    She sang really well. I need to hear a song a few times before I know if I like it or not...that's the 2nd time I've heard that. I think it's class!:) Go on Niamh ya good thing!

    She did a great job. Fair play to her.

    First time hearing it. Niamh's got a good voice but IMO it's not a great song,
    Audience seemed to react well though :confused:

    That was really good - fair play to her. Finally feel like we're in the running again. I've heard it 5 or 6 times before so I was able to hum along - thought it was great - esp the little key change there at the end.

    Go Niamh!

    I've just heard that Niamh has escaped through the roof of the auditorium and is floating somewhere above Oslo.

    Oh the humanity!

    Well, I have the tremendous bet of 1 not to qualify. It's a crappy song, not sung powerfully enough (but that's the fault of the song). First verse starts a bit abruptly too.

    As usual putting Linda Martin being on the panel means we will do shíte I'd say - maybe if Niamh being a previous winner and not doing well has any consequences, it'll be that RTÉ will finally take Linda out the back and shoot her off the panel. Look at youtube theres a pile of really decent entries that never even got to the final on the Late Late, including 1 crowd who've entered every year since about 2001 with what I think are better songs.
    I was hoping that would be the case as the 5 entrants were cack. There was a bit of buddy buddy politics going on there id say

    Our entry is brutal, totally dull and devoid of life.

    The German girl would get it tight.

    Still beats watching some tone-deaf dolly-bird being used as a human dancing-pole for a troupe of prancing homersexuals.

    Has anyone noticed that the male singers in the competition this year have the biggest egos. I mean seriously, they're like a hundred times worse than Bono.

    Sure Chiara from Malta in 2006 or so was a curvy lady, and she came second.
