THE 12 SONGS THAT DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE 2023 NORWEGIAN FINAL – SONG 10

 

It may seem that the longer it has been since you won, the less chance you have of another success.

Several people experienced this this year and our friend Stig was one of them, but it must be said that he only had a 19% chance of qualifying according to those who care about such things.

He played music close to his musical heart and for me this was a great musical moment from an artist with something on his mind.

He can sing with power and this swings his way, if you ask me.

However, it is very possible that this was too exotic one evening in a January-cold Norway for us and that he had another song with an African touch to listen to to compete against hardly helped either.

Then his song probably didn’t get enough exposure and then you quit when the competition is as tough as it was this evening.
