Ireland holds the record for being the only country to win the contest three times in a row (in 1992, 1993 and 1994), as well as having the only three-time winner (Johnny Logan, who won in 1980 as a singer, 1987 as a singer-songwriter, and again in 1992 as a songwriter).[2] Eurosong 2023 was the national final format developed by RTÉ in order to select Ireland's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.[7][11] The international jury panel consisted of former contest winner for Denmark Emmelie de Forest, Slovenian composer and producer Žiga Pirnat, Ukrainian Head of Delegation Oksana Skybinska and British contest expert Paul Jordan, while the national jury panel consisted of musician Paul McLoone and presenters Brendan O'Loughlin and Louise Cantillon.On 1 April, Wild Youth performed during the Polish Eurovision Party, which was held at the Praga Centrum in Warsaw, Poland and hosted by Poli Genova and Konrad Zemlik.[15] The band also performed during the PrePartyES event, which was held on 8 April at the Sala La Riviera venue in Madrid, Spain and hosted by Victor Escudero, SuRie and Ruslana, and during the Eurovision in Concert event which was held on 15 April at the AFAS Live venue in Amsterdam, Netherlands and hosted by Cornald Maas and Hila Noorzai.The staging lighting was in gold and black with the LED floor displaying blue and pink dots and pyrotechnic effects being used during the second chorus.This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.The individual rankings of each jury member in an anonymised form as well as the nation's televoting results were released shortly after the grand final.
