Our “Expert” Panel continues for another year, with 15 members of the ESC United team having sat down to review the hopefuls that were set to represent their nations at Eurovision 2020 in Rotterdam!

As a quick reminder, the rules of our “Expert” Panel are simple; our team provide a score for each entry between 1 and 10, with .5 scores also possible – 1 being terrible and 10 being a perfect score and an amazing entry. Each entry will also have a video, where Matt will discuss the entry with three members of the panel and provide their rationales for their points for the song.

Time to see which song is next up…

We continue our run through the entries of Eurovision 2020 with Austria, who internally selected Vincent Bueno last year, eventually bringing us the Bruno Mars-esque RnB-pop number “Alive” – but is this how it made our team feel?

#YOU can see below how Matt, James, Melanie and Roy reacted to the Austrian entry below;
