Eurosong 2006
One of the four songs which was included in the four songs which Brian Kennedy will sing in the Irish Eurovision selection on Friday night next could be in trouble.
The OGAE Ireland site is reporting that songwriter Barry Walsh had a song called "Strong Enough" as the B-Side to the John Walsh & Roisin O'Reilly single "Homes Of Donegal" out a few years ago (the A-Side was used on the "Donegal Catch" advert).
The earlier "Strong Enough" is a soaring Celtic melody and represented Ireland in the 2002 OGAE Song Contest. If it is the same song, then this would break the rule on Eurovision entries not being commercially available before October 2005.
RTÉ has been contacted, so we await further news.
