Dark horses - These could all end up in the top ten if things go right for them on stage and with the televote (or more jury for UK though). Despite them being divisive amongst online fans on placing. Ireland and the UK both have excellent live performers too which is a big help. Finland has the...

Apparently this is the revamped song. Bambie hasn't released it directly themselves but this is apparently the version on the eurovision 2024 album. I love it. I usually hate our entries so that says a lot, if we get out of the semi (the real fight), I'd say bambie could go top 10. This hits...

Ireland is not a Catholic country anymore. We are secular and extremely liberal and progressive. It's not 1992. Most irish under 50 aren't religious at all. Ireland identifies as Catholic only in a historical sense vs British Protestantism. Its used a a cultural identity not a belief system. We...

I It's not a troll song. Listen to it on Spotify. The late late show with its 60 year old studio and awful sound mixing made it awful. She'd a good vocalist usually. If this is a troll song so was Lordi and Kaarija

Go Tobann was the safer of the two experimental songs. I agree her teen J pop style voice was her big mistake. But i am starting feel Bambie being even more of a risk will pay off.

I think it will be. But the issue is crazy on the late late doesn't work well as its intended for a solo act at a standing microphone haha. It could work in a massive high budget arena

This could do well. Another boyband would be bottom of the semi table like last year. Boybands are so 00s or early 2010s. Unless they are unique which they rarely are. The boyband era will return but not for at least another half decade I'd say. It's been dead since 2016/2017.

I'm irish and usually hate our acts. I liked Brooke as she was hilarious and had a great presence. But I have high hopes for this. A great song. Very different and experimental music like this has dedicated fans. Bambie is a great performer. You can look her up online. She also has a fairly...

People need to stop being harsh on vocals here. They had to perform in a 60 year old talk show studio with terrible acoustics and mic technology that wouldn't be used by any other broadcaster in Western eurooe. RTE cheaped out again as they are financial a mess (its a big scandal in ireland)...

Ailsha commented on one of her posts that UK viewers can vote. So I presume it definitely works

Just a reminder to all in England, Scotland and Wales. Since Northern Ireland can vote and has a UK number you guys can also vote for your favourites Friday night. Basically this is me pleading with our friends in Britain to help us get either Ailsha or Bambie Thug through haha The over 50s and...

Yup. Most UK TV is available here. We get BBC 1,2,3,4 and Channel 4, ITV etc. All UK based channels. But they are free to air here too. This is primarily down to Northern Ireland being part of the UK, so geographically we get access. Also we speak the same language and have very similar cultures...

It would be absolutely hilarious if despite RTEs best efforts we actually pull off a great song this year (against their intentions) and win. They'd have to host in 2025 with the pressure of the public and government on them considering the millions they've been conning the tax payer out of for...

RTE making DWTS is just a joke. Cancel that show already. Its cringe and can't compare to the UK version (strictly come dancing). Many irish go on the UK version as it is. Same with when we had the Voice Ireland and the good singers went on the Voice UK. RTE could really make a quality...

Not so much we stole it as you guys forced us to speak it a few hundred years back lol

I empathise greatly with Scully on such a prospect haha

Irish is a very old language which when directly translated doesn't make sense fully in modern conversation. What she literally said was "God bless you" or "God be with you" as that's how in the past people greeted eachother across many cultures. In reality when an Irish person says this today...

I I actually think if Sweden takes Irelands title, then it might kick RTE into giving a crap about ESC again. The current idiots overseeing Irelands process of selection and esc are in their 60s. The head guy is rumoured to step down next year or the year after due to him being due to retire...

Horrifically bad. Can barely even see much of a change to the song. Sounds almost the exact same. The video is cringe as they come across as trying to be edgy with a song that's so child friendly it could be a single one direction cut in 2012 for being too immature to release. Deserves last...
