Come Back to Stay was the Irish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1966, performed by Dickie Rock. This entry was the first ever Eurovision song to be conducted by Noel Kelehan. 28 more would follow, the last one being "Is Always Over Now" by Dawn Martin in 1998. Because in 1965 the RTÉ had not sent its own conductor to the Eurovision Song Contest, Kelehan was to become both the first and the last ever Irish conductor in the Eurovision Song Contest.
