Tonight's the night we choose which song to send to Eurovision.
I have had a small interest on Molly Sterling's "Playing With Numbers" at 6/1, can never be overly confident how the voting goes in these.
Still reckon the Nikki Kavanagh favourite song is way too shouty, and the lyrics "I don't want to hear it" are very apt...
Molly, on the other hand, the first time I heard the song, I was amazed by the beauty of her voice, and her talent on the piano.
When I heard she is just 16 years old, I was staggered. It's a beautiful, mature piece, and she is out of her depth competing against these other efforts.
Unfortunately, as Noel Gallagher once said "kids don't know s--t from clay", and the kids may vote for the garbage songs tonight.
Nevertheless, it will be nice to see Molly perform tonight, and hope Ireland makes the right choice. ESC fans enjoy the night!

She might be talented, but if she is, anyone with a shred of a chance of a career should distance themselves from this competition. Blows any credibility 'an artist' might have out of the water. Think Rita Ora turned down the chance to represent the UK as she knew while she would get short-term exposure, no one worth knowing would want to work with her after.
Haven't heard this Molly girl, but if she has ability, she has been poorly advised. Only hope is that they put the entry down to youthful exuberance. Worst thing she could do is win this tonight.
Don't think he is entered up and he is English, but a guy who could go well at Eurovision is Nathan Carter. Old hand at performing and he ain't likely to want to be working with Jay-Z in the near future.

KEEN leader ..if you want an easy pick up to help the Cheltenham warchest...........the irish Eurovision final is on Friday night...all 5 entries are poor......my reliable contact says that rte will be pimping song 4, nikki Kavanagh...8/11 to 1/1 depending where you shop.....should be 1/100......I have had a punt
the second fav, you might be interested to know Wildman, is what an rte insider described to me as a "west brit, left footer, private school educated, 16 year old from puckane"...........that's gives you sense of the undertones in the background, just punt Kavanagh.
Rodger i had a punt on K.L.say so, just less then Evens for nikki Kavanagh g/luck

Roger aka Simon Cowell, puts up a selection before the event!
Guess there is a first time for everything!

Ridiculous that the background of the artists matters.
I'd laugh my ass off if RTE didn't get the one THEY wanted sent over.
That "Memories" song is truly awful, the lyrics are horrific, and the shouting chorus makes my ears bleed.

Yes, I am the Simon Cowell of Ireland, I keep it real.
Our last few entries have fell way short of the mark Rodger, i think we still hold the record with Eurovisions wins;but i cant help feeling the Father Ted Episode might be nearer the mark then we think. There is a young girl named Claudia Rose[ 17YEARS OLD] from Cork who is on the UK VOICE wonderful future ahead of her , have a look... https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=clauda+ros
cheers Frank will check that out. There's a bloke who won the German Voice called Andreas ****t who is unreal. The first time he came out to sing, I was like who is this bum....and then the magic started when he opened his mouth....
great audition from her there. Interesting to see where she goes next.
big money in scotland for this tune, its got a catchy chorus.
good luck if you play....im on BIG.

would just like to extend my best wishes to forumite kavvie whos cousin sings for a chance to represent Ireland tonight and who I believe has been heavily tipped up by a british tabloid,good luck
314 entrants are sitting at home wondering how Eddie Murphy's rap song beat them.....
1/2 Nikki.....skrayking is right. No melody....screeching.
I have to agree with you Rodger, over the top performence, ITS NO CERT
Molly's is the best song by a long way, the change in Kat's song is way off, as Phil Coulter says a train crash.
16 years old, Molly, outrageous.

must be fav now Rodger, i liked the sweeden girl Erika Selin as well
The Playing With Numbers song is miles better than the other garbage. Disgrace if it doesn't win.
Great variety on the show.A tranny a pavee a lesser and a singing sky.You get great value for the license fee in Donnybrook..
Rte love diversity as mentioned earlier by olddesperado. 2 of the singers aren't even Irish. You'd think it would be enough to have 1 non-Irish candidate but 2 is tearing the arse off it. They should have held the auditions over in warsaw or somewhere.
there's been a bit of controversy about Erika Selin's inclusion in the contest; the 23-year-old Swede has no connection to Ireland, and is singing a song written by Swedish songwriters. RTE have defended her inclusion, however,, saying "This is not a new rule – in the past we’ve had acts from Slovenia and Latvia take part in our Eurosong final, just as other countries have allowed Irish singers and songwriters enter their national finals. Indeed, Irish national Fionnuala Sherry won the competition for Norway a number of years ago."
Galway judge voted the rap song better than Molly's, and Molly's as the worst......ridiculous.

cheers Pre-Fat and frank. I have a good ear for music, it runs in the family. 
I have a good ear for music myself Roger ..its shaped like a Trumpet 
What's goin on here then a 1/100 shot turned over....oh dear....
Well Done Roger, top tipping. Didn't see it, nor have any interest in it, but you were bang on it seems.
Kavvie.....if it seems too good to be true
Kavvie.....if it seems too good to be true
Well done Roger , no interest in it myself and therefore no bet , a fine piece of analysis all the same ..All done without a phone call from FRANCE either .........Frank , ear shaped like a Trumpet .....
.....Frank , ear shaped like a Trumpet .....
I'd say keen leader must be wilddan's long lost son....the quality of Shiite he talks is after surpassing anybody on here ....and there's never ever an apology... No such thing as I got that wrong.... Like in this Eurovision garbage ....and like the rubbish he was telling people about prince de beauchenne ....and the nonsense about last years Eurovision semi final.... Some people have huge egos and absolutely no shame ....
paulie that post has hit the nail firmly on the head mate.....
Maybe so Paulie but i reckon he still in credit, that hurling bet was a forum all time great. Now look at dickie coming on here and having a pop at KL, now that my son is something you could not make up
In credit my hole...it's the dismissive attitude that I can't fathom out.... It's as if nobody else has a clue ....and on top of that most of the bets that are put up....people in Gamblers Anonymous would be too embarrassed to get involved... I mean to say... Song contests....who bets in that rubbish...
Pikey , you are making a bigger gobshyte of yourself by the second , who bets in that rubbish you ask , well who bets on that BASKETBALL SHYTE you were so proud to congratulate Snap , Pikey does , off ta bed with ya , and stop running good posters off ...
Roger,you said you liked the song,big price,in a small field,good shout.
Read the opening post Snap twas good,no bells or whistles either.
KL dismissed Road to Riches as a 999/1 shot in the Lexus, lot of guys would have laid him on the basis of his say so the recent stuff has not been good.
I'm aware that I myself have put up more losers on this thing than most. I'd have a regard for the man's opinion but as Ger Lyons would say, the form of late 'is what it is'.

Keen Leader........ never comes back on and says I got that wrong...... but if it won?????????. He is all talk
That's just not true,he doesn't come back at all.
The Each Way play was one of the most successful threads ever here yet he never returned for bouquets.
A few green eyes around here.

Not one of your best posts Easygold,.. Wildman is right,.. just shows how his word is followed when he puts up a bet at evens and your lucky to get 1.4 at the off...like the rest of us he gets it wrong.
There 180/1 for small money on the exchanges on Molly song , seems we wont be winning the Eurovision again this year.
Managed to gather up 400 skangers tonight.Cringeworthy stuff.
