January 21, 20223 yr Patrick won a show here in Ireland called The Last Singer Standing so he would be popular enough on the back of that in Ireland.
January 22, 20223 yr Brendan - formulaic, bland, dreary - I rather like it :D Brooke - edgy and modern but not sure it could succeed with an Irish televote Janet - very Mamas and I'm not a fan Patrick - very Brian Kennedy, a little "too" Irish. Rachel - could be saved with a great revamp. It currently feels a bit of a weak attempt at a throwback.

January 23, 20223 yr Miles Graham's lyric video contained an outline of George Floyd during "We'll make sure you're gonna breathe" (now blurred) which led to criticism about romanticising the incident. He allegedly liked tweets (though I can't find them now) that call the critics "crazy" and "snowflakes". Mess.
January 24, 20223 yr Yeah I think it's best to try and erase all knowledge of Miles and his song, like Colm did in his post above (intentional or not :D)
January 24, 20223 yr My ratings: 1. That's Rich (9/10) 2. Ashes of Yesterday (7/10) 3. One Night, One Kiss, One Promise (6/10) 4. I'm Loving Me (5/10) 5. Real Love (5/10) 6. Yeah, We're Gonna Get Out of It (3/10) Overall: 5.83/10 Top 5 rating: 6.4/10 That's Rich is the best here but I don't think this sounds like a definite qualifier... The staging needs to be remarkable or else this will get lost in the pile. Ashes of Yesterday is underrated though -- I actually won't mind this winning. Edited January 26, 20223 yr by uhsting
January 24, 20223 yr Yeah I think it's best to try and erase all knowledge of Miles and his song, like Colm did in his post above (intentional or not :D) I hadn't even heard it existed. Life was better then. :(
January 24, 20223 yr 1. Real Love (7.5/10) 2. I'm Loving Me (6.5/10) 3. That's Rich (6.0/10) 4. One Night, One Kiss, One Promise (5.5/10) 5. Ashes of Yesterday (5.0/10) 6. Yeah, We're Gonna Get Out of It (0/10) Edited January 24, 20223 yr by Colm
January 29, 20223 yr Janet seems to be the favourite to win from what I'm seeing online with bookies etc with brooke a close 2nd. Could all fall down to how they deliver on the night but I'm still team brooke to win.
January 29, 20223 yr I listened to all 6 of these songs yesterday. It's embarrassing that this is the best Ireland can come up with.
January 30, 20223 yr Now that the national final is back it might help get people interested again, i wasn't expecting the songs to be brill or anything but overall they arent bad and i genuinely really like Brooks song.
January 30, 20223 yr None of them is as good as either of Lesley's songs - even if she wasn't able to deliver them live. That's Rich seems to be very popular. I hope that wins even though I dont really like it. Edited January 30, 20223 yr by Colm
January 30, 20223 yr Lesleys maps was a huge disappointment at Eurovision, they really messed it up but story of my life i think was the better of the two but i would prefer thats rich way more than both.
January 31, 20223 yr The problem with the National Final is the Late Late Show doesnt have much lee way for staging so there will probably very basic perofamnces from that point of view, if thats rich goes to Eurovision i think if given the right staging might stand a chance of qualifying.
February 3, 20223 yr I'd rank them as 1 I'm Loving Me 2 One Night, One Kiss, One Promise 3 Ashes of Yesterday 4 That's Rich 5 Yeah We're Gonna Get Out of it 6 Real Love ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ https://eurovisionireland.net/2022/02/01/ir...order-revealed/ The running order has been revealed as : 1 Patrick 2 Janet 3 Brendan 4 Miles 5 Rachel 6 Brooke
February 4, 20223 yr Despite the studio jury somehow thinking she was the second worst of the night, the public saw sense and Brooke wins *.
February 4, 20223 yr The way the Irish jury tried to tank her and then had to congratulate her on her winning *.*
February 4, 20223 yr Ireland choosing the most contemporary song of the bunch is a turn up for the books! I think this might do decently in Turin once its got more than ten euros for the production budget.
