Iceland ICELAND 2025 - Væb - Róa

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Fierro]

This doesn't vibe with me unfortunately. Sounds like a typical ESC entry that wants to present itself as fun one, but offers nothing novel. Giving it so far

 

[freerider]

Iceland should bring in Molly Sanden who sang in the Eurovisionmovie with Will Farrell. Perhaps Will Ferrel to. It would win Eurovision.

 

[Lietuvis]

Alright, so there's not much to say here. A low effort, low talent entry that just to tries to be lively and make fun of itself. Very similar to some Eurodance entries in recent selections, like Latvia's "VB Gang". I won't even call them "Eurodance parody" because the genre was a self-parody in the first place.

Vocals are... unremarkable to be kind, and the staging is consciously amateurish, like something put together for a college student or small company party. If they bring this to the ESC as it is, it's almost a sure NQ, considering better performances in a similar genre have failed, but if they really up the budget and train on the choreography, who knows?

Surely not one of my favorites, though they get cred for using their own language, but next to other "joke" entries we already have in this year, this falls flat.

 

[SpiritofKeiino]

Absolutely dreadful stuff. Charmless for a 'fun' entry

 

[deletingpoint]

I'm really fond of this, they have great youthful energy and it's fun.

 

[Bobjan FR]

Mainstream as it sound, i guess Iceland may open the SF1

 

[Fluke]

Got a feeling we can put this one in the "safe non-qualifiers" category. It's just too amateurish and plastic. Unfortunately i got a feeling Ireland might actually qualify, with a song in the same genre that's even worse IMO.

 

[SpiritofKeiino]

I kind of have it in the same bucket as other young 'fun' and acts like The Busker in 2023 and LPS in 2022. Both felt well meaning and likeable but rather amateurish, had a certain amount of fan love and then got almost zilch in the SF and NQd.

 

[MAD20]

I really see this qualifying, why don't you? If they improve their vocals, I could see a very respectable performance with a song that is super catchy.

 

[gigi_copp3]

I see this as the shock qualifier: it's catchy, but quite professional and not a total gimmick. It could jump the line and be the one who outqualifies Belgium maybe.

 

[Phoenix]

I think it's quite bad, but it reminds me of Jedward, and it worked for them, I guess.

 

[Betwixt Tales]

People seem to hate (dislike) this quite a lot. But I LOVE it.
Such a fun, happy song with an energetic beat.
It's a lot like Sweden's entry, if you ask me.

Crossing my fingers for Iceland making the final.

 

[deletingpoint]

Yes, it has a similar vibe and rhythm to Sweden's entry and i personally actually prefer this. But i can't help feeling that Sweden killed their already slim chances of getting through.

Yes this, whilst I'm happy Sweden selected kaj I really think this kills vaeb's qualification chances.

The chorus is giving me Basshunter But I can't with the cringe rapping and it's too JESC...
