@euromaitre His name is Roar Engelberg. He also played the pan flute in the Norwegian entry in Eurovision Song Contest 1996, when Elisabeth Andreassen song "I evighet"
Would this have won too? I actually think so. The juries would have fallen for the class this ballad has and Anita's charming and beautiful voice. I reckon this would have been a runaway winner as opposed to Bobbysocks narrow win.
@euromaitre yeah but you just have to agree that no country as Norway has as many percent of bad songs than any other country in history of Eurovision. To be fair they too have had also some of the best songs in the history of Eurovision like 88,93,95 and 96
Dette er mitt aller første minne fra Grand Prix. Likte denne aller best, men den tapte for la det swinge. Tross alt bra det gikk som det gikk, men det var synd at Skorgan var med akkurat i 1985 slik at hun ikke kunne ha vunnet den norske finalen.
Folk får gjøre som de vil, selv om det noen ganger kan være respektløst. Denne sangen fortjente ingen buing etter min mening. Det er dessuten svært få sanger som gjør det. Alle medlemmene i den profesjonelle juryen hadde denne som nummer en. Hvis du ikke liker den, er det helt fair, men buing fra publikum er litt dårlig gjort, da.
@euromaitre hmmmm I clearly said here that La det swinge was overrated so we obviously don't agree on that Norway deserved the victory. Finland was best in 1985
@euromaitre I don't like nearly all the Icelandic entries and I was for example really disappointed in Silvia Night being chosen in 2006. I voted that year for the song I think is one of the strongest ever from your national final Þér við hlið(By your side) with Regína Ósk who then took part in 2008 as member of Euroband with a song I think is ok but not great. If you search for My Eurovision top 23 Icelandic entries you can see a video from me with my ranking.
Synd for Anita at dette bidraget kom samtidig som La det Swinge. Hun ville vunnet alle årene rundt 1985! Kanskje hadde hun vunnet i Europa også?
This is one of the best songs in Norwegain eurovision! I love this song!! :)
I wish more of her albums would come on cd...
fantastisklåt.. denne og for vår jord er vel det beste vi har hatt med i esc.. anita du er suveren...we must learn to really appreciate you...
Une bonne représentante de la Norvège au Grand Prix Eurovision De La Chanson. .bravo!
Fantastisk sang, en av de vakreste jeg vet av. Husker hvor sinnsykt skuffa jeg ble da denne ikke vant.. Men det gikk jo ganske bra allikevel da :o)
Thats true, she compose most of the musc herself.
One of the greatest Norwegian female composers of all time
it was a massive surprise when she hit the gong at the end

better than la det swinge. This is a song with qality
Dette var sangen som fagjuryen ville sende til den internasjonale finalen i stedet for La det svinge.

takk for en nydelig sang.fra to unge sjønne mennesker.

this was such a brilliant song and a great singer! so much better than the Swiss (cheesy) winner!
Jeff Steed Swiss winner??
Anyone has the lyrics of this song?
God bless 1980s' styling.
This is much much better than the overrated La det swinge!!!!!!!!!
Kunne vært tvillingen til mamma! :)
Forstår den buingen når sangen er slutt

Undrar vem som hade vunnit ESC om Norge skickat henne i stället för Bobbysocks.
erik persson Tyskland ville det
