It's 2024 - this song is TWENTY years old, and I still like to revisit it every year. Beautiful melody, performed exquisitely.
This song really did not deserve the last place.
No, Romania did.
One of the most beautifully crafted melodies in the history of ESC..And definitively the most criminally UNDERRATED...
It was definitely the mostunder-rated song in 2004. There was some real crap in 2004....and yet this did so bad. I would have had it at least top 5, maybe even top 3.
I've listened to this song every year, ahead of ESC, and I think to myself no way this deserved last place. Should have finished higher.
After years i'm coming back to this one
2021 and i still love it 🙌🙌🙌
Injustice, this deserved top 10 at least. Beautifully sung (the backings are amazing) and a wonderful song with a strong message. It was my fav back then and still is, love it.
Agreed. I'm still feeling a little bit ashamed of the results for Sørum if you think that Shake it mi amor (Sakis Rouvas/Greece) went 3rd place. Is it a Song Contest or Fab-Ab contest?
Casto Ono I agree, it is HottieVision not Eurovision in this case - however I always found Scandinavian guys like Knut more sexy than this Greek guy who has reached top 10 twice only because of his looks.
ESC stands for Eurovision Show Contest now.....
Linda Kristine Kjørlibråten l
yes. A lot of songs were shitty that year. And this is beautiful. So how did it happen?
after many years - this haunted me this morning :) so beautiful !! i loved this one ..and i still do
This was my favorite song from 2004. How this quality music becomes last place is incomprehensible to me.
It was very forgettable.
@@jutjubow to me winner 2004 is forgettable
@@jutjubow not for me 🤷🏼♀️😊
I still don't understand how this great song could finish last. Goodness knows there was a lot of actual garbage in the 2004 final that deserved that placing far more.
I was at the eurovision that night in Istanbul, still can't understand why this came last 😕
My favourite song of our last places. Great and simple entry!
@Jesper Hjellnes me too
I don't undersand the last position for this amazing performance and song !
The traditional muzic of western Europe and Nordic cauntry, just magic
Yet no western or nordic voted for him?
I swear this is good
This really got the last place??It's not bad at all and there were many worse songs than this one..
yes. very last. 3 points.
Βικη Αποστολοπουλου more than 90% were worse
It's never the worst song that places last! (Well, usually.)
Europe is definitely deaf - I remember being very angry when this came last, should be in top 10 (or at least top 15)
thanks. we weren't in the best mood here in Norway either.
I can certainly understand that - great song and a very strong singer!
Karsten Holst Thomsen Thank you! Well, this was 13 years ago. Last autumn he took part in Stjernekamp and sang a Eurovision winner: Euphoria!! That song nearly blew the air out of him! And so did the opera part: Nessun Dorma.
In those days it was about the SONG and the MUSIC - not about all the hoohaah going on behind the singer... or....are we just getting old?? No, can't be....!!
Karsten Holst Thomsen Tastes are different! This year hasn't lots of it! So it's just left to see who is up on stage with the pocal on night to the 14th of May or early morning the,14th would be more correct English I think!!!
Beautiful
i'm loving it! back than and now.
some parts of this song sound so much like circle of life from lion king
This song was one of my favorites that year! Definitely not last place worthy! One of my favorite Norwegian entries! Unpopular Opinion: Better than Fairytale!
Just 3 points from Sweden and finishing bottom .
Yeah i don't get that at all .
Solid song , performance, voice and they look great together ❤ deffo my 1st of 2004 , Belgium right up there too another brilliant song .
If there was any song in the 21st Century that _should not have been_ last place, if you ask me, this would be it. Sørum's voice was strong, and the song's composition was endearing. Part of me wants to see him return to Eurovision and outdo himself.
The best song! from 2004! omg i can't believe :( LAST PLACE! SHAME ON YOU EUROPE!:?
Did not deserve last place.
WHY DID THIS SONG FINISH THE CONTEST IN LAST PLACE? It has a really beautiful sound and may be the best last place song in the Eurovision Song Contest in the last 25 years (except 2020). It's a beautiful song and it definitely didn't deserve to be the last one. Greetings from Turkey to Norway. 🇹🇷 🇳🇴
I can't believe that Romania,Bosnia & Herzegovina & Russia got a better ranking than this great song!!
Such a shame,it didn't deserve the last place.
and The Netherlands.....
*High*
Lyrics:
I have tried every way
To get to the heart of your soul
'Cause everything that you deny
Could be there if you let me know
I wanna heal every wound in you
To finally make you believe
High, over the rain
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain
I always try holding your heart
Bringing you high
Try to make you see the light
When sorrow grows deep in your mind
And seize the day, not asking why
There is so much for you to find
I wanna bring you the wings to fly
To never be broken again
Oh… high (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I always try (try), holding your heart (holding your heart)
Bringing you high (bringing you so high)
I just wanna open your closing mind
Your life can't be worth all your sacrifice
There is a light over you
Please let it through (let it through)
High (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I always try (try), holding your heart (holding your heart)
Bringing you high (bringing you high)
Oh… (bringing you high)
High (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I alwayѕ try (try), holding your heart (holding your heаrt)
Bringing you high (bringing you high)
Bringing you high
21st century most wtf last places: Denmark 2002, Norway 2004, Finland 2009, Norway 2012, Ireland 2013
Austria 2015, Portugal 2018 & United Kingdom 2019
Norway 2012 didn't deserve even to qualify but agree for the rest
@@xxxxxxxx8634 True
Last place ? WTF with this edition ?
It's kinda anonymous and plain, but nowhere near being last for me. Bosnia, Romania, Russia or Poland should have been last.
Knut Anders is in another final now: Stjernekamp! The final is next Saturday.
Which he won, easily! :-D
Yes, I suppose so! No vote casting Sms only. And he won.
I've thought that ever since the night of the final.
For the success in Eurovision, vocals should sound strong and clear, preferably in high pitch.
Canción muy bonita, quizá nada extraordinaria pero desde luego solvente.
Tema estupendo, sonido envolvente y estribillo pegadizo, tal vez muy cool.
Knut Anders Sørum es mono, no canta mal, su look informal y desenvuelto.
Su puesto trigésimo quinto con 3 Puntitos de mierda es algo muy injusto!!!
Escuchar los primeros acordes y pensar, me acuerdo de ella! 10 Puntazos!
Super!!!! :-****
Muy buen tema,gran balada¡
I still don't understand why this was last as there was much worse that year (hello The Netherlands, Romania, Poland and Russia). Great vocals and a very anthemic song.
It was very boring and unremarkable. Just yet another vanilla ballad that you quickly forget.
@@jutjubow tattoo 🥱
Cute song tho💖
So young an that good❤❤❤
Why did it come last? One of the best underrated entries in the Eurovision history!
You may ask Europe about this. I voted for it in Norway, could do nothing in Eurovision since I am Norwegian!!!! But all in Europe could say: It's a top 10 song, but I like this and that better and vote for those songs. Maybe that's how it works. But Knut Anders is a happy man now, soon to release his new album. Besides taking part in Stjernekamp, which is mentioned! All fans of him could follow him there on RUclips or Nrk1 every Saturday, if you could recieve NRK 1 where you live!! He is just awesome!'##Stjernekamp.
@@lindakristinekjrlibraten5759 The song was extremely boring.
@@jutjubow and you're extremely trollish
I love this song, but the sound through the mic is really weird! That might have led to the last place.
you could compare it to the Norwegian final. Try Melodi Grand Prix 2004 High, Knut Anders Sørum.
Such a cute guy
+Joanna Sowoska. Knut Anders is a nice chap from Skreia, from the district of eastern Toten some miles from Gjøvik where parts of the Olymic games of 1994 took place. Toten does also belong to the district of Mjøsa, the largest lake of Norway. It's not accually the same as Athens and the Mediterranian sea. Forgive me my spelling. But does it really matter where you come from???
Песня класс
Dat suit doe
My first time was with this guy
he brought him high
Congratulations
3 points? All from sweden? :)
yes. 3 points «dressed» in yellow and blue.....
24 место
Hi
What happened at 1:17? "your mind" repeated, and audio/video sync fails.
I don't know???
Way better than wild dances
I'm here after another undeserved last place in 2024
he looks a little bit like jahn teigen
Отлично поет! Уж точно не хуже этого Киркоровского друга - голубка Сакиса!!!
Am i the only one who hears "Circle of life"?
Eeyup, there are some similarities.
echo ;)
Pas dégueu
This doesnt deserve last at all wtf what happened to the nordic block? Lol
The Nordic block is the others voting for Sweden, not the other way around.
I'm NOT patriotic.This song is soooo boooring zzzz....
TerjeTungrock I'm not patriotic either. I've loved this from the start. You must be a Lordi fan.......
ha ha definitivt ikke.Men er i metalgata ja ;) Og hører på mye annet rart! Men denne er gørrkjedelig.Ikke rart det ble 3 poeng og sisteplass.... ;)
TerjeTungrock Mer Wig wam kanskje????? Uansett han vant nå Stjernekamp fortjent og hadde det vært metall der hadde han tatt det også på strak arm. Jern, betong og stål også!
Helt sikkert.Ser ikke på stjernekamp,men han er en kjempegod vokalist.Det er låta jeg ikke liker å det er en annen sak.Det betyr ikke at artisten er dårlig ;)
Han er helt fantastisk!!! Du så ikke Stjernekamp. Da gikk du glipp av noe!!! Men det er MIN smak og erfaring. Du må gjøre din egen! Det er på youtube. Fritt fram!
Very dull and lame.
