However, the ex-Sex Pistol also said that the opportunity to represent Ireland is 'fantastic' and that he is aiming to break the mould
“I wrote this song, I cried my eyes out writing it and recording it and for them to have appreciated it and put it forward like this.Lydon said he cares for Nora full time, stating:"She's absolutely alright. I mean, I don’t notice the changes because I am there 24/7."But occasionally, when people come over they comment: 'She's losing weight,' but that's obviously going to happen.
"She has bits of her memory, she can remember things say 20 years ago almost perfectly but can’t remember two minutes ago."But I love her so much, it's absolutely alright and to be able to write a song about that, remembering a really wonderful part of our lives, which was a holiday in Hawaii." When it was put to Lydon - whose mother was from Cork and father came from Galway - that representing Ireland at the Eurovision may not be very punk, he joked:"It's incredibly punk!"
