We've finally reached the top 10 and what better way to start it than with an entry that will turn a few heads and raise a few eyebrows. Jedward were criticised extensively for their participation in Eurovision and many people particularly those who knew them from the X Factor and disliked them from it. All criticism aside they finished 8th in the competition which is not an easy thing to do and while they came back the following year and didn't do so good they proved a lot of people wrong who said Ireland would walk away with nil points. Jedward were the perfect choice to represent Ireland they are everything Eurovision loves. They are controversy, they are loud, they are full of energy, they are ambiguously camp, and above all else whether you like to admit it or not they can actually sing when they want to - admittedly this entry is not an example of vocal prowess their performance was one of the best I have seen on Eurovision and the song itself is an earworm.
