    Why didn't they get a girl to sing that song?

    I thought it was


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,203 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    There was just no power in the voice.

    It's a no from me.

    Sings like a girl!

    Well he was better than these two.

    What's the commentary like on the box? The two lads on the radio are just soooo camp and PC, they'd make you blush (with embarrassment)

    Still don't think we'll qualify but can't fault Brendan Murray at all. He did the best he could with the song he was given. He does have a fantastic voice, albeit one that would not be to everyone's taste. He deserved a better song. :(

    Absolute crap. Louis Walsh jobs for the boys. That was a decent song for a female.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,767 ✭✭✭Ben Gadot


    Poor Brendan.....that's the end of Eurovision for him

    Hopefully It's The end Full Stop.

    How has San Marino got something more contemporary than Ireland? Especially when San Marino have clearly only entered the 80's quite recently.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,922 ✭✭✭snowflaker


    Yes! San Marino lifts the tempo!

    Following Ireland's dirge will help them no end!

    Why does Marty always have to say that Ireland's performance was terrific, if he doesn't get through he'll say we were robbed.

    Cause he has his lucky jocks on him?

    Say whaaaa, the Rock meets a Kylie impersonator.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,869 ✭✭✭PeterTheNinth


    The production is absolutely shocking.. All vocals are buried behind the tracks and production effects/screens. The tracks are too prominent and the vocals are put right to the back of the mix. And NO interaction with the crowd. Honestly you might as well just play the video on the big screen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,699 ✭✭✭✭AndyBoBandy


    There's a few backing singers

    Gotta keep getting that RTE paycheck somehow.

    Why do so many songs on this remind you of some other song that you just can't place?

    San Marino, a country with 43 inhabitants, showing us how it's done

    Nothing can top Swedens show last year, it was just brilliant from start to finish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,086 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    This is a bit like Gemini...not a good thing.

    This is like karaoke down the Dog & Duck at Auntie Mary's 60th birthday party.

    She looks like Sharon Horgan


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,851 ✭✭✭Barnaboy


    Honestly think that was the worst effort from Ireland ever, and I am including Dustin the turkey. That was shocking.

    This is actually great ahaha. It is so bad it's good. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,356 ✭✭✭Right2Write


    This is awful sh*te.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,922 ✭✭✭snowflaker


    Spirit of the night? Don't mind if I do?

    Song 10? Jameson time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,086 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    They dug that song up from 2003.

    How many frickin key changes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,109 ✭✭✭Mena Mitty


    Just heard the Irish song on the radio. I thought it sounded way better than the performance on TV last week. It's a thumbs up from me.
