Patrick: Excellent! What a calm and friendly performance which completely changes at the end of the song! It bursts out in a real anger with this amazing background and staging. I really like the fact that she stands on that podium. It makes the whole performance special! I really love the dress, which Hersi wore – I really hope it’s the final dress! Vocally she was fantastic—you cannot fault her. Compared to her first rehearsal this is simply perfect.

Vocally this is superb, which I think should be the biggest impression to take away from this rehearsal. However I find the performance visually too static. Hersi doesn’t appear to interact with anyone or anything, so even though the background is intriguing, I still became rather bored looking at this. I hope the actual video recording for the TV audience is more interesting, but for the crowd in Copenhagen I fear this might be a bit dull.
Sounds really good! Grow, my little darling song! Nice stage too. Maybe they should line the lower part of the dress, as it is a beautiful one but the legs showing through don’t work well for this stylish presentation 😉
This song is still growing on me after a month of listening, which is quite rare for me. I love the way it lilts, and I thing the minimal staging works well.
The dress is nice from the waist up, really unflattering from the waist down.
The song is sympathetic at the beginning but you have the sense that it’s dragging way too long…
