February 10, 201510 yr This is quite a good selection. I was absolutely dreading it but there are a couple of songs here that could do quite well if the vocals are good and the staging is right. I actually really like Molly's song but it wouldn't stand a chance. Erika is our best bet, by far!
February 19, 201510 yr *Ryan summoned me after my mention* The Molly song is very pleasant indeed! A lovely piano ballad, thanks for the recommendation Rich :D
February 23, 201510 yr ALERT ALERT ALERT Broadsheet.ie That website above says that actual Timoteij will be the backing band for one of the 5 finalists in Friday's Irish national final. Surely a guarantee it'll be for Erika? :o

February 23, 201510 yr Now we just await the news as to whether Linda Martin will be returning to the panel after she made last year's Irish national final the most unmissable of the year!
February 23, 201510 yr Author Erika must win if only for the resulting Kieth Mills hissy fit (if it hasn't already happened).
February 25, 201510 yr Drama has begun! According to articles from The Sun Ireland and Aftonbladet (the latter translated by an ESC Forum member), Billy McGuinness (the one accusing Louis Walsh and Linda Martin for being biased in favour of Eoghan Quigg last year) was supposed to be singing with Linda as the interval act, but has now pulled out because of Erika & Timoteij. pP_LlbM3nyE Such a fun night it was!
February 26, 201510 yr Yeah, apparently that's the issue. I highly doubt the general public will give a crap that the team is Swedish.
February 26, 201510 yr From Facebook... @Panti Bliss/Panti Bar: Back in Dublin for couple of days which is just enough time to be on The Late Late Show tomorrow night to help pick our Eurovision entry for this year. Yey! Linda Martin is on the panel again and I'm slightly terrified that this year it might be me she challenges to a fist fight. :cheer: (Linda Martin tho :nocheer:)

February 27, 201510 yr Won't be able to watch the full show tonight but excited for Erika and Timoteij!
February 27, 201510 yr Nikki's music video was released today, and it's really helped the song click with me! I did think there was potential but was ruined my the very loud chorus, but seeing Nikki actually "singing" it in the video and allowing me to actually work out the lyrics of the chorus has made me love it. I think there might be a few little changes to the song as well, I'd be very happy for this to win now seeing as I'm assuming Erika has very little chance! b8MU_j7Ebyk
