I didn't like the song when I originally heard it... but I liked the live performance! I actually think it's a pretty good song now... not sure if I'll be voting for them again this year though!

Ehm.........well for me this was an expected script, as all songs in the NF were quite weak, and this was in some way "the least bad" :lol:

I don't know what to say, I totally disliked "Lipstick" last year, and I find this one quite more listenable, but it is quite bad and bland as an entry.

I am not against participating for two times in a row when the song is good (like Lena's was last year), but this is lame.

I think they fail badly this year.

As for the song, just 1 point. At least it's better than "Lipstick" :lol:

The song sounds very "American pop" true, more mainstream than Lipstick, and that was the purpose I guess.
I like it!

I start to miss "Lipstick" :(. I don't like it, sorry Ireland. Last year they were in my top10, this year not :( Goodluck!

Hmm this sounds more like an American pop group, don't know, maybe a final not as good as last year, but ok last year I didn't like lipstick also not in the beginning:p

I was addicted to Lipstick at first listening but this one is ... I don't know. it sounds so simple but I must admit that I like the live version much more. They are pretty good at singing this song live. I do wonder which place they're gonna take. 4 points from me for the sake of Jedward and Lipstick :D

Ireland made the right choice. Waterline sounds more Eurovision than Lipstick, but I liked Lipstick more.

I'm surprised at their live performance, I thought they'd be shocking at this song as it doesn't really suit their voices. They've done an alright job of it though.

And it's a more polished entry than Lipstick for me, I think I might prefer it :mrgreen: 6 points from me, as the live vocals DO need to still be improved a bit

Hmmm for me, this is like Marmite. You either love it or hate it. Bit of a rock start to the song - they should change this imo. However...the song does have potential. hmmm 4 points!

You don't listen to much rock, do you?

I like this more now than when I first heard it. They just about get away with it vocally, although they struggle with the big notes. Jedward could yet do well with this. I'm worried. Very worried.

For the live performance I only gave 1 point.

But now that I have listened to the studio version, I like it a lot. Well, I think this song needs some improvement for going live.

I didn't like Jedward last year, and this year I hate Jedward yet! :? They are so uninteresting and antitallented, and song is awful for me too... One big 0!
