Ireland IRELAND 2014 - Can-linn feat. Kasey Smith - Heartbeat

[Infernity]

^ Yeah. It's an okay song in my opinion but on the other hand, "safe choices" like this annoy me; you can see that they are not taking any risks.

I know. I mean, I really love the song and all that, but, yeah.

 

[PeterLPZ]

For me, it´s the best song of the year. I hear it every day

 

[Infernity]

Hold on to my heartbeat, my heartbeat, my heartbeat….

I just listened to this song for the first time. Unfortunately, I don't like the sound of the voice of the singer. Her voice can't follow the rhythm of the song, which makes the vocal quality poor. The melody is certainly uplifting but unfortunately not original. I've heard already a thousand songs in this style. Sorry, Ireland! But this is only my humble opinion

Disappointed that Kasey wasn't in Amsterdam...guess the RTE budget doesn't stretch that far

Did you like 2008 Irish entry?

 

[Krishoes]

I like this song, is on my top 20 (at #20 XD) but yes, it's a safe choice and I don't think they will go through the final

Well I use to love these entries but this just likes to me it hasn't got anything special only the chorus is kinda unforgettable. It's not bad for it's kind much not the best IMO

According to me a safe choice is a song that the country sings thinking that the viewers could appreciate it and vote it. But then it's not sure that it could be on the final, 'cause maybe their calculations are wrong. A safe choice for me it's not a song that can go immediately to the final. I think we have different point of view about the meaning of this expression. This is interesting.

Yeah, it seems that is the case..

 

[Iuris]

Now, I like a little more, but I think this song has much more potential, but they failed to get the juice...

I really like this song, but it's too run-of-the-mill - this year you have to have something special to win the contest. It has a German schlager beat, so my mum probably likes this If it makes it to the final, it will probably get about 2 or 3 points from Germany

 

[tsegaye]

I've thought about one thing, if there will be one country that surprisingly misses the final it feels like it's going to be Ireland. I mean, it's a good song and an ok singer, but who will vote for it? And I'm not convinced that the jury will like it so much either just because of last year's winner... What do you think? And if Ireland qualifies I think they will be one of the last countries to do so (around 9-10th place). But it also depends on the staging!

So annoyed at the lack of a performance of this outside of the Late Late Show.

I have to agree. I actually just did my ranking of Semi 2 and I really don't dislike the song but it is somehow incredibly unremarkable and finished 12th which means null points. I still think it's going to make the cut but expect a continuation of the recent Irish trends meaning flopping in the Finals (with the exception of 2011).

Exactly the same

This has grown on me lots I'm particularly fond of the minimal Celtic influences!!!
