Texinn við lagið: Nóttin geymir leyndarmál, nóttin, þar er ég. Ein með mínum hugsunum Ágengum, fallegum. Allt sem mér fannst undarlegt alveg skil ég nú. Eina von ég eignaðist, þegar birtist þú. Því er ég andvaka, eftir að hafa farið frá þér. Ég er andvaka, eftir að hafa verið hjá þér. Andvaka því að ég horfði í augun. Eftir að ég augun leit andartak þinn svip var sem tíminn stæði kyrr. Ekkert var eins og fyrr. Eftir svona upplifun áttar maður sig. Aldrei mun ég aftur sjá neitt yndislegra en þig. Því er ég andvaka, eftir að hafa farið frá þér. Ég er andvaka, eftir að hafa verið hjá þér. Andvaka. Því að ég horfði í augun þín. Ég vil ekki sofna neitt meir. Andvaka, eftir að hafa farið frá þér. Ég er andvaka, eftir að hafa verið hjá þér. Andvaka, því að ég horfði í augun. Andvaka Því að ég horfði í augun þín. Horfði í augun þín.
Along with Regina, the joint best song of the selection. The live performance was a bit weak, but I think that could have been tweaked. Gudrun has a beautiful voice - very sweet and childlike even. This would have been a qualifier that year.
What happened to all the quality in the Icelandic preselection? About half the songs in our NF in 2006 could've easily won our national selections for the past few years.
After such an emotion one understands I will never lay my eyes on something more beautiful than you For I have been sleepless... oh, and I dont want to sleep again, no, no Sleepless since I left you...
For I have been sleepless since I left you I am sleepless because I was really with you Sleepless because my eyes are still in these eyes Since I laid eyes on you I remember you as if you haven't left off them Time stood still nothing was like before
so here's a translation I took from a Greek Icelandic woman who translated it in Greek... The night has a secret In this night I am alone with my thoughts beautiful and hostile All the things that seemed odd I fully understand now I had a new hope when you came along
Tell me about it. 2006 was perhaps our strongest preselection ever, full of fantastic songs, but we picked Silvia Night, who made a complete fool of us in Athens. Unbelievable.
It was just a bad timing for her. People were nowhere around used to "persona" entries back then and the role play they entail to pull off a parallel world to their act. Silvia Night was in fact very good at what she set out for creating.
❤👏 Vona hún komi aftur með annað í Söngvakeppnina 2023
one of the best Icelandic songs ever!!! a big mistake not sending it to Eurovision!!!
Texinn við lagið:
Nóttin geymir leyndarmál,
nóttin, þar er ég.
Ein með mínum hugsunum
Ágengum, fallegum.
Allt sem mér fannst undarlegt
alveg skil ég nú.
Eina von ég eignaðist,
þegar birtist þú.
Því er ég andvaka,
eftir að hafa farið frá þér.
Ég er andvaka,
eftir að hafa verið hjá þér.
Andvaka
því að ég horfði í augun.
Eftir að ég augun leit
andartak þinn svip
var sem tíminn stæði kyrr.
Ekkert var eins og fyrr.
Eftir svona upplifun
áttar maður sig.
Aldrei mun ég aftur sjá
neitt yndislegra en þig.
Því er ég andvaka,
eftir að hafa farið frá þér.
Ég er andvaka,
eftir að hafa verið hjá þér.
Andvaka.
Því að ég horfði í augun þín.
Ég vil ekki sofna neitt meir.
Andvaka,
eftir að hafa farið frá þér.
Ég er andvaka,
eftir að hafa verið hjá þér.
Andvaka,
því að ég horfði í augun.
Andvaka
Því að ég horfði í augun þín.
Horfði í augun þín.
Totally agree with you! This song would be perfect for eurovision! Everyone would get it and like it!
This is hypnotically beautiful..

Mögnuð 💚💙
Beautiful!
me recuerda tanto a la cancion de islandia del 87 en eurovision.... tiene el mismo encanto. una maravilla. gracias dani por colgarla.
Guðrún Árný er svo vanmetin. Þetta lag er svo vanmetið.

totally agree! 2006 was a wonderful söngvakeppnin with so many great songs
❤Je vous embrasse bragi mon prefere ❤ bonne nuit❤❤😢
Alltaf þegar ég er andvaka hugsa ég um þetta lag, 2012!!
this song was begging for a metal version - it only took DIMMA 14 years to do one
Merci pour moi chanteuse iceland pour representer l' eurovision merci beaucoup bisous you tube charmante emission merci a vous etc
This would have sailed through to the final if it had represented Iceland, no doubt about it ...
After such an emotion
one understands I will never lay my eyes on something more beautiful than you
For I have been sleepless...
oh, and I dont want to sleep again, no, no
Sleepless since I left you...
Andvaka means sleepless?
@@irondasgr yep, sleepless! :)
For I have been sleepless
since I left you
I am sleepless
because I was really with you
Sleepless because my eyes are still
in these eyes
Since I laid eyes on you
I remember you as if you haven't left off them
Time stood still
nothing was like before
Þarna hefði ísland unnið, en nei alltaf sent vonlaus lög
so here's a translation I took from a Greek Icelandic woman who translated it in Greek...
The night has a secret
In this night I am
alone with my thoughts
beautiful and hostile
All the things that seemed odd
I fully understand now
I had a new hope
when you came along
The Preselection, when Iceland decided not to win the ESC. Unbelievable.
Tell me about it. 2006 was perhaps our strongest preselection ever, full of fantastic songs, but we picked Silvia Night, who made a complete fool of us in Athens. Unbelievable.
kisses from turkey ;)
SUPER STUFF!(Ezz!)
hi everybody-is there any chance to find an english translation of this GREAT SONG?
Icelandic lyrics someone please?
geðveik lag!!!!
АААААААААдвааааааКааааааат!!! х)
Man eftir því að berja vegginn þegar Silvía fór út......ég veit að hún gerði þetta allt í gríni en án djóks?
@blablaaf Gáfnafar Íslendinga var ekki upp á marga fiska á þessum tíma :-)
@VladimireRU Silvia Night is our biggest mistake in ESC history. She only did a fool out of the Icelandic nation by her appearance in Athena.
It was just a bad timing for her. People were nowhere around used to "persona" entries back then and the role play they entail to pull off a parallel world to their act. Silvia Night was in fact very good at what she set out for creating.
@eScddenis everything was better than Silvía.
en það sama má nú ekki segja um hárið því miður :/
GOD she's ugly
nei djók :Þ
