Oh dear, I'm on the tail end of the boomers and I don't like the boy band either. As much as people like to kvetch about RTE in my opinion the problem is the Irish voters.
People who like this genre of music and watch with their families may not usually bother to vote because the pop songs aren't to their taste, so perhaps with Australia and Germany this year they will have something to vote for.

Apparently the Greeks and Albanians are to blame for Denmark's NQ as people in lower latitudes are too unsophisticated to understand modern pop music. :rolleyes:
I hope Connolly returns to the Irish national selection in the future. Midnight Summer Night was my favourite entry and she did well for someone who had never performed before.
