I snuck Headhunted on in the car once when I was driving my two sisters and mum somewhere and all three of them said something along the lines of 'what the hell is this', 'it's awful', 'turn it off' etc :lol: :( HOWEVER, everyone I've introduced Mine All Mine too loves it, in fact (here's a shocker) my mum even BOUGHT Maria's album based on the strength of this song - and she never buys albums, let alone imported ones :lol:

just downloaded all of the Finnish finalists songs - not thinking much of Amadeus Pavel :(

 

anyway, this one just screamed Nick - watch this, you'll love it :P

 

 

this would make a great and very different entry for Finland - very Leddra Chapman :lol:

Plus this is already in the final <3

 

About time :drama: I'm disappointed at your lack of love to Amadeus Rich though.

I know! I've made a pledge to follow all five Scandi finals, the UK one and Irish one from now on

 

I don't have enough time/my chart doesn't have enough space to follow any others :drama:

I'm surprised i'm not charting many this year, plus some of them will soon be plummeting already :o Expect the huge flood of confirmed entries in the next 2 months. Can't wait :dance:

the quality of this year's national finals is WELL down on last year...I was charting 8 or 9 Norwegian MGP songs this time last year with Alexander, Tone and Foxy all in my top 5 - this year I have Maria at #21, Bjorn at #46 and nobody else anywhere just yet :lol: Venke, Tomine, Alexander Stensrud and the other Maria should all make my chart at some point but none come close to Fairytale/Butterflies

 

Iceland's semi is enjoyable - there is a lot of variety of music styles which I like. Finland's is very odd, lots of Finnish language tracks too, this ode to America song I'm currently tolerating is atrocious :puke: I can't say I love any more than 2 songs out of this 15 :(

 

roll on Sweden/Denmark

I know! I've made a pledge to follow all five Scandi finals, the UK one and Irish one from now on

 

I don't have enough time/my chart doesn't have enough space to follow any others :drama:

I'm sorry to dissepoint you, but there is only 3 Scandi finals :P

Dansk Melodi Grand Prix, Norge Melodi Grand Prix, Melodifestivalen, Euroviisut and Söngvakeppni Sjónvarpsins :P

 

Btw Icelandic third semi songs are available. <3

I don't get all the fuss about Amadeus. But "Cider Hill" is one of my two favourites in the Finnish selection :D

 

I want them to send Cider Hill, so people think "Is this really the country that won with Lordi in 2006?"

When did Iceland and Finland join Scandinavia? :P

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavia

 

Scandinavia is a region in northern Europe that includes Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Finland is often considered a Scandinavian country in common English usage, and Iceland and the Faroe Islands are sometimes also included.[2]

 

:P

When did Iceland and Finland join Scandinavia? :P

 

I always thought they were :o so does this website;

 

http://www.infoplease.com/dk/encyclopedia/...nd-iceland.html

well...after 45 minutes of pain, horror, shock, and the occasional smile, I can safely say;

 

Cider Hill for the win in Finland please!

 

13 of the other songs on first listen were either awful, generic, bland or too weird for me - I did quite enjoy the song by Heli Kajo though!

I put I'm The One and Mine all Mine on a mixed CD for my parents' car and they seemed to like them both actually :P

Semi 3. Iceland.

 

Hera Björk - Epic thing. Written just for ESC - 9/10

Sjonni Brink - Borefest, but bearable. Quite catchy even at times - 7/10

Steinarr Logi Nesheim - As a 'music' person, not a 'lyric' one, i MUST say that this is EPIC musically. Singer's voice is alright, a little bit letting down the whole thing tho. 8.5/10

Arnar Jónsson - Boring boring boring. 5.5/10

Anna Hlín - This was so painful to listen to. Contender for the worst song ever. 2/10

 

Hera ftw then.

new album out in Sweden next month, great tracklist :wub:
