Dreamin' was the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1995, performed in English by Eddie Friel.
The song is a ballad, with Friel singing about the dream he is having and how free he feels in it before he awakes.
The song was performed second on the night (following Poland's Justyna with Sama and preceding Germany's Stone & Stone with Verliebt In Dich). At the close of voting, it had received 55 points, placing 14th in a field of 23. This result was something of a surprise, as Ireland had won the previous 3 Contests (and would in fact go on to win the next one).
It was succeeded as Irish representative in the 1996 Contest by Eimear Quinn with The Voice.
