Did the public choose a winner?



Spent a fab night in the Retro Bar last night for the Eurovision: Your Decision show to choose the UK entry to go to the Song Contest in Belgrade this May.

Despite the mass support for Michelle Gayle amongst the Retro's punters - including our gang - the public voted for X-Factor loser Andy Abraham and his song "Even If".

Against some of the dross that inevitably gets put forward in these contests, Andy is a good performer. And admittedly Michelle's song was a load of pants. But once again I have my doubts that the UK will buck the trend of Eastern Bloc voting that has hijacked the contest in recent years with this sub-Tavares soul number...
