The last time each Nordic country sent an entry in their native language:
🇩🇰 2021
🇫🇮 2023
🇮🇸 2022
🇳🇴 2006
🇸🇪 1998
Damn.. why are Sweden / Norway so afraid of their own language at Eurovision??
Well, me and my band ‘OffGuard’ just submitted our song to Eurosong 2024 to represent Ireland! We are really hoping we get selected for the shortlist and we wish everyone else the best of luck! Let’s get Ireland to the finals this year! 🇮🇪❤️

i get that, but it doesn’t hurt to try either. i mean finland came 2nd this year! i know sweden do well with english songs (and won this year) but people often see them as a very manufactured country in esc and this would maybe steer clear of that stigma? idk just shower thoughts
I am so so proud of my country with regards to Eurovision for once. Ailsha, we are all rooting for you. Please know that even in the most ridiculous case that you do not win Eurosong, you have won the Irish eurofans hearts. 🇮🇪❤️
The issue I have with this is that IMO it’s trying too hard to hop on a trend to be a fun, jokey entry. If you compare this to another NF song in the ‘fun’ category like 5MIINUST & Puulup’s song in Eesti Laul, that feels much more authentic and charming.
Unfortunately ‘Borderline’ was not selected for the shortlist of Eurosong 2024. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity and we will continue to share our projects with you guys. Here is a preview of the song. Also check us out on Spotify:
