I'm very much reminded of Sweden 2010 with this entry. I'd expect it to qualify with relative ease however. Catchy!

I happen to think that this is slightly overrated (like Danish entries tend to be :)), nevertheless it's the best Danish entry since 2005.

A-lister its just you..... I think actually this Nelly has a slight bit girlish tone ....... but the song in the video is in the same genre as Solunas song

I ve also read the some compare her to Alanis Morissette. I think Solunas voice is a bit closer to her .... and again the genre from Alanis' hit album is identical to Solunas song.

I like the familiar / recognize thing in songs...... not meaning that Solunas song is predictable but its easy to get familiar with it and leaning the corus so that you can sing along with it.

Im sure that people who doesn't like it this year actually will come to like it next year. It is not song you farst get really tried off listen to.

Perfavore I think you like the Nordic touch in ESC.... Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Iceland........ only Finland is missing from your list maybe Finland will replace Portugal as no. 10 before the semifinals ?????

Actually, I don't think it's just me. The first thing I thought about when hearing this song is that it sounds like Nelly Furtado (voice). I know that Nelly has a more girlish or nasal tone, and Soluna's is a bit deeper, but other than that it's quite similar... imo atleast.

For sure I hear more "Nelly" than "Alanis" in her voice.

I absolutely love Denmark's entry!! My favourite one together with Iceland. She's got a lovely voice.
I hope she performs exactly as she did in the Dansk Melodi (back-singers on the couch, happy drummer and so on :p)

I agree with A-Lister about the Nelly Furtado similarity (Especially during the chorus), it isn't something I picked up on until a friend pointed it out.
I love Nelly's voice, which probably explains why I love this song so much.

8 points from 'Bama. :D

If the chorus had a couple more words in it (if it were me, the lyric would be "like the Sahara misses the rain"), it would be a 10-pointer, maybe a 12-pointer. Other than that, it's a good song.
