No, but this country has some great musicians and singers. The fact that this was the best  they could come up with  is  bonkers.

They made us wait until 9 of the 10 songs were picked. I was thinking here we go again.

We've sent good musicians before. We've sent a LGBTQ act that resonates with a lot of what eurovision stands for. We've sent good singers. We've sent popular social media acts. We've sent a god damn turkey. We've now sent something completely different to what we've ever sent before and it actually stands a decent chance of doing well on the left hand side of the board for first time in a long time

Never in doubt, especially when Croatia had to wait so long as well.

We sent the band Dervish filled with musicians in 2007, and they stood on stage miming to a back track. Eurovision is about a package of Song, dance, image, originality, a bit of madness and so on.

We have not been entering songs with the right characteristics up to now.

Would Bambie be representative of Macroom in general?

It's a song that has grown on me. They are clearly very talented and it's nice to have something different. So I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Crown the Witch!

We have some great musical talent alright but we haven't been sending them in 30 years. Other countries send their best and the results show it.

The easiest show ever to boycott.

The act is totally batshit crazy but I was still interested in watching it. I'd watch it again too. I can see a decent result here.

I think some countries do. Ireland don't send their best. The UK doesn't send their best either.
