    Clearly? You're off your head mate.

    If you think I was trying compare the talent of Kodaline and JJ72 to Voice of Ireland contestants, than you're the one that's missed the point. I honestly don't think you're reading what I'm saying. No Irish radio station gave a ****e about Kodaline until the BBC playlisted them. How does that sound like I'm comparing talents. You're hearing what you want to hear. :rolleyes:

    The figures speak for themselves

    I have given you several examples of Reality Show contestants who have done well in the charts without significant airplay. If you really think JJ72 and Kodaline are comparable to the poor cover versions performed by the Voice of Ireland then you really are missing the point.

    Ironically enough, Kodaline came from Your a Star. Probably the only act that has had success from an Irish show.

    It's mostly their own work that paid off for them, it wasn't that show that did it for them anyway.

    Kodaline had an Irish number one back in 2007 when they were known as 21 Demands, long before the UK heard of them.

    The finalists lack of radio play has nothing to do with them being Irish. It's simply to do with them coming from a crap reality talent show and releasing covers that are far inferior to the originals.

    This proves how irrelevant the Voice of Ireland programme is.
    ‘Voice of Ireland’ winner fails to chart in Top 30 chart week after victory


    THE Winner of this year’s ‘Voice of Ireland’, Keith Hanley, has failed to chart in the top 30 with his winner’s single.

    The competition is good t.v. and nothing else.
    Not to be taken seriously.

    I think that's what it boils down to in the end. Something to fill RTEs schedule for a few months.

    Who would seriously buy Keith's single Baggin, in fairness it was pure sh*te

    Own up now if you did buy it, we can try and see if ye can get a refund :P

    Delighted to hear Kelly had her baby. Very best wishes to her and her oh.

    It's in the Herald too:

    *sigh* :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    I can't help but make comparisons to the UK version again - the BBC is far more likely to bring back Eldorado than it is to commission a spin-off of this sort...

    No disrespect intended towards Kelly, BTW.

    Very sad to read about the sudden passing of Andrew Mann at such a young age . Have heard him sing acoustic a good few times and he was very talented.

    RIP.
