๐Ÿ†• Last Friday, Ireland's #Eurovision final took place and they had a choice between celtic tracks, a techno banger and Samantha Mumba... so, naturally, they picked a Norwegian instead. And I'm kind of obsessed.

So, Ireland has voted: Emmy from Norway will represent the Emerald Isle in Basel this year with 'Laika Party'

Okay, this is Europop and tbh I like it but I think it's good that they address Kaleen's poor result.
I can also say that I really didn't think Eurosong was bad this year. You can definitely tell Bambie Thug's influence.

Okay, I just learnt that this is actually Emmy who took part in the Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix in 2021 and I really liked her song back then.

NIYL has done a great job, the song has some good moments, but overall it's a bit flat imo. With a revamp, however, it really has potential.

I've never heard of Samantha Mumba so she doesn't get any bonus points for her name. Unfortunately, this is the weakest song of the night for me so far. I did like the idea of the Last Supper-like staging though but I've already forgotten the song as I'm writing this.

Worst song so far

So far I'm surprised by the quality of the songs at this year's Eurosong. So far, I don't think there was a bad one and there's a lot of variety too. Reylta definitely has potential! Wins the jury for sure.

The song is actually quite cool, but somehow it seems as if she is barely singing herself and only the backing vocals are playing? Idk ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

I have the feeling that Ireland has really worked on the sound mix. ๐Ÿคฏ
The first candidate is Adgy, who already participated in Eurosong 2023 and what can I say? I like the song, nice vibe but I guess it's not really competitive. Let's see what else comes.
