I'll gave you the link to the right page, right after the resuls ;)

But I learned something, too. I gave Soluna 5 points and I actually like this one a tad better so I guess I have to change my points to 5, too

Well, I noticed that, but since no "proof" of favoritism on that page was given I just simply passed, I'm too lazy :lol:

I see, well 5 is not that bad for something you refer to as "utterly bland"?

Sorry, but why all this hype around this song?? In some forums people already have started to compare this to Fairytale and Euphoria... I mean come on it's not even close to them! It's very forgetable.

Gotta love opinions. I'd say It's better than Fairytale, but I never really liked it. Not exactly on Euphoria's level though. We'll see how it ranks when more songs are known.

Totally agree on that. Personally I didn't like Euphoria either but I was able to recognise its instant appeal and knew it would do extremely well, likely win. I cannot see many people voting for this though even if 2013 turns out to be a bad year. But of course, I might be totally proven wrong in the end.

Oh and did you know that Denmark are in the Handball World Cup final against Spain tomorrow... I bet that they know that in Croatia (con gratulation to the bronze medals)

The Danish public selected the singer and song that was far far superior to any other.

This is a great entry.Room to polish the stage show and herself.

Best entry from Denmark for years.This will challenge for top 5 as things stand now.

Can't really describe with words how happy and relieved I am that the completely unknown Emmelie took the victory against semi-celebreties such as Simone and Muhammed. For the first time ever I actually feel proud of our entry, and after an endless series of generic, bland danish entries that I never really cared for, I actually feel completely patritiotic about this. o_O

Go Emmelie! Make us proud!

It's bother me that the winner song's performance is similiar to Loreen's winning performance. Norway last year and Denmark this year: why the other nordic countries "copy" Sweden? I hope Denmark will change the performance to Malmö.

I do like the song, it is very charming and easy to listen to. However I feel it is a missing a certain spice that I cannot put my finger on, which may ulitametly lead to its downfall as we have seen with similiar mid tempo songs over the past couple of years or so.

When I have listened to the song before I thought it was pretty good, but maybe too similar to Marina And The Diamonds voiceish...but when I see the performance it feels awesome! She is a little diamond in the rough this girl and this song is so un-escish that it makes it refreshing. Will definitly get the swedish 12 in the semi and will do well in ESC hopefully. ;) FINALLY I CHEER FOR DENMARK IN EUROVISION, FIRST TIME IN LIKE 11 YEARS, JIPPIIEEEEEE! ;)

To be honest I don't think it does remind of Loreen that much. Yeah, she has some quirky moves and she feels very down to earth in this performance, but this song has a little different story and she use the drummers and interacts with them in a way that makes it honest, while Loreen did it all by herself. I really like the performance, especially when she looks the fluteist in the face with a look that almost could be called desperation is really strong and makes my gut twirl a bit. I like performances that touch yourself in one way or another and this is the first time Denmark does it, well done! xyes

I see no resemblance to "Euphoria". I see a lot more in common with "Horehronie".
