This will go down as one of Eurovision's most impeccable vocals. I don't think people appreciate enough how on point she is, she hits all those difficult notes perfectly and seemingly with ease!
Love you Iceland, Switzerland

Is it wrong to say that I honestly like this more than "Fairytale"? 10 years later and this still blows be away.

Please Iceland!!! Send Yohanna again to eurovision!!

[Marie_Karalyunas]

Знаете... Вот уже прошло наверное 14-15 лет с тех пор... А эту песню очень часто гоняют по радио семь. ни одну песню с Евровидения так часто я не слышу, как ее... И Знаете, что это значит?.. Знаете..)) Лучшая песня! Всех времен) Как чисто спето, все так... прям мед и масло по всей душе... спасибо за такой талант и удивительно чистое исполнение!

This is with no doubt one of the best songs in eurovision history, if not the best overall❤

[markusandersson]

Her only mistake was too sing it in 2009, the same year as Alexander Rybak. Otherwise it would have won!

[theooikom]

Maybe the best song in the Eurovision contest ever.

[jausephry]

This song triggers so much within me. I remember this song playing in my head whenever I met my crush of that time.
I love this song. I hope Yohanna will return to Eurovision at some point. Love and greetings from Germany <3

Сколько лет прошло, сколько конкурсов, сколько победителей и проигравших, хитов и песен на один раз, а эта девочка врезалась в память. Прекрасная песня.

[NicholasBykov]

If she wasn't up against Rybkak that year, i'm sure she would've won

[annakobuk]

A timeless ballad. Still played by some radiostations across Europe.

The special Effects on the background makes this song so Dreamy ...

[xLondon]

Still to this day my alltime favourite ballad in Eurovision. Her voice gives me chills! 😍😍😍

[mdcb]

Live version is actually better than the studio version

[Inselostfriese]

What a woman, what a voice, a great song! Greetings from Germany!
