Our hopes were high for this year’s Eurovision entry, Molly Sterling, but alas it wasn’t to be.
Molly sang her heart out at the semi-final in Vienna tonight but there weren’t enough votes to see her through to Saturday night’s final.
Playing by Numbers, the song Molly co-wrote with Greg French, is truly gorgeous and we’re sure to see more of this talented lady.
There was a huge reaction to the disappointing news on Twitter and below are just a few of the tweets sent.
Gutted for #Ireland, love that song! @SterlingMolly #Eurovision
