Iceland ICELAND 2019 - Hatari - Hatrið mun sigra

[DaFlo]

People also thought Hungary gon win the televote last year

Netta was a warm act, this right here is too cold to have the same appeal for televoters.

Just heard it for the 1st time a couple of minutes ago. This is just great! 12 points. Well done, Iceland.

3 That fits. But on the other side … while baking Hatari looked like angels ...-O-

Hatrið mun sigra is no where near the same genre as Viszlat nyar or Aina mun Pitta, Viszlat Nyar was a rock song while Aiina mun Pitta was a punk song, Hatari is bringing techno with a dash of punk mixed in, and I'm here for it!

Nothing like Finland 2016 or Hungary 2018. To me it‘s new wave-industrial. Something I actually ike to listen to. (Skinny puppy anyone?)
But this is Eurovision. The same time I appreciate we have something completely different it feels so strange.
I can’t say I don’t like it. I just need some time to recover from this. It‘s actually not bad. But not good either. Just totally fascinating. Like a car crash, you just have to look.

This slowly starts growing on me... I'm upgrading from 4 to 5 points for now. And it sneaked into my current top 10...

Several points were made chosing this. Iceland said ENOUGH!

I think this is it tbh

I applaud a country with a poor record who wants to take a risk.

as for its odds, they are about winners and nothing else. hatari being 4th in the odds doesn't mean all people think it will be top 4, it means it's the fourth most common bet for winning. yes, if juries hate this it's going to do pretty badly, but if they don't it's so easy to see this having the televotes to win that it becomes an easy bet. netta was super high in the odds and she was almost as big of a jury risk. nobody wins big money in odds without taking a risk. remember when jamala was as low as 80/1 during the jury vote reveal in 2016 and someone here made big money off that? that's the spirit.

Jamala was the one from two (another - Austria 2014) most predictable Eurovision winners in last 10 years.
Least predictable - Portugal 2017.

i mean good for you that you saw jamala coming but the public mostly didn't which is the point lol

Yes. The biggest blowout winner in the HISTORY OF EUROVISION who got massive critical acclaim from all preshow sources is the least predictable winner we've ever had. Over a woman who wasn't even on most people's radar as a top five placer and a drag act who people were fearing an NQ for until rehearsals began.

I 100% agree.

They were my favourites from the beginning. Happy to see them being chosen. I love it and I feel like I am being truly alive when the chorus strikes back with these guttural vocals underneath. I am living for that.

 

[Gabe]

Oh my god I love this

The best of the last 7 chosen - points. Would've been interesting to see how things would've worked out, had Maruv taken part in the same half of the same semi-final.

 

[Fierro]

This is unlistenable. But performance is at least fun - 2 pts.

 

[Laepo1]

Uh, I like this.

This is on track to beating Albania for my number one so far.
