Re: ÉIRE - Ireland 2010
Irish broadcaster RTÉ is expected to announce their selection process for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 soon.
It appears from sources in the irish industry close to esctoday.com that RTÉ will announce a Eurosong 2010 competition.
It hasn't been confirmed that there would be a change of format, but RTÉ have been running Eurosong competitions, most recently for the last four years, with slight tweaks in the format year on year.
Ireland has won the Eurovision Song Contest a record seven times, last being in 1996 when the Eurovision Song Contest was staged in Oslo, Norway!
Last year Eurosong 2009, was an open competition that selected Sinéad Mulvey & Black Daisy to sing "Et Cetera" at the Eurovision Song Contest 2009.

Re: ÉIRE - Ireland 2010
As reported by esctoday.com on Monday last, Irish broadcaster RTÉ today launched its call for songs for the Eurovision Song Contest to be staged in Oslo 2010.
This year the selection process is called Eurosong 2010. The process is based on last year's selection format with a few modifications. It will be a Late Late Show special on a date to be confirmed in early March, where five songs will compete to decide Ireland's Eurovision entry.
RTÉ has decided to re-appoint the same five members to the judging panel as last year, chaired by Linda Martin. All five reflect different expertise both in the music industry and the Eurovision Song Contest itself. The other four members are: Julian Benson, choreographer; Mark Crossingham, MD Universal Music Ireland; Larry Gogan, broadcaster and Diarmuid Furlong, ESC expert and fan.
RTÉ have also decided, in response to the panel's observations, to give them more flexibility in relation to the selection of songs and the pairing of songs with performers. They believe that for an improved performance by Ireland in this highly competitive event, serious and detailed deliberation is required by the judging panel on all the possible options.
RTÉ is inviting entries that include the song, the proposed performer(s) and any proposed performance/staging details, for consideration by the judging panel. The judging panel and RTÉ will have final decision on the performer of any song selected by the judging panel for Eurosong 2010 final and the judging panel will be entitled to engage in discussions with any songwriter or performer or combination of these in respect of any entry, with a view to selecting the strongest possible combination of song and performer for the Eurosong selection and the Eurovision Song Contest itself. This includes the possibility of matching a song entry with a performer selected by the judging panel who is different to the performer that performs on the recording submitted with the song entry and also the possibility of matching a performer of a song entry with another song entry.
Ireland's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 will be selected from the five finalists by a combination of regional jury and public televote to be held on the night of Eurosong 2010, the winning entry to be the one that gets the highest number of combined votes on the night.
The closing date for entries will be at noon on Monday, the 01st of February, 2010. Entries should be submitted to Eurosong 2010, RTÉ Entertainment, Donnybrook, Dublin 4.

Re: ÉIRE - Ireland 2010
I like the concept... but it's up to that darn jury to select us some good artists first from which we can choose the best... And let THAT be our biggest problem nowadays.
You know, the Irish DID vote the best song to Moscow... unfortunatly it was just the best out of a selection of pretty poor entries. So if Rté (or at least the jury... which is btw the exact same jury like last year) gives us sh*t again... it'll be sh*t in Oslo as well... no matter who we vote for

Re: ÉIRE - Ireland 2010
What I find funny is that Ireland is always talking about how we won 7 times........we shouldn't deserve to keep saying that until we can get that winning magic back again (even if we weren't to win at least do well)
There's a reason why we have the luxury of being able to say that about our country....
I'd love a mini melodifestivalen, but in general I'd love more effort put in to the song selection as a whole.....and for god's sake please get rid of that awful judging panel.....we've had them for years now and they're not capable of picking songs that blow you away....sure they're able to pick competent pleasent songs but not ones with real flare and passion.....
Most of all though I think Ireland and it's people need to rediscover some sort of pride in having the ability to show off our best talent and creativity.

I know.
It'd be better to go safer with Niamh Kavanagh. I mean the ESC people know her and possibly love her - an automatic advantage, though they might expect more from her.

Re: ÉIRE - Ireland 2010
Mikey Graham (member of Boyzone) has also submitted a song.
Niamh's song is written by half the team behind Ireland 2009 and the team behind "I Lagornas Sken" from MF 2008.
Ralph Siegel has also submitted a song, and there are rumours Johnny Logan has too.

Niamh Kavanagh xwoo
Alexander Bard is quite interesting too...
I'm still waiting for someone to write a sexy uptempo song as gaeilge , I really don't care how impossible it may be. It must be brutally ripped from the depths of non existance into reality! :evil:
I wish John Waters would go away, they can't stop the spring was nice but his songs all seem to lack any sort of punch at all.

Only one I believe can do something is Alexander Bard I guess, but I hardly believe it will work for Ireland this year
