    I can't believe the love for Come On Eileen. I think it's an extremely irritatingly catchy overplayed song. Dexys had far superior songs to that one - the others did not reach Number One in Ireland. I see Geno was Number One in the UK, but stopped at Number Two in Ireland.

    Come on Declan
    I swear what we mean
    At this moment, it's an awesome song
    You must confess
    It's catchier than the rest
    Could be the winner
    Come on Declan

    Ah yeah, but it's still better than Madonna :D

    I agree though, Geno is a superb song and by far the better of the two.

    Half agree with you! I think Madonna's Into the Groove is tolerable. Maybe it's because I don't have to suffer it at Weddings, Christmas parties and retirement dos.

    I hate Come on Eileen, that's why I voted for herself, not a big fan of the tune but better than the alternative. If that were to win... shudder ;)
