YouTube star Look Mum No Computer has insisted he is not worried about getting nil points at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Eins, Zwei, Drei

Look Mum No Computer has insisted he is not worried about getting nil points at Eurovision. The YouTube star, 37, whose real name is Sam Battle, is gearing up to represent the United Kingdom at the international competition on Saturday evening with the song Eins, Zwei, Drei.

But the singer has promised that, when it comes to scoring, the song will not observe the tradition of landing his home country in last place – or at least if it does, he will deal with it in good humour.

Asked if he has a fear of scoring nothing, he said: “No, in fact, there’s a T-shirt that I’m dreaming of saying, ‘Look Mum, No Points’ There’s an outcome where there’s still fun to be had, even if there is nul points.”

Sam admitted that while it was a “very risky” track to put forward to represent the nation, he is confident that he has put a lot of effort into making it right for the big night.

Speaking to The Sun, he added: “It’s got a good ring to it, even though I have a feeling in my crystal ball, I might be wrong — and don’t hold me to this — I do think we’re gonna get points.

“How many points? I don’t know. But we’ve put a lot of work into it. It’s very risky, the stage show — it’s a bit out there. It’s about being different. It’s definitely Marmite, which is good, I think.”

In the track he references famous UK dessert “roly poly with custard” among other classic UK things. LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER said: “I am absolutely buzzing that the world can finally hear what we have created. Eins, Zwei, Drei was born during a session with the other writers and producers on my synthesizer ‘Kosmo’, and I couldn’t be prouder of it.

“I want people to be able to dance, shout, singalong, and just embrace the absurd jubilation that I hope it sparks when you listen to it. We’re working hard on pulling together all the elements to make it one of the wildest performances to ever grace the Eurovision stage, which is no small feat! See you in Vienna!”

A string of Eurovision icons have given their verdict on the song, including presenters Graham Norton, Sara Cox, and Rylan Clark, who all have strong ties with the singing contest.

Graham – who fronts the UK coverage of Eurovision said of the track: “This year’s song is a real banger. Joyful and supremely catchy. Hopefully it can get the rest of Europe singing along.”

Sara Cox added: “It’s a rousing, foot stomping anthem that’s like the wild rebellious offspring of 80s new wave and a big fat dirty beat. It grabs you by the ears & is insanely catchy, I think it’s a brave, bold & exciting choice.”

Rylan said: “We were very lucky to hear some of the Eurovision entry submissions beforehand, and I was struck when I heard Eins, Zwei, Drei by LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER. Out of all the entries it was the one that really got stuck in my head… I had to stop myself from singing the track out loud out of fear of someone finding out!”
