I've listened to the song like 50 times and I literally cry every time. That connection she feels to him and her home just kills me. Ugh, tearing up now just writing this lmao
As a Icelandic person living in the US I found the movie funny and not insulting. it´s the top movie in iceland right now :) My hometown is close to Húsavík :D
Hey hey. Good to hear you're not offended. As an American from Utah, I relate to mountains and seagulls lmao... I wanna visit your country. Maybe meet the mountain? ;p
Húsavík is my home town ,although I live at the moment abroad. And it is hilarious to follow the impact of one song/movie for my small village of 2300 people :) You guys are welcome to Húsavík any time!
@@Wiwibloggs Are not films that are on Netflix allowed to be nominated for an Oscar? I do think that this song is good enough for a nomination for best original song. We have a pandemic going on in the world so if only films showing at cinemas are allowed, there will be very few nominated next year, I think. I can´t imagine there are many people at cinemas these days even if the american people are allowed to go? Maybe I am wrong?
Yeah same!!! I saw Molly live 3 times last year and she was AMAZING!!! I even meet her one time and she was sooooo sweet!!🥰 I hope people start listen to her songs because she deserv It!!!🥰
@@Wiwibloggs the sound producer has actually said they blended Rachel's voice in with Molly's in parts because they had such similar tones, the scene in the hotel room where Sigrit is writing the song is all Rachel. She just couldn't take on the power they needed for Sigrit's voice.
I love that they captured the emotions of hearing the native language being sung on a large platform like Eurovision. I honestly got chills during that part and the line "where whales can live because they're gentle people." It made me feel like I was listening to a Eurovision song.
Deban is fierce 😂 I agree with him about the movie not being very realistic to the point that it ticked me off at times. But the songs are really good 😍
Yes I feel the same. Too many stereotypes and clichés was a bit off-putting for me, but I enjoyed the music in the film. It didn´t felt heartfelt and authentic enough so it´s difficult to engage yourself in the film and find it really moving. Also poor script and bad acting here and there. It was more cringeworthy than fun but to be fair, there were a few moments that I liked here and there.
Let´s vote that the entire cast of "Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga" as an interval act in 2021 would be a great comeback for Eurovision! Thumbs up if you think it´s a great idea! Eurovioson - we miss you!
The last time we won was 1997. Katrina and the Waves. I remember it well. They hosted the next contest in my home city Birmingham. Politics is always a big thing with this show, which is why the UK will never win again...because Europe hates us, even more so since Brexit.
I can get how Deban feels like this shouldn’t have been the way to introduce the song. I was hoping for a complete redemption for Double Trouble. Then they could sing this at the end of the competition where the change in production can be more believable. But the movie was already pretty long, with so many things they probably had to keep in. I’m still glad with how the second half of the movie turned out. It’s like one of those contestants who started a little shaky. But brought it home from the second chorus on.
I’ve watched Eurovision for many years with my family, when I heard Will Ferrell & Rachel McAdams we’re playing in the movie, was funny, happy & loved it so much watched it over the weekend & the music was amazing....and the way the incorporated the eurovision musicians with the singalong was brilliant. Well done....the elves were funny too. Yiayia ding dong 💖
This is the best Song I've ever heard. A typical 0 Pointer at such Songcontests BECAUSE there is no driving uptempo beat, no swedish Songwriter/Pop DJ behind, no Laser Lights, no Violins and no shitty background dancers; Just simply, Love, Emotions and origin language, criterias for a Zero pointer at ESC but the song itself is PURE MAGIC, and that is what the movie creators intended and the most important message of this "showdown".
This song is ON POINT!!! I literally got goosebumps and cried!! Such an awesome movie, with such a great balance of emotion and comedy!! And soooo many funny 1 liners!! eg: "The elves went too far!" I lost it with that line!! hahahaha
I love the message of love it brings to your heart but not also the leave that Eurovision is not about winning is all about bringing people together. #lovedyourpartofthemovie❤️
Goosebumps all over. But that stage was gorgeous, Hello! Expo Tel Aviv - ESC 2019. My favorite part was when Rachel McAdams was sucked into the Huge Mouse Wheel :=) I couldn't breath!
You Girls are a total kick!! ❤️ Love this song! The fact that WF is actually singing gives me all the feels. I hope that Iceland 🇮🇸 gets that this movie fills Americans with true goodwill toward their country. Love and peace, ya’ll!!
This song gives me goosebumps Everytime! I tear up Everytime! Douze Pointes goes to ICELAND!!! 💕❤️💕 Also, There are no bad Queen Latifah movies, PEROIDT. 👏
@@Wiwibloggs a couple years ago I tried to get my best friend the whole living single series. Found out they only released the first season and they were trying to get people to petition the release of the second season. Living Single and the House Party movies are choice Queen Latifah! Oh and Beauty Shop. I thought they were trying to cast her as Ursela in the new Little Mermaid movie! And, I am here for it!
@@Wiwibloggs also side note. Wouldn't it be AMAZING if they made a Eurovision series!!! It could be like Fame or Chorus Line, following different representatives from different countries on their road to Eurovision! Omgawwwd and each season could be a different decade. Guys.... Call EBU, we got a pitch!
Deban, I don't agree with a lot of your critique but you do make me LOL!! The song "Husavik" is Oscar-worthy and was a complete game-changer for the movie; it was like a DJ dragged the needle across a record to get our attention that this was indeed a LOVE STORY not only about ESC but between two lifelong companions. The reactions from the Icelandic jury and the friends and family back home really underscored the unrealized beauty of Sigritt's voice and her potential as an artist. It was truly heartening watching Lars give up his own lifelong dream so the woman he loves can shine in the spotlight. And yes, McAdams' lip syncing was the best ever.
Seems you guys like Molly Sandén. In her alter-ego "My Marianne", She and the twelve collective released a dance/house cover of an old Justin Timberlake song about 1 month ago. Hardly promoted anywhere.! Don't know if you guys are in to that kind of music, but if you are: look up "Twelve ft. My Marianne-I think she knows". For me its like: 1) the song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥, and 2) is there anything Molly can't pull off? 😎
There are some plotholes in the movie but a great song. I live 45 minutes from Husavik by car and can agree it is a nice town. The parts she sings in Icelandic are almost incomprehensible to Icelanders but it is "Með þér" as in "With you" and "Húsavík við Skjálfanda" meaning Husavik by the fjord of Skjalfandi
Husavik is a symbol of all our hometowns. It's a story of looking after and loving your own community, about looking after your local environment, unique animals and vegetation from wherever you are. So it hits a very contemporary tune vis a vis all the destructive forces of nature currently rampaging throughout our planet and destroying many of our homes and communities. Perhaps we owe it to our hometowns, to comeback from aboard (where most of us is) and give it back. Or stay in our new hometown and give it back :) That works too.
Me encantó la música! La película reúne todos los condimentos para disfrutar. Deberían participar el año que viene como invitados especiales... Saludos desde Argentina!
I wonder if Deban would have been more positive if he too was in the film, or if Will would have been less positive if he didn't appear in the movie :p
No, dont Think so.. on Molly Sandéns facebookpage you can see a clip from when she records the song and its all Molly.. but I think Rachels voice is included in some of the icelandic pub performances.
Annica Andersson I’ve watched various interviews and featurettes and the majority of them stated the two voices were combined. Molly recorded a studio version and Rachel sang it on set and they mashed up the two.
I'm sure Rachel actually sang this and then they dubbed it with Molly's voice which is why it looks so realistic? I know they did that with other songs anyway I'm not sure about this one, either that or it was a really good lip sync
Dan stevens was suppose to sing his song too but miss rona came and had to use the demo... Which is still pretty good. I wanna see his singing voice tho
This song mix is 100% Molly. The only time you hear Rachel sing Husavik is in the songwriting scene 🤗 Molly singing live: instagram.com/tv/CCExVa1BCKc/?igshid=10jkzy3soqvrs
If you had watched the interviews you would know it is not lip sync. Yes it is another voice but the director had Rachel actually sing. Then they took her vocals but blended them with Mandy’s beautiful and powerful voice so that it would not be lip sync. Rachel does do the vocals in Jaja Ding Dong.
He squirted me with half the bottle by accident before this was filmed and I swear we were about to have some Fire Saga of our own. My eyes are still BURNING.
The film was better than what I thought from other peoples reviews and reactions. For big Eurovision fans (like me)you cant think too deep about it you just have to take it for what it is a romantic comedy with Eurovision as the back story. Husavik is a fantastic song but for me will Ferrell shouldn't harmonise innit I think he spoils it.
Sara-Stina Bergstedt Rachel said she sang in the movie just so it was easier to blend Molly’s track with her acting. So the official audio doesn’t have her. It’s only in this version that we hear in the movie. They kept the exhale though. I wonder whose that is.
@Sara-Stina Bergstedt she's credited because she recorded it. Rachel's version was 'live' but not recorded to be mixed and produced. The people in the crowd couldn't hear a thing.
It has a similar sound to the amazing "Never Enough" from the movie The Greatest Showman. Loren Allred sang it in real life. Both remarkably beautiful songs.
She wasn’t lip syncing. For all the tracks of the movie, they made Rachel McAdams sing all the songs and they combined her track with Molly Sandén’s tracks. That’s why her performance looks realistic. It’s because she was singing herself hoarse.
you think the lip sync is good, it's because she is actually singing, it wasn't a pure lip sync. they post production merged her voice with molly's because they sounded very similar
it's such a good song, but rule-wise too long to be depicted as a legit Eurovision entry (although Will's character Lars previously disagreed and preferred Double Trouble).
technically, she didn't lip sync. Rachel actually sang the song and they blended a little bit of her voice with Molly Sanden (My Marianne) so it would look authentic. They did this to avoid it looking like lip syncing.
The movie is fun but my issue with the movie was indeed the OBVIOUS errors from a supposedly BIG fan of Eurovision as Ferrel claims to be. I mean really...how can a BIG fan miss such a clear error having Spain in the Semis or the number of people on stage? So for hardcore fans, which of course if the main target of this movie, those were annoying dumb errors. But on the other hand, the performances and over the top staging was very Eurovision like in many ways LOL I was hoping to see Sergey though, that was a let down. I could have been happier without the most arrogant and less gracious winner ever, Salvador Douche-bag.
These aren't accidental errors. It's just movie making 101. For example, they wanted to showcase the final voting system, but they had to show it during the semifinal because the main characters are disqualified and there'd be no point to show it during the final. It's not a documentary, it's a fictional film. Every film based on reality takes liberties like this. This one is a personal love letter from Will Ferrell, so it's his perspective on display. It's going to have some elements you're not a fan of and miss out on other things you feel should be obvious inclusions.
I wonder how many ESC contestants/winners the filmmakers approached who ultimately turned down participating in the film. Including Sergey would have pulled focus though because, well, obvious...
I honestly cried at this song when I watched the film, which is a first for any Will Ferrell film I’ve seen 😂😢
Right? It's really interesting to see him in this serious, emotional context! Loved this part of the movie!
I've listened to the song like 50 times and I literally cry every time. That connection she feels to him and her home just kills me. Ugh, tearing up now just writing this lmao
It makes me cry as well love it so much
Joseph, then you must see "Stranger Than Fiction" which is Will Ferrells without a doubt best film, it will literary blow you away.
As a Icelandic person living in the US I found the movie funny and not insulting. it´s the top movie in iceland right now :) My hometown is close to Húsavík :D
Hey hey. Good to hear you're not offended. As an American from Utah, I relate to mountains and seagulls lmao... I wanna visit your country. Maybe meet the mountain? ;p
Great 👍🏼❤️🙂🎶
Why would someone find this movie insulting?
Húsavík is my home town ,although I live at the moment abroad. And it is hilarious to follow the impact of one song/movie for my small village of 2300 people :) You guys are welcome to Húsavík any time!
It's on my bucket list so don't mind if I do 🤣. I'm respectful to the culture so no will ferell VS us situation 😅. I'm not American though I'm Dutch 😊
Why thank you Kristjan! You have the warm Husavik spirit!
Mollys Sandén’s voice Is EVERYTHING!!!🥰
She is OWNING THIS! I love her voice in this film so much!

Yeah same!!! I saw Molly live 3 times last year and she was AMAZING!!! I even meet her one time and she was sooooo sweet!!🥰 I hope people start listen to her songs because she deserv It!!!🥰
To furter ad to the nordic/ESC connection. Will Ferrell is married to a swedish actress and live part of the year in sweden.
She didn't lip sync, she told this in an interview, she herself sang the song to make it look real and after they pasted Molly's version over it.
Well it worked very well! Good for her!

She did lip sync, Molly Sandén sing this song.
I hope this and Double Trouble would be an Interval act during ESC2021
Oh I am READY
Amén!
Am I the only one who hopes Ja Ja Ding Ding is also included? They could have a lot of fun with it.
@@PennyPennyPennyPennyPenny It would be fun, but it's probably too explicit. Better stick with Double Trouble.
Despite the fact that Duncan didn't a cameo in the film, at least his piano and some lightning effects played a small role in this final song.
That's a lovely interpretation!
Húsavík in North Iceland now has a bar named JaJa Ding Dong ! ;)
I feel like in actual eurovision it would’ve gotten top 10, i’m not sure about winning but it would be a solid entry!
Right? Between the emotional lyrics and melody and Molly’s voice, it’s just 😭😭😭
I am from Edinburgh and have visited Husavik twice, 2008 and 2016, drove there overland from Reykjavik in a 4x4. Loved the film and the music!
I love that they captured the emotions of hearing the native language being sung on a large platform like Eurovision. I honestly got chills during that part and the line "where whales can live because they're gentle people." It made me feel like I was listening to a Eurovision song.
I totally agree with you. That line is so touching. I get so sad when I read about whale slaughter elsewhere.
No we are not at all offended :) We love this film and the songs, Ja Ja Ding Dong is one of the most popular songs in Iceland right now :)
Such a beautiful song! And it really makes me wanna go to Husavik hehe
Right? It's the most beautiful tourist advert!

Eurovision! Thumbs up if you think it´s a great idea! Eurovioson - we
miss you!
Oh Deban you are thinking way tooooo much about it all. 🤣
We all have different tastes and opinions about films.
The biggest joke in the movie is that the contest is hosted in Edinburgh. As if the UK would ever win again to be able to host, ha! :V
Edinburgh looked so beautiful!
The last time we won was 1997. Katrina and the Waves. I remember it well. They hosted the next contest in my home city Birmingham. Politics is always a big thing with this show, which is why the UK will never win again...because Europe hates us, even more so since Brexit.
OMG is trueeee! I didn’t catch that!
Actually Edinburgh has already hosted the Eurovision
Maybe Australia won and nominated the UK to host for them 😅
I cried my eyes out during this song
Loooove this! The swedish singer Molly Sande’n sing so beautiful. Will ♥️
I legit teared up during this song.
I can get how Deban feels like this shouldn’t have been the way to introduce the song. I was hoping for a complete redemption for Double Trouble. Then they could sing this at the end of the competition where the change in production can be more believable. But the movie was already pretty long, with so many things they probably had to keep in. I’m still glad with how the second half of the movie turned out. It’s like one of those contestants who started a little shaky. But brought it home from the second chorus on.
Oh these are interesting thoughts. Double Trouble did deserve redemption. Maybe there will be even bigger redemption in a sequel!

Thank you so much!! On July 7 I will tidy it a little but will keep it. I want to see how curly the curls will go!
I love his hair to
I cried my eyes out! As a huge Eurovision fan, this song could WIN!!
This song is ON POINT!!! I literally got goosebumps and cried!! Such an awesome movie, with such a great balance of emotion and comedy!! And soooo many funny 1 liners!! eg: "The elves went too far!" I lost it with that line!! hahahaha
This is a splendid song, beautiful, moving.
What would truly be awesome is if this movie helps generate tourism for Iceland! I know I want to go 😍
Right?! I am seriously prepared to go to Husavik!
I think Will tried to do them a solid by telling Americans not to go lol, even in the context of a joke. Don't want to be overrun
As long as you pay respect to the elfs (alfer)
This song is even better than the official entries of this eurovision 2020
It is pure FIRE!

Una gran voz!!! los pelos de punta una voz celestial, gran peli!!!
Love you, guys! Subscribing 😉you two absolutely compliment each other completely ❤️❤️❤️
guys i fuc.. love this song, its 100% oscar.

Of course she will be good a t lipsyncing since she's an actress and lipping is like form of acting. Rachel is amazing! :)
Such an ICON!
So glad u guys are back together 🙂
Thank you! God Bless the “support bubble”

I love u guys so much
The song his reached no 16 in the US and the top 10 in Ireland the Album reach no 1 in the UK as well as Ireland
William I LOVE your hair stunning
Thank you Ayoub! I am going to tidy it on Tuesday but will keep the top as it is!
Oscar nominated!
How can they react to the song when they’re talking through 90% of it?? It’s a great reaction to the scene in the movie buuuuut....
I was very supriced when a find out that it was Molly sining after watching the movie. Didn´t know that she could do a song on this level.
Love your hair William... gorgeous hair... love Husavik too!
Thanks Peggy! Lockdown has taught me to embrace it ❤️
I keep hearing never enough from the greatest showman
Like the song. Didn´t see the movie yet...
Love that AMAR PELOS DOIS is on the soundtrack
Beautiful❤️
Don't know a single offended Icelander because of this movie, It felt more like a little love letter to us rather then the opposite :)
If this song went to Eurovision for Iceland then Iceland would of defo won
The song was a mashup so parts of it was actually Rachel McAdams singing
No, dont Think so.. on Molly Sandéns facebookpage you can see a clip from when she records the song and its all Molly.. but I think Rachels voice is included in some of the icelandic pub performances.

😹😹😹😹😹
4:30 it's also Will's character realising that too and is willing to throw his dream away to make her happy
Guys! Do you know what i miss on this channel? Eurovision recaps!
Wiliam, you're starting to look like Harry Styles in his One Direction days.
Molly Sandén who is the singer tried it out in America but she was told to lose weight. So she packed her bags and returned to Sweden.
I'm sure Rachel actually sang this and then they dubbed it with Molly's voice which is why it looks so realistic? I know they did that with other songs anyway I'm not sure about this one, either that or it was a really good lip sync
You're right. Her actual singing is on period here!
@@Wiwibloggs it's so good! actually made my night ive got a reply from you too haha love this channel!
Dan stevens was suppose to sing his song too but miss rona came and had to use the demo... Which is still pretty good.
I wanna see his singing voice tho
Yes, Rachel did sing in all of her songs'.
They just mixed blend her voice with Molly's voice during production..
This song mix is 100% Molly. The only time you hear Rachel sing Husavik is in the songwriting scene 🤗 Molly singing live: instagram.com/tv/CCExVa1BCKc/?igshid=10jkzy3soqvrs

Thanks for your comment Stuart! Totally get your perspective. I am definitely curious what a Molly-only version would sound like
It's not actually lipsyncing it's a blend of Molly sanden and Rachel McAdams voice as they had similar intonations
Sara-Stina Bergstedt Rachel said she sang in the movie just so it was easier to blend Molly’s track with her acting. So the official audio doesn’t have her. It’s only in this version that we hear in the movie. They kept the exhale though. I wonder whose that is.

Is that a wi-wi wig?
Lol. It’s not. But you just snatched my wig 🤣
It's totally off topic....but William is so handsome with the new hairstyle
Thank you Kim!!!’ This pandemic has changed me in so many ways!
Deban seemed to be very over it and it kinda brought the whole video down.
I want Yohanna or Greta to cover this!
It would be so emotional.
Deban - Have you watched GLEE? Nothing there makes sense. Filming music sometimes requires some SOD - It doesn't mean it's bad.
She’s dressed like a lamp shade but that’s ok....we’ve seen it before....Selene dion. lol 😂
I'm also on TikTok with 3 videos. I hope you'll do a lot more there. Wiwibloggs would be awesome on TikTok!
The only thing that annoyed me about her lip sync is she never moves the mic away from her mouth which is not realistic during the big notes
they were at tel aviv?😂
this song sounds like a familiar one ive heard before, but i don’t remember what song exactly..anyone any ideas ?
It has a similar sound to the amazing "Never Enough" from the movie The Greatest Showman. Loren Allred sang it in real life. Both remarkably beautiful songs.
it was funny great
"Who Sean Connery?" LOL
She wasn’t lip syncing. For all the tracks of the movie, they made Rachel McAdams sing all the songs and they combined her track with Molly Sandén’s tracks. That’s why her performance looks realistic. It’s because she was singing herself hoarse.
you think the lip sync is good, it's because she is actually singing, it wasn't a pure lip sync. they post production merged her voice with molly's because they sounded very similar
Rachel and Molly both slayed this!
it's such a good song, but rule-wise too long to be depicted as a legit Eurovision entry (although Will's character Lars previously disagreed and preferred Double Trouble).
Play Jaja Ding Dong!
technically, she didn't lip sync. Rachel actually sang the song and they blended a little bit of her voice with Molly Sanden (My Marianne) so it would look authentic. They did this to avoid it looking like lip syncing.
The movie is fun but my issue with the movie was indeed the OBVIOUS errors from a supposedly BIG fan of Eurovision as Ferrel claims to be. I mean really...how can a BIG fan miss such a clear error having Spain in the Semis or the number of people on stage? So for hardcore fans, which of course if the main target of this movie, those were annoying dumb errors. But on the other hand, the performances and over the top staging was very Eurovision like in many ways LOL
I was hoping to see Sergey though, that was a let down. I could have been happier without the most arrogant and less gracious winner ever, Salvador Douche-bag.
I agree about Salvador douche bag.
These aren't accidental errors. It's just movie making 101. For example, they wanted to showcase the final voting system, but they had to show it during the semifinal because the main characters are disqualified and there'd be no point to show it during the final.
It's not a documentary, it's a fictional film. Every film based on reality takes liberties like this. This one is a personal love letter from Will Ferrell, so it's his perspective on display. It's going to have some elements you're not a fan of and miss out on other things you feel should be obvious inclusions.
???????????
It's a fictional movie? Never once they've claimed it as a documentary or a mockumentary??????????????
Creative license, perhaps?
I wonder how many ESC contestants/winners the filmmakers approached who ultimately turned down participating in the film.
Including Sergey would have pulled focus though because, well, obvious...
It's actually Rachel McAdams' voice mixed with Molly Sanden's so she isn't lip syncing
Don't cut your hair again this fits you better than your bald head
lol! thank you for this harsh but honest appraisal!
That was a very fast reply-
