Eurovision monday

Mar 15, 2010 15:11

This is Ireland's entry for this year.

Now, you would think we really really really could not afford to win this year, but -
Here they come and dust out Niamh Kavanagh, who won it already in 93. This gives me pause. Coupled with the government's massive efforts right now to boost tourism (which has gone down the proverbial drain and rightly so - there's only so much piss you can take out of foreigners after all before they cop on to the fact you are an overpriced overwet and overboring country) - anyway, coupled with this fact, I am inclined to think we are going for the win this year.

The song below is typical eurovision ballad fare which bores me to tears*, but the woman can truly sing, has won it before, and the ingredients are there to woo continental romantics.
Hmmmm. There's even the little flutey bit required to get 12's, though worryingly Johnny Logan is not in the line-up.

*the type of crap Ran thinks is brilliant.

But, Niamh, PLEASE DO SOMETHING WITH THAT NIGHTIE YOU'RE WEARING, AND FIX THE UNIBROW, WOMAN.
