She was just on rte radio there and is 95% blind even then. The director managed the cameras for her movement in rehearsals. No one knew she was blind

I just LOVE this song. It is so beautiful and her voice and perfomance is just perfect. My favourite that year, and it still gets me in 2020.

Wait until the weekend comes Then we’ll have what time it takes To sort it out, to see it through Wait until the weekend comes Sundays always change your mind And make you laugh about me and you Hold me now Really don’t want you to go Really don’t want you to go And I’m so afraid Hold me now Really don’t want you to know Really don’t want you to know That I’m so afraid Wait until the summer comes Sunshine looks so good on you We’ll catch the tide and start anew Hold me now Really don’t want you to go Really don’t want you to go And I’m so afraid Hold me now Really don’t want you to know Really don’t want you to know That I’m so afraid Wait until the rainbow ends Then we’ll find our pot of gold Lovers, friends, just growin’ old So wait until the weekend comes and goes Wait until the weekend comes and goes

A great song, very well performed and with a beautiful arrangement. The camerawork of this production really highlights the performances too.

Quite a pedigree behind this one. Brendon Graham, the songwriter, would layer write Ireland’s two most recent Eurovision winners (94 and 96) while arranger Bill Whelan would later compose the score to Riverdance.

I think Bill Whelan also orchestrated What's another year and Hold me now

My favorite song and lady back in 1985! I was disappointed she didn’t win the competition

If it's any consolation, the composer/lyricist Brendan Graham won in 1994 (Rock 'n roll kids) and 1996 (The Voice) instead. :)

Wasn't she the first blind singer at the ESC?

@majormarco 4 жыл бұрын

At the time she wasn't blind yet, she had and has an eye condition that slowly would impact on her sight. She became blind later in life.

Esta canción en ese mismo año 1985 en febrero partisipo en la competencia internacional del festival de viña del Mar pero en voz de Flo McSweeney y debió ganar el evento ya que fue la mejor canción de ése año pero el jurado no le Reconoció y se fue sin ningún premio

Back when the Eurovision was more respected as a song contest with actual talent, unlike the freak show it is now.

What a pleasant ballad, though I think Finland would've been a stronger opener. In any event, the way this song ends is really overdone by the orchestra.

Glad the orchestra days are done so songs can be presented with free will.
