United Kingdom

United Kingdom
Artist - Blue
Song - I Can
Draw - Final, Place 14

Blue are a successful Britsh boyband, who rose to fame in the early 2000s. Blue consists of Duncan James, Lee Ryan, Antony Costa and Simon Webbe. In May 2001 they released their debut single "All Rise", which reached number 4 in the British charts. After this they released many singles and had seven worldwide number ones. In 2004/5 they decided to split, and to try and concentrate on their individual careers.

On the 19th January 2011, it was announced that Blue would represent the United Kingdom in Germany, with the song "I Can". When they perform at Eurovision, it will coincide with their 10 year anniversary. The song was described as a true British anthem, as well as having the typical "Blue" feel to it. The song was first performed on the 11th March, on The Graham Norton Show, although a snippet of the song had been released a few days prior to this.

"I Can", was written and composed by Duncan James, Lee Ryan, Ciaron Bell, Ben Collier, Ian Hope and Liam Keenan.

Current Betting Odds (William Hill) - 6/1
My Prediction - This will be the year that the UK make their true comeback. Top 6!

                                 Good Luck!!
