The countdown to the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest is on and the UK has announced thier entry for this year.
Country-pop girl band, Remember Monday, will represent the United Kingdom.
They say Eurovision is "the music World Cup and we'll do our best to bring it home!"
The annual song writing and performing competition sees countries from Europe (and sometimes one or two others), send artists to compete for the crystal microphone trophy.
The triumphant nation also host the contest the following year.
Remember Monday will travel to Basel, in Switzerland, after Nemo's pop-opera hit The Code won in 2024.
The Grand Final will take place on Saturday ,17 May.
Who are Remember Monday?
Remember Monday are three girls from Surrey who sing country-pop music. Their names are Charlotte, Holly and Lauren.
Remember Monday are a female trio – Lauren Burne, Holly Anne-Hull, and Charlotte Steel, who all met at sixth form in Farnborough, Hampshire.
They describe themselves as: "Pop girlies with a lil bit of yeehaw."
Some of you may recognise them from the ITV talent show The Voice in 2019, when they were mentored by Oscar winning actress and singer Jennifer Hudson.
They are also a hit on social media, with over 11.3 million likes on TikTok for their vocal gymnastics.
They girls say it is a "crazy honour" to represent the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest.
"It's all very surreal; our friendship goes so far back, and we definitely never imagined that we'd be doing anything like this", they said.
"When you're a kid and people ask you what you want to be when you grow up, an absolute classic is "I wanna be a pop star", so the fact that we're getting the chance to live that dream as three best friends is just wild."
How do you think they will do?
Nemo took the trophy home last year - can the UK do it in 2025?
Remember Monday are to be the first girl band to represent the UK since 1999.
Their entry song is a upbeat pop track full of energy, excitement and drama - not to mention the girls' complicated and impressive vocal harmonies.
It was co-written by Tom Hollings and Sam Brennan, who are known in the songwriting world as Billen Ted. Thomas Stengaard and Julie 'Kill J' Aagaard.
Billen Ted have also worked with Little Mix, Anne Marie and MNEK so they are no stranger to a hit record.
