What is Eurosong?
Eurosong is the Irish national selection for Eurovision. The selection show often takes place on Ireland’s Friday night chat show “The Late Late Show”. It first started selecting Ireland’s Eurovision representative in 2006. In 2016 Ireland went internal with their Eurovision selection. In 2022 Eurosong returned as the selection method for Eurovision in Ireland.
Ireland’s Eurovision Journey
In 1965, Ireland made their debut in the Eurovision Song Contest with Butch Moore and the song “Walking the Streets in the Rain”, which managed to place 6th. Since their debut, Ireland has participated 57 times (making the Grand Final 46 times), and has won the competition seven times, which is currently tied for the record of most wins.
Ireland’s latest Eurovision participation saw them being represented by Bambie Thug, with their song “Doomsday Blue”. They placed 6th in the Grand Final, receiving 278 points in total, 138 of which were from televoters and 142 were from the national juries. This is Ireland’s best result in the 21st century.
