Seann Miley Moore is a WAAPA graduate who went to the UK to compete in X-Factor. After finishing 10th in the UK, Seann returned to Australia only to get knocked out of The Voice before the finals. What does that says about the calibre of singers in the UK compared with Australia... Who knows..

This song wants to be an anthem, and too many Eurovision songs want that. It is undoubtful that Seann is a good singer, but it is hard to tell if Sean is intending to be pigeonholed. The choice of work does appear to be inline with Seann's other work, so there is definite pigeon-holing being done

There will be direct competition with Sheldon Riley, will not be good for either of their chances. Neither song is really better, they are just not the same as each other...

Australia Decides: Erica Padilla

Erica Padilla is the wildcard entry for Eurovision - Australia Decides. Erica first came to the nations attention briefly when she auditioned for The Voice Australia in 2018. After having failed to turn a chair, she is now competing for a place at Eurovision

The song is an empowered lyric without being a power ballad. Erica seems to have a diva voice but the song is flimsy. It sounds like it came out of a local church more than out of a Eurovision decider

It is disappointing this is the only artist out of Melbourne. There could have been something that stood out but this blends in. I strongly doubt this will go to Eurovision
