Eurovision Ireland 
I don’t like the Polish song, but can see/hear why others like it.
I didn’t like song for Belarus before, but he won me over on the night. I think the right 10 songs qualified. Austria (wow!) was the stand out, but thoroughly enjoyed Malta, & Switzerland too.
We (Ireland) didn’t get through and I’m not surprised. I was more impressed more by every other country in our semi. Only Georgia had worse staging, but I can’t knock the voice of their singer. If we came 15th, it’s all we deserved. The staging, the performance, the frock, the dancers – all so wrong.
I like the song on cd, but never live. Kasey was flat when she did Kiss Me in the previous selection so I can’t understand why she was Hazels first choice of singer for this yr. If Hazel was gonna choose a former eurosong hopeful, why not go for Una Gibney or Nikki Kavanagh or Aimee (can’t think of her last name) ?!
