Ready to hear the next song entry for the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest? Ireland has become the next country to officially release their song entry for the Lisbon-hosted competition!

January saw the Irish national broadcaster – RTÉ – confirming that Ryan O’Shaughnessy has been internally selected to represent the country at the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest, also revealing the name of the nation’s next song entry for the event: Together.

The Irish broadcaster has remained tight-lipped in the weeks to follow, with no further hints or teasers being released in the lead-up to today’s revelation… until now.

Together with Ireland!

Earlier this year, RTÉ revealed that Ireland’s upcoming entry was written by the internally selected representative himself, together with the songwriting team The Nucleus. The team consists of duo Mark Caplice and Laura Elizabeth Hughes.

The 2018 Irish Eurovision entry was premiered earlier today on RTE Radio.

 

The wait is now over! Listen to Ireland’s official 2018 Eurovision entry, which is set to be performed in the second half of the first semi-final on the 8 May.

What are your thoughts on Ireland’s bidding entry for the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest? Can O’Shaughnessy take the nation back to the final of the competition?
