Ireland used be my favourite country in this contest, but in recent years Ireland has become extremely boring. Again this year we will be served an Irish ballad performed by one of the islands most popular folkgroups Dervish.
Dervish will sing They can’t stop the spring and the lyrics is about how Europe come together in one stage and no one can stop us from singing bla bla bla. I wonder have this country completely lost it? Why on earth can they never send anything else, 4 songs like this won the Eurovision in the 90’s and I do not think we are ready for another victory quite yet.
The band does a great performance on the stage and presents the song in the best possible way, so you can’t complain on that. The song itself is the problem it’s very correct, very boring.
My grade: 1
