Alexander will be competing at the 68th Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö, Sweden later this year and it's safe to say that the single has already won over a lot of fans already.

Writing on X (formerly known as Twitter), fans have flocked to praise Alexander and the single itself, with one fan writing: "Absolutely obsessed with this. Olly Alexander supremacy."

Another fan wrote: "Oohhh, maybe the UK can actually do it this year!"

Another excited user commented: "Ok I’ve listened to it three times and I do declare that #Dizzy is a certified bop, an earworm song that sticks in the head forever and a day. Anyone moaning can go to sleep thanks x."

Back in December, Alexander revealed that the song was "not a ballad" but would be "electronic, something you can dance to", with the single being co-written by Alexander and Danny L Harle, who has produced hit songs for the likes of Dua Lipa, Chic and Charli XCX.

Having his first interview after the release of Dizzy this morning on Radio 2’s Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, Alexander said: "Now that it’s getting closer to the date, it’s starting to feel real and its good.

"I feel like I’ve got less anxiety now 'cause it’s real, I know a bit more about what I’m actually going to be doing and I’m just getting excited. It’s like there’s nothing else in the world like Eurovision, it’s so unique and I’m just excited to be taking part."

Posting the new video to X, Alexander gave some further insight into the song itself, writing: "It’s about an overwhelming feeling of love for somebody that’s so intense it turns your world upside down."
