Mikey faces uphill climb

Following last weeks second place 20.5 score, Mikey and his partner Mel faced a technically and physically challenging routine on Sunday at a time when Mikey was really feeling the effects of the intense training regime.

Mikey said beforehand:

“It is a tricky little routine, it really is, there is a lot of foot work involved in it and a lot of concentration so yeah, I have my work cut out for me. I ‘m sick and tired of falling, I am in so much pain”

With a couple of minor stumbles, (most fans on Twitter thought they were harshly judged) the pair scored there lowest yet 15.

Mikey was philosophical as always and said:

“You can’t get it spot on every single time, every single week so I am very happy with those scores.”

Judge, Karen told Mikey to keep his chin up saying:

“I’m one of your biggest fans. It’s not that you can’t do it, it’s just not consistent yet. The spin was there, you have the required turns. It’s a blip. That’s all it is, don’t worry.”

A SONG Boyzone member Mikey Graham wrote for his wife is among five songs RTE have short-listed to represent Ireland in the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest.

‘Baby, Nothing’s Wrong’, which Graham also performs, beat off competition from hundreds of other entries, including one by Ronan Keating.

Last night, Graham (38) expressed his delight at the song’s selection by a panel including former Eurovision winner Linda Martin.

“I’m amazed and thrilled. If the Irish people like it as much as I do, it will be an honour to represent my country,” he said.

Describing the song as a “Billy Joel-type piano ballad”, Graham revealed its inspiration had been his wife Karen.
