OFFICIAL VIDEO

OPINION

Two nice lads performing a catchy, upbeat song which doesn’t really offend me. They will bring their youth and good looks to Europe which will appeal to a whole new audience.

PREDICTION

I don’t think it will perform as badly as previous entries but it will be touch and go between the left and right hand side of the leader board.

LYRICS

“Heartbeat, when you’re not around is beating slow

And it’s something that I’ve never known, o-oh

I’ll be, I’ll be the answer you’ve been waiting for

I’ll be the truth you’ve been looking for, o-oh

You’re not alone, we’re in this together

All that you want, is right here forever

And they don’t need to know (o-oh),

And they don’t need to know.

You’re not alone, we’re in this together

All that you want, I’m right here forever

And they don’t need to know (o-oh),

And they don’t need to know.

You’re free, free to let go ‘cos I’ll be here for you

And when you fall I’ll be your parachute, o-oh

I, I, I, feel like I’m dancing in the sky-y-y

I come alive when I’m with you, I come alive when I’m with you

You’re not alone, we’re in this together

All that you want, is right here forever

And they don’t need to know (o-oh),

And they don’t need to know.

I, I, I, feel like I’m dancing in the sky-y-y

I come alive when I’m with you, I come alive when I’m with you

Don’t speak, your smile tells me all I need to know

Your eyes show me where I want to go, o-oh

You’re not alone, we’re in this together

All that you want, is right here forever

And they don’t need to know (o-oh),

And they don’t need to know.

I, I, I, feel like I’m dancing in the sky-y-y

I come alive when I’m with you, I come alive when I’m with you.”

Good luck Joe And Jake!
