The song was performed by [[Can-linn]] featuring [[Kasey Smith (singer)|Kasey Smith]]. The Irish broadcaster [[Raidió Teilifís Éireann]] (RTÉ) organised the national final ''Eurosong 2014'' in order to select the Irish entry for the 2014 contest in [[Copenhagen]], Denmark. Five songs faced the votes of five regional juries and a public televote, ultimately resulting in the selection of "Heartbeat" performed by Can-linn featuring Kasey Smith as the Irish Eurovision entry. Ireland was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 8 May 2014. Performing during the show in position 9, "Heartbeat" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Ireland placed twelfth out of the 15 participating countries in the semi-final with 35 points. == Background == {{main|Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest}} Prior to the 2014 contest, Ireland had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-seven times since its first entry in [[Eurovision Song Contest 1965|1965]]. Ireland has won the contest a record seven times in total. The country's first win came in [[Eurovision Song Contest 1970|1970]], with then-18-year-old [[Dana Rosemary Scallon|Dana]] winning with "[[All Kinds of Everything]]". Ireland holds the record for being the only country to win the contest three times in a row (in [[Eurovision Song Contest 1992|1992]], [[Eurovision Song Contest 1993|1993]] and [[Eurovision Song Contest 1994|1994]]), as well as having the only three-time winner ([[Johnny Logan (singer)|Johnny Logan]], who won in [[Eurovision Song Contest 1980|1980]] as a singer, [[Eurovision Song Contest 1987|1987]] as a singer-songwriter, and again in 1992 as a songwriter). In [[Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011|2011]] and [[Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012|2012]], [[Jedward]] represented the nation for two consecutive years, managing to qualify to the final both times and achieve Ireland's highest position in the contest since [[Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2000|2000]], placing eighth in 2011 with the song "[[Lipstick (Jedward song)|Lipstick]]". The Irish entry in [[Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013|2013]], "Only Love Survives" performed by [[Ryan Dolan]], managed to qualify to the final but placed last. The Irish national broadcaster, [[Raidió Teilifís Éireann]] (RTÉ), broadcasts the event within Ireland and organises the selection process for the nation's entry.

The [[European Broadcasting Union]] (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 20 January 2014, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in. Ireland was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 8 May 2014, and was scheduled to perform in the second half of the show.<ref>{{cite web|last=Escudero|first=Victor M.|date=20 January 2014|title=Allocation Draw results: Who's in which Semi-Final?|url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=allocation_draw_results_whos_in_which_semi-final|access-date=20 January 2014|publisher=Eurovision.tv}}</ref> Once all the competing songs for the 2014 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the shows' producers rather than through another draw, so that similar songs were not placed next to each other. Ireland was set to perform in position 9, following the entry from [[Finland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014|Finland]] and before the entry from [[Belarus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014|Belarus]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Siim|first=Jarmo|date=24 March 2014|title=Running order for Eurovision Semi-Finals decided|url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=running_order_for_eurovision_semi-finals_decided|access-date=26 March 2014|work=Eurovision.tv}}</ref> In Ireland, the semi-finals were broadcast on [[RTÉ2]] and the final was broadcast on [[RTÉ One]] with commentary by [[Marty Whelan]].<ref>{{cite web|date=24 February 2014|title=Eurosong 2014|url=http://www.rte.ie/radio1/mooney/programmes/2014/0224/506342-mooney-monday-february-24th-2014/|access-date=29 March 2014|publisher=[[RTÉ]]}}</ref> The second semi-final and final were also broadcast via radio on [[RTÉ Radio 1]] with commentary by [[Shay Byrne]] and Zbyszek Zalinski.<ref>{{cite web|date=3 May 2014|title=Radio Highlight Thursday|url=http://www.independent.ie/entertainment/tv-radio/radio-highlight-thursday-30233147.html|access-date=5 May 2014|publisher=[[Independent.ie]]}}</ref> The Irish spokesperson, who announced the Irish votes during the final, was [[Nicky Byrne]].<ref>{{cite news|date=8 May 2014|title=Eurovision Song Contest 2014: ecco l'elenco degli spokesperson|language=it|publisher=Eurofestival News|url=http://eurofestivalnews.com/2014/05/08/eurovision-song-contest-2014-lelenco-degli-spokeperson/|access-date=8 May 2014}}</ref> === Final === [[File:ESC2014 - Ireland 01 (crop).jpg|thumb|Kasey Smith during a rehearsal before the second semi-final]] Can-linn and Kasey Smith took in technical rehearsals on 30 April and 3 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 7 and 8 May.

The performers were joined on stage by violinist Denice Doyle. The stage colours were red, yellow and orange with Celtic inspired shapes and patterns against a backdrop that transitioned from dark seas with lightning bolts to an orange sky with green water. The dress Kasey Smith wore was designed by Kathy de Stafford with a neckpiece designed by Oliver Doherty Duncan.<ref>{{cite web |last=Roxburgh |first=Gordon |date=30 April 2014 |title=Can you feel the Irish Heartbeat? |url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=can_you_feel_the_irish_heartbeat |access-date=8 May 2014 |work=Eurovision.tv}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Storvik-Green |first=Simon |date=3 May 2014 |title=A Celtic "Heartbeat" for Ireland |url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=a_celtic_heartbeat_for_ireland |access-date=8 May 2014 |work=Eurovision.tv}}</ref> At the end of the show, Ireland was not announced among the top 10 entries in the second semi-final and therefore failed to qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Ireland placed twelfth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 35 points. === Voting === Voting during the three shows consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently. The individual rankings of each jury member were released shortly after the grand final. Following the release of the full split voting by the EBU after the conclusion of the competition, it was revealed that Ireland had placed tenth with the public televote and fourteenth with the jury vote in the second semi-final. In the public vote, Ireland scored 47 points, while with the jury vote, Ireland scored 33 points. Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Ireland and awarded by Ireland in the second semi-final and grand final of the contest, and the breakdown of the jury voting and televoting conducted during the two shows: ====Points awarded to Ireland==== {| class="wikitable" |- |+ Points awarded to Ireland (Semi-final 2)<ref name="2014semi2">{{cite web |title=Results of the Second Semi-Final of Copenhagen 2014 |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/copenhagen-2014/second-semi-final/results/ireland |publisher=European Broadcasting Union |access-date=8 May 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210508073124/https://eurovision.tv/event/copenhagen-2014/second-semi-final/results/ireland |archive-date=8 May 2021 |url-status=live}}</ref> |- ! scope="col" width="20%" | Score ! scope="col" | Country |- ! scope="row" | 12 points | |- ! scope="row" | 10 points | |- ! scope="row" | 8 points | |- ! scope="row" | 7 points | {{Esc|Macedonia|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 6 points | |- ! scope="row" | 5 points | {{Unbulleted list|{{Esc|Poland|y=2014}}|{{Esc|United Kingdom|y=2014}}}} |- ! scope="row" | 4 points | {{Unbulleted list|{{Esc|Austria|y=2014}}|{{Esc|Malta|y=2014}}}} |- ! scope="row" | 3 points | {{Esc|Norway|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 2 points | {{Unbulleted list|{{Esc|Greece|y=2014}}|{{Esc|Romania|y=2014}}}} |- ! scope="row" | 1 point | {{Unbulleted list|{{Esc|Israel|y=2014}}|{{Esc|Slovenia|y=2014}}|{{Esc|Switzerland|y=2014}}}} |} ====Points awarded by Ireland==== {{col-begin}} {{col-2}} {| class="wikitable" |- |+ Points awarded by Ireland (Semi-final 2)<ref name="2014semi2" /> |- ! scope="col" width="20%" | Score ! scope="col" | Country |- ! scope="row" style="background:gold" | 12 points | {{Esc|Austria|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" style="background:silver" | 10 points | {{Esc|Finland|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" style="background:#CC9966" | 8 points | {{Esc|Norway|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 7 points | {{Esc|Romania|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 6 points | {{Esc|Switzerland|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 5 points | {{Esc|Lithuania|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 4 points | {{Esc|Greece|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 3 points | {{Esc|Malta|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 2 points | {{Esc|Poland|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 1 point | {{Esc|Belarus|y=2014}} |} {{col-2}} {| class="wikitable" |- |+ Points awarded by Ireland (Final)<ref name="2014final">{{cite web |title=Results of the Grand Final of Copenhagen 2014 |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/copenhagen-2014/grand-final/results/ireland |publisher=European Broadcasting Union |access-date=8 May 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210508073131/https://eurovision.tv/event/copenhagen-2014/grand-final/results/ireland |archive-date=8 May 2021 |url-status=live}}</ref> |- ! scope="col" width="20%" | Score ! scope="col" | Country |- ! scope="row" style="background:gold" | 12 points | {{Esc|Austria|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" style="background:silver" | 10 points | {{Esc|Netherlands|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" style="background:#CC9966" | 8 points | {{Esc|United Kingdom|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 7 points | {{Esc|Norway|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 6 points | {{Esc|Spain|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 5 points | {{Esc|Switzerland|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 4 points | {{Esc|Sweden|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 3 points | {{Esc|Malta|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 2 points | {{Esc|Romania|y=2014}} |- ! scope="row" | 1 point | {{Esc|Hungary|y=2014}} |} {{col-end}} ====Detailed voting results==== The following members comprised the Irish jury:<ref>{{cite web|last=Brey|first=Marco|url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=who_will_be_in_the_expert_juries|title=Who will be in the expert juries?|date=1 May 2014|access-date=1 May 2014|work=Eurovision.tv}}</ref> * Patrick Hughes (jury chairperson){{snd}}General Manager [[Sony Music]] Ireland * [[Charlie McGettigan]]{{snd}}singer, songwriter, winner of the [[Eurovision Song Contest 1994]] * [[Leanne Moore]]{{snd}}singer, journalist, presenter * [[Jenny Greene (broadcaster)|Jenny Greene]]{{snd}}DJ, radio presenter * [[Liam Reilly]]{{snd}}singer, songwriter, represented [[Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest 1990|Ireland in the 1990 contest]] {| class="sortable wikitable collapsible plainrowheaders" style="text-align:center" |- |+ {{nowrap|Detailed voting results from Ireland (Semi-final 2)<ref name="2014detailedsemi2">{{cite web |title=Full Split Results {{!}} Second Semi-Final of Copenhagen 2014 |url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/results?event=1873&voter=IE |publisher=European Broadcasting Union |access-date=8 May 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140514023259/http://www.eurovision.tv/page/results?event=1873&voter=IE |archive-date=14 May 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref>}} |- ! scope="col" | Draw ! scope="col" | Country ! scope="col" | <small>{{Abbr|P.
