    ~~~ Lyrics ~~~
    When you said you were leavin'
    To work on your mental health
    You didn't mention the cheating
    You kept that one to yourself.
    I got so mad was gonna
    Cuss you out, outside your house
    For everyone to see.
    Wanted to trash your Benz
    Tell all your friends
    How cruel you were to me.
    Instead I wrote a song
    Bout how you did me wrong
    I could have cried at home
    And spent the night alone.
    Instead I wrote a song
    I feel much better now
    Me and my girls are out
    And we all sing along.
    Instead I wrote a song.
    Instead I wrote a song.
    I kept my cool and composure
    My mother would be so proud
    I was ready for a sentence baby
    Instead I wrote it all down.
    Oh I was gonna
    Cuss you out, outside your house
    For everyone to see.
    Wanted to trash your Benz
    Tell all your friends
    How cruel you were to me.
    Instead I wrote a song
    Bout how you did me wrong
    I could have cried at home
    And spent the night alone.
    Instead I wrote a song
    I feel much better now
    Me and my girls are out
    And we all sing along.
    Instead I wrote a song.
    Instead I wrote a song.
    Let's celebrate
    Dance it away
    I thought my heart would break...
    Instead I wrote a song
    Bout how you did me wrong
    I could have cried at home
    And spent the night alone.
    Instead I wrote a song
    I feel much better now
    Me and my girls are out
    And we all sing along.
    Instead I wrote a song.

Perhaps where a song with unintelligible lyrics and disassociated staging wins? I think you'll find we're there already.......

      She has the worst voice. An absolute clownshow of a so-called vocalist. Off-key, weak, out of tune, unable to handle the end of phrases in particular. unable to project her voice. If she'd had to compete for it, she'd have been bottom-ranked and ejected in the semis. Instead we got to listen to her absolute pisstake of a performance alongside powerhouse young singers like Alessandra, who btw also has ten times the charisma of 'Mae'. Every single other singer in the whole event was a vastly superior vocalist.

      Mae always said that they asked her if she wanted to do Eurovision and they were literally like we need a yes or a no now. Maybe they didn't put too much thought into this year. I know in Sweden for example their songs are written specifically for the song contest and they always write solo or collab with an established artist. Seems to have done the Swedes no harm so maybe something similar is needed in the UK rather than just finding a song and hoping it's Eurovision friendly. Surely we all see that Eurovision is a thing unto itself and what may work in the wider world won't necessarily work at eurovision

    I completely understand why the BBC didn’t want to win this year as it would mean spending millions to host again, but the fact that the UK has one of the worlds biggest music industries and does this badly so often in Eurovision is a disgrace. We’re not asking to win every year, we just want a song that we can be proud of and entries that consistently finish on the left-hand side of the scoreboard.

    Mae wrote a very catchy pop song that works on the radio, you can't fault that, but her vocals were just not on point enough on the night, especially compared to some of the other contestants. She wasn't loud enough/strong enough. Her vocals got lost in the backing track. Well done Mae, you tried your best I'm sure. It's easy to just sit at home and slag it off.

They have one of the most politically ignorant populations on the planet, followed by an equally illiterate Royal family.

    man, I and my family got really excited when this song was announced our entry. it's honestly a bop! (even if I prefer my eurovision a bit more... out there.) but then seeing the preview for the live version during the semis, I don't think I've been filled with dread quite so fast by a song. it's a real shame they didn't manage to iron out the bugs in the performance. even though she has some moments to shine, poor mae sounds breathy and wobbly in a way that signals either inability to handle live performances (which seems at odds with what I've heard about other live stuff she's done?) or a nasty illness. plus the sound technicians have done her NO favours, with levels all over the place and a mic that only seems to pick her up half the time.
    just all in all such a waste of potential. but ah well, at least we can commiserate with our lifelong bottom-of-the-board buddies germany.

    @TheLobsterCopter5000 ปีที่แล้ว +94

    Hi, senior musical analyst here /s
    There's a few things to note about this song. Firstly for the song itself, it's perfectly fine for a song that would play on the radio, but in Eurovision, you want to put your best foot forward, and do something unique and special. This just sounds like every generic modern pop song and getting back at my ex song. It's not special, and it doesn't stand out in any way. It also doesn't have a particularly memorable hook or melody like something like Queen of Kings had. It's a perfectly fine song, just not Eurovision material.
    Mae's singing is...bad. Her voice just doesn't sound good. It's very bland compared to some of the powerful vocals that other countries had, and it's not particularly pleasing to hear either. Also, most British artists when singing will either put on an American accent, or maintain a British accent, but Mae appears to be doing neither and both at the same time, and the end result is just confusing.
    The visuals were basically a circle jerk for Mae, rather than attempting to be an interesting or powerful spectacle. They reeked of corporatised pop culture and came across as very narcissistic. The performance was generally not super interesting either, and Mae herself really didn't do anything interesting in her performance, unlike other songs like Unicorn.
    That breakdown was one of the cringiest things I've ever heard. Nothing else to say about that.
    Overall, it's baffling how this song was the one that was picked for Eurovision in the first place, and Mae's performance of the song didn't do it any favours. I wouldn't be surprised if the only reason Mae was picked was because of her appearance in Grace Kelly or something, because I genuinely struggle to find a compelling reason why this person and this song were picked to represent the UK in Eurovision.

I got the impression that maybe the monitoring was not up to par as it seemed like a lot of artists were not singing that well.

That being I don't think the song choice was right for Eurovision and the meaning of the song didn't really come across.

Like here, I don't even think she sung that badly but I could barely hear her! Only in few songs, like Sweden or Albania for example, the singers' voices were as loud as they should've been. The same problem occurred in the semifinals and I'm really shocked they were unable to fix it.

    Instead I wrote a song
    Let's celebrate, dance it away
    I thought my heart would break
    Instead I wrote a song
    'Bout how you did me wrong
    I could've cried at home
    And spent the night alone
    Instead I wrote a song
    I feel much better now
    Me and my girls are out
    And we all sing along
    Instead I wrote a song

    It’s so funny how UK has the strongest music industry in the world, yet they pretty much always end up last on Eurovision contests

      Maybe if it went to ITV it would be a different story. BBC just screams cheap

      I think there's a eurovision stigma in the UK music industry, eurovision tends to signal the end of your professional music career in the UK; especially if you don't win.

      @@RobVice we could send Adele, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa etc, but they probably would never do it. If you don't win, it looks terrible for them. I think it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy because we don't send more talented singers.
