What can I say?
I can't make her stay
When I know that she's so far above
How could she ever love someone like me
She's out of reach

Here in the dark inside the hole in my heart
I'm fighting all of my demons tryna tear me apart
And I'm still not sure what you ever saw in me

No, I'm a, I'm a fallen angel
And no matter where my heart is
There's no way I'll ever
Reach up to heaven
To you

She's so far out of this world
No way I could ever be with her
'Cause I know heaven's your home
That's where angels belong
And it wouldn't be fair
If I keep you down here

Here in the dark inside the hole in my heart
I'm fighting all of my demons tryna tear me apart
And I'm still not sure what you ever saw in me

No, I'm a, I'm a fallen angel
Tryna fly, but I'm not able
And I need you to know
That it's okay to let me go
'Cause no matter where my heart is
There's no way I'll ever
Reach up to heaven
To you

I'm a, I'm a fallen angel
Yeah I'm a, I'm a fallen angel
And I'm still not sure
What you ever saw in me

No, I'm a, I'm a fallen angel
Tryna fly, but I'm not able, so
Just let me go (I'm a, I'm a fallen angel)
'Cause no matter where my heart is
There's no way I'll ever
Reach up to heaven
To you​

I am sorry, but this overloaded and messy performance is not for me. I also think the song is very generic, eventhough his vocals seem to be great. One of the entries I like less. 2 points.

Over a month has passed and i still don't have much to say. This is just a bad, bad song, and Norway really screwed it up here. Lesson to learn: Don't put popular artists with lousy songs in your selection, they may very well win....

I agree with both of you. I've tried to dive into this song but I just can't. It screams dated in its worst way. Unfortunately I'm 98% sure this will qualify over actually good songs like Romania, Belgium or Ireland, for example.

Go Circus!!!!

the circus was for my music taste the only very good song but norwegian people dont like that so much - maybe it was too modern - too much u.s.a. sound? it was a good show and i say thank you to all who perform this song on stage. x12points

ok,we have that white angel as clearly winner above keiino (not my cup of tea,too)!
the staging looks for me a little bit gay - is it going in that way?
and what we do with the sixth black angel in rotterdam? :mrgreen:
this song is WTF on stage and so outdated but TIX is also a spotify star in norway i have lerned -
the bookies love that song too.
the music is 80s or 90s but in a very boring way but the staging is definetly a rememberable moment so no points for the music - only for staging. :3:
in germany we name that a "schnulze von früher". xangel

The way I love this song is indecent, lol. It's just so addictive.

I do think it has a 90s vibe to it but not in a negative way, at least not to me. He also reminds me of those very extravagant esc performances from the 2000s but updated and upgraded, ready to be consumed in 2021. The performance is both ears and eyes catchy. TIX is a character and his song is an experience, which is exactly why I love Eurovision !

I've also listen to a lot of his other songs and it's a great discovery, both musically and humanly (he's very relatable, in a way). And for that I would like to thank Norway for sending TIX to Eurovision. He has won a fan abroad. ;)

...so the hypetrain will make a very long stop in norway and will never reach iceland this year. xrollinglol
I am still salty because of Norway snubbing Raylee. 'Hero' is so catchy and stylish. I love singing it out loud too and I've done so 5 minutes ago again, lol. It would be iconic in Rotterdam. While this is merely a boysband ballad with angel wings gimmick that has been done to death at the Eurovision. I should stop being invested in national preselections, as nearly always at least one entry that I adore loses to something that I find mediocre. From my possible top 3 to my bottom 5 with lame & kitsch 'Fallen Angel'.

Maybe Norwegians were not yet ready for such a throwback female bop ... or TIX & Keiino being more popular as artists before the contest in Norway factored in massively. I get that impression that certain, mostly female teen fans of TIX would have voted for him even if the song was much weaker (it still it is to my ears) but it's effectively held up by campy staging. They are just obsessed about him according to various relations.

For me it is lame and not addictive at all, more like the exact opposite.
