Finland song its a joke. Its so bad
I love Sweden and Finland but Denmark is also very underrated.
Denmark….what a vocal and the best Schlager song in 2025. Sweden…finally sending a Swedish language song and it is a ton of fun. Finland….great staging where no one will be able to leave their seats when it’s being performed. Iceland and Norway….your songs are just decent because the rowing/lighter imagery lets it down a bit.
I like Norway and Finland best. Sweden is fun but I’m a bit over it already. Denmark is nice but a bit dated. And Iceland is my least favorite of the bunch but I don’t dislike it.
Erika, Alessandro and Måns ?
I like Finland Sweden and Norway
Norway! So catchy and Kyle is so charismatic.
Heja Sverige! Undoubtedly the best Nordic song and the most fun song overall!
The most overhyped just because it is Sweden. It is an ok joke entry, nothing more
I’m a bit torn, can’t choose a favorite between Finland and Sweden this time.
As for the rest, Iceland has a solid bop and both Denmark and Norway are okay
Sweden of course. Don’t like all the rest.
I know you guys will be angry at my choice for Finland, but hear me out. The song sounds good and she sings good, but it is not my favorite to qualify. I will be wrong if it goes to the final, but there might be a chance that Finland won’t make it and the top 4 will.
I think Sweden’s entry is funny, original, and celebratory of their culture. It is also the first song of the 2000s era to be sung entirely in Swedish (Albeit Vora dielect) Norway’s entry is catchy and heartbreaking for Kyle’s mother. It combines Nordic history with dance music and definitely brings the fire. Iceland is an electro-tune that symbolizes a journey on the open sea. The group also has a clever idea of just making it catchy and Icelandic. Denmark’s singer is really great and it is just a poppy disco-esque song that is dramatic and fun at the same time.… Read more »
That’s ok, KAJ is from Finland too!
Finland: 83,45%
Sweden: 11,95%
Iceland: 2,13%
Denmark: 2,11%
Norway: 0,36%
First time since I guess the 90s I hold sweden, my home, highest among the nordics.
Finland is fierce, but Im afraid she will end up on the lower part of the scoreboard.
Iceland is pure fun and I soooo hope they will be in the finals
Denmark and Norway do not appeal to me at all sorry.
Sweden is my winner this year, and Finland and Iceland are both in my top 10, so I’d like to highlight how all three are fantastic! Iceland is especially underrated!
Sweden, overrated as usual (every year)…
Sorrry, this year definitely not. I´m so happy, that Mans didn´t win
Finland
These five songs all shine in their own way. So I’ll be balanced in my praise. I adore Denmark’s “Hallucination” because it’s technically perfect and vocally powerful. I enjoy Finland’s “Ich Komme” because of its wake-up verses, its accelerating tempo and Erika’s prowess. I like Sweden’s sauna song because it’s quite funny and it’s surprisingly well-written as well. (It basically takes pieces from several other songs from Melfest and Eurovision and creates a pastiche that stands up on its own.) I like Norway’s “Lighter” because of the fire choreography and the funny misheard chants of “Nor-Way Nor-Way.” I love Iceland’s… Read more »
I could see a grand final with all five Nordics in. That hasn’t happened since 2014 I think
All Nordics in the final has only happened three times during semifinal period, in 2008, 2009 and 2014. Rare things to happen.
2013 too
Ah yes I forgot 2013, four it is then.
And in 2016 Sweden was the only Nordic country in final, which SVT hosted. That is also pretty strange. Both extremities
Sweden is my fav of the nordics, even though it’s not even in my top 10. Not saying they’re all bad songs, but I’m definitely not the target audience for it.
I honestly think this is a quite a poor year, I can only really pick a top 10 at a push. The Nordic countries this year I believe says it all really, two good/three poor. Finland, no 1, my winner. Sweden, between 3 & 5, good to see the Swedish language this year. Norway, between 13 & 15 Denmark, between 18 & 20 if only Sissal would change her stage presentation/choreography & outfit it might have ended up higher. It might struggle to get out of tue semifinal. Iceland, not my cup of tea, it won’t get out of the… Read more »
I think and hope that Sissal will change all of that. She made a video in which she was reacting to her performance at DMGP. It’s obvious that she was being quite cynical in the video to make fun of all the comments she’s received from fans, but I think she’s understood that the Danish delegation is working on it.
Side note, I learned like 2 days ago that the 3 members of KAJ were all born in 1993… Like really? For Jakob (the one that sing first) it seems normal to me, but the 2 others seems way older. Axel (the one who plays the accordion) looks like a 37-38 years old guy and I thought that Kevin (the tall one) was like 40-42 yo 😐
I’m shocked. I thought sauna + ice bath was a good thing to stay young. No shaming here, I still think Kevin is kinda handsome.
And it is quite interesting to know that before becoming comedy singers, they were first and foremost little boys who played in the same football team and were in the same class at school. It’s easier to understand the group’s obvious complicity now.
That’s it, I’m closing the parenthesis on them, this article is not solely dedicated to them.
I really like Jakob.. That smile! 😀
Denmark!
What did we say was the best Nordic act last year?
Last year, Norway or Sweden. Probably Norway.
My opinion.
Sweden is great: a solid 8.5/10 Fighting in my overall top 2. Usually an 8.5/10 means like a 6-7th place in my ranking but I find this year really really weak.
Finland is good: 8/10. Currently 3rd in my top.
Denmark is nice: 7/10. Basic but still efficient with me. Close to my top 10.
Norway is meh: 5.5-6/10. Basic and I have no appeal to this song. Between 20th and 25th.
Iceland is cringe: <5/10. Below my 30th place…
Nordics have been way stronger in the past.
Dreadful selections. The best somehow is Sweden, but it is not a huge competition because the rest of the songs are some of the worse I ever heard. Its a really weak year for this countries
None of the Nordic songs are for me this year, but I’d say Sweden and Finland are the best and in the middle there’s Iceland.
This year is the first time in I don’t even remember how long when all nordics have at least a decent chance to qualify. Obviously Finland & Sweden are the two main highlights here.
2021 was the last time.
Also all 5 Nordics were also televote qualifiers that year.
Sweden 10/12
Norway 6/12
Finland 4,5/12
Iceland 3/12
Denmark 2,5/12
I get that you use [x]/12 because of Eurovision. But at least be consistent. If you do the Eurovision rating system, at least don’t use [x].5/12
1 – Finland
2 – Sweden
3 – Denmark
4 – Iceland
5 – Norway
the bubble is strong (like every year) but i am not from that bubble so i have voted for sweden instead of finland.
😀
1- Finland (my 2nd)
2- Denmark (my 9th)
3 – Iceland (my 12th)
4 – Sweden (my 18th)
5 – Norway (my 31st)
And I’ll note, I genuinely like all the songs I ranked over 20, so 18th for Sweden is not an insult!
Norway ????????????????
Ik kumme
Easily Finland.
Finland is awful this year. I dont belive that people like that song.
i don’t believe that you exist
Did you know that we don’t all like the same things?
My favourite out of them is Sweden but a big surprise for me this year was also Iceland! Such a fun song, and as I read somewhere, it’s the exact projection of Tutta L’Italia to Iceland :).
Finland is not a song I enjoy but no one can deny how epic Finns and their performances are. Their craziness is something we need at every ESC edition and we have it twice this year if we also count Kaj (and maybe also Tommy Cash).
Norway and Denmark are completely not to my liking and in my bottom 10
Finland and Sweden, I could see them been top 2 and been another 2023 situation
I love the fact that Sweden went out of their confort zone to offer us a song in Swedish and not their typical English generic pop song.
I would not mind them winning everything this year.
They stole the victory at least 2 times (2015 and 2023) , just because for once they send something different a joke bubble entry this year rather than their generic bubble stuff, they get all the hype. If it was another country they would not have a chance, but here comes a massive win for them. And then them hosting in boring Malmo with host petra mede thinking she makes clever jokes and Christer Bjorkman making more changes to give more power to producers. All so predictable
Heat, water, GO!
They are not “the lands of the Vikings”, there are no such thing, and it’s an offensive term. Stop this American garbage!
As a Dane, I don’t feel particularly offended by being called a viking
As a swede, me neither
I didn’t picture you as a viking, but I could be wrong!
I can be anything you want me to be 😉
Can you be cauliflower?
only for you jonas
Vikings were real, they raided and pillaged and killed!
It’s not that deep, and I’m literally Danish 🙂
I just voted for all the Nordics because I like all their songs this year.
I don’t understand this hype over Sweden and Finland. Am I getting old?
Denmark 7/10
Sweden 6/10
Iceland 5/10
Norway 5/10
Finland 4/10
No, only people in esc bubble adore these two songs. Viewers outside of Scandinavia wont understand this Swedish humour, so they cant win, and cheap Finnish song will receive maybe 30 pts by jury and 50 pts by viewers, so it will finish maybe on 15th place.
Halluuu Hallucination
Sverige!!!
the nordics are slaying this year
