[Grinch]

thank you *blush*

(btw you owe me whatever is the finest pastry in Turkey and send everything fresh to France if by some mistake I'm right )

Deal! Whatever you'd like, Monsieur xsalute

This was the only song in this year's line up i fell for at first listen, back in national finals time. If that means it is instant it's kind of good news for its success in the contest, I have always felt. There are of course lots of other good songs but I have learned to love them with a bit more time. Iceland has remained my number one and I do so hope the same has happened to other people around the globe. Staging looks fine, I just hope camera work isn't as frantic and busy as in the icelandic final. The boys alone can do the work and we need to be able to see them properly.

First dusters, now a stick? Someone please give Einar something decent

Other than that, I like what I saw :twisted:

 

[Lenny1993]

Whatever. Never in a million years will I love this song. But I feel so entertained by it whatever, Iceland, go through to the big final and make me laugh

 

[Milos-BC]

Although their NF staging was still better, this was an awesome rehearsal and they both sounded good And finally we have the hammer back!


Easy qualification....according to plan, of course.

A refreshing antithesis to Love Love, Peace Peace. I was at first skeptical when I watched the music video but the live performance in the NF and the rehearsal footage look great. I like that Iceland plays it bold instead of beige. I appreciate that it is presented in Icelandic and that it wasn't translated to English to get the message across. It's standing out and it's also quite catchy. 12 points from me.

 

[Vicious1]

They killed it. ��

 

[Yoozek]

They killed it. ��

In their case - I believe you.

 

[Milos-BC]

Such an iconic performance of these legends xbb

 

[Stargazer]

Sorry , this will be one of my few 0 pointers this year. There is nothing I even remotely like about this. And you would think as someone who loves and listens to a lot of metal with harsh, growling vocals that there's little I would dismiss as just noise... but yeah, this is just noise to me. Obnoxious noise.

This has grown quite a lot recently for me. Especially after a couple of recent interviews.

 

[Milos-BC]

Looking forward to their epic show tonight

I wish I could vote for you, but I hold my thumbs instead

 

[popavapeur]

I will vote for them like crazy, thank god France is voting in SF1

GOOD LUCK ICELAND

 

[hijirio]

Is it me or they promptly passed on to the next act as soon as Hatari stopped performing? Were they afraid of them giving some message

 

[LakZaNokte]

This is wild even for esc standards

 

[ayzelto]

KAN is banning them, first cutting their performance right after it, and secondly not showing them in the green room after their recap.

 

[Amethystos]

Today's best.
Congrats to Iceland.
