1. Davíð Þorsteinn Olgeirsson – In your dreams

The singer, who is playing the piano again, looks a bit different, a bit more modern and a bit younger. The song still sounds like Beach Boys, Beatles and Amy Winehouse at a time. Nevertheless a catchy but old-fashioned song that would probably look a bit out of place in the Eurovision Song Contest.

2. Bjartur Guðjónsson – The girl in the golden dress

The outfits are better than in the semi final and has dropped the James Bond theme. The song is still very catchy and has a nice hookline, but unfortunately, the vocals are not better than in the qaurter final. Nevertheless, this one is likely to reach the final. Overall, it's a bit in a 1920 swing style, very interesting arrangement.

3. Baggalútur – Hvað var það sem þú sást í honum?

The song title means What did you see in him? and some people might ask what the televoters saw in that song when they sent it to the semi finals. The band looks completely different tonight, more modern actually – like in the 1960s. Overall a better entry without the cowboy theme, also thanks to the new arrangement.

Now we have to wait for the results.
