I've paid attention to this year's UK Eurovision entry, Scooch's "Flying the flag":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJTNcaCRlB4
Isn't that melody line in the chorus just the same as PSB's "Falling" (the part which goes "I'm falling in love all over again", whereas in this song it goes "we're flying the flag all over the world")!
Hmmm, just wondering whether PSB has been the influence behind this song.

I think it's just coincidence that the sound of those two lines are similar - I hope!

It looks like it but Falling is much more stronger.
I can't believe it's english band not german or... swedish.
eurovision is shit, it's like a competition for people who can't be popular selling singles...
i don't respect it.

Yes for Kylie, but PSB's own version has been released on the 1992-94 Further listening CD. I like it a lot!
