UK Eurovision entry Sam Ryder 'ignoring the hype' as UK's odds improve
How did you react when Sia and Justin Bieber commented on your videos?
Actually, the song was written a year and a half ago with no intention of Eurovision in our minds. It was a gorgeous, boiling hot day in London, so naturally, we were in a studio with no windows and Space Man just seemed to come out of space… man.Yeah, we smashed it! As a songwriter you sometimes get those hole-in-ones, and I'm just so grateful because it's not overdramatic for me to say that it changed my life.
Yeah, if you get given a brief, sometimes you hit it too on the nose. As a songwriter, I prefer to write whatever is coming to you on that particular day.I got a call from the BBC in January, and they said, "Hey, we heard your song Space Man." God knows how, but they said, "How do you fancy singing it at Eurovision" and obviously I'm a big fan, so I said yes.It has to be when Lordi won it for Finland with Hard Rock Hallelujah.
Well, thankfully you're here… But what's it like after 10 days in Eurovision-land? It must be overwhelming.
