What do y’all think? Do you agree with the nation’s choice? Please comment below.
CADEM, Friðrik, María or Elín would be excellent Icelandic representatives in Vienna. They all have amazing songs and talent to defend them.
SUNDAY is just another overrated act that of course stinks as usual. I would not be happy if Iceland sent that crap to Eurovision. The same or worst for Haukur.
Sunday should win no matter what,they have the best song ,no doubt
They eliminated my top 2 from this NF, the bastards. Although I have to say, both Stefania’s as Regina’s performances werent very good.
My favorite for now is Sunday I think.
SUNDAY has a really good song here. Happy to see Iceland choose them.
There’s nothing I would love more at this point than to see SUNDAY winning in Iceland. I want to see this kind of music in Eurovision. If they won and took inspiration from Loreen with minimalist, contemporary staging in Vienna (so they don’t get lost on the mahusive stage!) that would be something special. Even if they didn’t get far, it would be a trumph in Iceland sending something unique and cutting-edge.
If that’s not to be, Maria or Cadem FTW please!!!
If María or Elín wins then I’ll be happy. If Friðrik wins, not so much…
So happy with these results! 🙂 Specially for Maria!
So glad that Haukur advance to final since his song sounds nice to me *that instrument* *cough* and i hope Haukur or SUNDAY will win tho
Stefania should have been the entry to take out the whole comp but there is a little justice with “Milljón augnablik” back in the running. They were the only two song worthy of representing In Vienna.
Really happy with Iceland, I love all the songs in the final so it’s impossible for Iceland to choose a bad song. The worst score they could get from me now is a 9/10 which would place them in my top five no matter what. My personally favourites are “Lítil skref” and “Í kvöld” and I think they both have a good chance of winning. Super excited to hear their English versions too as both Elín and María confirmed their entries would be sung in English if they win. Friðrik would probably be my least favourite but I still really… Read more »
I’m happy to see that “Lítil skref” and “Fjaðrir” made it to the final, but I’m so dissapointed that “Aldrei of seint” didn’t make it. I thought it was seriously wonderful. I didn’t watch the show, was the live performance messed up or something? I will still listen to it though, but I really wished it would’ve made the final and maybe even won it. Anyway, there are still very good songs in the competition, so may the best win!
I hope SUNDAY with Fjaðrir will win in Iceland, but i m affraid that wili be Friðrik Dór or maybe Maria or Elin.
Stefania deserved to get wildcard for final
Iceland, your wildcard sucks so much. You should have picked Stefanía Svavarsdóttir, I really wish María Ólafsdóttir or Sunday to win; if not, we are probably going to see ANOTHER FRICKING BALLAD
Thank God María is in the final but I feel sorry for Regina. As for everybody else especially the icelandic Eric Saade and his gay-trashy number I just couldn’t care less. Boring wildcard by the way. Go María!!
Iceland read out the wrong Augnablik this evening. Stefanía Svarvarsdottír should have got the wildcard.
