I prefer Story Of My Life, similarly to Liam that late 00s sound is something I’m still a big fan of, but this also sounds very good. The last minute is fab.

This is solid but I’m in the minority (although the split feels a bit more balanced in this thread) that prefer “Story of my Life” as I just enjoy that sound more and it was in my top 10 of last year. But it’s not as much of a downgrade for me as Eden or Victoria, I think after more listens they will settle at a similar level in more affections.

I think id like it more if could differentiate the verses from the chorus as I find it all blends into one.

Over the last 12 months, I've been watching a lot of reaction videos to songs - mostly from the last few years but certainly a lot from 2020 and 2021.

 

I've never seen so many reviewers get emotional when reacting to a song as I have with this one. Some of these are quite established Eurovision bloggers. :o

First listen and this sounds pretty strong to me - instantly likeable, could imagine this doing very well indeed

Its starting to stick in my head now after a few listens.

I've overplayed it now. It's stating to lose its shine.

It seems to be getting a more positive reaction than any Irish entry has got in a long time.

This is lovely! Very instant and likable. GO IRELAND *.*

Qualifying would be great, not sure what would happen after that but i think Lesley would be over the moon if she can even just qualified and flopped at the final.

Maps made its chart debut in Ireland this week at number 76.

I think id like it more if could differentiate the verses from the chorus as I find it all blends into one.

 

 

I agree ...

Glad I'm not the only one although it is growing on me.

This seems to be the most popular Irish entry based on online comments for some time, im still finding it hard to predict whether it will qualify or not, some of the online positivity gives me good hope though.

Really hoping this somewhat dark horses itself into the top 10! It's just so feel good.

Looking at some of the odds on who will make semi final 1 tomorrow night Ireland seem to be complete outsiders to quallify :( im hoping we can qualify as i think its not a bad song and they seem to really have put the effort into good staging aswell.
