Bambie Thug - Zombie (The Cranberries cover) | Ireland 🇮🇪 |  

The significance of Bambie choosing to cover this song will not be lost on anyone in Ireland or the uk, or many places outside them. It’s just about the most impactful call for peace an Irish person can give, and they’ve done it as well as anyone ever has. Haunting, beautiful, and necessary in the current climate. Thank you Bambie, vote Ireland 🇮🇪

Fun fact: the flower they’re crying over is Scilla hyacinthoides, which is native to the Mediterranean coast of the Middle East.

Ireland is the true dark horse of this year 🎉

The markings on their face are from an ancient Irish alphabet called Ogham, and it spells out CEASEFIRE.

I’m so sick of people trying to copy Dolores while covering this song! Bambie managed NOT to do this! Thanks for having your own personality ❤

Everyday I grow more and more obsessed with Bambie Thug CROWN THE WITCH! 🇮🇪🖤

The fact she decided to cover this song, in this moment, with such a haunting yet pure rendition is SO meaningful. Bambie is such a great artist

Unexpected, but somehow makes so much sense.

Ladies and gentleman, Ireland's anthem 🇮🇪

Being Goth for decades, it's impossible not to burst into tears of endless joy when watching this masterpiece of dark art: I couldn't be represented in a more beautiful, in a more artistic, in a more mesmerizing way!🖤✨️🌙🕯It feels like magic that alternatively minded people like us - souls who are prone to love mysticism, ethereal gloom, spiritual depth and contemplative melancholy - have a voice singing and speaking for them on the biggest stage of the world! All sorts of generic pop have never touched our hearts, hence we oftentimes stayed away from the competition, but this journey together with Bambie is the most wonderful experience I can imagine and this once-in-a-lifetime artist is rendering me speechless over and over again!🖤✨️ I mean, just look at these enchanting aesthetics: This is Trad Goth par excellence, a feast for the eyes, beautifully seductive darkness luring through the screen, shots from another world and clothing I would instantly wear for the rest of my life, and we shall not forget about their make-up which is not only on point but an additional layer of art on top of this immaculate cover!🌙 To release a cover of "Zombie" right before Semifinal 1 is a stroke of genius - not only for an Irish representative and considering that this is THE Irish anthem, but also because we need a voice standing against injustice more than ever before! In sorrowful times like these, where people are being eradicated and the sorrow isn't even seen by many, music can sometimes be the strongest statement to open hearts and eyes. Social criticism has always been something very close to my heart, and I'm insanely proud of Bambie expressing what needs to be addressed and for showing true character and authenticity! And speaking of music, Bambie couldn't have covered this legendary hymn in a more beautiful way: Putting their own stamp on it, filling the melodies with even more darkness and an ethereal ambience, but still paying tribute to the original in the most honouring and respectful way. If you need any more proof for the fact that Ireland is coming for qualification tomorrow and for the WIN in the grand final, just watch this otherworldly masterpiece as well as their show-stopping Eurovision performance! And then don't forget to crown the witch, because a boundary-breaking, hard-working and transcendentally creative artist like this deserves victory and love from all over the world!🇮🇪🧙‍♀️👑🌙✨️🖤

My Eurovision winner covering my fav song of all time😍

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. Such a great hommage to this iconic song and band. Dolores O'Riordan would be so proud to see Ireland's newer blood carry this lovely Irish legacy onwards. Bambie is like a treasure box full of surprises.

Would be more impactful if anyone at Eurovision this year actually listened to the lyrics

Bambie deserves to be in the top 5 in the grand final! Let's vote Ireland!🖤

Thank you bambie for being the best representative we've had in a very long time. Such a beautifully haunting cover for a song that means soo much to us. A stark reminder of how mindless voilence never solves anything. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. Go Bambie! 🇮🇪❤

Bambie Thug, thank you for representing our pagan history with such intensity and beauty. Sincerely, the people of Ireland. 🇮🇪 🎶

Bambi can do no wrong 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Bambie Thug are simply amazing. This is the artist who has surprised me the most this year and I definitely now want to check their other music. Go Bambie you deserve that qualification.

Bambie can you release this on streaming platforms it’s incredible 😭😍

Bambie Thug is an icon. Their style, their music, their passion, it's all so infectious I love it. Their star is on the rise and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for them.

Bambie, you are going to do us so proud. As a fellow Corkonian, we love you regardless what happens 👑

Zombie is a perfect song that should never be covered by anyone. Is what I used to think until I heard this. Perfect cover of a perfect song.

Türkiyeden selamlar ülkem eurovisona katılmıyor ama eurovison asla bırakamıyorum.farklı şeyler görmeye bayılıyorum ve bambie sen beni kelimenin tek anlamıyla büyüledin o kadar harika ve sıradışı sanatçısın ki insanların kendilerine koydukları duvarları yıktın umarım çok başarılı bir sanatçı olursun . Artık sıkı bi hayranın var bambie :)

I think we can all agree Bambie has got talent.

😮 I am speechless... This is so unique! 😮

Eurovision winner 2024, no matter the result 👸🏻👏☘️🇮🇪❤️💯🎙️ tomorrow or Saturday if we qualify. Bambie has done Ireland proud. I’m ecstatic my little country this year chose this artist and exceptional talent to represent us. This is an excellent cover. CROWN THE WITCH 👸🏻👏☘️🇮🇪❤️💯🎙️

Here Bambie Thug has created the most hauntingly beautiful and incredibly moving cover I have ever experienced. ❤️ They are the most expressive and creative artist I have ever known and this song and video fills me with many different emotions. Being Goth, it brings me tears of happiness and awe as it embodies the sentiments, aesthetics and world views which I ascribe to this way of life, and the subject of the song and the emotional pain expressed bring me tears of sorrow and despair at the atrocities happening in the world even still today. 🖤 Bambie is a brilliantly talented artist and wonderful person who is always speaking out and standing up for what is right, there are so many reasons to love and admire them. 💜

Thank you for this ireland, seriously thank you very much. They gave us a proud pagan (witch) who defends her culture, her sexual orientation and also promotes peace. I'm not from Ireland, but on this side for us they were the winners, along with Ukraine. They will simply go down in history and always amaze Ireland with how progressive and talented the music they present is. A hug to ireland and thank you so much for bambie.

So Proud that we had bambie representing Ireland 💚 The witch was crowed in all our hearts ❤

This needs to be on Spotify!

A good cover is just like this one, not a copy, but a beautiful inspiration for a beautiful piece of art. Bambie will become an international star. 🙏🏻♥️
