This is about the Eurovision song contest though,I just wish them well in it for Ireland, I hope they win and sadly the argument will always be by those who don't like them to say they are talentless and not popular.
However, clearly the Irish people have just voted for them to represent them in the contest. Much to the great delight of those of us who do like them and realise they are young guys who are entertaining and doing their best.
Making a very lucrative and strong living out of it too.

The entire nation didn't vote on that show for
fuck sake. It recieved a very low viewer response and obviously an already established, kid friendly act would have gotten the votes. Lots or parents would have done it for their kids who were in the room watching.
Stop pretending Ireland has a love affair with the two. Out of everyone in Ireland or even out of those who even watched the show how many do you think voted? It was an utterly miniscule, insignifigant amount.
