Ireland IRELAND 2025 - Emmy - Laika Party

[ESC United Mod Team]

"Run Into The Night" is way more interesting than Adgy's previous attempt. I like the celtic influences and the "chill atmosphere" of the song but Adgy's vocals already sound so freaking flat in the studio version. He will probably sound flat in the NF again as well.
for now - it's a decent production but it goes nowhere, imo.

Reylta - Fire 9/10
Bobbie Arlo - Powerplay 8/10
Adgy - Run Into The Night 6/10

 

[Mrm]

For now:

1. Reylta 10/10
2. Bobbi Arlo 6/10
3. Adgy 2/10

 

[Sabrewulf238]

My ranking at the moment would be:

01. Bobbi Arlo - Powerplay (8.5/10)
02. Reylta - Fire (7.5/10)
03. Adgy - Run Into The Night (4/10)

On Escforum one user mentioned the possibility of NIYL being in...who is that?

What about Samantha Mumba?

 

[ESC94]

This is pure boredom, and his voice isn´t really great in the audio either.

Very unexcited from me.

My ranking so far:

Reylta
Bobbie Arlo
Adgy

 

[anabanana2000]

I have to say I'm not a huge fan of Reylta's entry, just don't think the vocal is edgy enough for the song.
My ranking so far (although it may change with further listens!)

Bobbie Arlo
Adgy
Reylta

 

[grazy2266]

Not really a fan of any at the moment, but I'm sure that will change with listen's like it did last year =, but based on what we got so far this is my order.

Bobbie Arlo
Adgy
Reylta

 

[Datura]

hm run into the night is not necessarily bad but it's way too uneventful for eurovision imo.

There are rumours that this could be the other male act and this is a snippet of a song he’s releasing tomorrow.

It also seems the Lyra rumours might be back alive as she teased that something is happening today or tomorrow

It's unlikely to win but not to shabby at all. ADGY has returned with in my opinion a stronger song than Too Good For Your Love. Modern pop with a few Celtic strings added in. Instrumentation is very nice. Criticisms would be It looses steam a bit in the last minute and the production does feel more Swedish compared to the demo.

He confirmed that his sister who plays fiddle will be joining him on the Eurosong stage. She co-wrote it with him. The word he used to describe how staging would look like was "celestial".

At the moment I would have this 3rd out of three.

Samantha Mumba confirmed, I am excited to hear her song…

Oh wait no, she spoilt it by revealing it on Wednesday…

 

[Gwendal]

Samantha Mumba AND Emmy (MGP 2021) are confirmed for today, with the songs "My Way" and "Laika Party". The RTE article points no link to Ireland for Emmy, by the way...

She’s not Irish in anyway but one of the songwriters, while originally from Russia, has lived in Ireland for over 20 years now.

 

[Datura]

Ok the samantha mumba song is disappointing, sounds just like a fabricated soundscape rather than a song to me

Emmys track is pretty (basic but) catchy but i dont see why shes in the irish preselection (even with the explaination about her songwriters)
Its indeed weird shes not in mgp with that song

[rasmuslights]

Honestly, only Bobbi has potential as of now.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I hope people won't just vote for Samantha because they recognise her. Her song isn't bad but I don't think it's the best option we have. Although I like the violins. I feel like the song needs some editing though.

Ranking:

01. Bobbi Arlo - Powerplay
02. Reylta - Fire
03. EMMY - Laika Party
04. Samantha Mumba - My Way
05. Adgy - Run into the night

Laika Party is fun. Personally I think Powerplay and Fire are far above the other three right now in terms of potential though.

 

[Ziko]

For me Emmy song is like the worst one I have heard this season. I totally despise this kind of music - again, for me, it's absolutely hideous.

 

[EscGeek]

Found my winner of this NF in Emmy
It does feel like it belongs in MGP with those pink visuals.. but i don't care about citizenship "rules" and stuff like that

Don't care much for the rest so far

Do we know if it’s another Late Late Show disaster this year yet?
