2018 Eurovision: You Decide

Goldstone were 2018 contestants in Eurovision: You Decide, in a bid to represent the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest. This was the result of three months of auditions at the BBC's London headquarters, which whittled the contestants down to six finalists.[3]

They performed their pop song, 'I Feel The Love' but in the end they lost to SuRie. Despite this, the band members were upbeat and positive about the experience performing at the event, which was watched by an estimated seven million people.[4]
