Amazing performance - I love his expression when he drops the violin. He kept on going, bless him. The show must go on, and he certainly stuck to that principle. I would have had trouble in that situation.
Once again, a superbly talented European musical artist, makes no impact whatsoever in the UK, despite being a mega-artist everywhere else, and I'm really ashamed to say that so many of us Brits seem to feel that if the music originates anywhere other than the UK or the USA, then it's not worth listening to, though I hasten to add that I am not one of them. Our loss I say!!
I really respect and admire the fact that after he dropped his violin, he was able to make it work into the song even though it remained untuned XD GO ALEXANDER
" That thud you hear at 2:26 is Alexander dropping his violin. The violin is untuned afterwards. "
I have seen this video many times and I've always wondered what he does at 2:26. Now I get it. I thought it sounded a little strange to the rest of the song. Hihi! But, he is so good anyway, so it does not matter. :)
hahah, this was so great to watch :d that face when he dropped his violin, but i think i like the original more, this was too much violin, he's is sooo awesome:D
ok, i admit it... now i respect him alot... i like him a bit, just i dont like hearing the same damn song again and again, but this proves to me that he's better than i thought, and i respect him and understand why he won Euro Grand Prix now... i needed to see if he COULD make mistakes too... dont mark my comment down now. plz
why do you guys put down my msg? i admitted to disliking him, but i still think he's a great musician! i just think that he smiles a little too much... sometimes... DON'T MARK MY COMMENT PLZ JUST CAUSE I SAY I DONT LIKE RYBAK!!! READ MY REASONS FIRST AND CONSIDER THEM!!!!!
@Llawlietz and btw, i was fighting with the guy who said "FACK YOU ALEXANDER RYBAK!!!"etc... he was being an ass, not keeping it to himself, and i told him off for it. i wasn't gonna turn it into a full-fight.
@JacklerJackler are you talking to me? no i dont mean this in an upfront way, i mean are you referring to my semi-negative comment? i agree with you about his face looking a little funny at that moment, but i also think, as i've been saying, that he smiles a little too much, even though he's extremely good at the "show must go on" thing... FYI everyone who apparently hates me, i gave this performance a 5* rating, so dont freaking diss me plz.
@ksad96 No I'm talking pretty generally. Sorry if you took it personally. I just hope the best for him. But is it bad thing that he smiles a lot? I guess he's keeping his bad days off of the spot lights. :)

Rybak got pwned so much ! I hope he dies.. Every norwegian hates him, and he deserved that he lost his fiddel (or wtf) on stage in front of the whole world!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yeah, I'm "for real". Well, if you're a norwegian that doesnt hate him, you my friend, are a compleet retard. He is the most Public Relation horny guy I've ever seen. If you dont think so, you havent been paying atention. And no, I'm not jealous of him, I just think he should back off with the media thing and since he dropped his fiddel, he should be ashamed of himself and hopefully, never show his face infront of the camera.
Ooh! Ouch! Poor violin... But of course, better to use it for what it is worth than to hardly ever touch it because you are afraid to break it!
If musicians are not eager and cought up in the moment (like Aleksander clearly is here) so that they practically are a part of the music when they're playing, I think it is time to find an other occupation!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
it was good, but i just don't like him, and please dont mark my comment down to like -100000000 cause i say this, but i just dont and i don't know why. its a good song and he performs very well and obviously he's adaptable after he dropped his fiddle
(hey diddle-diddle the man with the fiddle the cow jumped over the moon lol)
but something about him i just dislike... maybe its because ppl spam his freaking song so much. please dont hate me cause of this comment, and if you want to reply,
hahahah he failed after he lost ''hardingfela'' on the floor xD
