Little Mermaid (icelandic) Poor Unfortunate Souls +subs

Boy, it took me time to sub this one. But it was worth it I think. The translation came out quite good. And Ursula's voice is very Ursula-ish, but on the other hand I haven't heard an Ursula who didn't sound like one. I think she puts her energy to this and is therefore very good. And she taught me like 3 new words or something! O__o Which doesn't happen every day.
How she sweet talks Ariel all the time kind of makes her more scary o___o
Enjoy her!!

Oh, and i was just having fun with that 'dagsatt' word ^^ Talk about literal translation :P

Oh sweet-cheeks ^^ The expression "True as day" does indeed exist in English. So you weren't making anything new, except that you added too many helpin-forms to the words (As and The) Just thought I'd be a bitch and let you know ^^ Love yah!

Dude, Ursula sounds sooo much cooler in this language! Much, much hotter, and evil! And Ariel's voice is adorably beautiful!

[Otustelija]

I have said this before and I will say this again: the Icelandic version of this song is phenomenal! Absolutely amazing! :)

@tussuduftid Já, myndin var ekki þýdd 1989 þar sem Aladdín var fyrsta talsetta Disneymyndin og hún var talsett '92 minnir mig (kannski plús mínus eitt ár?). En Litla Hafmeyjan var minnir mig ekki talsett það langt eftir á svo það hefði ekki breytt miklu upp á röddina hjá leikkonunni og því var þetta annað hvort ekki hún eða hún er svona fjári góð að breyta röddinni.
