Marc Roberts: “For years, Ireland has been selecting a performer first, then the song”

Last weekend, our very own Sophie had the opportunity to speak to Marc Roberts, who finished second representing Ireland at Eurovision 1997 with Mysterious Woman, ahead of Eurostarz in Concert at the Water Rats in London. Among other things, Marc opened up about his experience with the Contest in a different era, his loss to Dustin the Turkey at the 2008 Irish national final, and his love of country music, especially that of John Denver.
