    Perfectly serviceable song… but that video…

    Why do they have to insert the Gay into everything now?

    1. some old queen

      ‘They’ is probably not ‘gay’, ‘they’ more likely identify as a gender fluid insectionalist queer- or something.

      In other words- a big screaming Mary- more camp than a row of tents.

        Euro vision used to be harmless family entertainment.

        Now you need a masters in crazy to watch it – a thesis in loony tunes.

      Aural sodomy is a bit much. It’s a pop song for a pop contest. You’re not gonna get hard techno or black metal into the eurovision, like.

      Really, really middle-of-the-road. I’m sure it will not get anywhere, as with the rest of our most recent entries.

      Here fluff
      is there any rule stopping us entering a previous song again

      Like there was nothing stopping Usain Bolt competing in the same event again and again
      yeah I know

    Singing in that curious ‘ I’ve had a stroke so only half my mouth works – Ronan Keating’ style.

      A similar effect can also be achieved by the less-dramatic expedient of placing a very small, but very hot potato in the mouth.

    If listening to this song on loop whilst drinking martinis is gay, then who wants to be straight!!

    Well RTE certainly overhyped this one- a song that would have been fresh and new 10 years ago when P!nk, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne and even Paris Hilton were churning out the same song. We even entered something similar call Et Cetera in 2009 and it didn’t qualify. The video couldn’t be more cloying- as always RTE seems to think that the only people who watch Eurovision are gay people so they think playing lip service will get them votes- its a song contest and this is more of a music cut and paste. If anyone is actually interested in the contest and not just sneering- this year check out entries from Lithuania, Italy, Iceland and Germany. I think they are going to do well. If you want trash then Serbia are serving a Hurricane!!

    That truly is appalling. Embarrassing video, horrid American accent, and the whole lot buckling under the weight of petty virtue signalling. 2020 and this is the best we can do? Really? Hopefully the corona virus saves us from finishing up at the bottom of the pile, where it is truly destined.

    The Isreali entry this year is in 4 languages. So it can be boycotted multilingualy.

    1. bisted

      …ah don’t worry…despite all the appeals RTE and Marty Whelan defied the BDS efforts to get them to boycott the sham in Tel Aviv…now…coronovirus might produce a different outcome…and sure isn’t Marty in a vulnerable group…be kind karma…

    1. Chimpy

      Yep I can see that winning. Although I think it slowly gets weaker from about halfway through. Really like the beginning of it but then it goes very cabaret.

  7. millie vanilly strikes again

    I don’t like this very much. But the comments on the youtube vid seem nice and positive so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
