The last of five reasons why the UK won’t win this year’s Eurovision Song Contest (aside from the dismalness of our own entry) is Hungary’s Dance With Me.
Now admittedly a lot of its appeal is in the great video, in which the same guy – Zoli Adok – dances throughout, but it’s still a catchy tune that gets in your head and stays there. And that’s no bad thing.
As with all five challengers I’ve highlighted, he might not make it to the final on Saturday night, as he has to qualify on Thursday semi-final, but I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed. You can see why in this video:
The first semi is tonight, through which I’ll be flying flags for Sweden and Montenegro (with a little pennant run up for Iceland, too). On Thursday I’ll be cheering on Hungary, Norway (my favourite to win), Estonia and the Ukraine (my favourite song in the contest).
The UK can only vote in the first semi and, of course, in Saturday’s final.
Check out numbers one, two, three and four in our list of five reasons why the UK won’t be winning Eurovision this year.
