Alexander Rybak is showing at number 3 on iTunes...

exactly what that means I'm not sure but I do think it could become a hit (if it gets radio play).

just heard Alexander Rybak on the Steve Wright show on Radio 2.

I do think this has hit potential.

Just got back from a break in Cornwall (that resulted in the break up between my partner and her entire family - though not us thank God). Thus can't be bothered to red all the Euro reactions and have just watched it on old fashioned video tape (as my lovely sister taped it for me). Reaction: Very dull, I suspect Sir Terry resigned because without the emphasis of political voting he really had nothing to say (surely all his talk was guessing - usually correctly - where 12 points were going). Norton tired, but it must have been difficult knowing where to talk and what to say worrying about being seen as a Wogan rip-off. I thought the winning song was rubbish - each year I rate them and rated it 4 out of 10. Jade was pretty crass too. I quite liked Finland (the middle aged rapping man and female singers but think that came last). Cirque act was fab but otherwise rather dull. Bring back Aqua, hee, hee....or Tatu (Note to Russia: they would win in new voting system!!!)
