Ireland sends Nicky Byrne to "burn" Stockholm with Sunlight

This entry has the high possibility to qualify, after two consecutive year for Ireland to not qualify to the grand final. Its an upbeat entry sung by the former member Westlife, Nicky Byrne. This isn't Nicky Byrne's first appearance in Eurovision as he had appeared in 2013, 2014 and 2015 as Ireland's spokesperson which means that, he is the one who had been reading out the points. Maybe, he would emerge to the grand final and get points from the spokesperson as I am currently in love with it.

The song itself if amazing and I really love the beat, by that I mean that I really love the wonderful beat of the song. I must say that this is indeed a good floor filler in a party and maybe the crowd would dance, when he sings in the sunlight. His vocals are fine in the studio but it would be better, if the vocals are stronger in the live so that it could increase the chance for it to qualify. For the performance, I believe that it would be better for it to look and feel energetic, in order for it to not be forgetten. Maybe he should perform like Jedward which is indeed enthusiastic and Nicky Byrne might do a great job on stage.

The songs in 2014 and 2015 was also amazing, unfortunately it was a really tight competition in 2014 albeit we felt our heartbeat in the wondrous live performance and it should have qualified in my opinion and the live version was much better than the studio one. 2015 was great too, unfortunately Molly wasn't really making us play with numbers to make us vote as her performance was forgettable. I hope that this would do a great job in Stockholm and Nicky Byrne could give Ireland the sunlight, so that they could qualify.

I rated this song an 8/10 at the moment and good luck to Nicky Byrne, who would be flying the Irish flag in The Sony Ericsson Globe!!!

Turkey "returns"to Eurovision and San Marino announces ther delegation

A dream of many Eurovision fans had came true, as Turkey had announced their return to Eurovision. They are not returning as Turkey but they are returning indirectly as San Marino, would send the Turkish singer, Serhat, to Stockholm. This might be different from the past few years this micro country, had been importing their entries from Italy since their debut in 2008, unfortunately San Marino would not be sending anything Italian anymore.

This country had participated in the contest for six times with the best result of landing in the 24th position of the grand final back in 2013 and special credits goes to Valentina Monetta, who had already became San Marino's hero. This is also not the first time for San Marino to not send Italian singers, as they sent Russian singer, Kamilla Ismailova, to the 2015 Junior Eurovision Song Contest. I must say that I am indeed dissapointed, as I really want to see Valentina Monetta back in the contest or maybe, San Marino's 2014 Junior Eurovision delegation in the adult contest, like their band member Anita Simoncini, who sung the 'Chain Of Lights' in Vienna bac in 2015, with the 2013 Junior Eurovision delegatiom, Michele Perniola.

I don't have much to say about this but I hope that San Marino could do well and it is indeed a great thing to know, that Turkey is taking part. I must say that I didn't predicted any Turkish singers to fly the San Marinese flag but things can't go the way I want to, so who knows that San Marino might do well. Well, good luck Serhat and see you in Stockholm!!!
