  • it sends me shivers down my back!

  • Mjög gott lag en ekki eins gott og Stattu Upp

  • It´s wonderfull... one of my favorites...

    I don´t understand the song, but it is really beautiful!!

    Greetings from Austria ;)

  • @MisaruSerina i love the austrian entry... hope you qualify...

  • ömurlegasta lag fyrr og síðar gjöriði svo vel !!!!! svindlarar !!!!

  • @addabesta Ég er ekki einn af þeim sem tjái mig né fylgist með júróvision en mér var bent á þetta lag er ég var að ferðast um Austurríki. Égt kannaðist aðeins við tungumálið og fattaði :-) að þetta var framlag Íslands í ár. Kíkti á íslenskar fréttir og sá að fyrsta frétt var að símakosning og dómnefnd voru ekki sammála. Miðað við viðbrögð erlendis þá ætti að leggja símakosningu niður á Íslandi strax!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Iceland for the Final!

    Why?

    1. Both are good singers

    2. It's a good song in generell

    3. and most important: they sing in their own language and NOT english!

  • Hrikalega erum við léleg.... mesta lagi 9 stig ef við náum í úrslit

    

  • Translation (Part 3):

    Remember me when morning has come,

    When the darkness is at last at it’s end.

    We will be one and nothing will change that

    And I believe the day will dawn once more

    Remember me when morning has come,

    When the darkness is at last at it’s end.

    We will be one and nothing will change that

    And I believe the day will dawn once more

  • Translation (Part 2): Remember me when morning has come, When the darkness is at last at it’s end. We will be one and nothing will change that And I believe the day will dawn once more Recall when by moonlight They met for the last time He keeps her day and night That she may return to him soon And later when the sun awakens, unite once more Those soles who before had parted, love is it’s cause

  • Translation (Part 1): Sings quietly in the dusk A lament in the black of night In a land of dreams Dwells the one who own hers heart He stares out into the black darkness, Remembers that time when all was bright Has she vanished, was it true That love conquers all? And later when the sun awakens, unite once more Those soles who before had parted, love is it’s cause
  • Langbesta lagið!!!!!!........hélt með þessu .....það er á hreinu

  • this is best song so far

  • This is the best!!!! They have to win Eurovision 2012!!!!

  • Preferred last years entry:(

  • @mrmichael1888 I thought that was boring lol, I like this better!

  • Earorgasm

  • I like this song and these 2 singers. Greeting from Thailand, good luck ^^

  • So far this is the song I liked the best. Good luck Iceland! I am from Hungary :)

  • A little bit boring song. I would have preferred something more fresh and crazy like "saetir kossar" by asa rand&band

  • zajebistość:)

  • DON'T CHANGE THE LYRICS TO ENGLISH! Of course, some songs do sound better in English. But this song is mysterious, magnificent and... nordic. And your language just adds to put that out. With a powerful performance given, this is the winner.

  • Ok now a few words from a Greek.....

    I wish I was Icelandic ..for Iceland has a magnificent landscape,a glorious, heavenly, language and beautiful people...I love u Iceland.....I will learn your language, because I'm a linguist and I can handle 4 languages!!!!Greetings from Cyprus....I will vote your song many times!!!!

  • if they change this to english, it will totally ruin the song.... and somehow, i feel like playing morrowind or skyrim, or WoW...

  • @scorpioninpink Morrowind was a great game!

  • Sammála - sendum nú á íslensku, ef ekki núna þá hvenær :)

  • BTW, is this the studio version? I tried to get hold of it, but my Tónlist account I had set up a couple of years ago won't let me sign in.

    I really hope they don't change the song's language to English! Icelandic is such a great language, and translating ths song would certainly take away part of its drama and awesomeness. ;)

  • @ KoKriLowe: No, this isn't the Sigur Rós Jónsi. Their Jónsi's full name is Jón Þór Birgisson, while the Jónsi above is Jón Jósep Snæbjörnsson (he already represented Iceland once, in 2004, with the song "Heaven").

  • I live this song! I want it to win! Fron United Kingdom <3

  • the song is great, maybe this is the winner song, good luck from Romania

  • is this really Jonsi ? i thought he looked different or do you have 2 Jonsis ?

  • @SIQOalavi yeah this is the same Jonsi that sung Heaven in 2004. But yeah we do have two singers that i remember at the moment the other one is the singer in the band Sigurros ;)

  • @gaygirl1993

    ok thanks, for the info :)

  • @SIQOalavi yes the other one is in the band Sigur rós :)

  • @KoKriLowe

    thanks for the info :)

  • PLEASE DON'T CHANGE THE LANGUAGE!

  • It devastates me that I know this won't win...

  • @markogarfi it will... i hope...

  • Hvad er ad ykkur folki, afhverju getid tid ekki bara verid anægd med tetta lag? ég er nokkud viss um ad tetta nær betri arangri enn eitthvad glata rapp :)

  • @KoKriLowe já nákvæmlega þótt að hitt lagið sé grípandi þá á það ekki eftir að gera eitthvað rosalega gott úti live þar sem að það var frekar falskt hjá þeim hérna heima því miður :( En þau eiga eftir að rúlla þessu upp þarna úti enda eru þau bæði vön að koma fram fyrir framan margmenni. Og jónsi hefur náttúrulega gert þetta áður og það mun ekkert skemma fyrir honum að vera með þá reynslu ;)

  • hreint út sagt glatað :( vonandi eru dómarinir glaðir fyrir að eyðileggja allt. Voru svo mörg góð lög eins og hugar ró og stattu upp enn nei leiðinlegasta lagið komst áfram.

  • @ugalabugalavandamal hefur þú ekki lesið kommentin við þetta lag? Og þjóðin kaus þrjú lög aðallega og þetta var eitt af þeim. So get over it.

  • Comment removed

  • Does anybody know if they will sing in english? I hate how they always choose to sing in english at Eurovision.

  • Superb entry.12 points from Romania and my vote in may.

  • plzz sleppum ad keppa eurovision þetta er jarðafara lag en gott jarðafaralag :D

  • Comment removed

  • The best of Eurovision and please... ¡Not in English!

  • very great song! 12 Points from germany!

  • @maumauchrischi ah - and PLEASE!!! Dont sing in english!

  • Þetta er snilldar lag, það lang besta í keppninni, 12 stig frá mér :)

    Gangi ykkur vel úti og ég vona að þið syngið það á íslensku.

  • This is a very good song. I hope that they sing it in Icelandic. I would love to see an Icelandic Eurovision entry actually sung in Icelandic. :D

  • Wow .. great song! 10 points from Belgium! x

  • Great entry! congratulations form Iceland! Poland loves you!

  • @McYngwie

    ah... for Iceland from Poland :)

  • i from Hungary 5 points 

  • Þetta lag er það eitt skelfilegasta eurovision lag sem ég hef nokkurn tímann heyrt!!!

  • @jakesullyful þú ættir þá að hlusta meir á Eurovision lög ef þér finnst þetta lélegast ;o) það leynast nú ansi mörg "gullkorn" í Eurovisionsögunni...

  • Ég fyllist stolti yfir fulltrúum okkar og lagi í ár. Lagið sterkt og fallegur texti. Margir hafa látið þung orð falla um ósanngirni af hálfu dómnefndar en þessar reglur eru ekki í okkar höndum og ég trúi því vel að dómnefnd og þjóð hafa valið í sameiningu rétt lag. Blár Ópal var með mjög sterkt og grípandi lag sem hefði vel getað komið okkur langt en svo fór sem fór og ættum við að standa með okkar fólki hvernig sem fer.

  • The best song this time, by far.

  • úff trúi ekki að það sé verið að senda þetta í eurovision.

  • Lesiði textann! Hann er ótrúlega fallegur! Þetta verður snilld!

  • STATTU UPP ÁTTI AÐ VINNA!! ÞETTA ER EKKERT EUROVISION LAG!!

  • @54321gunna kæra barn, stattu upp er ekki Eurovision lag það er miklu meirra klúba lag heldur en Eurovision lag. þetta er mun nær en stattu upp

  • Mér finnst skrítið að þetta var ekki mikið kosið (stundum skil ég ekki í fólki) en það komst samt áfram.

  • this sucks :( :( :( :(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love this song! 12 points from Hungary again!

  • Þetta er OK lag... samt ekki jafn gott og lag jóhönnu...

  • Just say no to mullets ..

  • Til hamingju herrar mínir og hórur. -Jónsi

  • @Arsenalbest100 Vonandi segir hann þetta á ensku þarna úti.. baaaara svona svo fólk viti hvernig hann er !

  • ég í alvöru varð svo reið að þetta lag vann.... :C I AM MAD BRO!

  • @TheDinoguin haha he has done that alredy ;)

  • gay lag

  • @siggicoolio segir einn sem er sjálfur gay haha

  • @siggicoolio og er blár ópal sem 4 strákar með gítara ekki hommalegt?

  • Eina eurovision lag sem mér hefur fundist gott síðustu ~5 ár.

  • this is not the winnig song !!! 

  • þumalinn upp ef þér finnst að það ætti ekki að þýða þetta yfir á ensku !!

  • This is not a winning song.

    This was in 3rd place.

    I dont like this song it is dark and lame.

    This was a very strange result.

    7 people chose this song not icelandic people.

  • @40focking5 Það munaði rétt tæpu 1% kosningunni á þessu lagi og bláum ópal.. svo víst kaus íslenska þjóðin þetta lag, og dómnefndin hefur jú 50% vægi í þessu og þannig er það bara... í dómnefndinni voru fagfólk og það veit viti sínu betur heldur en einhverjir krakkaormar sem kusu bláan ópal ;)

  • @40focking5 I just went to Eurovision's official website, and this song is listed for Iceland. So they did in fact win to represent Iceland.

  • Nice song, but I recommend Jónsi to get a haircut before the show.

  • This is the best song ever!!!!

    

  • Kraftig og rik med kultur! Vær så snill og framfør den på islandsk!! Dere SKAL få stemmer fra mange land! Lykke til fra Norge!

  • @senatormls Den sangen er ikke bra! vi vil heler ha sangen med "blár ópal"!!!

  • @senatormls Enig! 12 poeng fra Norge!!

  • IT HAS A KEY CHANGE!!! :D

  • Ég elska þetta lag ♥

  • I hope they don't translate it into English, this is such a beautiful song in Icelandic.

  • WONDERFUL song!! :D.

    Hopefully it'll be kept in Icelandic :)

  • I've fallen love with this song♥ I hope Iceland wins this year!!

    Supports from Finland ^^

  • ... great drama! Luv it! ... Þakka þér!

  • Great choice!!! <3

  • excellent, excellent... such a powerful song! good luck! (;

  • this is beautiful and totally different song! well done iceland! i hope you will do well in baku!

  • people! if we have this song in Icelandic will you give us all your love ?

  • Beautilful song

  • MASTERPIECE

  • 12 points from Mexico

  • Incredible! an absolutely wonderful song!

  • Iceland is the only clever country who chooses the best song for Eurovsion ;)

  • @EurovisionTV12

    What are you talking about this song is absolute shite

  • @zubtebustas You don't understand about good music...

  • @EurovisionTV12

    I dont understand about good music but im pretty sure I understand good music

  • I'm breathless. 12 points from Switzerland!!!

  • This is a perfect chioce Iceland!! Good luck from Spain! :)

  • This is a very good song, I hope it qualifies. :D

  • I think that Regína should have won this, that song is a little better..

    But this song is Ok i guess...

    ísland á ekki eftir að vinna , en þetta lag er allt í lagi .. :)

  • Magni was Iceland's only hope tonight. Probably the best Icelandic rocker of recent years. Iceland tonight missed out on a brilliant singer and the chance to clench the Eurovision title this year.

  • ojj

  • þetta er allt í lagi en samt stattu upp er miklu betra en þetta

  • Denmark was my favorite, but now Eurovision will be in Iceland in 2013!!!

  • það fer út

  • þetta er besta lag for ever

  • Dísess....þetta er einum of íslenskt eitthvað...en samt alveg ágætt verð ég að viðurkenna...

  • AFHVERJU Í FJANDANUM ?!? HVAÐ MEÐ MAGNA???? EÐA REGÍNU??

    

  • Þau eru best í að gera ömurlegt lag!!

  • þetta lag er versta lag í heimi

  • @MrEurovision03 For me it reminds me of Albania 2008

  • >:O

  • Ömurlegt Lag!

  • BEST SONG OF 2012.

    Full of support from Turkey! Go Iceland!

  • Lang besta lagið þetta árið! Þetta verður að fara út!!!

  • Love STATTU UPP FYRIR SJÁLFUM ÞÉR.

    With BLÁR OPALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Young, powerful, good singers.

    Not old version of something.

    Do not chose someone that have been in Eurovison before and failed.

    With love.

  • @40focking5 Like Blar Opal is bringing something new? It's a replica of France 2010 which was much better by the way, Stattu upp is a typical popsong that's been done a thousand times before.

  • Þetta lag er klárlega betur unnið og flottara en Stattu Upp. En Blár Ópall er með mun stærri aðdáenda hóp. Þessi tvö munu berjast um titilinn,

  • VOTE VOTE VOTE FOR THIS ICELAND!!!! PLEASE!!!!!

  • svo ævitíralegt

  • A mix of Estonia 2009 and Poland 2010. I LOVE THIS.

  • Iceland, listen to me carefully...... VOTE THIS!!!! :)

  • @Baraka1358 We did :) and it won! it's going to Baku! :D greetings from Iceland <3

  • Hver heldur að við förum með þetta í eurovision?

  • @atemoyaful það er Hún syngur hljótt í húminu.Harmaljóð í svartnættinu :P

  • @Elmar0900 ok

  • Dude, I will be PISSED if Iceland don't win this year! This song is perfection! (Then again I've only heard three entries I like so far... the other two being Belarus' and France's). Love & support from the UK <3

  • @NotSoUnitedNations Uhm.... Belarus' song is only coming out tomorrow.

  • @daniel9ricther .. Harpan, Egilsholl, Laugardalsholl, Vodafoneholl .. Iceland can definitely host Eurovision.. I believe in Iceland :)

  • much better than blar opal

  • @TheTommih  1000000 TIMES BETTER!!!!

  • REYKJAVIK 2013, NO DOUBT.

  • @Baraka1358 lol, you really think Iceland has the money to host Eurovision? I doubt that!

    besides, we cant win, we are in the north and in the western part of Europe.... Eurovision is so corrupted!

  • I've got a feeling that Europe likes Mundu eftir mer, but Iceland prefers Blar Opal. Could somebody please, tell me whether it is true or not? (I think that they'll choose Stattu upp only because it's crazy, not because it's good)

  • Hún syngur hljótt í húfinu Harma ljóð í svarthnettinu Í draumalandi dvelur sá sem hjartað hennar á. Hann mænir útí myrkrið svart man þá tíð er allt var bjart. Er hún horfin,var það satt að ástin sigri allt. Og seinna þegar sólin vaknar sameinast á ný Þær sálir tvær sem áður skildu ástin verður þín. Mundu eftir mér þegar morgunn er hér þegar myrkrið loks á enda er. Við verðum eitt og því ekkert fær breytt að ég trúi því að dagur enn á ný.
  • It would be very nice to know, from a native woman or man, what the lyrics mean.

  • @jonysatie it's based upon an old icelandic story of Ragnheiður, daughter of a bishop and the man she loved but couldn't have. They loved each other but were not allowed to be together. They sing to each other to always remember each other and hopefully one day they see a better day and be together.

  • @lisaskvis1 thank you for the explanation.

  • ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • Can people please stop replying to me it's him. I FUCKING GET IT!!!! IT'S HIM!!! Seriously pisses me off.

  • allir eru að kjósa staddu upp og mundu eftir mér mikil barátta hjá þeim (mér er alveg sama hvaða lag kemst áfram mundu eftir mér eða staddu upp ég mundi ekki vera fúll!)

  • hvað er málið með hárgreiðsluna hans jónsa ?  Bara spyr!
