    Is it a great song or is it not? I remember it so well because a GF loved it back then! :)

    It was probably written before the Eurovision so is slightly older I'd say.

    I thought this thread was about some children on the dole.

    By the standards of Eurovision, it's pretty good.

    It's undoubtedly M.O.R. sort of stuff, but the melody's strong and the sentiment resonates with people.

    Better than most all the crud that's followed it for sure.

    Wasn't that great - the rest of the songs must have been really shíte.
    Just as well Riverdance took the accolades.

    The late late show will have to a special programme dedicated to them now, it's been at least two weeks since they last done that.

    I never liked it. It is dull and boring and goes on about nothing.

    You could say that about most songs though?
