I just have to say, to all of the people of Iceland, you did not make a mistake sending this to Eurovision. This was genuinely one of the best songs this year, and thank you for letting Greta win your national selection.
+Grace Tucker Well said. This song was the best in their selection by far, and it's a crying shame that this didn't make it to the final. Iceland should indeed be very proud of this song and Greta's performance.
Definetely agree with you. I hope Greta will return to Eurovision as soon as possible, as a songwriter or again as an artist. The most important, she is again part of it.
2022 almost ending and I really cannot understand how this masterpiece didn't qualify for the Grand Final! Winner material, song, live and perfo were incredible! ✊🏻❤️ Buenos Aires Argentina here! 🇦🇷
The voting of 2016 was really weird, both the jury and televote. That crap like Russia (who, by the way, stole from our act!) actually won the televote makes me weep.
So unbelievable upset. I'm not an emotional person but I cried walking home after getting off the train from the arena. Greta told me herself how much she's worked and rehearsed for this. It's heartbreaking. She's a strong woman but I hope she realizes how much love we fans have for her.
Im sorry but this is not less than Russia, the first song to show the performance was Iceland, i like more Iceland, and i like Russia too but it seems this is a big signal that the judges would do what it takes to make Russia wins....thats the only thing that I dont like..but I hope that another country wins, the public votes can do that
Yes, I always love Iceland in everything! They deserve a place because it was the best song ever, great performance and that iceland has 330,000 people....
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! This is just a shame. Greta should be in the final instead of Azerbaijan. Hope to see you next year Greta, you are simply amazing!
That moment at 1:49, THAT INCREDIBLE MOMENT PLEEEEEEAAAAASEEEEEE. This is just a shame we're not going to see Greta and her fantastic performance on Saturday's final. Even though, thank you Iceland for your song, I love it so much!
+FlameRays Don't be ridiculous. Although I am Russian, I prefer her performance . And her song. Both shows are interesting in their own way. It's not fair.
Its a shame that it won't be in the final. In my opinion it should have gone instead of Miracle. I'm from Malta and I voted for and tbh when it came down to the last country being chosen I didn't know who to root for...
+Kris Agius Why is that *obvious*. I am from Croatia and while this year I indeed do support Nina (cause her song is beautiful), in 2011, for instance, I thought our non-qualification was all well deserved. It was crap. In this semi, I voted Estonia, Netherlands, Austria and Iceland, cause our 2 neighboring countries (Montenegro and Bosnia) had atrocious songs. If you are true music fan, you vote songs, not countries.
I can't believe it. This is Iceland, this song explain the magic of this land, this song has a beautiful message, and a great staging. I can't believe that Cyprus is in the final instead of her. I can't.
Imi place sa vad romani care sustin Islanda si Estonia ! Inca sunt teribil de dezamagita ca nici Juri, nici Greta nu au trecut mai departe :((( ;-; TT-TT
Some people may find it weird and pathetic but I am genuinely very sad and disappointed with the results. Just how sports fans react when they lose something, that's how I feel about us not getting in the final of Eurovision. I didn't go in with high expectations (although you always hope) but with every day gone by we were higher and higher on the scoreboard and gotten such an amazing response. I really thought we would make it. I know Greta's main goal was to get the message of the song across (which she certainly has) but it still sucks. It was a FLAWLESS performance and Iceland can be very proud of Greta and the entire team.
I'm Greek and I'm actually way more disappointed for Iceland than Greece who failed to qualify for the first time. At least Iceland deserved to be in the final more than anyone.
Honestly, I didn't like it first. But I realized it was one of the best songs this year, it's unique and catchy, and now I always listen it a lot and love it so much. It would have deserved to be in the final and get a place in top 10.
She was flawless, I can't understand why generic Azerbaijan qualified but Greta didn't... It was one of the most unique songs I've ever heard, it's such a shame she didn't make it to the final....
because azerbaycan pays/paid for votes. did you forget about that little scandal that azerbaycan bought votes in lithuania? why do you think nikki and elnur won over the others?:)
Because Azerbaijan has countries like Russia and Armenia that will vote for them no matter what song they put out while Iceland is an island in the middle of nowhere.
Azerbaijan did their best to qualify, because they are rivals with Armenia, and they didnt want their biggest eneny to go to final and them to stay in the semifinal. Azerbaijan has friends with Malta.
+Brynjar Reynisson OMG you're so wrong! Azerbaijan and Armenia are huge enemies, they'd never vote for each other! However, it's true that Azerbaijan is supported by several other countries, including Russia, Georgia, Ukraine etc.
Okay sure, love how people always jump to that conclusion because it’s the easiest one for them to think of. Russia floppped in 2018 so not sure where the “russia do well whatever they send” attitude comes from
@@eurovisionalex2558 i don't know why Russia sent Julia to Eurovision when she couldn't really sing properly. But honestly Russia should be glad to stay in the Semi that year rather then get into the Finale (which is impossible) and people will drawn Russia down
OH, GRETA! I AM SOOO SORRY! I JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND! I AM SHOCKED! WHY?! WHY IS NOT SHE IN THE GRAND FINAL??? SHE DESERVES IT! I AM CRYING! 😭😭😭 MY PERSONAL FAVORITE OF THE YEAR, IT WAS AMAZING PERFORMANCE!!!
The song and the staging were equally perfect, Greta has such a beautiful voice.. I'm so sad they didn't qualify.. she's the one who absolutely deserved to be in the final!!!!
One of the biggest shocks I've ever witnessed in Eurovision, was this talented lady not qualifying. I hope she comes back to represent Iceland in the future and that my country is voting that night so I can help her (unlike last night) :(
The biggest crime that ever happened in Eurovision: Iceland not qualifying for the final.
+Lucky Luuk Of Monsters And Men are not that popular anymore
+Lucky Luuk Totally! Like, for example Israel in 2014 :'(
+Edu Or San Marino 2013.

best non-qualifying song in history !!!
Agreed
Agreed
And Moldova in my opinion.
+Top10 Agreed!
Completely agree - Iceland and Moldova, as well as Azerbaijan and Norway, were my favourites this year and they all scored really low points... :P
I just have to say, to all of the people of Iceland, you did not make a mistake sending this to Eurovision. This was genuinely one of the best songs this year, and thank you for letting Greta win your national selection.

+krmadymn 38 I feel like she needs to be the first Icelandic victor, regardless of what year she wins it.
Grace Tucker totally agree with you
yes, but only she took 14th place in the semi-finals😭😭
2022 almost ending and I really cannot understand how this masterpiece didn't qualify for the Grand Final!
Winner material, song, live and perfo were incredible! ✊🏻❤️
Buenos Aires Argentina here! 🇦🇷
this could be in top 10 in the final ? why , why ?
this should have won
The voting of 2016 was really weird, both the jury and televote. That crap like Russia (who, by the way, stole from our act!) actually won the televote makes me weep.
the song top 5 finals I agree it's not fair that she wasn't in the final I from Russia
@@Euroviking86 who do u mean by our?
Iceland was robbed
+MrAsombrado Yeah... Its Holland...
+MrAsombrado Agree
+MrAsombrado Sorry but the televoters made this decision. Her performance is just a inferior version of Russia's.
+FlameRays Don't say that. I admit it was too similar to Russia's but still, her song was amazing
+ClassicProGamers Austria's was deserved. Azerbaijan and Holland were the thieves
So unbelievable upset. I'm not an emotional person but I cried walking home after getting off the train from the arena. Greta told me herself how much she's worked and rehearsed for this. It's heartbreaking. She's a strong woman but I hope she realizes how much love we fans have for her.
at least now she's the best non-qualifier ever and it's been proven!
Can SOMEBODY please EXPLAIN WHY DID MASTERPIECE DIDN'T QUALIFY?? ...
This was simply GORGEOUS ... Iceland were ROBBED.
+SanBeanzie Sorry but the televoters made this decision. Her performance is just a inferior version of Russia's.

Because it was very unmemorable
One word: ROBBED!
This song was amazing. Deserved to be in the Final.
NANDO tbh it deserved to be first
Iceland are always one of my favourite countries in Eurovision, and I missed them terribly in the final.

Yes, I always love Iceland in everything!
They deserve a place because it was the best song ever, great performance and that iceland has 330,000 people....
I'm Abdou What are you talking about? Iceland received their highest points (7) from San Marino. Blame everyone else including the made up televote.
I thought this was a contender for victory. Her not qualifying makes me so unbelievably sad.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! This is just a shame. Greta should be in the final instead of Azerbaijan. Hope to see you next year Greta, you are simply amazing!
*Greta ^^
+Tigran Abgarjan Greta is just Great😂😂
l m so sad for iceland
+Jose López Great is Greta... I mean Greta is greta... great.
+Jose López Rather switch Austria with this.
NO WAY. SHE DESERVES TO BE IN THE FINAL!!
ROMANIA LOVES YOU
Daaaaa
Bine ca s-a dus Azerbaijan care dupa parerea mea aduce cu Paula Seling si Ovi - Miracle... Sau italienii care au lasat de dorit
Robert Munteanu italienii erau 100% calificați că sunt printre cei 5 care contribuie cel mai mult la show.
Doamne tipa din Azerbaidjan nu poate cânta fara backing vocals si totusi s.a calificat oricum totul se rezuma la block-voting
My winner of ESC 2016!
If she sung in Icelandic, she would be in top 10 easy. But MASTERPIECE is MASTERPIECE!
bullshit you said
+Dragana Ristic Why so rude?
+Emil Müller Why not?
+Emil Müller If anyone say something against this song I'll be much more rude than here...
That moment at 1:49, THAT INCREDIBLE MOMENT PLEEEEEEAAAAASEEEEEE. This is just a shame we're not going to see Greta and her fantastic performance on Saturday's final. Even though, thank you Iceland for your song, I love it so much!
My favorite song from Eurovision 2016 and I still listen to it. I still feel sorry for her that she didn't qualify back then.

STILL 12 POINTS FROM GERMANY! 🔥🔥🔥 Can't believe that Iceland is not in the final. 😕
Totally agree with you !!
Iceland is the winner.....I am from Russia

*WINNER OF SEMI-FINAL SPECIAL!!! CONGRATS!!!*
There it is. One of the most underrated entry of the night :(
just shows how the people prefer generic crap over something good... Iceland was one of the best this year!!
@Sam Galea russia 2016 was first in televoting, that's what they're talking about
My favourite of ESC2016 💙 Still cyring for this in 2024...
Its a shame that it won't be in the final. In my opinion it should have gone instead of Miracle. I'm from Malta and I voted for and tbh when it came down to the last country being chosen I didn't know who to root for...

Its just an opinion and if you don't agree then I frankly don't care

Great performance, one of the best in Semifinal 1! Very underrated.
7 years later and I still cant understand how this didnt qualify. Like literally, this song had everything to fight for TOP10.
What?! All things in this performance were great!
I was expecting this amazing song would get through the finals,
It is one of my very favorite songs this year, This is unfair!!
+Triantafillos Platsis I thought it was the best of Round 1, honestly.
I can't believe it. This is Iceland, this song explain the magic of this land, this song has a beautiful message, and a great staging. I can't believe that Cyprus is in the final instead of her. I can't.
Hear them calling me still one of the best non final song in eurovision to this day for me
I can't believe she didn't qualify 😢😢😢
Greta won Eurovision. She gave us a memorable song that will be a eurovision hit throughout the years & thats a winner for me.
WHY?! This song deserves a TOP10 in the final
How did this not qualify? She was a winner for me.
Congratulations Greta 💕You won tonight, excellent song, love from Mexico 🇲🇽
Seriously, how could she not qualify? What is wrong with Europe?
Yeaah... the fact that Iceland and Estonia didn't qualify SHOCKED me.
SAME
I loved estonia but in my defence he seemed too nervous. Greta though.. No idea 😭
Yeah, he was nervous
He has never performed in front of so many people
His message to estonia people was:
I hope you are not mad at me
+Alex Neagu Iceland & Estonia in....Azerbaijan and Austria out....

This not qualifying is a massive injustice. Amazing song.

Unbelievable. Iceland deserves to win.
Good luck for next year !
Kiss from France ❤️
am obsessed with this song and performed
How did she not qualify?? She was amazing!
We are in 2023 and I still don't understand how she didn't qualify for the final 😢
