Schofield on Blue’s “shocking” Eurovision effort
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 14 March 2011
Now, as I’m sure you all know, we take our coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest very seriously here at CMU. But, as it turns out, everyone linked with our operation was washing their hair on Friday night, so none of us were able to watch Blue premiere the UK entry for the 2011 Eurovision competition, which they have penned and will perform, on Friday night’s ‘Graham Norton Show’.
So we will have to rely on that well known pop critic Phillip Schofield for a critique. His Twitter response to the Blue boy’s performance didn’t start well, as he observed “well that’s Eurovision screwed for another year!” He added: “Sorry guys, I love you together and individually… but that’s a shocking song”.
Noting that his followers were telling him Jedward might bag the Eurovision crown for Ireland, Schofield concluded: “If I’m honest, I can’t stand Eurovision cos it’s such a big old fix, but I watch every year in the hope that I’m wrong… it’s been a farce for years. Still watch, though”.
