Ireland will participate for the first time in 2015 Junior Eurovision Song Contest. The broadcaster will be TG4 (Teilifís na Gaeilge).
The song will be performed in the Irish Gaelic language. Auditions will take place around Ireland and information can be found about this on the TG4 official website.
The 2015 Junior Eurovision Song Contest host nation will be confirmed on 25 March.
We are getting closer to the end and song 50 is IRELAND 2006, EVERY SONG IS A CRY FOR LOVE by BRIAN KENNEDY. I absolutely love this song. The Afrikaans cover is done by JASMYN & BRANDON OCTOBER.
To coincide with St Patrick’s Day, ESC Covers is launching the Good Luck message prepared by Greg Murphy for Ireland. Let’s hope the numbers fall into place for Molly in Vienna.
Next up is IRELAND and how can be not look at the impact JEDWARD caused? Their 2011 song LIPSTICK has been chosen and the Afrikaans cover is by ANDRE HUYSAMEN
I read on another website that one of the three members of SHEEBA, who sang for Ireland at the 1981 Eurovision with HOROSCOPES has retired. She is Maxi (Irene McCoubrey). Here is the cover of another Sheeba single COMING TO YOU. Interesting is that this song was composed by Dutch composers Peter van Asten and Richard de Bois who write the 1984 Dutch entry IK HOU VAN JOU for Maribelle.
