in my opinion Hold on be strong was absolutely the best song in ESC for a long long time.

Honestly I don’t get why people like this song so much.
For me it was just….boring, nothing special, I felt no emotions from it. It was just….weak. If that’s the correct way to express it.
And the lyrics are really boring too. They’re nothing special at all. Not the hardest ones to write probably. I don’t know why I feel like this about it really, no offence I didn’t mean to insult anyone by this so please just don’t get offended by it.
I just can’t feel that she means what she’s singing and I don’t really find the lyrics anything special either. Usually I don’t have to understand the lyrics though. It just feels like a normal song text for some reason which could have been written by any singer and/or songwriter. It feels like a too normal, common song, one of those that maybe could be played on the radio (and it has been played on the radio here in Sweden too)and I normally hate almost all songs that are being played their these days. I am born 1992 but I really dislike most modern music (modern music in the western world that is)these days. But oh well maybe my taste is just completely weird.
I also have mentioned a lot of times that I prefer songs in native languages cause I don’t have to understand the lyrics as long as I can get the feeling of the song and I also like to hear other foreign languages but well I don’t really know if that’s a big reason. Norwegian is really similar to my native language Swedish anyway..

Definitively one of the biggest ballads of ESC this year, She did it so much better in the ESC night that in the festival where she got selected (judging for the video)…Excellent singer and her performance was sweet and clean. Deserved the position she got…Good for Norway!

Finals
Song 25
The final song.
Norway has the biggest number of last places on Eurovision and the country had zero points four times but I don’t think it’s going to be the case this time.
