IRELAND 2011 - Jedward - Lipstick

[MaryAnny]

It reminds me of this Dutch National Final song in 1999.

Also twins with an up tempo song who can't sing. (Warning: if you're going to watch this, it's really false sung.)

This song could be a big surprise in May. It´s polarizing and there will be many people who will call for it. It´s not my cup of tea at the moment, but I must say, that the song stucks in my head and sometimes I hum it. So I´m sure, that I will like it in a few days or weeks.

Three times Eurovision winner Johnny Logan spoke to esctoday.com about this year's Irish entry during a special press meeting held in Bucharest. The twins were labelled as 'embarrassing' by the former Irish Eurovision glory.
esctoday.com announced Jedward's intention to take part in the Irish national selection on December 2, 2010. The twins eventually won this year's Eurosong competition and will represent the Emerald Isle at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011.

During a special press meeting held on December 30th at TVR's headquarters in Bucharest, Johnny Logan was interviewed by esctoday.com and was asked about Jedward and their intention to represent Ireland at the Eurovision Song Contest. The former Irish glory regarded the twins as 'embarrassing' and expressed his negative opinion about the organizers of the national selection in Ireland.

"I don’t want to give Jedward any credibility by talking about them. For me, I’m sure they are lovely boys. But, really, I found a pair of shoes in Munich that have wings on them, and I believe Jedward wear these. I wear them to embarrass my 18-year-old, you know?", said Johnny Logan when asked about his opinion about Jedward.
Jedward's reaction was published today by the Irish press. “I think that anyone who hates on people that are younger than them, they just want to be younger [...] If people start hating on you or start saying, ‘oh don’t do that,’ you know you’re doing something right”, said Edward Grimes.

The twins also revealed some details about their plans for this year's Eurovision Song Contest : We’re thinking about having a really cool outfit, and will come up with a brand new performance because it’s a bigger stage. It’s huge, it’s an arena so like it’s going to be a huge performance [...] We’re going to shock people. People will be like ‘Oh My God where did these guys come out of? The event is a really good opportunity for us to gain more fans.”

Johnny Logan has labelled Jedward as 'embarrassing' in a interview given to esctoday.com's Alexandru Busa on December 30th, 2010.

You see :twisted: I knew you will like it after some time, cause it was weird how I like it so much and you don't
We simply have the same taste

 

[Turkish97]

This song grew on me fast.

 

[peter007]

I like the song, but they can't sing it live :S

 

[Rusch]

More often I hear this song, the more I like it.

 

[Mickey]

I think tonight's Austrian result is a big boost to Jedward's chances. Trackshittaz would have completely overshadowed them in the semi 2 performance stakes. With them gone, a big elaborate staging of Lipstick can have a much bigger impact.

 

[Rusch]

Yeah, the Austrians hadn`t enough guts to send the Trackshittaz. However, I think Jedward will qualify.

 

[BiancaGhiseta]

my favourite one so far

 

[gazzerl67]

I find the song itself irritatingly catchy - although I'd be quite happy if I never heard it again. The performance is astonishingly bad even by Jedward's standards. I am not sure that Europe will get the joke

LENA SINGING LIPSTICK on STEFAN RAAB'S CHAT-SHOW
SHE TELLS STEFAN THE TWINS ARE COOL AND IT'S HER FAVORITE SONG THIS YEAR.
AND SHE LOVES THEIR HAIR

 

[ot_fan]

I dont like them because of X factor and they were sooo annoying during show, but now, they are kinda ok... we great stageing and good production, this could be good performance... and ofc. good back vocals..

[mistertambourineman]

I prefer this version, without backing singers.

[escandesc]

I am going to vote for Ireland for the first time I really love this song ... =))
