I think the best with Cornelia Jakobs on stage is that she is real with her emotions. If she wrote the lyrics, she can show and experience them during the performance truly. People look for this kind of truth in art and she gives it. You can take part in her story while she performs and she shares her feelings. People come to events for this kind of experiencing

Yes, and the lyrics are quite simple and the english is easy (but deep and emotional) to understand even for people who aren't very good in English. I also think that even people who doesn't understand english at all will feel the emotion. I haven't felt this hopeful about one of our songs since Måns.

It's insane how often I agree with Deban. Almost always he literally says what I'm thinking.
LOL 45mins of the Deban & William dynamic, I'm living for it! My personal Nordic top 5 different to both of theirs... 5. Jezebel - It just ain't for me 4. Hold Me Closer - I can see the quality, it just ain't for me 3. The Show - takes a bit to get going, the drums go off! That leaves me with a good feeling. 2. Með hækkandi sól - the harmonies are lovely, the vibe is a nice counterpoint to a lot of the other songs. Probably not a strong competition song, but I really dig it 1. Give That Wolf A Banana - quality production with hilarious lyrics and fun performance? Sign me up!

Denmark is one of the most underrated song this year...I never hear people talking about it. Heja Sverige! 🇸🇪

Top 5!! xx 1) Sweden 2) Norway 3) Denmark 4) Finland 5) Iceland
If there was a drinking game for 'take a sip everytime William removes his glasses'.. people would be well on the floor!! Totally agree with William's order.. Sweden to win the whole thing, and hopefully Norway and Finland get top 10. All three are worthy and deserving of it in this year's pack and the quality of their songs.
Thank you Deban!!! The Rasmus are amazing!!!!!
Norway is the best Nordic act this year

My top 5 of the Nordic entries (I'm a Norwegian myself, but will put Norway in the list) 1. The Rasmus 🇫🇮 2. Cornelia Jacobs 🇸🇪 3. Subwoolfer 🇸🇯 4. Reddi 🇩🇰 5. Iceland🇮🇸 I think all the countries chose great songs definetly, although I doubt they will all make it to the grand final. I believe my top 3 is a certain Q, but with Iceland and Denmark i'm conflicted (but I personally like their songs a lot too). I agree that Sweden will win the jury votes, and I think Norway will do really well with televotes, but not jury😅 I love all the songs and I wish them the best of luck! I really look forward to seeing them all perform live in ESC soon! 😍

Denmark is my last place here definitely. Iceland is fine and really atmospheric, but it doesn't work for me too much. Finland is awesome and is in my top 10. But Norway and Sweden... bringing so much quality in 1 year is unbelievable. Both of them are in my top 2 overall and I can't chose a winner.

I completely agree with william about cornelia! at first I thought the song was kinda boring, until I saw her live performance and live vocals. She gives the song more character and soul. If the performance were more "perfect" I wouldn't care about the song at all.
My opinion is that the two best Nordics, in two completly different way, is Sweden and Norway. BUT Sweden win the SONG competition and that way Norway being in second place. Norway have no song, they have a funny stageing, like Russians Verka Serduchka or Germanys Dschinghis Khan. So finally, I believe in, support and hope for Sweden, but don’t be sad if Norway get better place. 👍🏽
When are you gonna react to the SF2 running order?
I love how unpredictable and all-over-the-place Deban is with his critique. Norway singing ”give that wolf a banana” is ridiculous, but Finland singing about "a killer shark in heels" is somehow... not? 😂 Also, shouldn't success in ESC be based on the competing song - and not on an artist/band’s old merits?

I feel like this is the *BEST* year for all the Nordic countries *combined* in a very long time! Even the entries I don't really like much are still good on themselves! As you may guess from my rank, 3 of the Nordics belong in my personal top 6 of ESC 2022, haha. Here's my personal top 5, my winners of the entire show included in bold 🇬🇷❤: *1. "Með Hækkandi Sól" 🇮🇸 (10/10)* *2. "Hold Me Closer" 🇸🇪 (10/10) *3. "Give That Wolf A Banana" 🇸🇯 (10/10) 4. "The Show" 🇩🇰 (6/10) 5. "Jezebel" 🇫🇮 (4/10)
1. Sweden 🇸🇪 ❤️ 2. Norway 🇳🇴 🐺 🍌 3. Iceland 🇮🇸 ☀️ 4. Denmark 🇩🇰 5. Finland 🇫🇮 (unpopular opinion, I know)
My top 5 here and overall in my 40: 5: 36 Iceland 4: 25 Denmark 3: 14 Norway 2: 7 Sweden 1: 6 Finland
I agree with William here but I'll switch Iceland and Finland's positions.

No Wiwijury this year??
Honestly, I found all of the Nordic songs, except for Norway, to be fantastically _mediocre._ In fact, I found *both* Deban's and William's #1 picks to be in the indistinguishable-sounds-all-the-same basket. I always listen to the full ESC-video-playlist, in shuffle-mode, in the background while I'm working. Then I listen to it again. [I actually watch the videos, rather than listen, later.] After my 1st two random listen-throughs, the entries fall into one of 2 categories: 1. Gets my attention This has subcategories. 2. Sorry, which act are you again? The bulk of the acts fall in here. #2 are the acts that sound [to me] indistinguishable from several other acts … or worse, indistinguishable from previous _years._ Being in my Category-1 isn't necessarily positive, 'cuz there are its subcategories: 1a. What … am I _listening_ to?!?!? 1b. So annoying and/or grating that I want to shove coffee grounds into my ears. 1c. Utterly Bizarre, Completely Bugnutz, and _I love it!_ 1d. The songs I keep playing and never get tired of. Subwolfer falls into box 1c and 1d. The rest of the Nordics are deeeeeep in my category-2.
While the Nordic countries were strong overall only one managed to get in my top 10 with the others edging close by (with the exception of Finland). 1. Sweden 🇸🇪 - My 8th place 2. Iceland 🇮🇸 - My 12th place 3. Norway 🇳🇴 - My 14th place 4. Denmark 🇩🇰 - My 9th place 5. Finland 🇫🇮 - My 32nd place

Don’t think Norway will win but otherwise I COMPLETELY agree
Deban , every day i see your taste of songs are so close to me…….
I will say this.. France is not my taste this year. But i cannot say it's better compared to Iceland. Both are a complete different vibe. My top 5: . 1. Sweden, 2. Norway, 3. Finland, 4. Iceland, 5. Denmark In regards to Norway.. I personally do think the song is a gag song. But it's just well produced It's what Basement Jaxx does too (And i like their song "Back 2 the Wild" allot. Not gonna be everyone's taste.
My top 5 Nordic entries this year: 5 - Iceland 🇮🇸- Sigga, Beta Og Elin - Med Hækkandi Sol - For me this is my last by far. I mean nice harmonies and instrumentals but overall just leaves no impact for me. Really limp ballad for me. Like that it is in Icelandic though. A 6.4/10 for me and my 38th. 4 - Finland 🇫🇮 - The Rasmus - Jezebel - such a great instrumental but vocals really lack right now. The lyrics are good but I do not really have any feelings for them. An 8.4/10 for me, my 20th. 3 - Norway 🇳🇴 - Subwoolfer - Give That Wolf A Banana - so iconic and catchy. The dance is also so easy to grasp and I have even done a TikTok on it. My 8th overall, a 9.5/10. 2 - Denmark 🇩🇰- Reddi - The Show - just so energetic and I love the song’s lyrics and structure, so underrated by the fandom. Personally a 9.8/10 my 5th place overall. 1 - Sweden 🇸🇪 - Cornelia Jakobs - Hold Me Closer. A 10/10 emotional masterpiece my 3rd overall.
I agree with William, Cornelia and Hold Me Closer is a perfect match
Where is the Semi-Final 2 running order reaction? :(
William 💗 🇸🇪

OMG I love the Drama! 100% agree more with William tho. Also, why is everyone ranking Denmark so low!?!? It's so good! 1. Sweden (5/5) 2. Denmark (4.5/5) 3. Norway (4.5/5) 4. Finland (3/5) 5. Iceland (2.5/5)
Deban‘s taste ❤️ Finland ftw
My top 5) 5) Finland 4) Iceland 3) Denmark 2) Norway 1) Sweden
11:00 so debatable on many levels👀
My Top: 5.- Finland (not my thing) 4.- Denmark (kinda fades into the background) 3.- Norway (iconic and interesting, but the song alone isn't that captivating for me) 2.- Iceland (THE underrated gem of the year) 1.- Sweden (perfect electropop ballad, vulnerable, great vocals...)

I think Sweden can win. I really love Finland too but I don't think that it can win unfortuntely. Norway is fun and well produced but I'm unsure about the potential for victory. Iceland and Denmark are out I think.
