It was just overshadowed by Bosnia, most other years this would have done better, but Bosnia aced the "ethnic elements" category (Speaking as a Norwegian)
This is so touchy. It seems that she came out of a fairy-tale world. She is so pure and innocent and beautiful. I remember voting for her and still it has such an impact on me!! 2016 still...
As a norwegian, I have to say that this is the only ESC-song from my country, that just by closing my eyes, bring me out in the wild norwegian wood! :-D Yeah, and of course Nocturne! ;-)
+Sara Sofie Gerhardsen Totally agree! Nothing wrong with Vardlokk, but if Helene Bøksle (I adore her) entered with a song with quite more edge, more dramatic and played a little with her Adele-ness, oooh... I get shivers down my spine! :-D
Listening Norwegian music in the place where the Greek mythology , philoshopy and so many others were born is not something you see everyday . Unique and beautiful at the same time.
I absolutely love this song. I wish Norway would always sing in Norwegian, as it's such a beautiful language. Christine is so beautiful as well and has a really lovely voice. This wonderful song should have achieved a better result. Godt gjort, Norge! 🇧🇻🇧🇻🇧🇻
@Sora Yes over Lordi. Yeah Lordi was groundbreaking for the eurovision scene, and its a great song no doubt, and definetely a worthy winner. But as far as rock/metal songs goes its not very unique, it's great and generic. Alvedansen on the other hand is far more unique and magical at the same time. (Believe me, there are cases of unique songs that's not particulary good at all; Toy - Netta for example).
I only see the true rightful winner of 2006! It is a truly magical entry !!! Amazing if you are in a forest 🌳 in Lapponia or in Norway 🇳🇴 and there is an Aurora Borealis!!! And it sounds so angelic ! Like if angels are singing 🎤 their traditional songs!!!!! Amazing 😉 ! It is a true masterpiece!!!! The best song in that century !!!
Charlie Harrison That's not the worst part about getting neighbour votes in ESC! In 1995, Sweden didn't give *ANY* points to Norway, who eventually won that year.
There's something very northern in the melody. I think it's cool when countries represent their ethnical peculiarities on Eurovision, it makes the show 100 times more interesting and bright.
This song is simply amazing ang magical. It´s one of the best ESC songs. It's so underrated, i don't understand why. Wonderful and very elegant performance. She is so beautiful, innocent and angelic woman. Thanks Christine!!!
Probably one of the most underrated songs in esc ever!
Es preciosa
Im from Norway
Ulveham
Norwegian language comes back to Eurovision after 18 years
This song is better
and we came in last place LOL
@@Azuia Undeservedly
@@Azuia we get punished when we act Nordic and native
Still listening in 2023. 😊MAGICAL SONG FROM NORWAY. I send huge hugs and kisses and love from SERBIA!
Hvala lepo Tusen Takk
Πόσο πανέμορφες γυναίκες τόσο απλά...αερικά δροσερά ❤❤ υπέροχο τραγούδι.Δυστυχώς αδικήθηκε.
Best Norway's entry ever ❤️ proud that my country gave it most points, so underrated.
As a Norwegian, I might be a little biased but I love this song
2022 and it’s still a masterpiece ! ❤️❤️❤️
2023 😍
Indeed! It should have won.
It was not really a masterpiece back in 2006 and it's status remains unchanged
2024 and i found it again on the Eurovision CD and still am in Love ❤❤❤❤
One of the most underrated songs ever...
The fact that this song came 14th proves that the eurovision song contest has nothing to do with beautiful music.
Yeah. I was hoping it would at least get past 10th place. This is my favorite out of all Eurovision songs
No certainly not when we know who won that year.....
Linda Kristine Kjørlibråten I actually don't dislike Lordi's song....It was very trendy for its time
That's true, Kostas, if you're campy and gay enough you stand a much, if not to say a way better chance.
If Wig Wam didn't participate in 2005 I doubt Lordi would have even attempted Eurovision, much less get voting traction if they did
this song is just so magical, it transforms me to a norwegian forest! norwegian is such a beautiful language!
Absolutely. I feel that Norway was victimised.
West Norwegian dialect
The song that should have won. Hands down.
when the countries will come back to sing in their mother languages? this song is amazing!! :_)
Marta Humo I mean for Norway it works both ways but i would really appreciate a entry in another language
@@user-xt3gt7gg9h This is the only time they've sung in Norwegian since 1998
Portugal does that every year
@@crowjan Spain, France and Italy too, but I meant all the countries...
@@oyemarta
Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Georgia sing in their languages from time to time
beautiful timeless classic
It was so underrated
It was just overshadowed by Bosnia, most other years this would have done better, but Bosnia aced the "ethnic elements" category (Speaking as a Norwegian)
9 years after and still one of the best eurovision songs ever!! i still listen to this amazing song!
me to
Me three ;)
Me four
M'five
Me six 😛
The 14 th place of this masterpiece was an absolute televoting shame in esc history..
the most underrated song in Eurovision history. It's amazing
Norwegians with violins do nice chemistry mixed together shame it wasn’t appreciated that much! In my top 5 that year
It's a Hardingfele
This is so touchy. It seems that she came out of a fairy-tale world. She is so pure and innocent and beautiful. I remember voting for her and still it has such an impact on me!! 2016 still...
Funny that you mention fairytale haha
Hence the name of the song.
ESC Croatia And its funnier because Alvedansen in english means The Elf Dance!
As a norwegian, I have to say that this is the only ESC-song from my country, that just by closing my eyes, bring me out in the wild norwegian wood! :-D Yeah, and of course Nocturne! ;-)
+Sara Sofie Gerhardsen Totally agree! Nothing wrong with Vardlokk, but if Helene Bøksle (I adore her) entered with a song with quite more edge, more dramatic and played a little with her Adele-ness, oooh... I get shivers down my spine! :-D
And I learnt that Norwegian so close to Danish with this song. Both are amazing languages
Do you like Spirit in the Sky?:)
Your country Norway 🇳🇴 was my winner in 1969 1971 1972 1974 1995 1996 and 2006 but 2006 is by far my favorite!!
Her voice flows like a river. It's been a while since I heard a soprano like her. Just beautiful :)
It's still very beautiful to watch and listen to this. 🙂 What a glorious song! 🇳🇴🎻💪🏻
Extremely underrated!!💔😔 Christine Guldbrandsen has beautiful voice! 🇳🇴
Too bad it didn't win, I love this song.
Her voice ...💔
Is it weird that I still remember this ? Eurovision used to be so amazing ❤️
Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷 💙
Listening Norwegian music in the place where the Greek mythology , philoshopy and so many others were born is not something you see everyday . Unique and beautiful at the same time.
The juries would've loved this and lifted it higher. Magical song, and Norway's best entry up to that point since "I Evighet".
She looks like a goddess 😭♥️
Angelic and gorgeous, one of the most heavenly songs in Eurovision! Norwegian is a basic yet lovely language, jeg elsker deg
She should've winner as Eimear Quinn (Eimear Quinn also angelic ❤)
basic ?? how did you figure that out ?
If they'd had juries this would have been top 5
Alvedansen you will always be famous
I would have voted for that song. It is so great they sing in Norwegian. Greetings from Finland.
Finns are our brothers and sisters.
Gåte won! Finally another song at Eurovision in Norwegian 🩷🩷🩷
Den er grusom og skjærer i ørene, blir bunnplass
Gåte is hardly singing in Norwegian tho.. At least not modern day Norwegian.
Sounds more like something our ancestors may have written.
This song is better
Beautiful singer with a beautiful song
This is by far Norway's best entry. This is pure magic, untouchable magic. Flawless from beginning till the end.
ESC Gok AGREED
A masterpiece in Norwegian
Ethereal..out of this world.i remember being so addicted to the song and the singer when i was a little girl
Should have won. One of my favourite eurovision songs ever. ♥️
Listening to this in 2015 and still love it
*****
2017 and counting
I were to young to appreciate it at the time, but what a masterpiece.
Underrated for sure. Beautiful Norwegian ballad that deserved more than 36 points. :D
Best entrie from Norway.
Why 14th place? this song has a heart to show!!
I love Norway's patriotism in their musicality!
Obviously because New Age era had been over for years up to that point
Norway was victimised.
I absolutely love this song. I wish Norway would always sing in Norwegian, as it's such a beautiful language. Christine is so beautiful as well and has a really lovely voice. This wonderful song should have achieved a better result. Godt gjort, Norge! 🇧🇻🇧🇻🇧🇻
It´s one of the best songs I´ve ever listened in Eurovision, and the singer is very beatiful.
Christine is gonna release new music March 17 2023!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
After all these years…what a gorgeous song❤️
THIS SHOULD HAVE WON.
@Sora Yes over Lordi. Yeah Lordi was groundbreaking for the eurovision scene, and its a great song no doubt, and definetely a worthy winner. But as far as rock/metal songs goes its not very unique, it's great and generic. Alvedansen on the other hand is far more unique and magical at the same time. (Believe me, there are cases of unique songs that's not particulary good at all; Toy - Netta for example).
Yes, over Lordi
Norway is such a great and diverse country at Eurovision. Love it!
My first vote ever!
Still the best Eurovision song ever!
Best song love it so much thanks from sweden ❤still play it 2024
I can't believe it's been 10 years since I first heard this song ! Still amazing in 2016!
In 2020 a lab virus will be released. Watch out
And in 2023🥹
10 years and still totally epic.
Most beautiful song and performance in the entire history of ESC.
My winner that year and also my favourite eurovision song of ALL TIMES.
Norway is my best esc country,i love every year their entries!😊
Just beautiful. One of the best Norwegian entries in the history!
IT is beautiful.
So good and totally underrated
One of my all time favorite! 🤍 from Croatia.
One of my favorite entries of all time - such a masterpiece!
This song deserved to be in the Top 10 ☹️
Still amazing in 2017!
Who is here in 2017? Angelic song forever...
Anyone else who is still watching this in 2020? Best Norwegian entry!
How in the holy name of Allah is this the best Norwegian entry??
Wanna share whatever you've been smoking??
I only see the true rightful winner of 2006! It is a truly magical entry !!! Amazing if you are in a forest 🌳 in Lapponia or in Norway 🇳🇴 and there is an Aurora Borealis!!! And it sounds so angelic ! Like if angels are singing 🎤 their traditional songs!!!!! Amazing 😉 ! It is a true masterpiece!!!! The best song in that century !!!
Its not Lapponia. Its Sápmi. Stop to spread misinformation about Norway. We live in Sápmi. Not in Lapponia.
Love that she sings in norwigian
I hope Norway will send more songs like this to Eurovision
Really surprised Denmark only gave Norway 1 point that year and even more surprised Sweden only awarded Norway with 2 points, strange.
Charlie Harrison really? that's so low though, it deserves a 12.. I love the song - sounds mystical
Charlie Harrison That's not the worst part about getting neighbour votes in ESC! In 1995, Sweden didn't give *ANY* points to Norway, who eventually won that year.
Professorbairos great one, skål!
Professorbairos And what about that time when nearly ALL of the Nordic countries (except for host nation, Sweden.) didn't qualify back in 2016?
No fault of mine (from Denmark) - I wanted it to win! :)
2018 and this is still one of my favorite songs. This was one of the most underrated song from Norway Eurovision compared to Norway 2009. Bravo-
After ten years I still love listening to this, love from Mexico.
Caleb Rentería Ey! Alguien más disfruta de Eurovisión desde México :D
😅these ladies are stunning
my most favourite song ever
My all time fav song from NORWAY 🇳🇴💕
Possibly one of the prettiest eurovision songs ever
very underrated. love it
I loved nordik music , beautiful
This is beautiful.
Nordic language is so beautiful
It's so damn beautiful it kills me
maybe you shouldn't listen to it then. Hopefully you are still alive!
Linda Kristine Kjørlibråten 😂😂😂😂
The song, that made me fall in love with Eurovision Song Contest 16 years ago ❤️
The best song on Eurovision

Månen ser bort ....
Just lovely..
I remember i loved this song and it was so underatted!!! Is like a fairytale...
I don't understand anything of this song but sounds so beautiful... Finland was very good but this could have won too
¡Saludos desde España! ;)
There's something very northern in the melody. I think it's cool when countries represent their ethnical peculiarities on Eurovision, it makes the show 100 times more interesting and bright.
2006-2023 Stil Listening!❤
This song is one of Norways best in years..
One of my favourite song all time, not only Eurovision
Deserved to win
From France ❤🇲🇫
Angelic
