One of final four Eurosong tunes 'ineligible'

One of the final four songs selected for The Late Late Show-Eurosong 2006 this Friday night will be ineligible for the competition, under Eurosong and Eurovision rules, RTE has announced.

Barry Walsh, the composer of Strong Enough, informed RTE today that his song was published previously, which is in breach of Eurosong and Eurovision rules.

RTE will therefore be offering three songs for public consideration on the Late Late Show-Eurosong 2006 on Friday at 9.30pm on RTE One.

The three songs to be sung by Brian Kennedy on Friday evening will be:

- The Greatest Song of All, written by Jimmy McCarthy

- All Over The World, written by Don Mescall

- Every Song Is A Cry For Love, written by Brian Kennedy
