Fingers crossed for John & Edward!!

umm no flyer rofl
GO INDUSTRY ITS SIMPLE POP/BALLADRY IRELAND NEEDS
"burn" is a scarily amazing song

I can say yes!! It's really good! And they are really good! (could the black-haired guy be the one who sung "Double cross my heart" in the 2008 Irish NF?)

But also forgot to mention i'd love to see The Script on ESC!!

yeah it is donal skehan

EXACTLY. I bought their album a week ago or so and haven't stopped listening to it since, its actually superb. They're the only artist(s) from Ireland that I actually listen to, and I know they would never do ESC, but they're still amazing nonetheless.

PLEASE say you're joking, they're SHITE. End of. Btw if they represent Ireland they're quite obv gonna fail miserably because:
a) They're shite.
b) They can't sing.
c) They're shite.

So please NO JOHN AND EDWARD.

WOW i had heard he was in a band , but it was a boyband
Maybe the girls are transexuals?

I bought their album months ago , and i even used their songs for our school movie
Best tracks : We cry , Before the worst , Talk you down , The Man Who Can't Be Moved , Breakeven , The End Where I Begin , Fall for anything , If You See Kay , I'm yours , Anybody There All except for 1
They are a combination of Beatles with U2 and Take That to my ears , so success is secure!

PS : They are another irish act greek teens don't stop listening to , and radios so play their songs

Are you thinking of the boyband StreetWize, also including Jonathan Fagerlund

OMG yes ! Thanks!
