    I really hope Jedward pull it off tonight. I don't think them performing last will be too much of a disadvantage because alot of the acts like greece and azerbaijan who were last got through on tuesday night.

    Aaaahh, so nervous yet so frickin excited. Can't imagine how Marty feels. And omg - its eurovision is on at half 7 before the contest (this is a seperate programme, right?). I just love eurovision shows :D

    I would have thought being on last is a good thing :confused: people remember the last act better than the first and it's one catchy song! Go on Jedward bring it home again for the first time in 15 years!!!:D

    I didn't watch the X Factor, so I'm not fully sure what to expect with Jedward... Sounds like it'll be interesting either way!

    I'm very doubtful that Jedward will even make it through tonight

    Why do you think that? I think they'll def get through tonight, whether they'll actually win the entire thing is a different story!

    We can but hope. With the Brits out of the equation surely no other European nation would actually consider them worth voting for... Come back Donna and Joe, all is forgiven.

    Anyone know at around what exact time they are on?

    I know they are last.

    Working! ;(

    Also, they are on last, aren't they? That doesn't really leave a lot of voting time.

    Then again, they have gotten a lot of coverage. :\

    At a guess, if they're last, I'd say about half 9. =D

    I'd have to agree.. it just doesn't scream Eurovision-winner to me, it's average to good, but there's a lot of good songs in the semi-final tonight. A lot of it's going to depend on the camera angles they get, I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,818 ✭✭✭DebDynamite


    Just watched the Mickey Harte song on YouTube. It really was a good song, performed very well by Mickey. My favourite song by Ireland in a long time. Until Jedward of course tongue.gif

    Omg!! It's Jedward :O :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,668 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    They're not going to win. But they could end up in the top 15.

    Maybe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,553 ✭✭✭soccymonster


    It depends on how they do tonight. Their rehearsals sounded and look really good. But then again, thats with an empty arena. Hopefully not much will change tonight :) so excited and they're so funny on omg it's jedward eurovision now on RTE.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,818 ✭✭✭DebDynamite


    Aw, poor John's in bits!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,668 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    "I said it from the start, and I'll still say it if they come last. I saw those guys perform and said "those guys are going to win"

    Ah Tubs :o

    I wonder if they thought up the last part with Marty Whelan themselves, it sounded a bit too good for them to have some up with themselves, what do you think?

    I'd say they'll sound better with a full audience. They've also got the last spot on the running order which is a plus imo.

    It really did sound like Marty alright, apart from the English accent!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,727 ✭✭✭reallyrose


    I turned it over to hear one of them say
    "omg, like, actually, really"

    So I turned the sound off again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,553 ✭✭✭soccymonster


    Well lads :) Let's do this!! Gwan Jedward :D

    Right, Lads and Ladies, you now have the words so there is no excuse for not singing along :D
    JEDWARD - Lipstick lyrics

    You say you’re on it but you just don’t know
    You’re spending money like you’re on death row
    You must be mis-educated
    By all the guys that you dated
    You think I’ll take the bait but I don’t think so

    Ohhhh
    Am I headed for a car crash?
    Ohhhh
    Im just about to meet my match, she takes the
    Ohhhh
    I’m about to fall in head first
    Sisters let me tell you how it works

    HEY!

    (CHORUS)
    She’s got her lipstick on
    Here I come, da da dum
    She’s got her lipstick on
    Hit and run, then I’m gone
    Check my collar, collar, hey, hey, ey
    Check my collar, collar, hey, hey, ey

    Oooohh, Oooohh

    You look at me and I got you in mind
    I come on over see what I could find
    No appetite for delusion
    I could’ve been what I’m losin’
    You’re saying yes when it is no, no, no, no

    Ohhhh
    Am I headed for a car crash?
    Ohhhh
    Is this about to be my next, she takes the
    Ohhhh
    I’m about to fall in head first
    Sisters let me tell you how it works

    (CHORUS x2)

    It’s not that I don’t wanna play (play, play)
    And then I didn’t look your way (way, way)
    It’s not like every girl’s the same (same, same)
    You gotta know just how to treat this miss
    Or she will be dismissed

    Heyyyyy

    (CHORUS x2)

    Here I come
    Here I come
    dum da dum da dum da dum
    (x2)

    Hit and run
    Hit and run
    dum da dum da dum da dum

    Then I’m gone
    Then I’m gone
    Gone, gone, gone, gone
