In my opinion, performers should sing in the language of the country they represent. And then make English or some other versions of these songs as they wish
To all Icelanders seeing this right now. Vote for this one cause this is your only chance at qualification. She has an amazing voice and song, combine this with captivating staging and you'll sail through the final.
Iceland. CHOOSE HER!!! This is modern and catchy. You are going to perform in the second semifinal in Eurovision this year. There are no songs like this!!! She is an amazing performer, she will stand out so much and qualify!!! VOTE DILJA!!!!!
@klarinetta it's not even comparable Sometimes I read strange comparisons with other performances that have no connection or similarities like it's so funny and annoying a the same time
Great vocal performance! Definitely needs an improvement in staging to contend for the win though. It's very dark, very empty and I feel it would benefit from a prop or something for her to interact with. But given her age, this was a great debut!

What a performance. Im litteraly shocked. Iceland, this is your only choice to qualify and reach top 10. Pls keep it in Icelandic and dont change it into English! But please the staging needs a MASSIVE change. (1 - Laying on the floor while singing such a difficult song is a no, she was already out of breath near the first chorus.. (2 - Please she must stop moving around and running around, her vocals are deeply being influenced as we see after the bridge (3 - Get some dancers, a nice prop maybe? But something to remove the emptyness and maybe also different visuals that suit her outfit more? Iceland please if you guys do this. This will be 100% top 10 in Liverpool. Dont screw it up. Because her vocals are outstanding and there is a lot of potential here. Good luck Dilja! :)
You do realize that camera angles are also a solution to fix the “emptiness”…. Throwing in dancers when they’re not needed will literally make the song flop
@@romaricklinguer8365 yeah i understand your opinion but as a Icelandic person i want to see if celebs can chanche something live and make it better like the studio version and me personnaly think the English version is better for the most Songs so we will see next saturday
@@hlifarolidagsson5222 Please vote Sigga Ozk & Dilja because are the best !!! The rockabilly band & Celebs are very Bad sorry Iceland but with them, its a NQ sorry Iceland

I actually like Bragi's song better but she destroyed him with the power, vocals, kinda staging and confidence. Just hoping she can keep at least one chorus in Icelandic :)
@@rod_santos3371 people said the same thing about Ireland last year. I think this song doesn’t have anything that hugely stands out about it to get people to vote for it. So while it’s a song that may have less haters than songs like Romania and Belgium, it could still get less votes because those songs have a unique selling point and this one doesn’t. So unless she changes the staging to something really cool, I think Iceland is staying in the semis this year. I think it will score similarly as Svala and Greta did.
@@GameOverOh Power is also dull and weak. There just isn't anything special enough for people to vote for it. Even with as weak as semi 2 is, I still strongly believe that Iceland will be one of the 6 non-qualifiers.
Oh, this is way, way better than English version. Please sing in Icelandic in Liverpool!
they sang in english 😥
In my opinion, performers should sing in the language of the country they represent. And then make English or some other versions of these songs as they wish
It's such a bop and the vocals are here, she just needs a staging that looks more professional and it's a sure qualifer in ESC. My favourite so far

Iceland. CHOOSE HER!!! This is modern and catchy. You are going to perform in the second semifinal in Eurovision this year. There are no songs like this!!! She is an amazing performer, she will stand out so much and qualify!!! VOTE DILJA!!!!!
AND THEY DID
this could qualify if she would sing in Icelandic
2:34 holy hell the vocals
After having seen all performances, I still think Diljá is by far Iceland's best option! What a song! 🤩
agreed
Wow!!!
Omg this is amazing. I cant even decide if i like the english or islandic version better.
This is absolutely amazing! ❤️🇮🇸
We have to send her, she's amazing 😍
Such a character, she will do good in Eurovision 👌
Think this might flop like Rockefeller Street did in 2011

MY WINNER FROM SPAIN! QUEEN
From Iceland!
YAASSS
This version is even better than official one
honestly i think they could have gone into top 10 singing in icelandic
@@limbiateshitposteri agree
YAAAAASSSS WINNER! Well done Diljá and Iceland! 🤩
WINNER
Omg so good voice and song..plss win 12points from Malta
Please, for the love of all that is holy, send this song.
Fantastic performance. So much passion and great stage presence. Top song of the night.
I'd have loved an icelandic and english version for eurovision ! Still both are pretty good
I hope they send the Icelandic version. Or a mashup of the 2. I love it in Icelandic; it lifts the song up. It's a bit generic in English.
Agreed, much more interesting in the native language! Who thought it would be a good idea to change it
This has to win! 😍🇬🇧 i love her vibe
Iceland, just admit that she’s the best and send her to eurovision!!
My fav for Iceland for 2023. I love this song and her charisma, and i dont even need to understand the lyrics. From Spain ;)
My winner!!
Please, please at least keep part of the song in Icelandic 😭
Please Iceland, send this to Eurovision! Is amazing song!
I think we, Iceland, have a good chance to be in the final in a good place if we send her
@@Fubazur Yes! I can see top 10 to Iceland this year, como on! Is the only right choice

AYYY SHE WON
fínt lag, þarf að bæta upp á sviðsframkomuna. Það virkar eiginlega ekki að ráfa um sviðið í eurovision
She's winning! 🥰
The best song and voice ❤️ Diljiá is Amazing... Twelve points goes to Iceland 🇮🇸
Amazing !!! Staging is confusing at times but can be improved
Like the bridge is one of the best
So powerful
And she is definitely a performer
Get some dancers in and you're all ready to go. We need this energy in Liverpool,
especially in the borefest that is ESC semi final 2.
IF SHE WINS SÖNKVAKEPPIN SHE WILL BE MY WINNER TASTE
Send this and keep it in Icelandic, perfect !
Diljá please keep in Icelandic. Better in Icelandic than english version. Iceland Winner 🇮🇸 kisses from Spain🇪🇦
She will perform in English
Winner performance
Good luck tonight, Diljá! You really deserve to win, the best song in the selection by far!! 🫶🏻🥹
Please Icelad please vote for her in the final. please this is so powerful song. please I'm begging you. too many countries did mistakes this season.
Brava! Maravillosa! Que voz! Que personalidad en el escenario! La adoro es una cucada :)
She's singing in Icelandic!!!
Soooo nice song but those flats in the start are because she’s nervous.. just be confident and you will win the Eurovision 2023❤❤❤
ICELAND EUROVISION 2023 ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg this is so good. I'm sure Iceland will get a great spot in Eurovision final with this song. Love from Serbia 🇷🇸🇮🇸❤️
Iceland this is the best choice
If she goes to Eurovision she'll definitely make the top 5 for sure
Not top 5 but definetly the finals
We’ll see
Winner vibes! Great vocals. The staging needs improvements though.
The staging needs to be completely redone
Bad staging imo
Vocals and song amazing tho
Já!! tólf stig!
My winner from spain
I personally think the empty staging fits the icelandic lyrics of the song. But I agree that it needs something special to do well at ESC.
What a performance. Im litteraly shocked. Iceland, this is your only choice to qualify and reach top 10. Pls keep it in Icelandic and dont change it into English! But please the staging needs a MASSIVE change.

Iceland, this is the one!!!
please win❤
This has to win, but the staging needs to be redone so it can stand out in the contest.
KEEP THIS IN ICELANDIC
She better win or I'm done with NFs this year!!
TOTALLY AGREE,I STILL DONT GET IT, HOW CAN PEOPLE PREFERED THE WORSE ONE TO THE THE BETTER ONE FOR OTHER NF
Haha I feel you
Same
Look! She did!
this song is basically one chorus similar to 2015 entry which was written by the same guy.
Send her to Eurovision please!
mother! mother!
Ferfect , Iceland you have one job , chose her
this is still the best option
Easily the best option after all songs have been performed!
kinda wished they would have sang the song in icelandic... the english version was not it.
The icelandic version is so much better than the english one.... what a pity
Please please keep it in icelandic pls iceland xx love from malta
She changed to english
She is the mother I never had. She is the sister everybody would want. She is the friend that everybody deserves. I don't know a better person.
The song and her vocals are good, the performance must improve. Anyway this seems to be Iceland’s only chance for a decent result at ESC.
I actually have high hopes for Together We Grow there is something special about the Icelandic track
2:33
She will sure be in the superfinal. But i want something like celebs or ok to win
Ok = NQ sorry Iceland
@@romaricklinguer8365 What about celebs?
@@hlifarolidagsson5222 poor vocally, very kitch on the stage...no its ridiculous song.... Vote Dilja or Sigga Ozk, good songs and final !
@@romaricklinguer8365 yeah i understand your opinion but as a Icelandic person i want to see if celebs can chanche something live and make it better like the studio version and me personnaly think the English version is better for the most Songs so we will see next saturday
@@hlifarolidagsson5222 Please vote Sigga Ozk & Dilja because are the best !!!
The rockabilly band & Celebs are very Bad sorry Iceland but with them, its a NQ sorry Iceland
How is the mood in Iceland has this a chance to win the selection?
Yeah big chance
@@hlifarolidagsson5222 do you think so? I heard that she changed the song to english... Has options even that?
@@raualejandro1019 Yes she is really popular
It’s between her and Kristín
Iceland, you only got one job! Vote for Diljá tonight! Don't mess this up please. 😅
Send this please Iceland 🥹💙
Nice but we need the English version in the final
Good Charisma and voice.
She needs a scénography to go with it.
Win tonight please
My favourite from Iceland great vocals but staging needs improvement
I prefer it in English

can't wait for the english version live!!
I hope she keeps it in Icelandic tbh
@@unnursvana I think it sounds a lot better in English
This song is amazing but Pls choose English version 🔥 its more powerfull
If she dont win bro
Would have been so much more interesting in Icelandic. The English version is just dull...
I prefer the chorus in English tbh but the verses need to stay in Icelandic 😭😭 I might have to make my own edit of the song or something
Why is coronovirus in the background lol
Like the song but performance needs work.
I actually like Bragi's song better but she destroyed him with the power, vocals, kinda staging and confidence. Just hoping she can keep at least one chorus in Icelandic :)
amazing song but what is this non-existent staging???
And weird AF camera angles
Less is more is not always a good thing.
I'm sure the staging is going to be good in Liverpool
in my opinion, she needs a better outfit and then the lighting needs to be less dark....but vocals are superb !
Svo flatt!
Why i see this song at eurovision as non qualifier and everybody crying after show that this not qualify
This song is too middle of the road to qualify.
Iceland is in semifinal 2, they can easily qualify with this song
