The new version image April 3
Album re-issue May 15, digital
iTunes/Applemusic New Zealand released the song on the right date, but forgot about the planned reveal and the time difference, oh well....

A new version titled Mon Alliée (The best in me) was recorded for the contest, this one was released on April 3.
On May 15 Leeb's album Recollection was re-released with a new version of The Best In Me (fully in English) and the ESC version included. No physical release though....

His style can be describes as Singer-Songwriter with a hint of Americana.
Tom Leeb is a comedian, actor and singer who has released two albums to date.
- Tom Leeb (mini album from 2018)
- Recollection (September 2019)
So far all his released songs have been in English. Both albums have been released on CD as well as digital.
