same fate as UK. Mostly terrible songs since 2000 but my #1, 2 and 3 are definitely worth 12 points and one of my favourites in their year and alltime.

2004 If My World Stopped Turning underrated!
2006 Every Song Is a Cry for Love
2011 Lipstick

2014 Heartbeat
2015 Playing with Numbers
2013 Only Love Survives
2022 That's Rich
2008 Irelande Douze Pointe
2000 Millennium of Love
2001 Without Your Love

 

[dixenborg]

It pains me to say it but seeing them all together is just depressing.

Ireland simply didn’t bother at times including sending perhaps the worst, and certainly most cynical Eurovision song ever , all the time wingeing about the 1990s, “Eastern Blockers” and political voting.


2006 "Every Song Is a Cry for Love"
2013 "Only Love Survives"
2010 "It's for You"
2018 "Together"
2003 "Fly on the Wings of Love… (We've Got the World)"
2021 "Maps"
2014 "Heartbeat"
2011 "Lipstick"
2022 "That's Rich"
2015 "Playing with Numbers"

There's a clear reason why Ireland has such a bad qualification record. As I said before, it's always fun to ask younger fans to guess which country has the most victories and watch their jaws drop when you tell them it's Ireland!

Lipstick - 2011
Together - 2018
Playing with numbers - 2015
Maps - 2021
Without your love - 2001
That's rich - 2022
It's for you - 2010
Only love survives - 2013
Every song is a cry for love - 2006
22 - 2019

ps. Is all this love for the 2007 entry based on the studio cut? There were some painfully bad vocals during the live performance!

 

[Mainshow]

Together 2018
Lipstick 2011
Every Song Is a Cry for Love 2006
They Can't Stop the Spring 2007
We've Got the World 2003

Dying To Try 2017
That´s Rich 2022

Last day of voting today !

Things are starting to getting clear.

But still 1st to 4th place have only 9 points gap.

 

[midnightsun]

So much love for "Every Song Is a Cry for Love" - obviously the cry worked! I hope it’s gonna make it into the top 3 (too lazy to do the math) because it’s such a gorgeous song and I would have never ever guessed this one to be so popular.
By the way, does anyone getting "Shrek“ vibes? The melody is a bit similar to one of the main themes of the movie (though it’s even closer to Nocturne).
