Btw. aren't they obliged to sing everything in Icelandic in all shows? Because (at least as much as I remember) I checked a few songs (live versions) that were in last years selection and heard English parts in some songs.

In the semi finals, you must sing in Icelandic.
But if you manage to qualify to the finals, you can decide if you want to sing in english or icelandic.
