Re: NORWAY 2018

Rybak would be such a fun return with this! It's cheesy as heck but why not? It's fun and daft and we could do with a bit of Rybak charm this year methinks xheat

Re: NORWAY 2018

If just the lyrics would be different.... :mrgreen:
But I like the groove and the melody.

Either way the performance was hilarious, and I enjoyed it! What a glorious piece of polished hot trash. Mi piace.

Re: NORWAY 2018

This has its charms, and seeing Alexander up there with his violin and all brings back the promise of some of his old greatness, but just never gets there. One of the more fun entries of tonight, and would at least be better than some of the other songs at Eurovision this year, but I'd feel a little sad to see him returning with something that's so much weaker than his big win.

1. Vidar Villa
2. Aleksander
3. Stella & Alexandra
4. Alexander
5. Ida Maria
6. Rebecca
7. Charla K
8. Alejandro
9. Nicoline
10. Tom Hugo

All ten songs through, and now it comes down to the IJs and Norwegian televoters. Hoping for the surprise Moren Din victory!

Re: NORWAY 2018

vocally Ida Marie was atrocious. But I admire how she integrated her fall in the choreography spontaneously.

Re: NORWAY 2018

Ida Maria remains my #1, but the 2 Alexanders would also be good.

Re: NORWAY 2018

Re: NORWAY 2018

No question at all that my favourite (in all seriousness) was Rebecca, but I would not be overly upset to see Rybak back at ESC with that glorious entry too ;) Everything else can go home tbh... Not a great selection Norway, not at all.

Re: NORWAY 2018

My favourites..

1. Aleksander Walmann - Talk to the Hand
2. Stella & Alexandra - You Got Me
3. Alexander Rybak - That's How You Write a Song

Alexander's song is a huge lump of cheddar, but I love how he threw absolutely everything at the performance. He somehow got away with the performance. I don't love the song but he was working it. Stella & Alexandra were a big surprise. We could do with a song like theirs at this years contest. Aleksander Walmann had the only song I loved before tonight, and it's still my favourite, by a mile actually. One of those three and i'll be cool enough, but please "Talk To The Hand"xpray

And great show overall! Such stagingxheart

Re: NORWAY 2018

If Alexander doesn't win - will we get another rant from him like when I tried with that girl group from Belarus?
