This Icelandic version is much better

[@jlhabitan50]

This song may have a chance in Eurovision if it was in Icelandic. :(

[@snail007y069]

This song is beautiful in Icelandic, average in its English version.

[@gabrshed8058]

He's so goddamn gorgeous oh my

[@Yarshy.]

In love with this boy's voice.

It's a shame that whereas composers seem to feel a need for Anglicising their song submissions, the public are in fact much more into the original versions. Just perform in Icelandic please.

[@frankbischof248]

I get goosebumps with this Icelandic version, but the English version destroys all these great emotions. What a pity that this song will not be sung in Icelandic.

[@NathalieHoran]

I know he won't, but it would have been so amazing to hear this song in Icelandic in Eurovision

[@ladymandychee]

He made me to get goosebumps in Icelandic. Please, send this version instead of English one. How long does the country not send an entry in its own language?

[@scorpioninpink]

Mandy-chee In their case 5 years.

[@romischetavernamusicavinir814]

2013 their had an Islandic Language Song! 'Eg á Lif von Eybór Ingi Gullaugson'!

[@dzastin0713]

In case of Sweden, have like 20 years or something like that XD

[@skylarairo2144]

i love it

[@heinnhoskuldsson9175]

Ari ætti frekar að syngja á íslensku í Lissabon. Fólki líkar betur við það svo að þá ætti hann meiri séns að komast í úrslitin í Eurovision. 🙏🏼

[@frankbischof248]

With this great Icelandic version, Ari would have been my No. 1 in ESC final.

[@mancazupan1788]

This is one of the rare songs that deeply touched my heart and brought tears in my eyes. It is perfect in every way - melody, lyrics, Ari's beautiful voice and emotion he puts into singing it. I also love it better in original language. Anyway, thank you so much for sending it to Eurovision. I'm truly sorry it didn't reach final, but you are really an amazing performer and you did great work! Ari, I wish you the best of luck in your career and I'm looking forward to your next performances! Love from Slovenia ❤

[@annak2362]

Guðdómlegt lag. Ég hélt aldrei að ég ætti eftir að kjósa í undankeppni Eurovision en ég gat bara ekki annað en kosið þetta tvisvar... Í alvöru talað, þó að þetta vinni ekki þá er þetta allavega eitt fallegasta og flottasta lag ever, hehe.

[@HerraSmyrill]

Frábært lag. Gæti meira að segja gert góða hluti í Lissabon en helst með íslenska textanum.

[@annak2362]

Það væri synd að skemma þetta með enskum texta.

[@claireobrien3861]

You should have won, this is beautiful

[@klarinetta]

Flott rödd og vaxandi serstaklega eftir að hafa séð myndbandið

[@hildasnails5961]

Þetta er svo mikið betra á íslensku. Svo synd að hann syngur á ensku. Hann er samt ágætur

[@NewLegend1998]

I think this song is amazing and his voice... oh dear

[@cherylbaker4290]

He is hot

[@ellyiggy]

Why didn't you sent the Icelandic version? It sounds so much better!

[@panospap4544]

I really love this song. I feel bad for not qualified. But I prefer that in English..❤❣

[@Resser1999]

Í augum þeirra sem mæta mér Leynist mósaík minninga Óteljandi myndir af gleði og sorgum Af þeim aðeins lítil brot þú sérð Ég leita að leiðinni heim Við leitum að leiðinni heim Það heyja allir sálarstríð Í einmanaleikans byl Við getum öll hjálpað til Þá lifnar þitt hjarta við Á hlýrri sumarnóttu Fagurt brosið dáleiddi mig Augun full af skilningi, ástríðu og ótta Ótta við að finna aftur til Ég leita að leiðinni heim Við leitum að leiðinni heim Það heyja allir sálarstríð Í einmanaleikans byl Við gætum öll hjálpað til Þá lifnar kannski hjartað við Ef gæfan blæs okkur í hag Ég læt sem ekkert vont sé að En stundum dimmir hratt Og myrkrið hylur dag Ég leita að leiðinni heim Við leitum að leiðinni heim Það heyja allir sálarstríð Í einmanaleikans byl Við getum öll hjálpað til Við saman gætum hjálpað til

[@jj-of3vk]

Resser1999 i can read this, im icelandic

[@Adelia2009]

Исландский язык прекрасен!

[@franciscobranco]

Send this version pleaseeee

[@robbert89rl]

The melody and voice are very good. Please sing this in Icelandic, the English words are cringeworthy and cliche. It's better not to understand it and sing it in Icelandic

[@tyronesomuah6077]

heys going to eurovision yess

[@nikapuig7519]

I've got the same opinion as pretty much everyone else it seems: Please sing the song in Icelandic in Lisbon ! If it's still possible to change..? The song is so beautiful, Ari's voice is amazing and Icelandic is such a beautiful language, so it could do very well! The problem is the far too cheesy English lyrics though :s Should it really fail to qualify because of a poor choice of language? :o

[@colbyaguilar161]

I). You're hot. II). Good luck. I would vote, but I can't... unfortunately. Love from the United States.

[@243sigrun]

Hann er æðislegur,minnir á Johnny Logan.

[@maritvdhoek]

Wowww Icelandic is actually a BEAUTIFUL language😍 I think they should kept it in Icelandic although I also love the English version❤

[@rafa3able]

Æði

[@daskamel]

Portúgal!

[@axlkochubey2701]

icelandic sounds so much better than english

[@AkuBuru]

[@scorpioninpink]

Send it in Icelandic. The English is corny af.

[@user-dx6ve6uh3r]

OMG. Желаю тебе победы!

[@xxbeggixx]
