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

[Leydan]

Am I the only one who found her vocal performance good? Or maybe I don't remember well?

I don't think it was as bad as people are making out :? but it wasn't fantastic. I think the staging was the main factor in its let down.

Violin -> Ireland
Flute -> Slovenia
Accordion -> Poland

Don't know if this makes you remember better....

Nope, I mean I don't remember it being bad as people say, and I wanted to find something good to say so I mentioned that

They can use the MF rejects and put them into a second chance NF to represent Ireland They use a lot of swedish writers and producers in their song so why not go one step further.

What is this, anglo-vision now all of a sudden? Do you want to kill the contest even more? Is that what you want, for the culture to be sucked right out of the contest as that is what is going to happen. People buying their songs from abroad. We want songs with local flavours like the fun and catchy "Quero Ser Tua" and "Leto Svet". I don't understand you people




Warmest regards and love, A-Lister x

Her vocals were good, at least better from the rehearshal but it wasn't that good to say it was great (vocally)

While watching SF1 I felt like A-Listering () because we went until #12 and all songs were in English, and in the end only 2 out of 16 were in native languages. In SF2, all songs were at least partly in English. I wanted to shout "bring back he language rule!!!"

I was wrong. It seems our selection process will change.

This was, by far, the worst performance of ESC 2014. While the song itself is good, the way it was presented on stage was completely wrong. The outfits were completely inappropriate, her vocals were terrible, the backdrop was also inappropriate......and in the end, it didn't deserve to qualify.

I hope comes back with something much stronger next year.

Deserved a top 10 in the finale.

I also think that Ireland gave us one of the worst performances this year, although it looked more promising in the selection show....

In Copenhagen it was just pure kitsch and all kinds of everything that distracted from the song

To be honest, what distracted me from the song was the vocal performance The song was so nice but the rendition was very disappointing.
Even by listening to the studio version, I already feared Can-Linn wasn't a great singer. Sadly, that was true.
