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 just wish he could wave with that Eurovision trophy to all the haters just like he did with his dice at MGP.

I would say Andreas/TIX is the most intriguing singer this year, his story just draws you in, but also one of the most interesting singers for years back...

"The exact look of the Norwegian performance has not yet been revealed, what is clear is that the four-winged demons will be on stage with TIX. The singer previously commented that the delegation would be making “noticeable changes” to his performance for the Eurovision Son Contest. TIX previously confirmed he will be wearing an “upgraded” outfit for the contest."

Was already used in NF performance, at least in the chorus.

As far as I understood he had his own backing vocals in MGP.
Maybe he wants to distinguish his vocals from backing xthink (since so many were saying that he was heavily autotuned)

I'm pretty sure they just want to make it more powerful :) And there are a lot of voice effects so maybe they need somebody to do that, like the shouts, I think TIX didn't do them

Strange, but I have a feeling it could be Oslo 2022. The song has something over it like Austria in 2014.
But here are my honest opinion about the song; I absolutely LOVES the norwegian version (i can understand norwegian, so it is not the cheesy lyrics), but the english version is so much more Meh, and middel of the road, but the whole package is still VERY good. :8: points for the english version

I might be the only one, but I do believe the English version blends better with the production and is more catchy. Normally I would rather say: own language, but I think the English version might work better here. Also that 'Fallen angel'-part in the chorus seems to fit perfectly.

Staging-wise there is some work to do, in my opinion. The big wings and the demons (alongside with his personal look) might come across like a funny act, but the song doesn't really. So I wonder if a lot of people in the end will really understand this entry. I'm not saying they should get rid of the big angelwings, the demons or that TIX should change his personal look tho. But I do think they should really focus on the message of the song in their staging. It doesn't all have to be big and sketchy, the song (and the message of it) doesn't need it.

I agree that English version is more catchy... The part 'Imma Imma fallen angel' is an earworm. BUT, idk I like more the flow of the Norwegian words through the melody and Andreas sung it with more passion... Although, he was more emotional with English version (the one time that he held a speech) but that may be just because he advanced in the next round of voting... At the end of the day, I think it's better that he translated it...(y)
And I believe in him as far as performance in Rotterdam goes. He is impulsive, I feel, but I believe he knows what he's doing.

A tear was shed. Or two.

Last year, my biggest mistake was being mad at Diodato at first, this year it's Tix who's eventually my greatest surprise. I hope he does well - not (all that much) for his story, but because I really enjoy Fallen Angel now.

(Also, I think we can now cut those MGTOW comparisons some slack, right? ;) )
