María Ólafs performing the song Unbroken written by StopWaitGo María Ólafs: / mariaolafsottir StopWaitGo: www.stopwaitgo.is/ Ice Cold Music Group: www.icecoldstu...
By far my favourite. One of, if not the best Icelandic entries I know! From the current selection for this year, my 12 Points is going to Iceland! Good luck from the United Kingdom!
Love it, her voice is so strong so clear, i hope it wins. I do want Iceland to win ESC, they deserve it. We have to make it happen for them. Support Iceland guys! Greetings from the Netherlands :)
She is singing about her break up and she is walking away from her Ex that is the meening of this song and she is gonna stay strong after the break up it is the best eurovision song ever made love it elska þig María þú ert bara lang best👌
If you listen to the song and watch the performance you'll see, and since your name is Icelandic, I'm guessing you've heard the song and seen the performance a bunch of times, but now try to watch it and listen with those 2 songs in mind and see what happens.
As you can see the logo of Eurovision 2015 Vienna is "Building bridges". But in 2016 will be " Eurovision song contest 2016 Reykjavik! The logo will be "Building Ice" (or ices haha) well my point is GOOOOOO ICELAND!!!
Unbroken María Ólafsdóttir A step at a time Into the distance One foot in front of the other A step at a time Try to forget you Although you said forever I'm letting go-o-o Go-o-o A step at a time Get out of the darkness And into the light Forever A step at a time I pick up the pieces Try putting them back together Till I'm unbroken Unbroken A step at a time Get out of the darkness And into the light Forever A step at a time And I've got a feeling It's either now or never I'm letting go-o-o Go-o-o A step at a time Get out of the darkness And into the light Forever A step at a time I pick up the pieces Try putting them back together Till I'm unbroken Unbroken A step at a time Get out of the darkness And into the light Forever I'm letting go-o-o Go-o-o Go-o-o A step at a time I pick up the pieces Try putting them back together Till I'm unbroken Unbroken Yeah, yeah… Yeah, yeah… Forever
This is very strange. I have listened to this song very, very many times but never to this version. I instantly reacted on the lyrics, in this version she sings "a step at a time" but at the Eurovision Song Contest she sung "one step at a time". The lyrics is different, at the beginning (~00:04) she sings "into the distance" but according to eurovision.tv she is supposed to sing "out of the darkness" first. I do not understand this, is it really María Ólafsdóttir that is singing this version? Sources: th-cam.com/video/d4jntcwV5CM/w-d-xo.html , www.eurovision.tv/page/history/year/participant-profile/?song=32913 .
Her last name is Ólafsdóttir which means that she is the daughter of Ólafur (first name of her father) hence Ólafs - dóttir (daughter). In Iceland family names are unusual; Icelandic law favours the use of patronyms (and more recently, matronyms) over family names.
Bjarki Kristjánsson This song treats about someone who was really depressed and broken (maybe because of a break-up) and who recovered and became happy again ;-)
Frasier Jones And its about her process of healing. "One step at a time. And then eventually i will fully heal and be able to get over you" would be the whole meaning
THE SIGN OF JONAH. According to the Bible, the Messiah returns to destroy Babylon very soon. We know the year according to the times of the prophets, although it is not known the day nor the hour. To prepare ourselves, our Father, the Supreme Creator, has revealed to us the Sign of Jonah. This is the Sign of Jonah prophetized by Yahshua Hamashiach in Matthew 12:39; Matthew 16:4; Luke 9:41 and Luke 11:29; for this faithless and adulterous generation, which is the same who killed the Messiah according to Revelation 1:7. In 1968, the Israeli submarine INS Dakar suddenly disappeared in the Mediterranean Sea. "Dakar" means "to vomit" in Hebrew. This is why the Book of Jonah explains that the "big fish" or "whale" vomited Jonah on the beach. In 1969, the Dakar submarine S.O.S buoy was found by a fisherman in the coast of "Khan Yunis", which means "Prophet Jonah". In 2008, it has been found an incorrupt corpse in Kurdistan (the place of the biblical Nineveh), where Jonah went to preach. He carries a golden slab in the chest, with the figure of the submarine; and there is another plate of gold on the stomach, with the figure of a bird, because "Yona" in Hebrew means "dove". By the Book of Jonah, we know that the prophet asked the Lord not see corruption in death. There, we can read too that they "cast locks" on his head (because the hatches of the submarine); and also that he could watch the bases of the mountains (through the skylights of the submarine). You can check the body of Jonah, seeking "Iran Mummy" on You Tube. The Lord of lords comes back soon.
Such a good song! Can't stop listening to it! 12 points from the UK!!
By far my favourite. One of, if not the best Icelandic entries I know! From the current selection for this year, my 12 Points is going to Iceland! Good luck from the United Kingdom!

Such an impressive voice, she certainly deserves to represent İceland. Regards from the UK! ;)
This has a really Yohanna-ey vibe, which as we know is a good thing.
One of my favourites so far.
Definetly this is the best song in all NF this year, Iceland deserves a victory and it can be this year if you send this song, greetings from Spain

Bravo Iceland!!! Greetings from Poland :)

Love this song! I hope Iceland will be smart and vote for María..she will do great in Vienna!
Verð bara að segja frábært lag og söngkona vona að María ólafs vinni þetta ekta evrovision lag ::
Very good! First place in my top 12 of eurovision!
Ty!
I'm telling you that if this song will go out for Iceland then it will be getting probably 12/12 points from nearly every land!! Love this song
One of the best so far
most underrated song in the competition. this should be the winner
I'm really hoping Iceland will do better this year than the last years! This song is wonderful, I love it
Excellent song! I have a good feeling about this song in Eurovision this year. I think it could go far. Maybe even top 5, dare I say 1st place?
Okei ándjóks þetta verður að vinna! Eigum lang mesta möguleika með þessu lagi!
She is singing about her break up and she is walking away from her Ex that is the meening of this song and she is gonna stay strong after the break up it is the best eurovision song ever made love it elska þig María þú ert bara lang best👌
I'm still shocked she didin't qualify. Love you Maria. I will keep supporting your music. Greetings from Chile
This sounds so much better in English. The lyrics are amazing and so is the singing. Can't wait to see this in Austria :D
Very nice contribution from Iceland! Could see this song go far in Eurovision :-)
Magnificent :) 12 points from Hungary! :)
Ty!
Only Teardrops + Let It Go = Unbroken :D
No much better than both of those songs.
Because she's not wearing shoes and the lyrics say: Letting go! Yeah? definately the same.... not
Ragnhildur Gunnarsdottir It's rather because the song and performance is like "Only teardrops" and the voice and song are like "Let it go".
Not at allt, I just can't see the similarity, I must be deaf
If you listen to the song and watch the performance you'll see, and since your name is Icelandic, I'm guessing you've heard the song and seen the performance a bunch of times, but now try to watch it and listen with those 2 songs in mind and see what happens.
This is a perfect song!
This year Iceland will receive votes from Spain in Eurovision sure! Great song and great country. I love Iceland :p
Langflottust ;) ég ætla að kjósa hana!
Alveg sammála :)
Great song! (still have to get used to the eng version, though). It's the best song in the Sðngvakeppni, and it could easily be a TOP 5 in Vienna.
I prefer this version!
As you can see the logo of Eurovision 2015 Vienna is "Building bridges". But in 2016 will be " Eurovision song contest 2016 Reykjavik! The logo will be "Building Ice" (or ices haha) well my point is GOOOOOO ICELAND!!!
she won yessssssss
the best song from Eurovision 2015 so far
This has winning potential
this one is my favorite >.<
Congrats Iceland!
12 points from spain! x
nice work Iceland now its on the nordic music list :D
Really good. One of the very few that are.
All this needs is a Key change on the last chorus and it would be a hands down winner. This is my favourite so far.
Ég ætla að kjósa þetta lag. Þetta á mestu möguleikana úti. Happy Eurovision. :)
YES! best choice for Iceland :-)
Fallegt og flott !!! En það fer ekki út nema við kjósum....... svo dial in people :D

Unbroken
María Ólafsdóttir
A step at a time
Into the distance
One foot in front of the other
A step at a time
Try to forget you
Although you said forever
I'm letting go-o-o
Go-o-o
A step at a time
Get out of the darkness
And into the light
Forever
A step at a time
I pick up the pieces
Try putting them back together
Till I'm unbroken
Unbroken
A step at a time
Get out of the darkness
And into the light
Forever
A step at a time
And I've got a feeling
It's either now or never
I'm letting go-o-o
Go-o-o
A step at a time
Get out of the darkness
And into the light
Forever
A step at a time
I pick up the pieces
Try putting them back together
Till I'm unbroken
Unbroken
A step at a time
Get out of the darkness
And into the light
Forever
I'm letting go-o-o
Go-o-o
Go-o-o
A step at a time
I pick up the pieces
Try putting them back together
Till I'm unbroken
Unbroken
Yeah, yeah…
Yeah, yeah…
Forever
Yaaayy my favorite won
Go Iceland go :)

ICELAND I BEG YOU.
FRIDRIK WON'T GET YOU A GOOD RESULT AT EUROVISION. MARIA WILL.
PLEASE VOTE FOR MARIA.
MARÍA.
chocmint777 nop
Funny that people say it reminds them of 'Let it Go' and her surname is "Olaf"s :)
Her last name is Ólafsdóttir which means that she is the daughter of Ólafur (first name of her father) hence Ólafs - dóttir (daughter).
In Iceland family names are unusual; Icelandic law favours the use of patronyms (and more recently, matronyms) over family names.
KJÓSA KJÓSA KJÓSA KJÓSA PEOPLE!!! HÚN Á AÐ VINNA EKKI BJÖRN EÐA FRIKKI HÚN! KJÓSA MARÍU ¨!!!!!!!

nkl
karen arna hann er fínn..bara ekki keppnis material...ekki eurovision material..
i love it! but why is it called unbroken and not a step at a time?
What is the song really about? step at a time or being unbroken? Both work, I like Unbroken better though :)
the icelandic version was "lítil skref" which means little steps.
Bjarki Kristjánsson This song treats about someone who was really depressed and broken (maybe because of a break-up) and who recovered and became happy again ;-)
Frasier Jones yes
Frasier Jones And its about her process of healing. "One step at a time. And then eventually i will fully heal and be able to get over you" would be the whole meaning
Repeat repeat and repeat ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
elska það/love it

Like
Rosalega flott lag!
Eda komst afram

😀
Heyrðu, hvaða kjaftæði er þetta?
Björn og Co. var svo MIKLU betra.
En jæja, vonandi gengur þér vel í Vín.
Hahaha, nei xD Björn og félagar var alveg glatað
The Icelandic version was better and was more powerful lyrically, in my opinion.
Almost the same as Emmelie de Forest,,,, Its a clone ohnoooww
Much better in Icelandic. Changing the lyrics to English was a terrible move.
One can certainly say the Icelandic version is much better, a shame she'll sing in English, but what can we do. þessi færeyingur ætlar að kjósa þig.
THE SIGN OF JONAH.
According to the Bible, the Messiah returns to destroy Babylon very soon. We know the year according to the times of the prophets, although it is not known the day nor the hour. To prepare ourselves, our Father, the Supreme Creator, has revealed to us the Sign of Jonah.
This is the Sign of Jonah prophetized by Yahshua Hamashiach in Matthew 12:39; Matthew 16:4; Luke 9:41 and Luke 11:29; for this faithless and adulterous generation, which is the same who killed the Messiah according to Revelation 1:7.

In 2008, it has been found an incorrupt corpse in Kurdistan (the place of the biblical Nineveh), where Jonah went to preach. He carries a golden slab in the chest, with the figure of the submarine; and there is another plate of gold on the stomach, with the figure of a bird, because "Yona" in Hebrew means "dove".
By the Book of Jonah, we know that the prophet asked the Lord not see corruption in death. There, we can read too that they "cast locks" on his head (because the hatches of the submarine); and also that he could watch the bases of the mountains (through the skylights of the submarine).
You can check the body of Jonah, seeking "Iran Mummy" on You Tube. The Lord of lords comes back soon.
