The eurovision website describes the irish song

Then there’s a change of mood as we switch to an acoustic guitar and emerald green lighting – it can only be Ireland. This performance isn’t about dancing or fancy costumes; it’s about Brian Kennedy’s extraordinary voice. Warm yet piercing, it silences the crowd until the song builds to its climax at which point the crowd goes crazy
