Sam Ryder has appealed for help from fans as he bids to make history with his Eurovision song Space Man as he gets a firm royal seal of approval.
It's still only been five days since the TikTok star did the unthinkable and finished second on the leaderboard in Turin, after delivering an amazing performance during this year's final., complete with electric guitar solo. And, as as he bids to translate his success in the Eurovision Song Contest to the UK charts, Sam has just released a new version of the track, featuring said solo, as he hopes to dethrone Harry Styles to claim number 1.
Former One Direction star Harry has been sitting pretty at the summit of the top 40 with his song As It Was, but, after being on the outskirts of the top 5 over the weekend, newly crowned national treasure Sam, who gave the UK its best Eurovision result since Imaani in 1998, has now edged in front of him and is desperate to keep his lead ahead of this week's rundown being announced on Friday.
