Remember Monday had a momentous evening as they flew the flag for the UK at the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest, yet viewers couldn't shake off one particular thought during their performance.
The trio, comprising Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull, and Charlotte Steele, became the first girl group to represent the UK since 1999, delivering their dynamic number What The Hell Just Happened?, a song celebrating their bond which originated in a Hampshire school. Adorned in vibrant ensembles reminiscent of Bridgerton, the group delivered an energetic dance routine while maintaining flawless harmonies as the 8th act of the evening.

Following their spirited performance, Graham Norton, affectionately dubbed the 'king of Eurovision' said: "We couldn't have asked for more." For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter .
However, it seems that Eurovision fans were preoccupied by the resemblance of Remember Monday's tune to Billy Joel's 1978 hit, My Life, reports the Manchester Evening News.
On social media, @isoftuniverse commented: "Billy Joel's My life was on my mind during the whole performance of UK #Eurovision."
@philviles queried: "Anyone else hear My Life by Billy Joel in the UK's song?".

@snowflake_blob mused: "#Eurovision UK. Singing Billy Joel's My Life if it was written as a James Bond song by Queen."
At the Eurovision Song Contest, 2024 Swiss champion Nemo graced the stage in a dazzling full-length white dress to perform The Code, following an amusing opening act that featured a Mission Impossible-inspired sketch to retrieve the coveted trophy, which was subsequently presented to the hosts.
The victor will be chosen based on the votes of viewers from the 26 participating countries—an endeavour that is already underway—and juries comprising music industry professionals.
Additionally, a global poll was conducted where the collective vote will hold equivalent weight to that of a single country, and this international tally will contribute to the aggregated scores alongside those from national juries.
The UK's contribution to the scorecard will be delivered by pop icon Sophie Ellis-Bextor, stepping in as the British spokesperson for Eurovision after Doctor Who star Ncuti Gatwa had to withdraw from the role due to "unforeseen circumstances".
