Patrick: Basim didn’t change his performance much in the second rehearsal and that was a smart move. This is great. I’m not a big fan of the song, but the the staging conveys energy, youth, and exitement. The colours are great, the dancing is wonderful, and Basim has both the moves and the voice to secure another Top 10 for Denmark. Glorious.
Wiwi: Basim may have a face like an angel, but he is deadly in this competition. The choreography flows, the pyrotechnics enhance rather than distract, and his voice fits this ditty perfectly. There’s something incredibly endearing about the dancers in tuxedos. They have real chemistry and it seems like they are actually friends as opposed dancers who have been shipped in for the night.

eww what’s up with the narcissistic poster at the back?
OK, he’s singing well again.
I find this song so very irritating!! The lyrics make me angry, the overall Glee: Prep-School Version gets on my nerves and the bridge is simply spastic.
What Bruno Mars? This looks like the resurrection of Jackson-5.
I guess an awful lot of 12-year-olds are going to pick up their mobiles and vote for this. Which I find terribly apprehensive as I find it by far the most irritating song on offer this year (despite some stiff competition from Ruth Lorenzo). As for the huge poster, I haven’t seen anything lamer in Eurovision all of my life.
This year, I hate your guts Denmark…
I wonder who thought of the large flag. I mean, why would you want a huge flag with your face on it with the caption “Love” .. it’s almost cringeworthy.
The song is good though.
My books have already decided. Denmark is going to finish 20th with about 15 or 16 points. They’re NEVER gonna pick up a set of 12. Austria will end up dead last with no points at all!!!!!!!
