Even entries like this sounds better in english.
Off course rarely

VERY rarely.

And this doesn't sound bad by any means, the language is what partly keeps this entry intriguing and mystic, now would "Rändajad" be half as interesting in English? I doubt it.

I think the song is okay....but today I found this unofficial song.

I think it's crazy but I like it better than Greta and Jonsi. Does anybody has any information about that song?
Greetings from Hamburg

I made my poll.

Good initiative

Better than nothing, I hope they get to their senses and realize that the language is actually a part of this whole entries overall impression.

^ I think we should ask the big ESC sites to make a poll. Little blogs like mine won't do much of a difference...

I agree with what Greta said. After all, she is the artist, she knows what's best for her song and for Iceland. I dont think the Icelandic people have a huge problem with things being in English, it's not like the French .

For some reason, most of the people who want the song in english are people whose mother tongue is english...

What's that supposed to mean?? If you are referring to myself, I've never said it should be in English, but that it doesnt matter if it's in English or Icelandic. What's the difference? It will sound good in both languages. Advantage of English is that most will understand it, advantage of Icelandic is that it will be Iceland's native tongue.

I voted for Icelandic in your poll I'd much prefer that to English as I think that may make the song much worse...

Don't be offended by this! I'm just saying that out of so many comments I've seen, regarding the language, most of the people who want Mundu Eftir Mér in english are people from GB or Ireland...

I understand all of those who want it in english. I understand the advantage of singing in english but I don't see Mundu Eftir Mér specifically being favoured by english. And I'm not gonna sit and write my opinion about this again. It's too big!
