Shame, but as predicted it felt weak and forgettable, to be honest, I forgot the performance very quickly.

His crying at the end melted my heart. It brought me to tears tbh. For a second I wished he qualified. :(
Come back Ari, next year. You are the personality of this year!

Amazing Performance, great vocals. Sadly he cant turn crap into gold. I hope this gifted young man will one day return with a more competitive song

He's cute and a great singer. I also love how emotional he is. Unfortunately, the song is too old-fashioned and I expect him to be last (unless :mk: or :be: manage to outcompete him and get the title)

It looked very decent indeed, it's a shame that the song is just extremely bad. This was the only song where everyone was 100% sure that it will not qualify.


Better luck next year :is:.

Actually he does not desrve to be last! His song deserves to be last, but not his perfomarnce! Belarus and Fyrom were far worse with better songs!

It's not my cup of tea. I didn't enjoy his performance. It was monotonic.

Really hope Ari participates again one day with a modern song. He's way too pure, you cannot help but love him. If only he had a contemporary song, I would have easily voted for him.

Very charming and talented. I love his emotional reaction at the end of his performance, reminded me immediately of Zoë. Very touching. He should come back with a song from Symphonix International. I would love to see a win of Iceland. By a nation this dedicated to the whole thing, hosting affords after a win would be great, I'm sure.

Very true. Loved him too - as a singer and Person. It wasn't just the right song. I would be nice seeing him come back! :D
