He actually recognized 10 years that was played in a clothing store and he said: "put the video on" and the song was playing for a few seconds 😂 We are from Romania, by the way.
    Wish you all the best and can't wait for new music. Love the sound, the chemistry, you are such lovely people! My favorites in 2021 Eurovision.

      What he meant not competing again is about the national final. He said that when he was asked if he would compete again if Iceland decides to have a Selection Show for 2021. The question came up because all other Nordic countries already announced that they'll have Selection Show for 2021 while Iceland, at that time, still hasn't confirmed anything yet. :)
