May 15, 201015 yr Well, Niamh has a cold so her performance was far from perfect last night. :P And we are back to the original backing singers... I like the remix, but I'm not a clubbing person, so I'll stick to the original. :heehee:
May 16, 201015 yr Great remix i hope it is on the cd single which i hope to purchase monday, ya i hope niamh can get over the flu she has but im sure she will, she performed very well on the late late show considering she has the flu.
May 16, 201015 yr Me too, i generally like entries from Norway, but fairytales didnt do anything for me. Now a repeat of the last conest held in norway would be ideal for me,as we recall norway hosted in 1996 and Ireland won, lets hope its a repeat.
May 19, 201015 yr I can't decide whether this reminds me more of The Winners Song (particularly the intro although that sounds like every Westlife song too), You Raise Me Up or My Heart Will Go On :kink: I'm glad to have it in proper HQ though because the version I bought from iTunes the day after Niamh won her NF was surprisingly poor quality, I really should have complained about it actually.
May 19, 201015 yr Really? I didn't realise that. Maybe it was the demo version? Anyone know the tracklist for the CD single btw, or where I can buy it? Will it be released in the UK?
May 19, 201015 yr It was released here last Friday(?), but I don't know anything about a UK release. :( Edited May 19, 201015 yr by Cal
May 21, 201015 yr Number 24 in the Irish charts this week giving it a new peak, but it will climb over the next 2-3 weeks, last year Sinead Mulvey and black daisy climbed alot after the semi final was aired.
May 22, 201015 yr probably not but ya never know,irelands odds have improved going by paddy power niamh is now 16/1 she was 20/1
May 22, 201015 yr Author Wow those are very good odds (for Ireland anyway :P) I just want to see us qualify first though, it's not as fun when you're looking on from the sidelines. :(
