James Fox - Hold on to out love (Live at eurovision)

[MaggaTheMuggle]

This song is so sweet :)

[ESCeXtRa105]

Serbia Montenegro, Cyprus, France and Spain where probably the strongest countrys that year in tersm of vocals

[ESCeXtRa105]

should have done beter considering most countrys singers vocals where a shambley, painfully out of tune in some and some of entrys had bad english

[lyricistgirl]

Now that countries can sing in the language of their choice, just as an experiment, it would be interesting to present the acts without saying which country they were representing and see if the voting patterns differed from the past few years.

[kathrynashworth1]

I loved him on Fame Academy and I still love this song

[kristo1410]

I think it was too boring to Europe in 2004 - and UK is not placed next to Serbiamontenegro...... sooooo - but a top 10 i would give it :)

[MrsAnabelaMagic]

THE REAL WINNER OF EUROVISION 2004 :(

[jasonptify]

this deserved a low position - its a weak bland song and Im british but this really isnt a good song

[berniemoonbeam]

DECENT SONG . SHOULD HAVE DONE MUCH BETTER

[CorinWright]

all the eastern European countries kiss each-others ass so much, it's not about music clearly. it's about who your neighbours are.

[polishlover83]

i am watching him since yesterday

[TheMultiConflict]

just put leona lewis on eurovision

[8Julieth8]

@TheMultiConflict 

[Pechocha0987]

such a beautiful song!!

[kathrynashworth1]

I love this song and loved him on Fame Academy

[mervetrify]

it was my fav.. greetings from istanbul,Turkey <3

[personwithface1]

It annoys me that song like this can do so well now in eurovision but back then they were overlooked.

[viikidavikingful]

hold on to out love tonight because the UK will never win a eurovision!

[MrsMaruskica]

I love it so much! Greeting from Serbia!!!

[pay4paradise]

Just been to see Chess at the Lowry. He was stunning :) Well done, James!

[onegirl45]

It was the best song that year! :)

[8Julieth8]

What!? He was 16.. Europe what was and is wrong with you!!? All the good songs people through away!!! And if this is boring, then what do you want? Only screaming and the songs with no melody at all!!! Listen,people. This is a MUSIC competition. We should organised competition on the radio, where people would really only LISTENING to the songs.. And then we would see who would be the real winner. It's just not fair....

[leahcharlottte]

@8Julieth8 He was 28..

[SlowJoman]

you are all retarded, this guy is a joke!

[alleermed]

Love it!!

[Hollandsmusicgirl]

@alleermed jheeaa. its great i heart the song at first at ESC RAdio(greatest radio :P)

[TheBlackcat239]

Yeah and Ireland always give England a decent amount of points

[pratt68]

@TheBlackcat239: England? United Kingdom, please. There's more to us than just one country.

[TaraEckersberg]

Omg, i've had a crush on this guy for years after i saw him on ESC 2004! He's hot, have fantastic voice, and the song is very very good! <3

[Jottie11]

@TaraEckersberg He can be charming and hilariously funny too. He's great company on a night out! He has gone on to play Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar on the UK National Tour and 'The Pianoman' in Movin' Out (the Billy Joel musical) in New York on Broadway, the US tour and in London in the West End. He was brilliant in those and is starting a UK tour as 'the American' in Chess next month.

[TaraEckersberg]

Omg, i've had a crush on this guy for years after i saw him on ESC 2004! He's (well... was) hot, and the song is good! :))))

[leahcharlottte]

i really liked this song haha :| as an actual song, it's so not eurotrash

[Chickenchowname]

Best eurovision song ever!

[catz67]

I like the song, and he is seriously fit .

[lordkrill]

decent song but its all gimmicks nowadays..song is almost lost in the antics on stage from most countries

[sophiemarie33]

Not bad looking... are you kidding me? He is so f____king hot. Who is with me?

I mean...I want to find him and ask him to go out with me!!!

[amezzeray2]

this songs actually quite good!!

I havent seen or listened to anything Eurovision since... well, you know...

[nicko02000]

since when?

[Italianfishcrumpet]

Fair enough it wasn't the most exciting thing. It was a very good song though probably top 10 on the night. However political voting seemed to cost him.

I would favour it however if they made the stage much smaller therefore to stop people just dancing to victory. It should be about the song. Last time I looked it was Eurovision SONG contest NOT DANCE contest.

[collumbell]

He's gorgeous

[jccech]

i know it sounds like im lying. but James fox is my dads cousin!!!

[denbytree]

Was the best song of the night, but for political voting should of won END OF, Used to enjoy Eurovision but is now a farce

[BGrade15]

It's a nice song, a very pleasant singer...but there's no excitement or fun factor. Look at the huge show Ukraine put on that night - Ruslana with Wild Dances. Yeah sure it was a bit crazy but she rocked it!

[d0mst4]

There's a clue in the name of the competition. I believe it's called the Eurovision SONG Contest.

[Bille994]

boring... he's a bit too like cliff richard for my liking.

[separatesix]

It was the best song that year and he is not bad looking either!

[tjcwelshboy]

he did our Cardiff City Fa Cup Song

[wheelers04]

simple but good song...fantastic voice. didnt make people rush to their phones though x

[eurovision4ever11]

we should of been top 3 with this song

[samc2379]

he should have won fame academy!!!! absolutely brilliant!! where is he now!! x

[pdcordell]

He is still alive... new single out April 27th and its a corker!! :) x

[Ledzepellin999]

this was the best song in the competition

the reason why we nevr win is because the other countrys never phote us because there gelus great britains the bes t country ever

[aqualilyjames]

didnt think this would win, cause its a TAD cheesy.

BUT, he is quite a good singer.

has anyone EVER heard of michelle gayle ?

she the girl who NEARLY went to sing at esc for uk this year. i thought she was awesome. its what I call a esc song !

WOOH.

anyway.

either get a political song, or a pretty girl.

then we will win :) xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[aljaz]

nice song

[hobbesdawn]

I remember watching this on the night and when he started singing, you could tell his vocal performance was head and shoulders above everyone else on the night... I remember thinking that he was the first performer who was actually singing in tune...

[inspireradavstatyer]

Please, just face it: it doesn't matter if the song is good when the performance (the most important part) is crappy. He was so HOT and looked so confident in the music video... but in the final he lacked of stage-presence, looked ugly and why in hell is he wearing a baby blue costume?

And your bad positions has nothing to do with the war in Iraq, but I'm sure it's a comfortable excuse.

[jenslei]

You are absolutely right: What a pity that he looked like a catechumen that night ... a hot one though ... but nevertheless ... :-/

[ChiaraFan]

just 2 words: PERFECT VOCALS

[empear1]

With a few exceptions (Nicole, or Vicky Leandros) the British or Irish songs usually are the best. Nobody does pop music quite like them (and no, I'm not British!). If Eurovision doesn't break into two camps - west/east Europeans (let the eastern bloc vote for themselves in their own competition) - then Eurovision should re-introduce the "must sing in your own language" criteria once again. Eurovision is a venue to increase singers' profiles - let's see how good the songs really are!

[jadeandrach]

You know what's sad?? When I saw that we came 16th out of 24 with this I thought, wow, that's really good. Coz for us, it is.

[oxfordruse]

The problem with James Fox is that he was completely forgettable, even though, as sorayathebest says, he was note perfect. The song was also dull.

At the risk of ruining my street cred, I remember every Eurovision entry - of the UK and other countries - since about 1997. But I struggled to recall this one in a quiz recently.

That says it all.

The good news is that I think Andy Abraham is going to do very well for us this year! And if not, at least we can be proud of the amazing vocals.

[sorayathebest]

note perfect performance. deserved its great position (no joke, best we've had since the Iraq War!!!)

[quinny1200]

look what happens when united kingdom pick a good song for eurovision it always finishes in a crap position like 16th in 2004

we need a position like 3rd in 2002 that was a good year please send a good song Uk
