Eurovision 2023: Käärijä's Cha Cha Cha tracks for Top 10 as Loreen's Tattoo challenges David Kushner

Miracle by Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding retains its position at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart for an eighth non-consecutive week. 

BBC bosses are reportedly keen to sign singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor as their 2024 Eurovision representative. It comes after this year's contestant, Mae Muller, came second from last in the competition, which was hosted by the UK in Liverpool. It was the first time in 25 years that Eurovision has been hosted by the UK.

BBC sign language translator has gone viral after translating the Finnish entry ‘Cha Cha Cha’ into British sign language at the Eurovision final.The upbeat dance track by Käärijä was an early favourite to win the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest 2023. One viewer described the performance as “fucking bonkers and brilliant”, with another adding: “The Eurovision village went wild for Finland…biggest reaction of the night so far.”However, ‘Cha Cha Cha’ ultimately came in at second place to Swedish singer Loreen and her song ‘Tattoo’.BBC sign language translator Adrian Bailey was praised for his enthusiastic performance of the tune.

Eurovision 2023 winner Loreen and her banger Tattoo have moved one step closer to Official Chart domination - creeping up today to outpeak Euphoria and even potentially challenge for Number 1, the Official Charts Company can confirm.

Following his show-stopping performance at last weekend's Eurovision Song Contest grand final in Liverpool, it's safe to say the UK's fallen a little bit in love with Finland's Käärijä.

The effect of Eurovision 2023 is in full force following last weekend's grand final in Liverpool, with TikTok crunching the numbers to reveal an incredible uplift in video creations using the music of Loreen, Käärijä and more.

As Liverpool sweeps the last of the stray sequins from its streets, the Eurovision effect continues to impact the Official Chart.

Loose Women star Janet Street-Porter has made a savage dig at the UK's Eurovision Song Contest entrant Mae Muller, who sadly came second to last after a nail-biting vote on Saturday 13 May. The 76 year old panellist and former journalist weighed in on the UK's low position in the song contest, following Sam Ryder's rare second place in 2022, and she didn't hold back.The competition, which was held in the UK for the first time in 25 years, ended up giving the trophy to Loreen of Sweden and her powerhouse ballad Tattoo, who had won once before. Finland came second, Noa Kirel of Israel then came in third, and Italy was fourth.

Following last weekend's big Eurovision Song Contest grand final at Liverpool's M&S Bank Arena, a host of entries are set to make their mark on the Official Singles Chart.

Eurovision entrant Mae Muller has issued a statement in response to a disappointing result in last night’s (May 13) finale, which saw the UK finish second from last.Sweden’s Loreen was crowned the overall winner in the final, after earning a score of 583 points. Sweden were the bookies favourite to win ahead of the final in Liverpool, with Loreen’s song ‘Tattoo’ having odds of 4/9 on bet365 to win on the day of the grand finale.The win made Eurovision history, with Loreen becoming the first woman to win the competition twice, following her victory in 2012 with the track ‘Euphoria’.After the jury votes, Sweden stood in first place at 340 points.

So the 67th Eurovision Song Contest was a game of two halves for the UK: stepping up as host nation in place of Ukraine, it delivered a flawless extravaganza, perfectly walking the tightrope between paying solemn tribute to Ukraine’s current plight and presenting an undiluted celebration of the unity of music with all the humour, goodwill and sometimes outright bonkers business that offers.

Eurovision has officially ended for another year, and of course, fans on social media had no shortage of hot takes, conspiracy theories and memes.The 2023 Eurovision Song Contest was hosted last night (May 13) at Liverpool Arena; Sweden came in first place with 583 points, followed by Finland and Israel. Viewers seemed to be divided on the final ranking, with some opining that Finnish artist Käärijä should have won for his campy and unusual ‘Cha Cha Cha’, while others found Loreen‘s ‘Tattoo’ to be a fitting winner. “Massive congrats to [Loreen], who lit up the [Eurovision 2023] stage for [Sweden] (for the second time!) with her current stunning song ‘Tattoo’!” wrote Erik Ramanathan, the US’ official Ambassador to the kingdom of Sweden.
