The UK's Eurovision entry for 2026, performed by Look Mum No Computer, features lyrics predominantly in German, sparking curiosity among fans. The track, titled 'Eins, Zwei, Drei', is set to compete in the grand final in Vienna tonight.
Sam Battle, the musician behind Look Mum No Computer, explained his choice of language in an interview with Radio Times. He stated that he has spent more time in Germany than any other country except the UK, which heavily influenced the song's composition. He added that counting in German felt natural for the chorus and helped the verses merge seamlessly.
The grand final, hosted by Graham Norton, will take place at the Wiener Stadthalle arena. It features 25 countries, following the withdrawal of five nations, including Spain, in protest over Israel's participation amid the Gaza conflict. The show begins at 8pm BST on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
