~~~ Lyrics ~~~
I'm ready to let you go
Won't hold you back no more
Go on spread your wings and fly away
Been carrying you way to long
Like an obsession
I thought you were a living part of me
But I got my power in my hand
You hold no power over me
I’ll take my flowers while I can
So let the love shower over me
You hold no p-p-p-power over me
I'm not doing this dance again
So goodbye old friend
Tired of finding meaning in the dark
I'm releasing all of you
In gratitude
Replacing you with light that fills my heart
But I got my power in my hand
You hold no power over me
I’ll take my flowers while I can
So let the love shower over me
You hold no p-p-p-power over me
I’ll take my flowers while I can
So let the love shower over me
You hold no p-p-p-power over me

can't believe THIS didn't qualify. What an amazing performance!
it is true
Better than Belgium for example.
@@Lorvina1 no i love belgium but maybe 2 (im from icleand)
i swear people just have something against iceland at this point we never get any support
@@madeline17484 jeg er seriøst sjokkert
I loved Iceland, so sad it didn't qualify. Would've loved to hear it again in the final. Amazing vocals!😢
Same :( I even voted for her
my favorite performance tonight.... but in the name of democracy votes this should be ok! cheer up!😀
1:14 the leg raised makes me think of the Joker dancing scene
my fav song TOP1 THIS YEAR Iceland 🇮🇸
This is my fav this year! I literally memorized the entire song! Love from UK 🇬🇧❤️🇮🇸
I am SO SAD, that such masterpiece didn’t make it to the Grand Finale.. Iceland, please, remember that your song is amazing and people are in love with it 🙏
Ty
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Unfortunately they had to leave some room for generic crap like what Poland brought to the table
🇧🇪❤
Apparently not enough people.😂 It was fully televotes. It's her fault, this isn't "the voice". It's Eurovision. Having a crappy staging with an incredible voice isn't enough.
SHE HAD SUCH AN PHENOMENAL PERFORMANCE, EUROPE WHERE ARE YOUR EARS!? 😭❤️🇮🇸
some people really listen with their dicks instead of ears I guess
Look at the final result, jury's ears are definitely gone. I don't understand why Loreen had so many points
my fav song TOP1 THIS YEAR Iceland 🇮🇸
@@puck9445 there was only televote in the semi, viewers were no better
@@puck9445 This was the televoters doing. They arguably didn't have ears as they didn't put this through (I also liked Romania for singing clean).
BEST VOICE OUT OF ALL THE COUNTRIES, THIS SHOULDVE GOTTEN THROUGH WTF
SERIOUSLY I DON'T UNDERSTAND
i swear people just have something against iceland at this point we never get any support
@@madeline17484 you have my support! Love from Britain, this was my favourite.
@@madeline17484 I voted for her, I thought she was so strong, passionate and energetic. Bless her she deserved to go through 🌷💐
@irishulda2169 love from England to Iceland I have always had a soft spot for as I have great grandparents from Iceland :)
I’m absolutely GUTTED that this didn’t make it through tonight. My jaw dropped. Love from your neighbor Norway 🇳🇴
🇮🇸❤️🇳🇴
Heilt enig ❤
I TOTALLY AGREE Love from Australia
tysm, your song is amazing as well
Her vocals were just AMAZING, she really deserved to qualify, still so proud of her! 😭❤️
Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:
"We love life, not because we are used to living but because we are used to loving"
~ Friedrich Nietzsche
I keep wondering how a country with a population of a city can give so many talented artists to the world. It's almost like every second person is super talented there. This song was my fav this year❤
I think about this constantly! They even made the World Cup once!
This was my favourite. I was rooting for you guys to be in the finals. Sad to see you go home, but you did GREAT. Those vocals were on point.
Mine toooooo! Unbelievable! What a vocalist! Shivers… ❤️
Iceland always sends amazing entries.All alone she had more energy than all the others.
Deserved much better
ROBBED 😢 I voted for her
Still listening to this song till this day :")
❤
HOW DID POLAND QUALIFIED INSTEAD OF THIS MASTERPIECE???!!! Sending love for Diljá and Iceland, from a Polish folk ❤️❤️❤️
I ask myself the same question. The song from Poland is the sort of tune that plays on some radio stations repeatedly addressed to superficial people. However I wouldn't say the song from Iceland is a masterpiece. No way.
The thing is there were even worse songs than Polish but you cannot notice that because you are obviously Pole so it is the easiest way to spit on your own country, our national speciality. Apart from that song from Island was not worse than Tattoo.
@@korneliuszzych6165 so, from the songs that qualified, the Polish one was the lamest and even though the performance was better than everyone expected, it doesn't make it more worthy than any other song that qualified or Iceland's
I'm from Bolivia and I can understand your pain since the national finals, Polish friends. I was shocked and enraged Dilja and Iru (who has been seen crying broken after the announcement) were not in the finals but Solo somehow did. 😢 (And checking the Semi 2 televote results, it is tragic)
Sending love to Poland, Georgia and Iceland from Bolivia ❤❤
Disagree, it was bad but sad thing is there were a few worse like Serbia, Croatia
I am speechless how did she not make it into the finals.
i swear people just have something against iceland at this point we never get any support
@@madeline17484 remember 2021?
@@madeline17484
No one’s against Iceland. I think people just voted for other songs they liked. I love icelands song but I have to admit the song is a bit bland compared to others. I wish she had a song that showcased her voice better because she is an amazing vocalist
@@marina6833 yes i do
@@madeline17484 We love Iceland in Britain. I voted 5x for her. It wasn't enough. Still the best song of the night. ❤IS
Her vocals and stage presence are something else. Iceland can be extremely proud of her!
one of the best performances in the semi-finals. I can't believe she didn't make it to the grand final. Big support Dilja
This was my favorite from tonight's show. I can't believe Iceland didn't qualify. Poland qualified instead of this number.. It's unbelievable
I know what you mean. Their vocals are completely different. Diljá has her own style, strong voice and she is
original! She sets the paths that other artists should be inspired by.
Poland's a meme, literally the only reason why
Jestem z Polski i uwierz mi że też bym wolała zobaczyć Iceland w finale a nie Polskę
And a few other weak songs like Serbia, Croatia and so on.
It’s because there was no juries in the Semis
Such an underrated entry. And the vocals are outstanding, hope Iceland qualifies❤
😢💔
i had no hope (from an icelander)
Her voice and energy are everything ❤️. She is authentic, genuine and true to herself. I would love to see her qualify.
How is it possible that this girl didn't get in?? Amazing song, amazing voice, and this extraordinary energy! Love from Poland ❤️❤️❤️
I still love this song! Greetings from Croatia! ❤🎉
It's unfair that you’re not in the final. You deserve it! And for me you was the best this evening.
You have incredible voice. And the performance was amazing.
Thank you so much, the song is in my playlist.
With love from Ukraine 💜
I totally agree with you 🇺🇦🇮🇸
This song not qualifying is the reason we need juries
@@HailTheHordes PREACH
Still listening to this after Eurovision, crazy it didn't qualify.
WHAT THE HELL 😢
HOW THIS POWERFULL AND AMAZING SONG DID NOT PASS TO THE GREAT FINAL?
It was robbed. Im really sorry ICELAND ❤ love from Portugal 🇵🇹🇮🇸
so true
She shud have won❤
Diljá is the example of an artist, that sounds A LOT better irl than recording. Incredible.
She shud have won😂❤❤❤❤❤
This one not only deserved to go to semi final but she deserved to win this year! This song is so so underrated😔 its so sad! I will blast this in the car for the next 2 months. Much love from Romania 🇷🇴
This girl is on fire 🔥
This is a MASTERPIECE!!😍😍😍 Such a strong, powerful performance and a song that gives POWER to all who listens. Love this. Big thank you from Poland 🇵🇱❤🇮🇸
ABSOLUTE WINNER
I can't believe that Iceland didn't go to the finals. So strong vocals, performance, and message!/lyrics! We couldn't vote from Finland this. Iceland should have make it to finals. I am sorry. This is amazing. Best wishes from Finland!
i swear people just have something against iceland
@@madeline17484 or strong women (literally)
@@f1ll3rn FRR
They should just let everyone vote in both semifinals at this point. Without juries countries will vote for their neighbours as usual and Iceland didn't have a change when all of its neighbours were in the other semifinal
@@f1ll3rn exacly this. I feel that feminine men are more accepted than masculine women
What ?! Why ?! It was my second place in my TOP 10…. I love it this !
Amazing performance and vocals even though she didn't make the finals. It's still the best song of the night. ❤ Iceland should feel proud.
She shud have won❤❤❤❤
The girl had the time of her life on stage and we had it with her. :)🌺
This is the one I voted for, Europe we have here THE MOST CHARISMATIC SINGER OF THE EDITION, please dont let it go🥺🥺 VOTE 07🇮🇸!!! All the support from spain dilja🇪🇸🫶🏽
She should have got to the final!! She was robbed
This was the best of this competition, how could it stay out??? Outrageous
my winner ❤
This is what we need juries for. Best voice of all the performers.
This was the best song in this contest this year, how she is not going to the final 😮😢 unbelievable….
i thought so too
The best song ❤😢
This was the performance from both semi finals. Should been in the finals instead of Poland
She's the main character how they let her go
Diljá, don’t be discouraged. You were one of the best today.
In top 3 for sure. Great injustice to this girl
she deserve to be in the final!!! such a talented girl, im done! she killed it.
Time to cry myself to sleep. Thank you so much Europe (and Australia) (and rest of the world). Diljá you're and absolute legend and what you did on stage tonight was magic!
Zgadzam się.. moim zdaniem piosenka na 1. miejsce w finale!
3 months later, it's fun how Dilja managed to keep her vocals stable while dancing vigorously.
Dude she did freaking BACKFLIP while singing, this is insane
Georgia and Iceland are the countries that deserved to be in the final. Your songs are better than at least 10 songs that made it to the finals and your songs will be played on the radio after this. Greetings from Serbia
The best song in the second Semi-Final🏆, with love from Ukraine!
We were number 11 in the semi! (44 points, Estonia were next with 74). That's a comfort, Diljá got us that close, at least. Way to go, Diljá! ❤️🇮🇸
Estonia was so much better than this and you and Estonia have been 30 points of difference 💀
This was my favorite!!! So sad to see that this wont be in the final. You where amazing!!!!❤❤❤❤ lots of love
Unpopular opinion: This was in my top 10 and at least deserved to qualify. The only flaw in my opinion was messy staging.
If this is an unpopular opinion we are in problem
I'm so sorry that this did not qualify. It's such a strong song. I love it and I will surely come back to it again and again and again. As a person with anxiety I really resonate with the lyrics. Thank you, Dilija ! You've shined some light over us ! I wish you all the best!
Stunning performance, full of energy, best vocals of tonights semi final! Diljá is an amazing artist. I’ve voted for you guys and I’m so sad that Iceland didn’t make it through the grand final 🇬🇷🇮🇸 One of the most unfair semifinals!
she definitely nailed it. the way she carried the whole performance with her energy, you could see it in her eyes! too sad she didn't qualify. it was definitely my favourite in the semi-final
Can't believe this didn't pass... Such an amazing song
Cannot believe she didn’t go through! She was my absolute favourite along with Georgia which also didn’t go through. So sorry! :((
I’m so sad she didn’t qualify, incredible song & vocals! ✨ will be playing this on repeat! Much love from Belgium ❤️
You are a next-level performer Diljá. I hope this doesn’t dampen your love of performing and singing - you are clearly meant to do both 💙🇮🇸
The best vocals of all participants
Found her song on spotify after the final. I absolutely adore it!
It was the best voice ESC 2023! Im listening over and over 😊 Greetings from Poland😊❤
It's so extremely weird that Iceland didn't qualify 🤷♀️ there were songs not as clean as this one but did qualify.. like wtf😅 she's definitely one of the best! ❤
I used all my votes on this song. She’s just so amazing. I can’t believe this didn’t make it to the finals. It doesn’t feel fair. Seems like Iceland never gets the credit it deserves. But I’m a fan and I’ll keep listening to this song on repeat. Lots of love from from Denmark 🇩🇰 ❤
Looks like a lot of Danes voted for her! Denmark gave her 12 points in the semi finals
She's an amazing performer! And her voice 🥰🥰🥰
Say what you want about the juries, but remember the Televote is to blame for this masterpiece not making it to the final
There is no explanation that Poland is in the final and Iceland is not, this smells strange. Voting is to get money and it should be done by a professional jury. The performance has been really powerful and gives off positive vibes, greetings from 🇪🇸 Icelanders, I'm sorry.
Jestem tego samego zdania.Pozdrawiam z Polski
I cant believe it didn't qualify. amazing voice and song ! 12 points from Israel :)
12 points now diverted to Finland?
Very nice song and great performance! Very emotional as well! Vote from Armenia to Iceland!😍 🇦🇲❤️🇮🇸
Diljá, you will ALWAYS be loved ❤
This song was the best. Soo beautiful voice, great performance, I can't belive it 😢💔 greatings from Poland🇵🇱 we love you 😙😙😙
The best song ❤😢
This was hands down the best performance of the night. Europe did Iceland dirty 😭
I will never understand how Finland or Poland qualified over this
The outfit, the stunts, the kicks, the energy, the voice ❤❤ she did great
A year later and I'm still mourning the fact that she didn't make it into the finals. Such a strong, amazing voice and nice song. Loved it
That flip alone shoulda qualified her. I said it the day of and I'll say it several months later
Her energy in this song yet still holding onto that powerful voice is just, MWAH chefs kiss💋
A final without her won't be worth watching.
BLOWN AWAY!! I havent seen this before, because it was nowhere near the top with the bookies… HOW?! This is so so underrated!
Who let poland qualify and who didn't let this qualify
i’m still mad this didn’t get into the final. defo my fave
"Musical brilliance" beyond words. Nobody can explain.......Wow.
Favourite of all the songs ❤
Byłaś najlepsza!!! Piekny głos, cudowna energia ❤ Wszystkiego dobrego! Pozdrowienia z Polski ❤
Dokładnie była najlepsza.. pytanie dlaczego nie przeszli? Jak dla mnie 1. miejsce dla Islandii bez dwóch zdań
Też tak myślę
This was a strong performance. Nobody expected this to qualify with the televote so Iceland should be proud of 11th
Yeah, that's true!! And 44 points, that's more than Serbia in semi-final 1 in 10° place with 37 points
Such a shame! I want you to know that alot of us europeans really appreciated Iceland this year ❤
how much energy does she have?
Don't know. She is incredible!
Absolutely criminal that this didn't qualify
SHE HAVE THE MOST POWERFUL VOICE I EVER HEARD IN EUROVISION I SWEAR!!!!!!! 🇷🇸❤🇮🇸ITS SAD THAT SHE WAS NOT IN FINAL. But she is mine winner! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much for this song ❤
This is hard year and I needed this song ❤
the best technicaly performance in the whole eurovision contest - full of feelings, emotions, musicality and incredible voice
She's such a sweetheart. I hope to see her in a Eurovision final at some point.
Love and greetings from Germany
This is such a great song - I had it right near the end of my playlist for the 2024 Liverpool half marathon. It was incredible at helping me dig into my final energy reserves to get across that finish line without giving up. Thank you Diljá ❤
❤❤❤
Love Iceland from Greece 🇬🇷
tatoo and power is my favourite song from eurovision 2023
This was so P-P-P-Powerful 💛💛💛
Top song really! Greatings from Slovenia 👍🤘🤙🇸🇮
she deserved to be in the finale
She was awesome. iceland is a country with highest music talent per capita
This song is my winner ❤
It’s Svala 2017 all over again for Iceland 😭😭
She deserves final 💛💙
So sad and actually shocked to not see this song in the finals, it would’ve been so deserved :(
"If this was Sweden it would be a lock for a top 10" pt. 137
This performance gives me chills everytime, she´s such a wonderwoman
This song is a real power! Its a pity that Dilja don't enter to final.😢
