Obligatory
Something a bit alternative and distant... but not as dull as Sean's suggestions.

Olafur Arnalds
God his music is beautiful. If he were to compose a song for someone, that would be just wonderful.
I'd like to see the fantabulous John Grant, who this year helped write the lyrics for Pollaponk. I gather that he now resides in Iceland.
He's so good. Usually an artist like this i'd think would never do it but he's contributed to the contest this year in a small way so who knows. He may like to take part himself. He's a bit of a joker as well so would probably enter and see the light side of it all.

great band
probably not appropriate for ESC, but I love it. there is so much yearning in this song
furthermore I think it would be consequently if Ásgeir Trausti will participate, since he is the most talented young singer in Iceland. This year he made his first steps abroad with English versions of his songs, so I think he could have his international breakthrough soon. ESC would be helpful
My favorite songs are "Dyrð i dauðaþögn" and "Leyndermál" ... He has a very sensitive and versatile voice, he can sing high-pitched sounds. I like it very much. He is surely not one of the artists who is endangered to fail because of bad voiceIn addition Of monsters and men is always good for great songs and they have international popularity
Moreover I'd like to see Þorunn Antonia performing for Iceland, especially for optical reasons
This Ásgeir guy seems pretty good too! But he seems quite successful in the Icelandic charts, would he consider it?
I swear Iceland's awesome music per capita is higher than any other country!

I would be so ecstatic if Asgeir Trausti would consider taking part, but I highly doubt he would. He is a fantastic musician, but in interviews and even on stage he is shy and doesn't like much attention. I think that Eurovision Song Contest would be a bit too much for him
I love him doing this cover of Nirvana's Heart Shaped Box, he surely did put his fingerprint on it.
Something similar to King and Cross would be just fine for the contest

Hmmm, I love everything from Olafur Arnalds, he just can't do anything wrong when it comes to music

I tweeted about Iceland's National pre-selection to Sin Fang, Olafur Arnalds, and Mum (all of whom are my favourite Icelandic artist), and so far only Sin Fang retweeted and favourited it. I hope this means something.. Well it sounds like I exaggerate it, but as a Eurovision fan, I was pretty thrilled when my favourite artist responded to my Eurovision kinda tweet..
Oh my god, Sin Fang would be wonderful! Fingers crossed

Asgeir, Mum, Sin Fang... they're damn good, but I can't really figure them on the ESC stage. I would be really surprised and thrilled if they would make it. But I don't think it will happen. I have a feeling that Iceland will rely on something milder this year, something in line with Yohanna

wow, never heard of Asgeir before i saw it here and it's really really good. I listened to some other songs of him and he is an amazing artist. I would go crazy it this would represend Iceland in eurovision, but honestly that is not the right stage for him. I think his songs will be overlooked, an i actually believe that Asgeir is too good for a contest like this.
I'm still expecting a great song from
this year like every year. They have been in my top 10 for 5 years in a row now
