Hmm, I was completely on team Connolly, but this isn't bad at all, am I the only one who likes them? It is giving me Coldplay vibes and could make it to the final in Liverpool... 7 points.

Anyway, Ireland really needs to ditch this Late Late Show selection and create a proper National Final that tries to gather attention from young people.

After watching Friday's show, I now think there's a bigger problem than RTE recycling the Late Late Show format despite it failing for them year on year.

There's clearly no vetting of whether these acts can actually sing their song live - the sheer low quality of vocals and shaky notes was embarrassing, quite frankly. Even Connolly was mediocre live.

If we put as much effort into that as we do our national selection you'll be just fine.

Yeah I feel like there really needs to be some kind of audition process where they sing live in front of some judges before any decisions are made about who will be competing.

You'd think having auditions would be kind of a no brainer but I guess not for Ireland....

No worries! - Even though :ie: delivered the worst national final in Eurovision history, the Irish entries have been superior to the :uk: ones - even in recent years (minus Sam Ryder, obviously).

I don't doubt it! Get your selection off of the Late Late Show and in a big theatre or arena (3Arena says hi), vocally assess your contestants and get a judging panel that will actually JUDGE and call a crock of shite a crock of shite

I'd love to ruin some peoples night on a judging panel.

"Hello you're the big Eurovision fan"
"I am"
"What did you think of tonights selection?"
"Well tbh they were all fucking shite, don't get me started, in fact no I already am started. Enjoy the NQ, and lets be honest your broadcaster needs suing for this atrocity on display tonight, bla bla bla"

copy and paste to any meh NF.

They seem to be the basic boy's band straight out of the late 90s/early 00s. Cookie-cutter male pop music happens to be my guilty pleasure once in a while (yes, I love Coldplay), but this one has nothing for me to go for. Shaky vocals, no really melodic, and an absolutely bland chorus :4: points because it doesn't make me want to close the tab on the spot.

Is funny that Ireland is the country who have won most times and after the 90,s Ireland have been in big problems.

I normally like boyband and should like this. But i,m sorry i,m not. Yeah the first second gave me some Coldplay vibes. But sadly the rest of the songs is quite bland and basic.

His voice is pretty weak. The songs is just we are one and that is all i remember. The performent is bland and screem low quality.

Maybe this we look much better in Liverpool on the arena and not in a lame studio. But today is just 2 points and i,m afraid Ireland will get another year in semifinals
