Comment- This is a really good song. I remember listening to it at first and just loving it. It is a simple song, however I find it to be massively effective and catchy. He's got good vocals, not that strong live, I feel like he could majorly benefit from having a backing track which is allowed this year but yeah this was certainly enjoyable!

Comment- This song has grown on me. If I wrote this review 2 weeks I would be completely ripping it apart but it is just such a catchy song. She kills this live and I think that she has a good chance at getting top 4. I don't understand how she's last in betting odds.

Comment- Now. The live version of this lifts it a bit but god I don't want to be preached at for three minutes straight, put some effort into your lyrics instead of using the same bloody cringy words we hear year after year. This is a James Bond reject and I am really disappointed because I do really like Rein and loved his song last year One Last Breath. This is such a downgrade and Raylee should've took his pass to the final.

Comment- This has zero memorability to it. Every time I listen to this song it still feels like I haven't listened to it before because I have literally forgotten what the lyrics is and the song in general is a snoozefest. I personally don't think this should've got a gold pass.

Comment- I don't really understand why this got the gold pass to the final, I just don't connect with it maybe because it's in Norwegian but I did hear he's changing it to English and if that's true then I have no hope with it as we all know what happens when artists change their songs from native language to English, it normally ends up not doing well. Yeah I'll be on the toilet when this song is on.
