Couldnt be more appropriate Its about when the cold dark winter when the sun is missing for most of the day is at its high point, then spring and the rising sun of the icelandic summer is comming signaling hope
Half a ballad half a lullaby. The best song and performance I've listened to in quite a long time. By far, the greatest song in the contest. Good luck in the Final.
Just because the song doesn't reach the fervent Eurovision fans, doesn't mean it does not have a public! Nice harmonies, easy on the ear, beautifully sang! Glad it qualified!
@@ronfarkas I'm still enjoying all those 'fans' blaming switzerland and moldavia and legit treatening them for ronela no qualifying. Like just keep it to her performance, why do they need to bring them in it? Anyways its shocking yet funny how some people can't accept people have a different taste!
I feel so bad for not paying attention to this song before. This song is actually one of the better ones in this year's contest and really deserve its spot in the Final. Congratulations to Iceland🇮🇸!
The queens remained united, calm and focused to getting what they deserved. You're right before no one paid attention but now it 's time to go on stage and shine and get the proper attention they lost before. 💪🏼✌🏼
Thank you very much. I voted for Ukraine they had one of the most epic acts in ESC history. They mix lots of styles together that just clicks and they make it their own but still you can clearly hear where the roots are coming from. And lastly they are so sincere in their performance I just believe every words from the lead singer although I don't understand Ukrainian. With love from Iceland ❤
@@klarinetta Thank you! And I love your performers. I don't understand lyrics (except the title itself 😄) but the performance is unlike anything else and so nice and relaxing
This is insanely good 🥺❤ I get chills every time listening to this song, it's sooo charming and calming. And Icelandic language is sooo beatiful. Love and 12 points from Ukraine 🇺🇦❤🇮🇸
As an Icelander, this is nice to hear. It sucks they ended up in one of the last places. To me, and I really mean it unbiased way, it's so beautiful. Different than the mmtjh-mmtjh! - and the lyrics are beautiful. Well done for Iceland, I wish they'd have gotten more, because they'd have deserved it.
If there's something we understood very clearly from the Eurovision movie is that Iceland and its people vote their representative based on what feels good. If it's a winning song or not, that's secondary for them. This song feels really good when you listen to it, and that's why I love it so much.
Yeah, Icelanders were not positive about this song and were very jugdemental towards the girls to the point people started bullying them on the internet. Everyone thought they wouldn’t qualify, but they prooved them wrong and i’m so glad that happened.
i entered a trance state during their whole performance. the performance captivates you in a soothing and relaxing way! i can't explain but so happy they qualified for the grand final! good luck Iceland 🇮🇸
As someone who listened a lot to scandinavian metal, these harmonies hit hard. Lovely language, arrangement, by far the best song. Well, almost, Moldova is fire too 😎
Hæ!! For the first time I will vote for Eurovision. And I asked myself *"What would be the song with the greatest support from musicians"* . I discovered that whoever is for pure music, has a song to vote for. Here's the answer: MARO, Saudade saudade... 🎶🤍The favorite song of the following musicians: Systur Diodato Enes Tahirovic Jacob Collier Quincy Jones Teresa Salgueiro Salvador Sobral Ivan Lins Luísa Sobral Sílvia Pérez Cruz Pablo Alborán Gjon's Tears Tatanka Surie James Newman Mia Dimšić Rosa Linn Citi Zēni Vladana Konstrakta S 10 Amanda Tenfjord... Pure music sometimes wins! gangi þér vel!🍀
Yaaaay, I'm so happy the girls qualified! They are so charming, feel each other's energy, and the whole performance is so well-balanced and tender. Congrats to Iceland from Ukraine!
My dad usually hates Eurovision and refuses to watch it, but this year he decided to watch with me and he is pleasantly surprised by the number of great songs. He really likes this one!
Iceland, I never knew about your entry until tonight's semi finals, and you instantly won me. You have my vote both from heart and televote in finals! Big love from Croatia
Μετά τα σχόλια άκουσα την Ισλανδία για να δω πόσο ωραίο είναι αυτό το τραγούδι,όπως και την σκηνική παρουσία γιατί το θυμόμουν σαν ένα υποτονικό τραγούδι και επιβεβαίωσα την αρχική αίσθηση που είχα.Ενα γλυκαναλωτο τραγουδάκι όπως έχουμε συνηθίσει να στέλνουν οι περισσότερες ευρωπαϊκές χώρες τόσα χρόνια στην Eurovision,χωρίς δυναμική,το δε σκηνικό της με φώτα,τίποτα το ιδιαίτερο.Ας νικήσει η καλύτερη παρουσία ψηφίζοντας ομως με σωστό κριτήριο και γούστο. Η Ελλάδα έχει ένα ωραίο,ευαίσθητο τραγούδι με δυνατή φωνή και υποβλητική,καθηλωτικη παρουσία.Σε σχέση με τα περισσότερα σούπες τραγουδάκια είναι πολύ καλύτερη.
@@ΜαρίαΚιτ-ν8ζ everybody has obviously different taste and Eurovision is all about diversity, and that includes voters individual tastes too.Greece has nice entry this year but personally I prefer Iceland this year. You know the feeling when you go in store, and accidentaly find piece of clothes of your taste that fits you perfectly in every sense? Similar feeling comes to choosing favorite song in Eurovision and people judge by their own criteria. Staging is indeed one of judging factors, but for me if song "takes me over" (and that can be solely song itself) my votes goes for that. Good luck in finals!
This year, *Saudade Saudade (MARO - Portugal #3) is the favourite song ❤️🎵🎧 of many famous musicians* like the SYSTUR...I love both songs. Gangi þér vel
I fell in love with it on the first listen it gave me nostalgic,calm,touch and fantastic interpretation I am very happy to hear this song in the Eurovision final I'm very proud of the result. Love from Greece and good luck.🤍🇬🇷
I'm so happy for them, I remember how much fans were hating on them because the other girlband didn't win. Nice to see Iceland keep their qualification streak strong and I really want them to win and host one day.
By far the most interesting, atmospheric and lyrical song in the Eurovision of 2022. Their voices are so nice together! And beautiful language. My vote.
Með Hækkandi Sól in the Final! What a beautiful moment we will have on Saturday! And Saudade too! I would love to see MARO & Systur one day! And I know that Systur joined so many musicians everywhere who love the magical jewel of Portugal... The future of music is collaborative! Music is a weapon of love! ❤️
I still can't believe when Iceland qualified, its early morning in Indonesia and i shout like crazy even distrub my Neighbor and room mate Happy for iceland, well deserved grand final. 🇮🇩 ❤ 🇮🇸
Listening to this song, make me feel like i'm covering with the soft warm blanket on a cold winter night. Magical song and the beautiful performance. 12 points from 🇺🇦❤🇮🇸
So glad songs in national languages advanced !!! Iceland Portugal Lithuania Ukraine Moldova and of course the Netherlands !!! Well done Europe bravo 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
It's a song about hope. In Iceland days (where the sun is up) are very short during the winters and very long during the summer, this makes the winter hard to bear. But there is light at the end of the tunnel because at the peak of the misery, the day starts to grow longer as spring approaches. This is very relevant to the bad things happening as of late. It is a song to all who suffer, a reminder of good times after the bad, a reminder of hope.
I love how the audience got behind this song even though no one speaks Icelandic outside of Iceland. Hope it wins, it was my surprise favourite of the night - great performance!
@@liz4460 Im not sure it'll win now because Ukraine is very popular and no one speaks Icelandic but I liked it myself anyway. It was a very good performance much better than the songs video online
I knew Systur could qualify❤🇮🇸 I love that they added that long note at the end. It really matches the whole song's TWD vibe. Probably it will end up like Portugal last year (hope so!)
Quoted from one of the sisters: "During the winter months in Iceland we loose alot of daylight. Days get darker and longer and in the darkest winter months we only get sunlight a small part of the day. But from around December 20th the sun starts to rise earlier and set later each day. We have the saying for this period for the sun as being "með hækkandi sól" that could translate to "with the sun getting higher each day". Originally it was written as a point of view from a 18th or 19th century icelandic woman who was in 'Vistarband'. The Icelandic vistarband was a requirement that all landless people be employed on a farm. Poor people did not really have any control of their lives and were forced to work for others and live under their rule. But the lyrics can also be related to anyone in many and all sorts of situations. Seeing some hope with the sun getting higher and days getting warmer." ✌🏻 Thank you for the support! It means so much! 👏👏 And good luck to Spaceman! 🧡🚀
So quiet and relaxing song! I love Iceland even more after this music. Now I'm listening to it in repeating whole evening. Thank you for your talent! With huge love from Ukraine 💙💛
I love this so much! It is such a peaceful and beautiful song and I really like the 60s theme to the outfits and staging! I hope this does well in the final! Love from the UK! 🇬🇧
Listening to this is like getting wrapped in a warm blanket. It's so beautiful!
My thought precisely
I couldn't agree more.
perfectly said !
The best description ever.
Couldnt be more appropriate
Its about when the cold dark winter when the sun is missing for most of the day is at its high point, then spring and the rising sun of the icelandic summer is comming signaling hope
This is why Eurovision is important and really good way to show our differences, cultures.
That’s right
exactly! who needs a multicultural pot which results in meshed-up nothingness? We are beautiful in all our differences.
I disagree. This song is one of very few this year where you can actually learn about their culture. Most other songs sound super generic.
@@qazplmm632 He meant exactly that
So refreshing to have a song that's not in English.
Half a ballad half a lullaby. The best song and performance I've listened to in quite a long time. By far, the greatest song in the contest. Good luck in the Final.
Icelandic is just a beautiful language, I'm thrilled for them... No dancers, fancy props etc just pure singing talent 🤗
Its so hard to learn. Im from iceland and couldn’t speak it perfectly till i was 10
Just because the song doesn't reach the fervent Eurovision fans, doesn't mean it does not have a public! Nice harmonies, easy on the ear, beautifully sang! Glad it qualified!
huge eurovision fan here, loved this song since the release and loved even more this performance. voted for it, and glad it went through 🥰
Beautiful harmonies, indeed. And great '70s style and aesthetic :)
This semi final was a lesson in how social media stan bubbles and online 'odds' don't mean anything
@@ronfarkas I'm still enjoying all those 'fans' blaming switzerland and moldavia and legit treatening them for ronela no qualifying. Like just keep it to her performance, why do they need to bring them in it? Anyways its shocking yet funny how some people can't accept people have a different taste!
I am a fervent Eurovision fan with Albania, Iceland and Portugal as my three favourites. 🤣😍😘👏
I feel so bad for not paying attention to this song before. This song is actually one of the better ones in this year's contest and really deserve its spot in the Final. Congratulations to Iceland🇮🇸!
I totally agree with you, this is my favorite entry from sf1! Greetings from 🇲🇪
This is not your fault everyone's taste was busy with fast food zoom zoom boom boom ah yeah ah yeah songs
But who asks?

I honestly think that they are this years "Common Linnets": At first overlooked by most and then suddenly being supported by all...
Dark horse this year, truly an amazing performance
