Hello Hello Mr Danger! Like France, the UK and Germany it appears the Big 5 are not taking their place in the final for granted this year and delivering some powerhouse entries into the 2016 contest.  

Be warned Dami: this is a big hit in Europe and has topped the Spanish charts and could easily grab the attention of the viewing public with its toe-tapping energy.  

“Say Yay!” has mass appeal in spades and the Globen Arena will be on its feet in appreciation that someone’s rocked up to Stockholm to party. Come the Grand Final a lot of Europe (and Australia) may be saying yay yay yay!
