Brendan Murray has revealed what he thinks Ireland needs to do in order to be successful in the Eurovision again.
The Galway man, who represented Ireland in Kiev in May, failed to qualify for the final of the song contest.
Following Ireland’s poor showing in the Eurovision in recent years, the former Hometown singer has admitted that the country needs to do better.
“I don’t know if we need to send a better song or send a better singer maybe, hopefully we can improve anyway,” he told the Herald.
“They should definitely open up the selection process a bit and come up with other ideas.
“It’s a different competition nowadays. We need to remember we’re a small country and the Eurovision is getting bigger and bigger.
“It’s not the same competition it was in the Nineties. There’s countries like Israel and Australia competing now. There’s a Chinese delegation as well.”
We wonder who will step up to the plate next year?
