To all those saying that this qualified because of the dancers only, no. I am voting for this because I love his tone, vocal range and the simplicity of the song. It takes me elsewhere for a full 3 minutes of serenity which I adore.
@@GoreHub_Inc As somebody who has Sweden as a winner and Ireland as a second i must say both performances were interesting and unique and they both deserve recognition
i love how they are the reason the ESC was taken from China! - for anyone that didn´t hear abou it - China cut out Irelands performance when they broadcast it, because of the homosexual love story, so the production took all the rights from them and now they can´t broadcast any of it anymore! Well done!
Caoimhe more of a slag really. I remember in primary school I was singing Katy Perry I kissed a girl. I got the mick taken outta me because of it. ( I’m a girl)
Ye even now it happens some of lads were calling this lad gay and I said so what if he is what wrong with it and they reply every thing I was shocked 😮 I could believe it they were like two boys kissing I was like so what’s wrong it and they started asking me was I gay so I said no but people are born gay they can’t become gay you are born gay and people take there own life because of people like you who don’t accept them that shut them up I think it was because we were is 6th class and they were trying to act hard but in reality they are pussy
Ineedaholiday Plz Hahahaha, I remember I was in first year of secondary school when that song came out and our art teacher turned it off the radio (because she let us listen to music whilst painting and the likes) and said “we won’t have that filth in this school”, ten years later we have this 💖
So proud of all the irish gang. Coming 6th in the Semi Final of death and then 16th in the final after 4 years of not qualifying. Congratulations guys!
@@Silverythoughts 1st semifinal of 2018 is called semifinal of death or a bloodbath semifinal. It's a semifinal where Russia and Azerbaijan failed for the first time, and Greece failed for the second time. Many favourites were in that semifinal, including Israel, who won. Many of good songs failed to qualify.
MY WINNER!💙 In love totally with this song, a great staging, a great story told from less to more and with respect, bravo Ireland!!👏👏 100 points from Mexico😍
If you check one interview (I forgot which one), when Ryan was asked if he ever kissed a man, he just smiled and said yes, no shock seen on his face like how dare do they ask him that.......you can see this man is a true ally and I am as well. Love is love, folks. :)
That was amazing! “Love is love.” We don’t fall in love with the gender. We fall in love with the person. Unfortunately, in my country people tend to forget about it. But I did like it!
Tears in my eyes! Thank you so much Ireland for sending this beautiful message to Eurovision! Love is love... 🇧🇪😘 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Gay was illegal til the mid nineties, now we have gay marriage, an openly gay taoiseach, this at the eurovision and its all normal. It's amazing how far we've come.
I will never forget when in an interview they asked him if he ever kissed a guy, he just said: "Of course I have." with a smile on his face. No ",but..." followed. This guy is amazing.
This is my winner. I saw you live inside the arena and this song was by far the most emotional to me. Voted only for Ireland several times. Congratulations from Portugal
Ballads dont do well.. Eurovision is s more about energy, fun, celebration & creativity.. there are already many ballads out there that sound similar.. Israels was truely unique , energetic, creative & memorable, and had a huge impact.. irelands was nice and chil and dancing performance complimented the song very nicely, but its not memorable, and sits among millions upon millions of other ballads that sounds similar..
EyeAmBatman Not memorable? Maybe I'm biased since I'm Irish but I've not seen one song, one ballad on national...international television with 2 male dancers for a love song, it's incredibly memorable and changes the entire dance or song competition game.
thats true, it was a great performance... its not memoarble as a song alone though. the song is good, sang beautifully & dancers were great.. its the genre that let it down, I feel..
This is definitely the best stage of this year. Perfect performance perfect lighting perfect camera works for a perfect song. The ranking does not important, what we feel is all.💖
This is precious and so much BIGGER than Eurovision. I'm so happy the song/video/performance exists. It will offer comfort to anybody who stumbles across it in the future. Beautifully done with style and grace. Ryan has a beautiful voice The real winner for me in Eurovision 2018. 😁🇮🇪
this is one of those songs that i would actually choose to listen to when i'm, let's say, going home from work. unlike ''toy''. this is so beautifully written, beautiful melody and beautiful voice. congrats ireland, this song is becoming one of my favorites :)
It was perfect! I hope people will understand, that love is love and it doesn't matter what's your gender. Cute song and awesome performance! Good luck and respect from Ukraine! 💙
two years later and i'm still listening to this beautiful song . i love the message of it . he should have won and the fact that a chicken dance won over this is beyond me . as an Irish person and a member of the lgbt community , he has done us proud UvU
A Scotsman here. God bless the Irish ☘️. What a brilliant song and even better performance. This song should have won. It was hands-down the best song and performance. My wife and I absolutely love it. Well done.
"Love is love" - he was one of the only artists to say something original at the end of their song and a nice message too. Great performance from Ryan, he was very emotional throughout it 😊
A wonderful song! Amazing! I listened now and realized that all love is love. We love a person first of all, for what he is, that he is next to us in joy and in sorrow. This is how we love our parents, brothers, sisters, and friends. I met my friend at the university and I am happy that I have him. He's an amazing person. I'm from Russia. And I am terrified of what is happening around my country. Whatever happens, I am loyal to my country and my home. We all need to understand each other and "evaluate everyone with one measure," as Serbian Patriarch Pavel used to say. There are no rightists here, everyone suffers here without exception and everyone needs help. Both sides. There are people everywhere who are innocent of anything. Only in this way is it possible to come to peace, only through a treaty. Otherwise, it does not lead to anything, we just "blow the dust to the wind" the work of dozens of previous generations. This is my call. Just be people, respect each other. May the Lord God help us all to get out of this.
Something so soulful and deeply touching when Ryan does a ballad. Simple, elegant, touching. The kind of songs that make you realise how capable of love you are because it's felt.
I remember him from x factor and he's so talented and great performer. Beside the dancers were just perfect. In love with everything in his performance. well done Ireland, You deserve more.
I love his personality. He just seems like a great guy to be around with. And he really leaves his heart on stage. Ryan has an amazing hopefully international career in front of him.
this is in my top ten all time fav songs from eurovision. france gall will always be my favorite. artist like olson brothers, katrina and the waves, brotherhood of man and domenico are right up there.
Cute and touching performance 😊 Good luck from Poland 💟🍀 Uroczy i wzruszający występ Jeden z bardziej przemyślanych i dopracowanych. Opowiada piękną historię. Moi zwycięzcy 💟 Powodzenia od Polski
I was trying to hide my hype from parents soo bad when watching this performance... JUST AMAZING WOO! You really deserved better.. Greetings from Lithuania
I would have loved this winning. It was such a beautiful and emotional performance for a song with sad lyrics. I couldn't stop crying for at least half of it. This deserved to make history and be the 8th Irish victory. Greeting and lots of love from Spain ❤
What a Beautiful performance with Ryan from Ireland! The snow falling down at 2:16 is just stunning! The Singer, The Dancers and whole staging works well! Well Done Ireland, hopping your next Eurovision Grand Final will be in 2020!
