Re: Iceland || WV 45 || Kaleo - Vor í Vaglaskógi || SÖNGVAKEPPNIN FOR WV 46, I NEED YOUR VOTE!

Until now I got three votings and three different 8-points-songs

I'm so excited (and I just cant hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it ♫)

I hope the 6th one gave his 8 points to my favourite

 

[ShoeFlo]

Re: Iceland || WV 45 || Kaleo - Vor í Vaglaskógi || SÖNGVAKEPPNIN FOR WV 46, I NEED YOUR VOTE!

I have 9 votings so far and the constellation is as follows:

1. 44 points
2. 42 points
3. 40 points
4. 33 points
5. 31 points
6. 26 points

So we still have 3 songs to fight for the victory, every vote can be decisive.

Now, it's time to set a deadline: Every WV member who didnt vote yet can send his/her votes until the Star Wars day 4th May 23:59

I still expect the votings from two people, but I dont complain if there are more votings that find their way into my inbox

did you like at least one song?

Because actually, if you hate them all the voting is a bit useless for me (because in that case the 8 points only mean "this song is the least crappy song" ) But if you like one song, it's still okay.

yes I do like my 8 pointer

 

[ShoeFlo]

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || SÖNGVAKEPPNIN FOR WV 46, I NEED YOUR VOTE!

Okay the deadline is over and we have a winner!
For me the result is pretty much like I expected before... I predicted three songs dominating and three underdog songs and it happened like this.
The first place was surprisingly low after the first 3, 4 votes but then it made a Kaleo-like comeback and became the top pointer 4 times in a row
I'm grateful to all the 13 people that gave they voting... much more people than I expected. Great job, guys. Hope you wont regret it. I think there was only one voting in which the winner reached the last place, but this user wrote he liked every song anyway
I can't reveal the winner yet, but that is the final constellation:

1. 67
2. 58
3. 56
4. 45
5. 45
6. 40

By the way, I'm happy that no song got humiliated and every got some positive votings. 40 points is pretty okay for a last place after 13 voters... still a average over 3 points per voting

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || SÖNGVAKEPPNIN FOR WV 46, I NEED YOUR VOTE!

I apologize for not finding the time to vote! Hope it's a good one, anyway.

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || SÖNGVAKEPPNIN FOR WV 46, I NEED YOUR VOTE!

So sorry... I could not find time for this NF either.

Hope a great song won.

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 46: Agent Fresco - Dark Water

Agent Fresco is the band who tries to defend the Worldvision title, so that Reykjavik becomes the head quartier of WV one day

That is the full result:

1. Agent Fresco 67
2. Ásgeir 58
3. Low Roar 56
4. MonoTown 45
5. Jonas Sig 45
6. Soley 40

Actually I planned a more detailed post including a voting grid, but accidently I won the WV and now I am short in time

 

[Amir]

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 46: Agent Fresco - Dark Water

only my -pointer, but still a nice song

 

[DaFlo]

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 46: Agent Fresco - Dark Water

good this won the NF

 

[ShoeFlo]

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 47: Dikta - ???

Agent Fresco reached the 21st place of 27 participants...
First time I ended up in the right page of scoreboard, nonetheless I'm okay with the result.
Prequalifiers often struggle but I didnt end up in the bottom 5, so it wasn't a disaster for me.
I got many points around 4-8, obviously people liked the song (otherwise it wouldn't have won the NF) unfortunately there were no really high votings
I hope in Hennef I will be back in top 15

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 47: Dikta - Thank You

Ísland
WV 47: Dikta - Thank You

In a language learned, when no one was listening,
I try my best to tell you how I feel.
Somehow I am sure and this I believe in,
This is real…

From my heart I sing, to you and I'm hoping,
That you'll understand what I'm trying to say.
Found a place inside of me and I'm grateful
For each day…

A broken wing cannot stop me from flying,
I leave no footprints when you're around.
“Know yourself” you said, you made me so proud of
What I found…


Oh my god, I'm losing it,
I'm finally going out of it,
My senses tingle, I can hardly breathe.

Oh my god, I'm losing it,
I'm finally going out of it,
I feel my heart, I'm suddenly alive!

Thank you.
Thank you for the world ([the world, the world]).
Thank you for the life you're making me see,
Inside of me.


The book is open now and the pen keeps on writing,
Story of my life, it starts right here.
Now I reach the stars, can grab them and hold them,
With no fear…

I am captivated, completely spellbound,
I have found my match.
And the blackbird has flown away,
The blackbird has left me
For good…

Oh my god, I'm losing it,
I'm finally going out of it,
My senses tingle, I can hardly breathe.

Oh my god, I'm losing it,
I'm finally going out of it,
I feel my heart, I'm suddenly alive!

Thank you.
Thank you for the world ([the world, the world]).
Thank you for the life you're making me see,
Inside of me.

Thank you.
Thank you for the world ([the world, the world]).
Thank you for the life you're making me see,
Inside of me.

Thank you.
Thank you for the world ([the world, the world]).
Thank you for the life you're making me see,
Inside of me.

Re: Iceland || WV 45 WINNER || WV 47: Dikta - Thank You

Dikta says 'Thank you' to all the people who voted for them and made their qualification possible.

4 consecutive times in the final.. that's a pretty good feeling.

WV 48: Jónsi - Tornado

You grow, you roar
Although disguised
I know you

You'll...
You'll learn to know

You grow, you grow like tornado
You grow from the inside
Destroy everything through
Destroy from the inside
Erupt like volcano
You flow through the inside
You kill everything through
You kill from the inside


You'll...
You'll learn to know

I wonder if I'm allowed ever to see
I wonder if I'm allowed to ever be free

You sound so blue
You now are gloom


You sound so blue
You now are gloom

I wonder if I'm allowed just ever to be
