Here in Ireland we voted last night on the entry.
To be honest ALL the entries were utter *****. It also doesn't matter how serious you take the eurovision, the point is that 'song quality' rarely has anything to do with the voting which these days is mostly political; and is basicly the eastern block of europe voting for each other.
So we may as well make it a bit of fun.
Ireland may not even get through the qualifiers yet, therefore Dustin may not even represent Ireland in Eurovision.
We have in the past ran a 'Your a Star' competition which was like American Idol / X-Factor style competition, where the winner would go on to sing the Eurovision song. However we dropped that a couple years back after all the entrants basically were never heard of after Eurovision and it just became an emabarrasing gimmick.
So if taking it seriously has failed..... what the hell, take the piss and screw it.
