Agree with Deban on this! They said that they prepared something with "Euphoria" effect and THIS is far away from that.
Omg absolutely loving Deban. The bad cop and good cop dynamic between William and Deban this year (which is much more pronounced than previous years) is so enjoyable. Had me in stitches. Intolerable song btw
Deban is the only one speaking sense
Also love Debans 🙄 throughout the video. Hillarious
Tommy Lam NO! Deban is speaking absolute trash!!!
@@ceiteacholachtnain Agree... you may not like a song but he's just hating here. He has to realize some people have different opinions than his
So glad that Deban is always bringing sense into these! Seriously Ed, how is this song better than Alcohol You????
He is drunk from Romanian song probably
Because it IS!
I definately preferred Ireland in 2020
Deban is just a mood
Wow you thought Deban was grumpy this year.. he's officially peaked in this video
Aleksander Pagels I live for grumpy Deban. And I honestly think he’s the voice of reason when it comes to these reviews.
My 4th place this year! Always love this type of song at Eurovision: just a package of fun and feelgoodness with a good message😂🇮🇪🇬🇧🎉
I’m irish and don’t usually like our songs but for the first time since 2015 that I actually really like our song. I think it’s catchy, fun and upbeat. Her voice is good and I’m sure the staging would have been nice. Would it have qualified? Doubtful but not impossible, definitely. She’s my number 11 overall and it’s an 8 from me
I agree with Deban! This year I love almost every entry - but Ireland could have done a lot better.
Eva Swingo it sounds like a child wrote the song
Agreed. As Deban said it’s outdated pop.
I agree.
I’m absolutely howling!!!! 😂 Man I love Deban! Whilst the others are giving their opinion one by one, you already know how he feels.....from the epic eye rolls, to the sighs, the yawns and the looking at the camera in complete and utter disgust, Deban is a meme! 😂
I’m referring to him lovingly as ‘Deban Downer’ from now on 🤣
Ps: I don’t think the song is offensive in any way. It’s just juvenile sounding at times and incredibly shouty. I can understand the sound if Jedward had been put forward to sing it but I think Lesley deserved much better.
I'm with Deban again. It sounds dated. I am a proud supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, but I felt nothing with this song. With other songs on a similar theme, I have felt moved, but with this song, nothing :(
Its in my top 5 this year, really love it
Good review! If only Deban could contact RTE for us as they won’t listen to the fans and they don’t want to win eurovision again! I really wish whoever said it was banger, didn’t say it.. it went so public and it got such a bad wrap, like my country would bring a euphoria 2 🤪 the late late show is really bad platform for show casing Irish songs - don’t ever watch it. Thank you William and all! Deban is so funny 🤣
mark bennis RTE is the most dated channel, it’s no wonder we’re awful every year 🙄
I think Ireland took a step in the right direction! It’s fun and upbeat and really anthemic. I think if Lesley comes back next year (hopefully she does) she’ll have an even bigger bop with a modern sound! This is such a good entry though 🇮🇪
Deban is so done with ESC 2020😂
I think I have not seen Deban in such a bad mood in any previous seasons 😂 2020 is my personal favourite year actually soooo.... 😆
Hahah I'm living for this video especially for Deban 😂😂❤️❤️
Give some love to Queen Deban! He just got bullied! Yes, I have to admit that when he's dissing on a song I love, he sounds too bitter and annoying BUT, when he's pointing out the flaws of a mediocrity that everyone else is inexplicably worshipping, his voice sounds like a hymn from heaven. Like " go girl, speak it out ,finally someone who is not deaf" . Generally, I prefer seeing someone with loud, raw or even edgy oppinions even if I disagree with many of them. Someone who is always too polite and kind of likes everything is not only unfair but also boring. Let your passion shine, Deban! Agreeing AND disagreeing with you are both fun.
Can someone tell me who the person ‘Meowskitty’ is? The person deban referred to? I’m curious now 😂
One of the original Wiwibloggers
Agree with Ed!
ed seriously has a weird music taste: giving roxen 3.5 and lesley 8.5???? not hating on ireland song cause it’s good but this he keeps suprising me with his rather strange scores
Part of me thinks he does it deliberately just to stand out from everyone else. Or he could just have a terrible taste in music 😂 but hey each to their own 🤷🏻♂️
completely agree with him. Love Ireland, but Romania is actually boring.
It's uplifting and feelgood, bit dated but in a good way, it's nostalgic. The only problem is that is too loud and shouty at times. 🇮🇪 gets a 6.5
This is a bop, a bit dated, but still a bop. I still dance to I Kissed a Girl, and this year we don't have nothing like this. This is a 7.5 for me
I love Deban - always speaks sense and gets it right whilst making me laugh always. I think it's a 5 / 5.5 for me
Yay Suzanne in a wiwi jury video ❤
ESC FanForever ❤️❤️
Why can't y'all realize Deban is speaking the truth??? Is he the only one with ears?
He was obsessed with Telemoveis/Portugal last year, yet was shocked it did not qualify. It ended 15th place in semi-final 1 So no he does not always speak the truth. 2020 weakest year of all time? I also disagree with that statement.
@@Sk88p Where did I say "always"?
I have really mixed feelings about this song because on the one hand it's quite dated and shouty, but on the other hand it's also uplifting and could have really made an impact on stage especially if placed between ballads. It was a borderline qualifier for me, 6/10
Yous say that it may have not made the final because it was in such a strong semi, but in 2018 you ranked ireland a 2.5 and it still qualified🤷🏼♂️
Lesley roys vocals are actually very powerful! She just had a bad night on the late late, she did great in the eurovision home concert🇮🇪
Deben is right again and again and again and again...😊😊😊
I love Deban 😅❤
I'm Irish and I couldn't agree with Deban any more
9.5 it might be crazy to give it a high score but I love this song it's feel good and fun and yes I do think it would of qualified for the final so Well Done Ireland!
BTW have you listened to some of Duncun's other originals like 'The Woods' or 'Tomorrow'?
At last we the Irish have the best song in years and I believe that Ireland will and can hold the 2022 Eurovision BECAUSE We have the best Eurovision song for years ❤️
Ireland has a great sound at the moment. A kind of singer songwriter vibe, a sort of raw not over produced sound. I want to see that next year.
Nostalgic 2009! Uplifting cheerful song.
Ireland - 7
1. Romania
2. Israel
3. Russia
4. Serbia
5. Italy
6. Australia
7. Belgium
8. Ireland
9. Cyprus
10. Portugal
11. North Macedonia
12. Moldova
13. Belarus
I’ll give it a 6.5. It’s fun and retro, and I think it could have been strong live with the right staging. I do think it could have snuck into the final if one or more of the “bigger” acts choked on stage.
P.S. I love seeing Edd back in action, and Suzanne getting more involved!
Agree with Deban. Its really bad
I love Deban 🙏🏻
Best entry since 2014 🎉🇮🇪 Ireland has been known to be robbed in recent Eurovision years. This most certainly wouldn’t have been robbed 😊 So happy to see Ireland making moves in the right direction. Really hope to see Lesley back next year with an even bigger bop 🎶🤞
Jamie Conroy 2014 was so meh and overrated, Ryan O’Shaughnessy was the best entry, Lesley Roy has a decent song although it would of struggle to qualify due to it was in the 1st half of the 1st semifinal
Nathan Cassidy yeah but atleast now there’ll be a clean slate and hopefully Ireland will get the second half of the 1st semi final as most qualifiers come from this section. I loved 2010,2011,2012,2013,2014,2015,2018 and 2020 I didn’t like 2016,2017 or 2019
Jamie Conroy I liked 2011,2012 2015, I loved 2013(Don’t get me started with the final result !!!) and 2018 (favorite song ever in music) and I really liked 2016 but sadly Nicki didn’t performed great and it was poor staging and I also liked 2017 god Brendan Murray should of qualifying that year :,(, Ryan is my inspiration I’ve been the biggest fan since his voice audition and together is a masterpiece
Nathan Cassidy yeah I loved 2018 it’s really been my breakthrough to loving Eurovision, I’ve been watching since 2010 but 2018 was really the start for my love of ESC. I was very young watching Ireland qualifying from 2010-2013 and I don’t really remember the competitions but I do remember being so sad from 2014-2017 watching Ireland fail for so long and then...2018 came along and I was so happy but then we sent the sham of a song that was 22. Sarah was such a good singer and they gave her THAT to sing??? They should’ve picked a song like 2020 for her and she would’ve smashed it in the Grand Final. Ireland 2020 is my favourite Eurovision song of all time in ESC. The lyrics really can be related to by everyone and people (like Deban in the last video) that say they don’t like it aren’t getting the full meaning from the song.
A Bewitched album track from 1998 :/
6.03 damn everyone seems like not feeling it at all while I prefer this to 38 other songs from this year lol
Yes Ireland. I love this song 7 /10. Not a surprise Ireland is my favorite country. Always on my final since 2009. I just love Ireland in Eurovision. By a French. And yes I love Ireland 2019.
I agree with Deban.
11:21 who did Deban talk about? Meow scitty?
I give it 10/10 because I'm Irish
9/10 from me. Fun and nostalgic song!
When Deban hated on this and loved Cicciolina I knew he was willing to scream the uncomfortable truth. Serve that T hunny 😂
Yes 8.5!
Agree with Deban! Amen! 😆
I'm Irish. I agree with Deban. It doesnt do anything for me. 2009 was better. It's not our worst of the decade but it is down there.
Waw Deban that was rude😂
I think saying it's a 8.5 but it might not have qualified is not a contradiction. I sometimes say stuff like "It's such a cool song but please don't listen to it, you won't like it" to my friends. Just because I like it doesn't mean I expect many others to like it, too.
Sorry Deban but I disagree. Ireland did a really good job. You have to stay polite. you have to accept people have an other opinion. You're really being negative this year. This is not the weakest year at all! It's better than revamp Alcohol You. It's pure fun. You don't have to think about it too much when it's on, you just have to dance and have fun. It doesn't HAVE to be serious. What's wrong with dated? Dated doesn't mean bad! I don't get the issue there at all! I agree with William and Ed here. My 6TH. Underrated AF 9/10
Deban is being OTT again, but yes it is dated. I do give it a 7 though. I don't think it would have qualified.
6.5/10 - My #12 this year
When it first came out I was super excited but it kinda stop when I listened to the live performance 😅
But I still like it, as Edd said it takes us back to good old times 10 years ago and it feels great.
I think it would have struggle to qualify maybe 11th or 12th of their semi (would have qualify if in SF2) Hopefully Lesley will come back next year 🤞🏼
Deban is so angry atm 😂
Saiying that this is the weakest contest ever I mean... 🙈🙈
Wow Deban was so harsh! To Edd especially. Anyway I welcome different opinions.
Seriously Deban come on
I really like that song 😉
Deban needs some passion fruit
gatodescabelado 🤣
This started in my top 5 but it really dropped because it is dated.. But I still like the song so I give it a 6.5/10
I love deban here - but i totally disagree with him, i think this would have done better than maps
Don’t really see how this song is “A Banger” honestly. Yet again Deban is the voice of reason.
Devin is so negitive but I totally agree with him
Honestly it's been nearly 9 years since ireland made the top 10 Pick A BETTER song
I like the song, but agree is this the best Ireland can do? for sure not. Please do something modern next year.
I'm here for Queen Deban's opinion. I 💯 agree that this is the weakest year for Eurovision.
And i just want to say that Edd is amazing. ❤
I can't even with Deben I'm so angry with him right now. It's a 9 from me it would have made the final and finished higher than Jedward did in 2012.
Never
Why would you be angry at someone for having a different opinion about a song? :) This is what makes Eurovision more colourful, that people like different entries.
@@JakubHalat I'm angry because I disagree with him so deeply.
I’m sorry but absolutely no chance would this have gotten higher than jedward and I was not a fan of jedward at all
Anybody saying Ireland could have done better? WHERE!!?? This song is f###ing amazing like how dare anyone call this song a flop WAKE UP PEOPLE ireland is Back and yall are scared and that’s just the problem #watchout
My Score: 6.5/10
3/10 for me... Ireland can do much better than this
heeeeeeeeeeey. Blonde Katy Perry.
I mean it. This could easily be hidden in the middle of *googles Katy Perry albums*. This is a nice happy little song
Deban just because you call it weak doesn’t make it weak. A 4 is just rude and you seem to have some problem with Lesleys song for some reason. It is not bad. Bulgaria’s has a message too. If Ireland sent that song you would’ve said the same thing and you would’ve loved Bulgaria. Do you can have your own opinion but by no means was it the weakest in 15 years 😂😭 that statement was actually the funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time 🤣
There’s a lot of songs under this one for example:
Israel’s song is good but it goes nowhere
The Big 5 is one of the worst in recent years in my opinion
Slovenia is just not good
The Netherlands is good but it wouldn’t do great as it’s in the Netherlands and countries in their own never do well
Belarus is a knock-off 2019
Cyprus is another electro pop sound song like the last 2 but it sounds cheaper
Sweden sounds like always a big song with cheap staging and white lights
Norway is just a big song, she has an excellent voice but a better song was needed
There are some clear ARTISTS this year:
Latvia 🔥 best since 2015
Lithuania 🔥 best entry from them in my opinion
Ireland 🔥 best entry in recent years (and yeah there would’ve been good staging 😒😏)
Malta 👌 soulful.
Bulgaria...we all know she would’ve won and she deserved it 💯
I only disliked this video because of Deban's absolute rubbish coming out of his mouth, Our entry this year was actually better than ever. I'M SO ANGRY!!!!
No it wasn't and it had 0 chance of qualifying.
Fed up with my country and these weak ok songs we can do much better. I want someone that will be a sure qualifier even if it does not do well
For some reason, this reminds me of Meghan Trainor songs.
It's not a winner but the song is up beat a happy song but here is the issue Deban judges based on looks he was all over Bilal, Luca, Eleni, Tamta if you ain't a color singer, got the looks, body you ain't in Deban good side. He is so biased had an eye looking guy sang this song he will be all over him
Difference being all of those artists had current and good quality songs.
It’s really not that good, at all
I’m with Deban. I’m tuning out too. I don’t have a problem with the message but the song is awful. I rank this at 41, the worst song in the competition. Dreadful video too.
Lmao? The weakest Eurovision year of all-time? WTF So many amazing songs
FAAAR AWAY from Euphoria ....🤷♂️
4/10
OMG Edd looks amazing here
