THE FIRST SEMI final of Eurovision was on last night and as it tends to do, it brought Irish Twitter together.
Sorry I LOVE how we pass the first stage in Eurovision and suddenly everyone freaks out at how we are going to host next year’s show. Beautiful Irish optimism.
The big news of course was that Ireland made it out of the ‘semi final of death’ and managed to make it to the final for the first time since 2013. However, it wasn’t just Ryan O’Shaughnessy that got us tweeting.
Here are just 18 more of the best tweets from semi final 1.
Spare a thought for those people who just don’t like Eurovision for some reason.
Being on Twitter during the Eurovision is for me what I imagine being a non sport fan is like basically all year.
The second semi final takes place tomorrow with the Grand Final happening this Saturday. Might be an idea to take a leaf out of Craig’s books to calm the nerves.
Having 14 cans and shouting at the telly during the Eurovision is highly underrated.

Marty Whelan played a blinder as usual.
Israel went a bit odd and had chicken noises in their song which was a bit strange.
People were kind of obsessed with Estonia’s dress.
Finland brought a bit of the old Eurovision madness into their entry.
While Cyprus absolutely brought the house down with ‘Fuego’.
The Portuguese hosts were….. something.
