Muller will be performing “I Wrote a Song” at the finals of the Eurovision Song Contest on the 13th May. The song, which she co-wrote with Karen Poole and Lewis Thompson, is the first UK Eurovision entry to debut inside the Top 40 on the Singles Chart in its first week since 2011. It peaked at number 30 on the UK Singles and number 3 on the UK Singles Downloads. The song debuted on the 9th March this year coinciding with the announcement that Muller would be representing the UK in the contest. Watch the video for the song below:
“Not to toot my own horn, but I think it’s a great pop song,” Muller told Music Week. “You can dance to it and it’s also a heartbreak anthem, but it’s more than that: it’s about lifting yourself back up, empowering yourself, believing in your self worth and working through negative emotions to come out the other side. And I think that aligns with Eurovision.”
The 25-year-old singer from London, whose full name is Holly Mae Muller, has been rising in notoriety over the last few years. Her debut album Chapter 1 was released in 2019, the same year she supported Little Mix on their LM5: The Tour.
