Eurovision winner Paul Harrington said it is ‘unfortunate’ that former Sex Pistols frontman John Lydon is getting all of the Eurovision attention - but backed him to lift the trophy.
Public Image Ltd, the post-punk band formed by John Lydon following the break-up of the Sex Pistols, were among six acts announced by RTE as hopefuls to represent Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest this May.
The news caused a media frenzy, as well known Irish band Wild Youth were also announced as contenders for the gig.
