Courtesy of @escgo a little game if you're bored tonight during the Irish final

:lol: All of those will probably happen as well! I remember in the last couple of years when I've watched it, the Irish panellists (and presumably public) seem to be as obsessed with political voting as Terry Wogan - they are even worse than the UK public!

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!

 

 

Trub is, I love it but having now worked out said lyrics, it breaks the first rule of Eurovision club, don't sing about stopping/not replaying/turning off the music :(

Just realised I put the wrong link in that earlier post, if anyone fancies watching we've begun here: http://www.rte.ie/player/gb/live/8/ (It's on Eurovision.tv too)

PHIL COULTER. :nocheer:

Loving this Mairead person! :wub:

Panti and Mairead serving truth tea tonight. We're not trying hard enough. End of!

Linda making a lot of sense as well, much more positive attitude so far this year! :o

I think people are finally realizing we're often quite shit @ this.

Twenty seconds in and this is HORRENDOUS.

MAKE IT STOP

Sorry for spamming but IT'S LONELY IN HERE.

 

This song is about forty years too late. Nice though.

I'm still not too sold on Erika's song but it's VERY well performed!

Nikki was "scraicing" (Cal/Umi let me know if that is really a thing) so bad in that.

We use SO much slang here and I have never heard of 'scraicing' but it's fabulous.

 

Molly was excellent. Her or Erika please!

Judging by the audience reaction to the recaps I'd say it's between Molly and Erika in the televote. The juries could throw a spanner in the works (they usually do).

Molly's got this wrapped up I think, a 12 with the jury and 3rd place with the televote would be enough to give to her I think and I'm sure she'll manage at least that. Erika's actually falling down the betting unfortunately, and I agree that Nikki's song sound much better in studio than live. Although I'd still prefer Erika or Nikki to win in terms of actual songs.

Erika or Molly should win but there is something i dont like about Mollys voice, very very average choice selection and yet again us Irish certainly will not be winning or in the final running on the night. There is no winning song in that selection at all.

Is that Kellie as in the Kellie from The Voice who was about fifteen months pregnant during live shows?

They mentioned something about The Voice when introducing her. I don't know who she is but she sounded like a great singer!
