Lloyd Webber rules out Eurovision 'nonsense'

The theatre composer has agreed to pen the UK's next entry and is also searching the country for an act to perform it.
Speaking to Radio Times about his task, Lloyd Webber explained: "These may be famous last words, but I do find melodies quite easy. I have done so much in my career in different styles and I'm not really worried about it."
He added: "If I find a straightforward R&B act then I might be in trouble. I'm always very lyric-driven because I'm from the theatre, and one of our tasks for this is going to be a lyric that suits the performer. I'm not going to go for some silly nonsense song."
The Eurovision 2009 grand final will be held in Moscow on May 16.
