 Denmark to bring the Faroese flavour in  Bilbao
 Denmark Radio (DR) can announce their representative for the upcoming 44th edition of the Northvision Song Contest held in Bilbao, hosted by Radio and Television of Andorra (RTVA). Denmark will again send a singer already familiar with the Northvision stage. After winning the 31st edition of Dansk Melodi Grand Prix, Denmark will be sending …
Eivør

The 41 year old Syðrugøta-born critically acclaimed singer will be representing Denmark in the upcoming contest, making her the first  Faroe Islands born singer to represent Denmark in the contest. However, she is not the first act to represent Denmark with Faroese descent, the first being   Aura Dione. Again, she is no stranger to the Northvision Song Contest, representing her native Faroe Islands in editions, #21 (“Í Tokuni"), #29 (“Nothing Less Nothing More” (with  Tom Hodge) and #34 (“Let It Come”), placing top 6 twice. Since her last participation in the contest, she has released music for the movie and series The Last Kingdom: The Destiny is All and has recently released 10th solo studio album, Enn, this year. Her younger sister Elinborg also won the most recent edition of the NVSC spin off contest, Nordisk Melodi Grand Prix, with her song “Í Verju Tíni”.
In Bilbao, she’ll be performing her DMGP 31 winning song "Hugsi Bert Um Teg” (English Translation: Still Just You). The track is the second single from her most recent studio album Enn and is an art-pop and synth-pop ballad spoken in her native Faroese tongue. The song discusses about Eivør’s experience of heartbreak. The entry is also the first time that Denmark is sending a Faroese language entry in the contest.
Denmark in the Northvision Song Contest #44 Eivør - “Hugsi Bert Um Teg”Lyrics: Eivør & Tróndur Bogason
Lyrics:
Svøvnleysa náttin
Er nú aftur her
Komin at vitja meg
Enn einaferð
Heimleysur longsul
Floymir inn um hurðagátt
Fyllir tøgnina
Nú í nátt
Tímarnir hanga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
Men eg hugsi bert um teg
Larmandi býður
Og eg gangi inn í
Mannamúgvur
Vinir eg ei havi sæð í langa tíð
Dansi í náttini
Tíðin hongur
Men enn er tað bara tú
Í mínum tonkum
Tímarnir hanga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
Men eg hugsi bert um teg
Eg eri fangað
Tú hevur kastað gand á meg
Dagarnir ganga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
English Translation (provided by Eivør herself):
The sleepless nightfall
is back once more
Come to visit me
Been here before
A homeless yearning
seeps under my bolted door
Fills the silence
Back for more
The hours are dragging
and all I think about is you
The world is ending
still all I think about is you
Ear-splitting city
and I stumble upon
packs of people
Friends I haven’t seen far too long
Dance in the starless night
Time is dragging
And there is only you
on my fevered mind
The hours are dragging
and all I think about is you
The world is ending
but all I think about is you
Trapped and spiralling
You have cast a spell on me
Days are ticking by
And all I think about is you
all I think about is you
all I think about is you
all I think about is you
The delegation wishes her the best of luck in the contest. You can also stream Eivør’s recent album Enn (2024) below.DMGP #31 Results:

 | How far will Armenia get in Bilbao? |
The wait has now come to an end. After several weeks of casting and searching for the grand successor of our beloved Anette and Albert Boyadjian,  Armenia is proud to announce the next big hope for the North Vision Song Contest, and it's an old new celebrity. Ladies and gentlemen, proudly present Lucy!
Introducing Lusine Aghabekyan, known to her fans as Lucy, an Armenian singer and songwriter who is making waves in the music industry. Born in 1990 in the quaint village of Kamaris, Lucy's journey in music began early and has been marked by dedication and talent. She honed her craft at the prestigious Yerevan Komitas State Conservatory, where she developed the skills that have led to her success today.
In the late 2000s, Lucy burst onto the scene with her participation in several high-profile contests, including "Hay Superstar" (the Armenian version of "Pop Idol") and "The Golden Voice". These competitions showcased her incredible vocal abilities and paved the way for her future in music.
The North Vision community knows Lucy well, remembering her compelling performances in previous editions of the North Vision Song Contest. In NVSC #19, she captivated audiences with her song "Turn Around", securing 20th place in the Grand Final. She returned in NVSC #22 with "Best of Me", narrowly missing an automatic qualification by just one point.

The song delves into the emotional journey of a person who has ended a painful relationship.
