Iceland ICELAND 2021 - Daði og Gagnamagnið - 10 Years

[escYOUnited]

We've been together for a decade now
Still look pretty, I'm lovin' you more
If I could do it all again
I'd probably do it all the same as before
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had had your love
I didn't become myself before I met you
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had felt your love
Everything about you I like

It started out so fast
Now we can take it slower
But it takes some time
Takes a little timе to take a little time
As it agеs like wine

How does she keep getting better?
Every day our love finds a new way to grow
The time we spent together
Hmm, simply feels good
We got a good thing going

And just when I thought that my heart was full
I found places that I never explored
You're so fascinating
And I can't remember the last time I was bored
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had had your love
I didn't become myself before I met you
I don't wanna know what would've happened if I never had felt your love
Everything about you I like

How does she keep getting better?
Every day our love finds a new way to grow (Finds a new way to grow)
The time we spent together
Hmm, feels good

How does she keep getting better?
Every day our love finds a new way to grow
The time we spent together
Hmm, simply feels good
We got a good thing going​

Hmmm, I am not sure though after multiple listens. The song is alright, not as catchy as "Think About Things".
I believe that performance is not going to the final staging because it doesn't look that fun and very much energy-less.
Even the dance choreography looks like a rip-off of "Think About Things".
I don't know if it's because the novelty has worn off, but I am not that impressed with the overall package.
Giving it a for now.

12's across the board.

Everything about this song is just right. Modern and retro, polished and quirky, the teal outfits, and handography, it is such a relable song that immediately tells the viewer "We're here in peace, please be nice to us". This is how you get the people behind your song!

It's about time for Iceland to win!

 

[FilipFromSweden]

It's a bit bland and unoriginal

 

[FilipFromSweden]

No this is how I feel about it

 

[Leydan]

Above is me after listening to that. Idk how people can say this has humour (or last year) as it is totally devoid of any imo. Not to mention totally bland. My big fan flop detector is going off with this one. Now I wont be totally mean, last year I despised Iceland with a burning passion and while I still dislike them this year, the passion is no longer there - so there is that. However having listened to it twice now i've switched off from it both times and struggle to remember it. I'll be kind and give it a generous 2.

 

[Morty]

It's not bad, but it's a massive downgrade from last year. Think About Things was one of my favorites last year, and this... isn't. It's a from me, but I expected more.

 

[VikingTiger]

I was not a big fan of Think about Things. But I was hoping that Iceland could come back with another song that could actually be a contender.... Iceland deserves that after all these years.
I feel this is rather pleasant. Feels less catchy than last year (even though I never felt that last year either). So we will definitely not be going to Reykjavik next year.
And this year's playlist is still one of the shortest ever...

Jep I like it Iceland 10 points

 

[marty]

I am quite disappointed that next years ESC will not be held in Iceland. I give 5 points.

Well, I wasn’t too keen on last year‘s song and even less on this one. Their biggest mistake is to send a retro song in a contest which has already a bunch of 80s reminiscences.
10 years takes itself much too serious. Last year it was outstanding, this year it’s one between many. It would have worked if they sent sth completely different. Imho this is far from qualifying.

 

[Preuss]

I really like this. Not as upbeat and happy as last year, but still a great and solid entry from Iceland. It has the benefit of a live performance, a performance that I found really good and captivating

The ladies (backing singers) are really good. I'd personally like to see more of the rest of the gang as we did in TAT. I'm giving it 10 points for now

 

[AliceEsc]

How can you not love this group of people? They look so nicely weird on stage that you think that even YOU could be up there humming backing vocals with them.
As for the song, it follows the same pattern as last year's (which I liked better tbh), after the verse I wanna sing well, I can't wait to know what do you think about things, you know..

All in all, I like it. 8 pts

 

[94ayd]

It actually got me hooked straight from the intro and prefer it to last year's - for now.

 

[ekzuu]

I looove this!!! 12 points

 

[Mrm]

This so good, I think I even prefer to the last year.. because choreo is even quirkier..
And he didnt change outfit, lol, he likes those pijamas way too much, it seems..
Gooo Dadi!

 

[BorisBubbles]

Just here to post my points in the poll before I go to bed.

It's strange to see a Dadi song as... naked as this one. But it's clear they're holding back on the act for Eurovision, so I'll be mild in my score. It is a better song than "Think about Things", but I think the window of win opportunities has passed for Iceland. Still a very pleasant synthdream.

 

[BarefootBoogaloo]

5 from me

 

[Iker]

The song has a very cool instrumental that gives me a lot of joy but the chorus does not grab me as in 'Think About Things'. I will give 6 in the pool. It is very funky, musically speaking.

 

[gingerale]

Like it way more than last year. Not the contest winner but it will probably take over the radio stations in summer.

points.
