I don't get why people support someone in a song competition for the simple reason that said person is from their city. If people are interested the competition shouldn't they vote what song they like the most and what song they think would be most successful.

I have no interest in it myself but I wish her all the best.

Berty

Is she from Limerick? I thought she was from Clare. Blackwater, Parteen, Clonlara or something like that.

Raiser

Did the Messy Cow take her 'vote for me' signs off our Roundabouts yet?

It all comes back to the inward looking small town politics, vote for your own because there's someone from the next parish in the competition too and we can't have them winning it...etc etc....

It's a load of crap, vote for the song you like, not the person who lives nearest to you.

Would agree with that. People complain that in the Eurovision when countries vote for neighbouring countries and not for the quality of song, yet in all the so called "talent" shops on tv and in things like this song, the hype is to vote for someone because of where they are from/based.


Shan't be voting for her song as I think it is awful, but I hope it is a step to her getting further in the music business as she always comes across as a pretty decent sort.

Yes it is, only 2 areas of Corbally aren't in Limerick City, Shannon Banks and Westbury. The rest is within the city boundaries.

She grew up in Caherdavin actually, but later moved out to Ardnacrusha.

She considers herself to be a Limerick lass.

Was just a simple question,I'm not a Limerick native and when I lived in Corbally for a year,my mail was a mix of Co.Clare,Limerick City and Co.Limerick

That's why I asked

And Carraig Midhe where I lived in Corbally is in Clare,so that would be 3 places?

billy the squid

As much as I like Leanne Moore, I wouldn't piss on john waters if he was on fire.

Aidric

The song is tragic.

bazz26

These two have a better chance of winning the Eurovision imo:



But then again maybe RTE cannot afford to win it as it costs a fortune to stage it the following year.

Paulegend

the song sucks. and just to get you back for trying to steal my vote for a stupid song im going to vote for everyone else. and ill get everyone i know to vote for everyone else. i think i have a spare 20 quid to spend on votes for everyone except her:D

Fair enough. She can claim both really.

I lived in Shannon banks. It had two address's when you feel like it.

Knocballynameath, Parteen Co Clare

or

Shannon banks
Corbally
Limerick

Clare address for house and car insurance.
Limerick address to get your post faster.

Next time you see her tell her to find out who is sending out text messages on her behalf and tell her that what they are doing is in breach of the Data Protection Act.

Icky Thump

the song sucked its sounded crap and the performance was crap. just because she is from limerick doesnt mean she should be backed

HEY! That's not right - Look at Mozart, he would never have reached the pinnacle of the music industry without ignorantly petitioning Strangers with unwanted text messages and littering the Landscape with begging signs and desperate posters.

- Sometimes huge musical talent needs a hugely artificial, manufactured and nonsense boost.

P.S. Yet another Friday night where I have to go to bed while accepting the bitter fact that nobody shot Ryan Tubridy thrice in the face.....

Its more of a pity that people get sucked into supporting no talent singers purely because they're from the same city instead of supporting genuinely talented musicians who will never get a break as they dont try and appeal to the lowest common denominator morons who watch stuff like this

Icky Thump

shame on you OP shame on you

Leanne Moore has a talent for singing. She is a very good singer. Maybe the song didnt do her any favours, but she has a quality voice!

Oh and shame on me for wanting to support a local Limerick girl Icky Thump:mad:

ludwit

There was no bass line, would have helped a bit

billy the squid

HEY! That's not right - Look at Mozart,

Well the Austrians haven't had a good run at Eurovision

the rest of your post I agree with though.

As for the text messages they were not unwanted, they were unsolicited and therefore illegal. I am not saying that she was even aware of them (I have my suspicions as to who was) but I will say it did influence my decision to vote for anyone but her.

e-mail spam is one thing, but mobile phone spam i consider to be quite invasive.

it looked very bad

supermommy

Why did I get a text message from this chick? I've never even heard of her.

because someone with a database full of local mobile numbers sent out a mass unsolicited text message prior to the Late Late show asking for people to support her.

That is bad form and, if anything, it was probably counter productive. Whoever had the bright idea of sending those messages didn't quite think it through. That's dreadful PR for the girl. It only fuels my contempt for this reality tv style rape of the music industry.

there are alot of local talents who arent given the opportunity she has been given.

all the publicity all the hype all the help help she was given after winning the little reality tv show a couple years back and what has she done since? i remember she was going for some audition in the west end but what has she done??

do you support all the local talents?

do you even go to gigs that local bands play at?
alot of us on here do go to local gigs. you may find that bakers(for independent bands) and dolans are pretty good at putting on gigs

can you even name one real local talent?

i admire the fact your standing by the fact you want her to do well and i hope all the local talenys do well but this is a national song competition and voting for a person because of where they are from is what the eurovision has turned into these days. its a disaster. you vote for the best talent. you dont vote for the place they are from. i refuse to vote for anyone who tries to convince me that they deserve my vote on the basis of where they are from and not what the represent(politics reference but in this case what song they represent.

Leanne is an undoubted talent but she is everything i dislike about music. she is a glorified wanna be pop princess. thats it. she sings what they tell her to sing. they doll her up the way they think people will like her. she has a good voice but i can probably give you a couplep hundred names in this city alone that have good voices and alot better talent when it comes to music.

now OP you tell me why Leanna Moore deserves my support?



on a seperate note i voted for the Foreigners(sorry cant remember where they where from):D i thought it was refreshing to see someone actually going for it that just wanted to perform and try to win. they where pretty good. i dont think we will get past the qualifiers again this year.

my prediction = big hype the week before it and we finish 3rd or 4tyh from bottom in the qualifying

dave 27

i think i saw her out last night after the club, she was wearing a red dress outside hmv..so hot, i think im going to stalk her

well said! shes a limerick 'celeb' thats about it, shes very good at local showbiz, has a brilliant voice, seems really really sound, and is a cracker.

But to truly make it even in the unoriginal pop chart industry, you have to have something a bit more special and unique. If I had received a text like that I would have went out of my way to vote for someone else, I am very very anti mobile spam, and sending out those texts pretty much sums up what her career is founded on, not saying it was her idea or intention, but its just a completely different level to someone looking for recognition through genuine talent and originality.

The winners out of this whole new 'vote for me' style of music competing are the sms companies.

billy the squid

also , poster campaigns for these "vote for me" competitions are in breach of section 19 of the Litter Pollution Act 1997. Only election posters and posters for meetings are exempt afaik.

I hope Reg Turner was paying attention over the past few weeks.

MissHoneyBun

Look, the only reason you vote for anything, anywhere is because you genuinely believe it to be the best contender possible, nothing more nothing less. And if you don't think that someone/thing is the best then you don't give them your vote, end of story.

This nonsense of voting for somebody because they share your address is absolutely ludicrous. It's a SONG contest, not a popularity contest and the very fact that this girl was pushing herself and her 'brand' as opposed to her song (which was absolutely dire) speaks volumes about her intentions.

Besides being averagely pretty, the girl has no real talent and thankfully the winner was worthy in the end. A winner who, in stark contrast to Leanne Moore, seems to actually have the interests of the country at heart for this competition, as opposed to feathering her own nest.

RonMexico

If you honestly think that Leanne is average looking, I'd like to know what neck of the woods you come from and also could you post a pic of yourself :pac:

I admit the song was crap, but so were the rest. At least she is presentable as opposed to the winner...who...well lets not go there.
