December 16, 200816 yr Author Thanks, surprised about 1984, 1985 and 1995 considering how they flopped in the UK. I think maybe the the 95 winning song was only such a big hit in Ireland because it was in between all the Irish wins and also a big thing was made of the fact that one of the members of Secret Garden was Irish :lol:
