Thank god, see you in the Finals Iceland. Great song, good performance. All I hope for is a bit more energy onstage on Saturday but other than that, well done!!!

Good performance, just a little predictable somehow.... i have a feeling this won't really get noticed enough in the final, it's just too middle-of-the-road, for lack of a better word...

If Iceland doesn't win with this, they never will. ;)

I was rather underwhelmed by the semi performance. I really expected something amazing from the staging, but it was hardly anything different from the national final. I also found it weird how serious and intense Jonsi was in comparison to Greta's beaming smile.

Greta for sure read the words on to Jonsi and background singers and then herself did a opposite thing of it. :D

Still love this song!!

I had this down as the one to beat for the win after their first rehearsal, but live there was less impact somehow. This, couple with the draw right after Russia means I think Iceland are out of it once again :( It'll still do well though;

Prediction: 5th - 7th

What ever what Iceland send, always they get near to 20th place in final :(
I can't believe that people didn't like it enough to bring it at least to Top 10-15.
I voted for it and I saw that Estonia gave it also 6 points (always could be more)

I'm so sad for Greta and Jonsi. Jonsi got back in 2004 even better result (19th). It's just one of the saddest thing from this ESC :((((

After those like 15? 16? votings my jaw was on the floor with Iceland null points. They put a lot of effort into this song so I feel really sorry for them. Early draw didn't help for sure. We can wonder how they'd do in Icelandic but we will never find out... 20th position is bad if we keep in mind that they were among favourites. Major flop but not as big as Norway.
