what a waste of time it certainly would be. plitics rules on that show and is geting worse. The only reason i watch it at all is for the comedic factor of terry wogans commenatary. He makes me howl.

i,m afraid that nothing will prevent the nil points. it is policitical sillyness that has over run into a music event. I like Andrew Lloyd webber he is a very talented person but he is wasting his time and effor i,m afraid.

No matter how good the song or the singer we will never win unless the voting system is changed

thankyou andrew for tacking risks for uk we are a nation with many gifts and we would love to show that we can represtan our nation in a good way every blessing to you has you tack time out to serve us all dorie baker birmingham uk

Mission Impossible. Britain is not going to win who ever writes or sings. The Lord Himself would lose if He represented Britain. Only nutters and conspirators win !

I could write better

Dont bother! Boycott the Eurovision! Its all fixed and boring anyway! Have we not got better things to do, the countrys in financial crisis and all we can worry about is foreign transvestites winning a singing competition!

No doubt an ALW composition would be a commercially viable pop song in its own right, but I doubt it could win the Eurovision. I suspect the rest of Europe is still upset that Britain hasn't adopted the Euro currency (and probably never will).

His bland and dreary style is ideal!

Voting for Eurovision has been a farce for along time - time for it to stop!

Hope Webber can pull it off but i doubt it sadly :-(

the competition is a waste of time and money anyway

its so predictable every year waste of time and money

WHERE DO YOU AUDITION FOR THIS? I WANNA HAVE A GO X

we have potentials of winning with sir Andrew

I do not doubt Andrew Lloyd Webber's genius, but genius has its limits. why is he the MAN for this job...why not a competion for the song first?

Please try to get it: U.K.'s foreign policy has done it for you!

Gary Barlow should write it.....Take that's songs are loved worldwide, and if he can get a number 2 with Peter Kay / Geraldine, then whatever song he writes for Eurovision surely has great potential!!

The Political Voting HAS got 'out of hand'. In my view it has always been there but, since the break up of the Baltic states, it has got much worse. Where as before, every country had the chance to win - 7 wins for Ireland, more than any other competing country - now the only countries winning are all neighbours of, or including, the Baltic states. When the UK last won the right to host the Contest, Johnathon King was instrumental in bringing the contest up-to-date. He made sure that voting was fairer by removing the judging panels and allowing for viewer tele-voting. I hoped that the inclusion of the Sem-finals would allow for the worst songs to be missing from the Final but, instead, political voting drives the worst songs forward and the good songs lose out. We all know why Jemini got 'nul points'. It was a decent song, it failed to get votes for two reasons. The British Government went against Europe and joined America in the invasion of Iraq - no country voted for the UK entry, not even our neighbour Ireland. Then, the play back monitors had been mysteriously switched off so that the two singers missed their cues.

My solution: Like the UK entry (based on a selection of songs from Wales, N. Ireland, Scotland and England), the Baltic states should each enter a song, have a Baltics final and then enter that winning song as the Baltic states entry. That way, all the viewers would have to vote for the song they liked the best and not for their Baltic neighbour.

Sadly I think that Euro vison has become ruled by politics. Acts need to be entered in anonamously with all countries singing in a single laungage, and countries are revealed after voting has happened.
Something needs to be done because it is not bringing Euro together it is causing more divides in Euro.

my god, has his career sunk that low that he has to sink to sucj pathetic publicity seeking?
