    It's a joke where neighbour countries vote for each other these days and it is nothing whatsoever to do with the song.

    I didn't see the show but I heard Ireland/dervish came near to last!! very sad. I didn't like the song they chose, but they were still great.

    We have Australian Idle here, and it too is rubbish.

    Bleth pandering!

    To be honest about it the pandering lyrics do take away from what is otherwise a pretty song. I fear that Political Correctness will erase our Scottish/Irish heritage. Worse the fear of kilts will effectively drive them out of existence as well.
