I can’t stop thinking about Harlequin

The Masked Singer is wonderfully ridiculous at the best of times, but when you catch yourself being genuinely moved by someone earnestly singing from inside a ludicrous costume, the levels of chaos only reach new heights.

That happened last year when Nicola Roberts performed Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi in a Queen Bee outfit with a creepy doll-like face (honestly, a RENDITION!!!); and it’s happening again this year with Harlequin (whose highly suspected identity I won’t mention, in case anyone’s trying to avoid other people’s guesses).

Their performance of Harry Styles‘ Falling on Saturday’s show was so, so amazing – and when their voice broke a little in the middle-8, I could have MELTED. I’m highly emotionally susceptible to this song anyway, and now? Even more so! I’ve been listening to it a lot over the last couple of days and I’m now highly invested in Harlequin doing it again in the final.

I would like them to record a proper studio version when the show is over, please.
