Eurovision winner DARA offers to write the UK’s Eurovision 2027 entry after Look Mum No Computer’s last-place finish in 2026.
The UK could have an unexpected helping hand ahead of Eurovision 2027. Following a string of disappointing results, reigning Eurovision winner DARA has offered to write a song for the competition – not for her home country, but for the United Kingdom, which has struggled in recent years.
The UK’s Eurovision record is far from impressive. Despite being considered one of the world’s biggest musical powerhouses, its history on the European contest stage tells a rather gloomy story, with numerous bottom-table finishes and just one Top 10 result in the past decade. The latest low point came at Eurovision 2026, when British representative Look Mum No Computer finished in last place with just one point for his song “Eins, Zwei, Drei”. However, someone now appears willing to throw the UK a lifeline – and it is none other than the reigning Eurovision champion.
DARA Makes a Surprising Offer to the UK
In an interview with British tabloid The Sun, Eurovision winner DARA surprised fans with a particularly tempting offer to the UK’s delegation ahead of Eurovision 2027. “They can hire me as a songwriter,” declared the singer behind “Bangaranga”, a hit that has broken streaming records across the charts.
Surprisingly, DARA also had some kind words for the UK’s unsuccessful entry at the most recent contest, defending Look Mum No Computer’s performance.
“I actually thought their performance was good. I really don’t understand why the United Kingdom finished so low in the voting,” she said.
DARA Dreams of Moving to London
The singer’s connection with the United Kingdom could soon become even closer. DARA admitted that she can genuinely picture herself relocating to the British capital. “I can definitely see myself living in London,” she revealed.
Will the BBC take DARA up on her offer and entrust the Eurovision 2027 song to the reigning champion, or will the UK continue relying on formulas that have repeatedly landed it at the bottom of the scoreboard? Only time will tell, but with DARA’s songwriting talent and chart-topping hits, this could be the turning point the British Eurovision campaign desperately needs.
Bulgaria in Eurovision 2026
“Bangaranga” is the song performed by the singer DARA, which represented Bulgaria in Vienna, Austria. DARA won the contest and got 516 points in the final. The song was written and composed by Dimitris Kontopoulos and Cristian Tarcea. While this is the performer’s first Eurovision entry, it marks the 15th song in the contest for composer Dimitris Kontopoulos. The song is performed entirely in English.
Eurovision 2027: The 71st Eurovision Song Contest will be held in Bulgaria, following the country’s historic win with the song “BAGARANGA” performed by DARA. This will be the first time the contest is hosted in Bulgaria.
