Re: IRELAND 2016

I still think Jedward was a perfect choice in 2011, and is still the best act Ireland sent in Eurovision during the 2000s.
About Nicky Byrne, I am afraid that it would be a rather boring choice and he would still need a great song to qualify. :/

If it's true,
Ireland will be the 4th country this year to send a big name (after :ru::mk::sl:)

Re: IRELAND 2016

I don't think we'd be cruel enough to inflict Nicky Byrne on Europe

Do you say this because you think he's a bad singer or because you don't like him as a person?

Re: IRELAND 2016

So Ireland could change their approach and get Nicky Byrne...
UK change their approach and get Irish rejects Jedward...

I think he is a bad singer and not a very charismatic person.
He is also employed as a tv presenter by RTE so it looks bad for them to hand him the Eurovision gig.

Re: IRELAND 2016

He's just not a good singer. As Westlife singers go he's probably one of the nicest. The only personality thing that I can hold against him is that his father in law played a large role in ruining the country both socially and economically. But I digress, he can't sing, that's the worst part.

Re: IRELAND 2016

Honestly I don't understand why RTÉ haven't approached Samantha Mumba yet?? She's the perfect choice!! She's professional enough for us to do well and in need of publicity enough to go for it!

Re: IRELAND 2016

If Ireland go internal, can we at least get a Late Late special for the song reveal? I need my annual fix of arguments, Eurovision mastermind and endless Johnny Logan singalongs.

Re: IRELAND 2016

It'd be fine if Ireland could give up Late Late as their selection process... That's ridiculous how Irish people can believe in a eight victory with only 5 artists which are not so different => music style, how they look like...

Re: IRELAND 2016

But if it were no Late Late, then Linda Martin wouldn't get her annual 5 seconds in the spotlight...
