yep, we are sending a turkey.
my favourite line from his song being:
"Drag acts and bad acts and Terry Wogan's wig
Mad acts and sad acts, it was Johnny Logan's gig"
odds are it'll still be better than half the shite there |

That turkey's been around for donkey's years hasn't he? The song is terrible. Still better than whatever the UK entry is though, not that I've heard it yet! |

It's possible. Unfortunately.

I'm actually relieved now, I thought people wanted him to be there...though I suppose a few do. Is this a ridiculous attempt to win via a 'novelty' act? When I saw this I got a flashback of that 'fairytale of new york' song he did (I think he did that...)
I'm disappointed I don't have a telly now...I'd love to watch the eurovision now! |

i think it's a reaction to the fact that the same countries are gonna vote for each other regardless of talent.
ireland are just bitter that their "talent" is going unrewarded year after year , whereas before we owned the eurovision bigstyle!
hahaha, seriously i only saw the last 5 minutes but Dana (she of "all kinds of everything") looked like she was going to explode with indignation |

Yeah, that's crap how they do that..should be judges...though I suppose we wouldn't complain if we did that.
Haha you make ireland sound gangsta'!! I heard the reputation, and the songs have been really good but I think they haven't changed the formula. Or maybe it's a conspiracy, like on Father Ted, they WANT ireland to lose so they don't have to fork out the money for the show...hmmmmm...
Poor old Dana...They should enter Westlife, or Boyzone, people'd vote for that! |
