Iceland Eurovision History

[PikuSeeker97]

hey skuggi Páll óskar heitir ekki Paul Oskar :(

[ladylettuce]

I love icelandic songs!!!

[sincitybg]

Paul Oscar the best 12 pints from Serbia

[tatiana97yo]

silvia night ftw :D

[heppolo]

Minn hinsti dans is the best.

[MatyiiMatyas]

I actually think that Iceland should've won in 1990! I Love the song Eitt Lag Enn! So charming! :P

[tvtimes]

best ever entry was Sokrates in 1988

[tvtimes]

i miss Iceland singing in Icelandic

[Rule8am]

silvia!!!! ♥

[spikydemon86]

Og fyndir líka öll hin lögin, það myndi falla í kramið hjá Eurovision aðdáendum

[spikydemon86]

Það væri æðislegt ef þú gerðir þetta í tímaröð :)

[tadge72]

are you the guy at the start of the video? how funny! i always wanted iceland to win euro- Pall Oscar is the best ever!

[SaNBeanz]

One of my all time favourites and the best Icelandic entry is their 1988 song! an underrated song too.

I also adore their 2007, 1999, 2000, 1986 and 2006 entries.

[FR149]

I love Silvia Night!!!

[Axentroe]

should have won at least 3 times.

2 amazingly great songs : Heaven and Valentine Lost. 2 very very nice songs :Open your heart and Is it true. and many nice songs like If I had your love, All out of luck, This is my life, Je ne sais quoi..

Definately my favourite country of esc the latest years I've watched! so underrated! I'm afraid that if Johanna couldn't win for Iceland, nobody ever will.. but ok, 2nd place is quite encouraging. I wish you the best luck with the next great song you'll send!

[tadge72]

i always want iceland to win!

[Poppcorn2468]

same here im from iceland :D

[Gunnarsas]

If I had your love was C-R-A-P .

[EinhverGaur]

@Gunnarsas This is Iceland, what were you expecting?

[InyakiAzpilikueta]

the best songs were "valentine lost" and "open ur heart", other songs suck. maybe that's why you haven't ever got eurovision in reykjavik and probably will never get it, huh?:)

[Gunnarsas]

@InyakiAzpilikueta Valentine lost is considered by many Icelanders a big mistake - it was crap.

[kulebilder]

go to hell

[kulebilder]

you are just fuck up in your brain that you can see the point behinde the icelandic artist`s songs

[kulebilder]

we sing with feelings

[pallipoppkorn]

Heaven er versta lagið

Heaven is the worst song

[Referral123]

Call me Crazy but Silvia was my favourite Icelandic entrant along with Yohanna ♥

I think she is Crazy amazing and so funny!

[wertxy]

Nice video, but it would have been better if the songs were in order...

Gott vídeo, en það gæti verið mikið betra ef lögin væru í réttri röð...

[luzzy321]

Iceland is the best !

[dasmysteryman12]

Iceland's singiers are the best 'coz:

1. Their language is one of the most beautiful in the world.

2. Their singing tradition goes back to the Icelandic Sagas

3. They have Bjork. Why can't Bjork represent her country at the ESC for Pete's sake?????

[pallipoppkorn]

she is to famous, it's like england would send lily allen

[Gunnarsas]

@dasmysteryman12 Bjork is not that kind of artist.

[BlueEye096]

i found páll's song a bit weird but good.

silvia was a bit of a mistake but i remember how every other songs...wasnt that good anyway except for birgitta's oh yeah i remember how those two song were so close but silvia won in the end. last two years were. awesome. loved 2005,3 and 1999. i am too young to know about 86,90 and 91 and i was too young to remember 97. good times

[WiiMarioKartFreak]

2009/8 WAS THE BEST ICELAND!!!

[GirlToon87]

silvia night omg hehehehe i hate her i now her ohhh i cud not stop leafing at her when ppl buut et her hehehehe

[gunmage45]

2007 is the best!

[94ayd]

Although it's a great video, I'd have loved to seen the rest of Iceland's history in ESC as well (1987 - gorgeous, 1988 - also great, 1989 - undeserved last place, 1992 - one of the best ever, 1993 - best Icelandic entry maybe..., 1994 - another amazing one, 1995 - a good try, 1996 - the most original, together with 1997), 2000 - just great and 2001 - again didn't deserve last place).

[merkkuri]

where is that 1993 ? thats one of the best

[ListenToYourX]

2003 - Open Your Heart - Birgitta Haukdal. I Love It ;D ;P xD

[jontic]

How come there are so many fantastic Icelandic singers? Yohanna and Euroband were by far the best entrants in the past two years. Paul Oscar's song is probably the best, most forward looking song and performance in Eurovision history. One day you will win!!

[LzJPage]

uff var buinn ad gleyma hversu heit agusta eva (silvia nott) var :P

[kaate54]

draumur um nínu <333 and then selma 1999 !!

[bootsamou]

Well matey... U hav to add another to this. The best Icelandic entry ever. And one of the best Euro songs ever. Is It True.

Beautiful.

[trepkavelka]

wasn´t the girl from the last year in COuntry wedding film?

[Gunnarsas]

@trepkavelka No she was not last year she was in 2006 Silvia Night was in the country wedding film.

[st3min3m]

i think silvia was a mistake we did but i think this yaers song might do well but not as well as 1999 when selam went

[Tomb0ow]

I'm from Holland and I like most of the songs! And I just love SILVIA NIGHT! :D She's just so funny and arrogant! AND 2009 was the best! And 1999 should have won, and 2005 should have made it to the finals! 2004 also should end up higher!

[BabyPickles9026]

did you know that silvia night is a fictional character? she is an actress and her real name is ágústa eva

[BabyPickles9026]

did you know that silvia night is a fictional character? she's an actress and her real name is ágústa eva

[Fjolaaaa]

Draupnir ( heitri hann það ekki?) hefði eigilega átt að vera með á sviðinu XD Hann er snilld !

[Mariabanani96]

Iceland rocks !

(I am Icelandic ;))

[jackson92129]

4:58

[jackson92129]

1999 was the best :)

[andehaj]

I agree!

[Pomoseisnueve]

paul and silvia the best

[javierbeer]

yes and this year good luck for iceland and it is the true ? !!

[Fjolaaaa]

I disagree, Is it true ? is the worst song we´ve sent to Eurovision!

[wishmaster198]

love most of them but 2005 is the best ever!!!!!

[Referral123]

Silvia was Icelands ONLY good entry ...

she should have won!!!

[HaquinusDeGothia]

Sorry but there's only one choise.... Beautiful Birgitta - back then, right now and forever! :)

[Referral123]

No Slivia is the oney person who sticks in my head with her song and the only time I ever voted for Iceland was for her. even though silly easterners did noy vote for her :P

[Steinarhb]

Its the only song that sticks in your head becus the worst songs sticks in ppls heads. it was a good song but not our best song

[HollsTC]

Selma hefði átt að vinna !!!

Hún var lang lang best

huhh xD

[Meskute12]

Silvia Night was the Best ;D

[onestar113]

i like icelandic songs

[sindrikristjan]

Ég hafði ekki hugmynd um að Nína hafi farið í Eurovision!

[Studio112iceland]

hvernig er ekki hægt að vita það?

samið fyrir keppnina

[Steinarhb]

ég vissi það ekki heldur, það var reyndar allveg soldið fyrir minn dag (ég er fæddur 1993) en samt finnst skrítið að ég hafði ekki vitað að það hefði keppt í Eurovision því þetta er eitt af þeim lögum sem allir íslendingar þekkja

[Elias49gr]

along with poland and greece, iceland is my fav esc country! i love their songs! and i also loved silvia night! i dont know why europe didnt get the joke at 2006....

[catokoch]

my fave country in the esc, and this year too... hope is it true will do very good. i missed siggas neitur, but gorgeous jonssi was here, and selma and birgitta, so, very good comp...

[sorrowisgood]

hvar fékkstu þessi video annars?

[taflmaggi]

Hey það vantare Tell me og angel og fleira!

[sorrowisgood]

wow come on people, Silvia Night is and was awesome, admit it! hahahaha, no not really, but the whole thing was a joke so why are people so ashamed/disgusted by it? :D

[february1000]

iceland is one of the best countries in the eurovision history! love your entries every year except for Silvia Night, your artists can always sing very good:D

[gallakall]

im a ashamed for beeing icelandic cuz of silvia night i mean comon , look at her act on 4.27...hear her talk ,,,, SHIIIIITTTT!!!!!

[gallakall]

k it seems some of you ppl want to know why we chosed silvia night, well ppl under 25 chose her mostly and ppl over 25 didnt want her but it seem kids. tenager and some more ppl btw age of 6 and 25 wanted her the most , even if her song was ridiciules

[reynir122]

I don't understand why people hate silvia night this song is awesome people take this competition so seriously.

[gemelo83]

paul oscar changed esc.....

[sorrowisgood]

I agree!

[shr444]

not so great history!=dits good

silvia night i hate her!and selma should have won in jeruslame =D

[F1FANjim]

the worst iceland entry has gotta be silvia night in 2006. What was that all about???????

[sorrowisgood]

It was only about a tv-show that was about a girl who had a really rich dad and all she wanted was to be rich (i mean more rich) and famous. She thought she was better than everyone and trash talked everyone. So we sent her, but fyi Ágústa Eva (the actress) I've heard she apologized for it to most of the other singers/artists who performed 2006.

so yea it was all about a joke, which europeans didn't like (obviously)

[F1FANjim]

yeah, it seems that joke songs are not the flavour when it comes to Eurovision songs. such as, Dustin for Ireland this year, that was partially a joke too, but they didnt get through.

[sorrowisgood]

exactly!

[TheShislon]

Terrible editing, man...

[vilbergz]

Its not the hole history.

[PatRicklover66]

IMO Iceland is one of the strongest country @ESC in almost each year, this vid showed that too (at least for me), only replace the 2005 song with Telma and August from 2000. Then it's perfect.

[euro19952009]

Selma 's the best!

[kiliodoulos83]

eirikur hauksson should have made it to the final cause his song was bloody awesome...

[catokoch]

selma with all out of luck, birgitta with open your heart, jonssi with heaven (he is so gorgeous) and sigga with nætur are the best entries from iceland

[mizzlara]

silvia night ! <33

[mimisthebest]

Go Selma,we love you.

Cisses from Cyprus!!!!!

1992, 1995, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005 & 2008!

1989 DID NOT deserve nil points

[richardmunning]

selma if i had your the best !! love from amsterdam

[EscBelgium111]

Best Icelandic entries are '92, '99, '03 and '08!! Also '91, '05 and '07 were very good. Kudos for the well-maded video, I actually only suspected that ALL the Icelandic entries were there, but still, thanks for the vid. Iceland is imo a strong country in the Eurovision, hope they will be also good next year.

[setheurovision94]

Elska íslenska framburðinn, maður. :D My favourites from my country are 1993's "Þá veistu svarið" and 1997's "Minn hinsti dans". Vel klippt, annars. Gott samt að Friðrik og Regína losuðu sig við pirrandi gaurinn í myndbandinu.

[Mangoteppe]

The best icelandic entries for me is their '97 and '93 entries. '99, '08, '03, '94 and '90 is VERY good too. '86 and '89 is quite nice also.

[setheurovision94]

Wow, we have the same taste as far as my country's entries go, at least for our favourites. I also think '90 and '08 are very good as well.

[missuniworld]

00.10 is ERIKA???

[Eurovisia]

The 1990 Entry was the best.

[Krzo22]

the 2007 entry was best

[kisaac1994]

jonsi's entry, birgitta's entry and eurobandið's entries are the best!!!

[exlancs]

I don't remember any of the other Icelandic entries, but Euroband's 2008 attempt was "the best ever".

[johanneshaukur]

Gaman að sjá þessi gömlu en hvar var "það sem enginn sér", "hægt og hljótt", "sjúbbídú", "Sókrates", "Núna", "tell me" og "Angel". Það vantar alltof mikið í þetta til þess að þetta geti kallast ICELAND EUROVISION HISTORY. Svo hefði þetta líka mátt vera í krónólógískri röð. Gaman en ekki nógu gott.

[Skuggi85]

Ég fullyrti aldrei að þetta væru öll lögin. Bara hluti af okkar history.

Þetta voru líka einu sem ég fann á netinu.

[johanneshaukur]

Þú hefur brugðist mér í hinsta sinn.

[Skuggi85]

Dramadrottning :P

[alias609]

I completely forgot about All Out Of Luck too!

[alias609]

Iceland is probably one of the most underrated countries in Eurovision. They have sent good entries almost every year of the 00s (especially 06, 07 and 08) and that 1997 entry was well different for Eurovision

[unlovedbyal]

alias i know this is strange but 1997 was a gay guy singing

[alias609]

I just mean that 1997's entry was different in that, all you used to get were bad ballads and forgettable pop songs. He gave a dance track with an s&m performance!

[luridlayercake]

I really liked the one that went "tell me, tell me, tell me once, tell my twice, tell me there is no compromise". I think it's from 2000. I voted for that one :D

Love from Denmark

[egersvoIcelandic]

yep it's from 2000, Einar ágúst and Telma. Einar ágúst was in skirt. i think the name is all the time or somthing

[Skuggi85]

Cool... I like all those also and of course "All Out Of Luck" is on the top :)

[Kust85]

yes!

"This is my life" is my favourite song this year, I hope Eurobandid pass to the final...

On the other hand I hate Charlotte, who probably is the big rival of Iceland this year...Sweden could win again eurovision, but I don't want it, but who knows what will happen, heheh ^^

[Skuggi85]

Well in 99 I think they got 12 points from us... We haven't forgotten her so she can forget about us repeating that mistake ;) Anyway I just want to get to the final this year and maybe top 10, its been a while.

[Kust85]

My top 5 of the icelandic entries:

1. Selma - All out of luck

2. Birgitta - Open your heart

3. Euroband - This is my life

4. Selma - If I had your love

5. Sylvia Night - Congratulations

I love Selma, the best of Iceland!!!

This is the year of Iceland!! Go Euroband!!!

Reykjavik 2009!!!

Greetings from Spain ^^
